THE CHICAGO MARKET.

CHICAGO, May 31.-With Liverpool
prices the lowest in several years n
the European visible supply showing an
increase for the week, there was a gem
eral rush here to sell wheat today.
Notwithstanding the o weather in
this country, moreover, the outlook Tor
the growing crops was said to be gem
orally favorable. Talk of readjusting
to an international basis Of prices start
ed afresh. Attention was so concen-
trated on this and kindred phases the
bulls got small comfort from the fact
that sales of cash wheat to millers in
Chicago and the East on Friday and
Saturday were found to reach 1850, 900
bushels, a total seldom paralleled and
regarded as practically cleaning up the
Nav lea in favor of the Eastern
sp~eculator, who was the chief holder.
The market here opened "a to IA
lower, the latter in the December OPP
ton, which started at SO to 80. May
was off l to IL, but was given relative
ly little notice, although this was the
last day for settlement. September
started A@1 to 1h@19s down at 80 to
905a, and rallied to 90b. Other options
also showed some reaction from the
early low level,
In corn the big stocks in cribs and
the wheat weakness offset for a time
the effect of cold weather. September
opened Il to u lower. at 57M to ",
but later advanced to 58H.
General commission selling caused
a lower opening for oats. The market
afterward, however, rose In sympathy
with corn. September started A@H to
%@h down, at 34B to 35h, and ad-
vanced to 35B.
Despite a fairly steady start, pro-
visions succumbed to the influence of
weakness in wheat. Initial prices were
5 lower to ~ higher, with the Septem-
Der delivery at 22.05 to 22.10 for pork.
12.321s to 1896 for lard and 1890 for
ribs.
Large purchases by a firm recently
bearish in the May deal brought the
wheat market up to about Saturdays
final figures for the new crop months,
Fear of damage by rain and hail in
Kansas was a factor. Later, because
Of lack IF support, the market sagged.
The close was steady, with September
at g1tS. a net loss of %@h.
Official forecast of continued cold
ahead helped corn prices materially,
but on account of weakness in wheat all
the gain was not held. The close was
firm, with September at 5SH, a net gain
of ~.

LEHIGH VALLEY FILES
CONTINUATION CHANGE.
Interstate Commerce Commits
sion Receives New Rates.

WASHINGTON, May 31.-In con-.
onance with the action of other East
ern lines, the Lehigh Valley Railroad
Company today filed with the Inter
state Commerce Commission advances
in its rates on Communication passenger
traffic. The new tariff applies to all
stations between New York city and
Bound Brook, N. j., will become
effective July /, 1910.
In practically every instance of
change, the tariff shows an increase.
The advance. however, is comparatively
slight, when considered in connection
with that made by the New York, New
Haven and Hartford or with that made
by the Erie.
The general increase is a trifle over
5 per cent. on the various kinds of
Communication fares. On sixty-trip
monthly tickets the average advance is
3.76 per cent; on the hfty-trip family
tickets, 4.65 per cent, and on ten-trip
tickets, 6.95 per cent. On the sixty
trip tickets the increases ranged from
200 per cent to ga per cent; on the
fifty-trip tickets, from 2.1 per cent. to
POS per cent, and on the ten-trip
tickets, from 3.8 per cent. to ia per
cent.

COMMERCE BOARD
RATE Gut UPHELD
BY HIGHEST COURT

WASHINGTON, May 31.-The author
mission in issuing the order directing a
reduction of the through freight rates
from Chicago and from st. Louis to
Denver and the validity of that order
were today upheld by the Supreme
Court of the United States.
Other decisions handed down today
were:
That the estate of a testator who died
within one year Immediately prior to
the taking effect of the act which re-
pealed the Spanish-American wal rev
enue act, was subject to the tax.
The long-cohtested order of the In
terstate Commerce Commission reduc-
ing the freight rate between the Mis-
sissippi river and the Missouri river,
as a part of the through rate on
through shipments originating in the
seaboard territory, was declared to be
valid.
The statute of Missouri, passed March
10, 1907, prohibiting foreign corpora
lions from doing business within the
State, If they seek litigation in the
United States courts, was declared un-
constitutional.
Pink Franklin, the South Carolina
negro, whose conviction of the hurdle
of Special Constable Valentine led to an
attack on the so-called labor con-
tract laws of the South, must suffer
the death penalty.
An attempt to nav the court pass on
the authority of common carriers en-
gagged in interstate to make
Jim Crow regulations met with fall
ure when the court dismissed the So
called Chiles appeal from its docket.
Low water mark on h south bank
of the Potomac was held by the court
as the true boundary between Mary
land and West Virginia. The State of
Maryland contended it should be the
highwater mark. The our also held
the cost of surveying the boundary line
should be borne by both States in equal
parts.
