A message was received by the man
agement of the Goddard seminary foot
ball team last night from the manager
of the Burlington high school saying
that the game scheduled for to-day be-
tween the two teams would have TO be
cancelled. On account of the school be-
ing closed for the teachers convention
in session there, it was stated that some
of the football squad had left the city.
Although no definite date has been ar
ranged for the game, it has been sug-
gested that the two teams meet at Inter
city park tomorrow afternoon and line
up before or after the game between
Vermont and Norwich. The local team
looks favorably on the idea, and if Prin-
cipal HOLSTER, who is now in Burling-
ton, can make satisfactory arrangements
with the high school management the
game will be played tomorrow, II is
not known what action the two college
teams will take in regard to the matter.
If the two teams do not meet to-mor-
row, game will doubtless be arranged
for some day next week.

VENT SENSATIONAL INCREASE
IN CEREAL VALJES-BANk
STATEMENT.
(By the Associated Press.)

New York, July 9.-Prices of stocks
advanced today in face Of the showing
of the government crop report on
spring wheat. The movement OF the
price of wheat today left no room for
doubt that the speculation had failed
to appraise adequately the amount
of damage disclosed by the govern
ment report to spring wheat. the
compromising advantage of the good
promise of the winter wheat and the
news today of showers in the drought
stricken territory did not prevent SEN
sational in the price of the
cereal. The subject had lost it's power,
however,, to induce effective liquida-
tion of stocks Outside the wheat
nlarket the StOck market a the
crop promise as an additional factor
Of a~melioration to consider. The crop
report, as a whole, however, was ad-
mittedly an U~nfavorable factor on
stock market values and was disre-
garded.
The bank statement showed wider
discrepancies betWeen the average ana

closed since the double showing was
instituted. The decrease in the aver
age surplus reserve of $7,591,900 was
transformed in loans decreased ST.

crease Of $24, 600, 900. The average
