Canada's Veteran Soldiers.
e Montreal Gazette.

At 2 meeting of the South African Veterans association, held in the drill hall on Saturday evening, the govern ments reply to the association's petition of January for grants of land was read. It was from thJ minister of the interior, Hon. John F. Oliver, and was to the effect that the government could not see its way clear at present to grant the prayer of the petition. The militia coun- cil, 1t is stated, strongly supported the scheme. It was, however, vetoed by the privy couDcil.
 Contrary to general public opinion what the association asked for was not a grant of 320 acres for each veteran for past military service only, but an offer was made to the government of a reserve of 5000 trained and war-seasoned men (of an average age of 32 years), for a period of 10 years, in return for the land One of the stipulations of the agreement was that except in special cases of physical or other debility the warrantees were to take up the land with the loan of $600 to start with at reasonable and protected rate of interest. The government would thus have had at call 5000 fully trained reserves of all branches of the service. This 1t Is pointed out, would have repre- sented to the country a money outlay of $640, 900 for over $4,000,000 worth of service which could not be obtained in any other way, not to speak of the colonization benefits which the country would derive through the association assisting these men to go on the land. Such scheme. the association argues, was one to stimu- late its members to profit by the agricul- tural resources of the country, and at the same time to become useful citizens and defenders of the Dominion by reason of their military training.

RAINFALL AIDS PRICES

Chicago, June 26.-An unexpected de- cline of asQ1d in the price of wheat at Liverpool caused a weak opening in the market today. initial quotations showing losses of Ac to 1aQ9sc compared with yesterdays close. The market, however, had received from the opening heaviness before the end of the first half hour, and during the remainder of the day senti- ment continued bullish. Although the sharp bulge of yesterday had temporarily checked export business, the large volume of wheat taken by foreigners the past few days acted as a tonic to the market today, and the unsettled weather in the harvest belt furnished an additional mo-
 'e for buying. Thunderstorms have pre- vailed the last three days throughout much of the winter wheat belt, and the official forecast was for continued show cry conditions. The deferred months were much stronger than the July deliv- cry, and advanced 1Ac from the low point of the session, while 1c represented the maximum gain on July, which sold dur ing the day between s1.15A and S.16A. The market closed strong with July at $1.16.
 The initial break in wheat caused slight easiness in the corn market in the start, but a firm tone soon developed which re- mained during the rest of the day The strength in wheat was the chief bullish influence, although light offerings from the country prompted some buying. Shorts were the chief buyers. The market closed firm with prices 8sc to 1a@ssc above yes terday's final figures.
 Oats were in active demand by shorts the greater part of the day, owing to possibility of damage to the oat crop as a result of prevailing unsettled weather The market was firm all day, following slight weakness at the opening due to the slump in wheat At the close prices were Aassc higher Athan the previous close.
 Provisions were inclined to be weak all day owing to 5c to 10c decline in live hogs Selling of lard was the feature of the trading, the bulk of sales being of a realizing character. Prices at the close were unchanged to 10c lower,

New Orleans Cotton Market.

New Orleans, June 26.-Cotton spots firm, 1-16c up. Middling, II %c. Sales on the spot 1925; to arrive, 1000.
 Futures opened steady, unchanged to 4 points up on the active months. Bullish crop statistics gave the mar ket an upward tendency which would have been much more marked had 1t not been for extensive realizing by long interest over Sunday. The. anticipa- ton of a bullish bureau report next Friday and the knowledge of the fact that Liverpool would remain open un- til ' p. m. to receive this information also served to stimulate bullish senti- ment and gradual advance was in evidence until the close, which was steady with the active months 13 to 16 points above the close yesterday.
 With the close of the market today heavy advances were noted during the past week. Bullish crop reports, un- favorable weather reports, anticipation of a bullish government bureau report, good spot sales and the announcement that operators who stopped 10000 or more July notices yesterday were bid- ding for more, alf combined to give the market a decidedly bullish tone. Re ports of crop conditions by states in the south Atlantic belt were decidedly .bullish and at the close of the market today the trade was found to be await ing with much interest reports on the conditions in other states. Spots were in good demand during the past week with quotations on the various gra des considerably higher than the week pre- vious. Middling was today quoted at 113sc, against 10 15-16c last Saturday.

SUMMER DULLNESS IN STOCK MARKET Heat Is DiScouraging to the Trading Operations MONEY MARKET Is EASY
 @ Speculation May Be Kept Up to ord- nary Bounds by Easy Money, But There Is Tendency To
 Let Market Alone.
MONEY MARKET IS EASY

New York, June 26.-The stock market today showed plain symptoms of lapsing into summer dullness. Such business as was done originated largely on the floor of the exchange in trading operations among members. Besides the discourag- ing effect of the heat, a period of dull ness in the speculative operations through the critical period of the making of the country harvests is customary The ex- treme ease of the money market, in spite of the near approach of the July settlements might prove an incentive to keep up speculation in some clrcum- stances. The heavy receipts of currency from the interior are providing resources to insure the meeting of all requirements on July l. Borrowing abroad also is pur- sued with facility. There Is no dread apparent that the July payments, esti- mated at over $20O, ,o0O, OO0 will not be met with ease. The time money market Is called very soft, and reflects the expecta- tion that the period of the ease will ex- tend for some time into the future To- days strong bank statement reinforces this expectation. This extreme ease of the money market removes any bar to the outgo of gold and the export of that metal Is expected to continue this week. A disturbing effect was caused in to- days market by the further relapse in Union Pacific preferred, which sold as low as 1001A, compared with no on Thurs day. Confidence in the grounds for the rise was undermined and reactionary eff feet was felt in the whole market.
 Conflicting reports were still in cir culation as to the ultimate outcome of the introduction of United States Steel l.N Da,, ton. that French bankers who had en- tered into the project were secured against any loss in the event of its fail ure had a depressing effect on the shares The sluggish drift of today's price move ment left only small changes at the end of the day.
 Bonds were steady. Total sales, par value, $1,S92, ,00O.

Trad ing was very active and buying well con- tinued to the close. Selling orders were then in hand too late for execution. The immediate cause of the demand was the reports of Mississippi crop deterioration and the prevalent wet weather in the belt generally.
