WHEAT CONTINUES
TO MAKE ADVANCE
Fears of Cold Weather Damage
Cause Strength
CLOSE IS AT HIGHEST
the Close Is at a General Advance.
Oats Go Up Sharply and
Provisions Decline

Chicago, April 23.-Urged along by in
sistent demand, wheat prices advanced
today with only momentary set backs and
closed strong from &c to 1sc UP. Corn
also gained, although to a less degree
than wheat, while oats, braced by fears
of cold weather damage, equaled the ad-
vance in wheat, September taking on a
gain of 11sc. Provisions fell away from
early advance and closed from 215c to 16c
down.
Weather conditions played a large part
in the course of wheat prices and the
low temperatures in different sections of
the wheat belt gave added emphasis to
reports of crop damage. particularly in
the Kansas and western Nebraska fields.
Forecast of freezing conditions In the
middle west states, extending south into
buying of the September delivery, which
went up from s10O1 to s1.01%. North
western concerns were good buyers Of
the deferred option and much attention
was given by the bulls to the July cereal.
which advanced from 81 OPS to S1.093s.
May shared in the upturn and closed at
the top with a net gain of 1@1bc at
s1.0s7s. Final figures for July were &c
higher at 81 .O314, while September, with
like gain. closed at s1.O5Ss.
Corn prices showed healthy tone ali
day, though their gains were more modest
than those of wheat. An improved de-
mand for cash corn was AN important
factor and prevailed over temporary de-
clines. The price of cash corn advanced
from &c to 1c. No. yellow sold at $3.50
60,4c
The strength of wheat and oats sup
plemented the influence of the strong
cash market and kept futures from fall
ing away. May travelled between 5Sssc
and s4QBc. the other deliveries moving
with it. The close was strong with May
14Gssc higher at 5Sss@5Ss4c.
The volume of trade in the oats pit
exceeded recent limits and covering by
shorts, together with much new invest
ment, kept prices advancing most of the
session. + ears that the low temperatures
experienced and forecast for Iowa, HI
nois and other fields would materially
damage the growing plants made Sep
TENDER a fayorite purchase, advancing
that option from &C to 3sssc. The dis
tant delivery closed at the top 14c higher.
July and May moved forward more Sc
dately and also closed at the top. May
moved from 42c to 42%c and closed s4c
higher, while July travelled from 40c 10
4o7sc and closed A@1c up.
Provisions started with mild advance
in prices, due to higher figures for live
hogs and a light western run of the ami
mails. Local concerns threw out long
lines of the products and Slapped the
strength of the market. May pork fell
away from $22. Is to s22 OH, other prod
ucts declining likewise The close was
weak with prices from PIC to 15c down.
Final figures on the May products We're:
Pork, 10c off at So OFT; lard. 2l1c down
at $12 4711z, and ribs, TIC off at $12.S5.

the average planter in the worst pro-
vided for sections had at least planting
and half OF seed, and that the replant-
ing necessary was not sufficient to de-
plete the reserve.
At the end of the week it was quite gen
orally acknowledged that temperatures
might be warmer, but there was a de-
cided difference of opinion in regard to
the condition of the old crop.
The lowest prices were made at the be-
ginning of the week and the highest were
made Thursday At the highest the old
crops were only IL to Is points over last
weeks closing. While the new crops were
still 1 to 2 points under that level in the
spot market, prices we're advanced
1-16c, midding closing at 14ssc, against
IA s-16c last week, and 10 3-1ec this week
last year.
Total sales on the spot were 400 bales,
against 2772 last week and 600 this week
last year; sales to arrive totalled 1860
bales, against 21S4 last week and 1850 tn.

Bobby had oeen unusually quiet for
several hours-so quiet, indeed, that his
mother began TO worry over the great
quantities of stiffness that came from the
room in which he was sitting. Finally,
unable to stand the strain any longer,
she rose up from her work and went
into the nursery.
What are you doing. Bobby?" she
said as she discovered the little chap
curled up in a chair with a very solemn
expression on his face.
"Thinkin' and wishin,'' replied Bobby.
What about, dear?" asked his mother.
81 was thinkin how nice 1T would be
if I was twins" he answered. Then
the other one could do the studyin' at
school and l could stay home and play;
and then, when did something naughty,
why, you could spank him. When I was
sick he could take the castor oil, and
"And when you had some candy, what
then?' asked his mother.
"Oh, I'd eat it, said Bobby. 1T
wouldn't do for me to let him get sick"

A Warm Reception

From the New York Press.
Never hear Of burglar breaking
into a Chinese laundry. do you?" in
uuired the gentleman with a Sing Sing
record IT should think not. The
laundry Chinks always have money in
the house but a crook has lot OF
respect for hot irons. I'd rather be
shot with a pistol. chawed by bull
dog and batted with balesticks than
be a target for q hot iron. II Is the
Chinaman's handiest weapon, and his
aim is deadly. A cold iron is bad
enough, but a hot one is fierce. 1t not
only stuns; it burns, and burns deep
Most Chinks know that crooks are
afraid of their hot irons, and I have
known wise old heathens who had lots
Of dough in the house to keep an iron
on the fire all night in case anything
should turn up"

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s Letter

New York. April 23.-(Special. lit ap-
pears that the losses resulting from the
failure of Knight-Yancey & Co. are so
severe In Europe as to check the desire
to trade until the cotton world can as
certain how many Of the bills Of lading in
existence are fraud. These losses are
due to the fact that no one has ever
been punished for acts of this character
in the past Probably these losses are SO
severe as to lead to some change in
presnt methods and laws.
The market here has been dull. without
tendency and no indications of the course
of prices in the future. Liverpool should
recover the decline of today on Monday.
