Chicago, July 11.-Liverpool wheat
closed 1& to IL lower. Our market
opened " to Ia lower, with general
scattered selling in the way Of profit
local operators. The weather map
showed q more scattered distribution
of precipitation, though the character
of the rainfall was of a showery nature.
The temper of the local trade was
rather bearish and prices declined to
$1.02 for September by noon. The
primary movement compared with
q year ago showed large
increase, receipts $4,000 bushels VS..
$4,000 bushels OF which southwestern
points furnished 100000 bushels VS..
$4,000. The tenor of our advices today
regarding spring wheat crop shows no
Improvement in general conditions. The
market, however, showed a tendency,
not only to halt in its upward course
but to have a reactionary tendency
which was no more than natural after
the recent sharp advance. The move
ment of winter wheat will doubtless
have a great influence on the minds of
spectators, even those bullishly in
clined, for any selling pressure re-
sulting from such movement must be
taken care of either by professional
buyers or by milling trade. For this
reason we should be inclined, to GO
rather slow, the buying at moment as
the set back so far from the high
point has been very small as compared
with the advance.
Corn-Ideal weather continuing over
the corn belt, caused a lower opening
and weak undertone to the market

a larger scale than for some time. Lo- !

Clay county and a large territory
was we'll wetted today by a rain which
began to fall lightly between 4 and S
o'clock this morning and continued un-
til nearly 10 o'clock. The way the
moisture fell and the breeze and temp

the farmers wanted. The fall was
quite propitious and coming now

aVerted. The precipitation Is gen.

Telephone messages received by
bankers and business men this morn

Halstad, Comstock. Kant, Hendrum,

George e. Perley said the moisture
today Will be worth millions of dollars
TO Clay county and tributary parts of
the Red river valley, especially to
pastures and the potato fields.
Leslie Weller, who is interested in
potatoes, said that the wetting came
Just in the nick of time and will do
vast amount of good-it was generally
needed, in some communities, and 1t
means recuperation for a good many

helped, but, continued Mr.. Weller, 'T

there are good stands of wheat and

Mr.. Hanson Denies.

In connection with the report OF the
burning of the ] eimers boy at the
Mccarthy & Leimers grading camp on
the Great Northern ut-off, Fargo to
Minot and Surrey, week or two ago,
1t was stated that the fire was caused
by the burning of a straw pile near
the camp which was alleged to have
been set by "a man named Hanson. The
story was given to the reporters by a
man who claimed he was an eye wit
ness of the whole sad occurrence, but
now comes Mr.. Hanson who says that
he was fifteen miles away from the
scene of the fire and it was not his
straw stack which caused the fire. It
is alleged, however, that the hay shed
in which the unfortunate lad had been
sleeping caught fire from the outside.

JAP SAYS women
Want "YELLOWS"

New York, July 11.-That women are
| responsible for the sensationalism in
American newspapers is the belief and
declaration of G. Date, editor of the
Kokumin Shinbun of Toxic, Japan,
The Japanese editor arrived in New
York after a slow tour around the
world in which he studied the news
papers in every big city G. Date is
collecting data for history of journal
ism, but he does not deny that he is
using his information for more prac-
tical purposes.
The paper in Toxic of which Editor
Date is the head, is a morning journal,
but the editor is contemplating issu-
ing an evening edition also. This had
something to do with the editors trip,
for, as soon as it was decided to give
the Kokumin Shinbun an evening edi-
ton the editor started out to see how
evening papers were really made.
He came across Siberia to st. Pc
tersburg, where the bomb proof cell
lars and the artillery of the editors
alarmed him. Continuing through Eu-
rope he was again discouraged by the
alarming quantities of beer which the
German editors consumed. Mr.. Date
thought that an editor must neces-
sarily drink large quantities of beer,
Judging from his large experience, in
Berlin. Ha.s .a
In Paris Date failed to keep several
engagements because the editors were
lighting duels. This added a new note
of encouragement. In London. the
heavy solid-looking papers caused the
Jap to believe that no one read them.
His most pleasant experience so far
has been in New York. Giving his
impression of the American press and
the reading public he said:
Your papers appeal more to women
than to men. Women are sensational
in their nature and you make vour
papers more sensational than those M
any other nation. Women in America
notice, are coming into a large prom
inent place in Journalism and all the
big papers have many women report
ers."
Mr.. Date is going to Washington tn
confer with the Japanese minister and
is then going to San Francisco from,
which point he sails.
