Later Photographs of the crowd were

CROP is GREATEST
More Corn Raised This Year
That Ever Before in the
History of U. S.
MARK OF 1906 PASSED
Total 3, 3,12I3s1 ,OOO, or 100000. 900
More Than Was Produced in
Next Best Season.

Washington, Nov. 10.-The official
figures of the department of agricul-
ture show that the corn crop of the
United States, the largest crop grown
in any country on earth, has outdis-
tanced its best previous record by vir-
-tually 2OO,OOO,OOO bushels and now
reaches the enormous total of 3,121,-
3S1, 900 bushels.
This means that the backbone Of the
nations prosperity is stronger and
sitter than ever before. AS to its
bearing on Chicago and the adjacent
territory the report gives some very
interesting figures.
Six States Lead.
In the great corn belt embraced in
the six states, taking in Ohio on the
east and Nebraska on the west, with
Iowa. Missouri, Illinois and Indiana be-
tween. the showing is excellent despite
the fact that the southern states
(which have lately gone to raising
corn in earnest because of high prices
and the boil weeviD have. a. larger
proportion or the -c0wreTy+e-yf yield than
ever before.
In the strictly corn surplus states
the crop is much more than half of the
total. or 1,752,OO0 bushels. This is
10000, 900 bushels more than these
six states raised last year and $685.
600, 900 bushels more than they raised
in 1908. Illinois this year leads her
next nearest competitor. Iowa, by TO-
100000 bushels and shows a crop of
414,OO0, 900 bushels.
1905 Mark Passed.
The largest previous corn crop ever
raised in the United States was in
1906, when the total was 1927, 100000
bushels. or 194,OOO,0OO bushels less
than the one on which the government
issued its preliminary estimate yester-
day. In addition to a large yield the
department of agriculture shows that
the production per acre is nearly two
bushels more than last year and that
the quality is per cent better.

An assault was made upon-the plant
of FL impartial and the mailing and

20 minutes the mob battered at the
heavy doors leading 70 the editorial

The mounted police charged with
drawn swords. One of the attackers

candon of the federal district, Chief of
Police Feliz Diaz and Joaquin Casasus,
former ambassador to the United
States, followed in automobiles. In a
speech at the municipal palace Gov
ernOr Landay spoke words of approval
of the students protest. but cautioned
them against violence.
Ambassador Wilson, in his note to
the foreign Office, described the occur
renee as a disgrace to the city and to
the Mexican people and expressed sur
prise that, inasmuch as his Office had
warning in advance of the proposed
demonstration, the Mexican authori-
ties had none, or, having it, took no
action to prevent them.
Foreign Minister Creel said to re-
pOrters last evening that every effort
would be made to punish those guilty

new YORK BANKS.
The Einancier will

The Financier will say:
The chief feature of the statement of
the New York clearing house banks for
the week ending April 2, taking the ac-
tual condition report as a basis was q
decrease of 11,SOl 800 in specie. The
preliminary estimates of the known
movement of currency for the week in
Dictated loss to the subtreasury of
something over 100000 but this was
offset to some extent by slight gain
which the banks made on the movement
OF the interior funds. Gold has begun
to flow outward to Europe, the first
engagement of 100000 having been
announced Friday. This will probably
be followed by much heavier move
ment from now on, but what occa-
stoned the very heavy decrease in specie
aside from the known operations of the
week, cannot be explained easily.
The loan item last week showed q
decrease of $4,353 100, and this, together
with the loss in cash, already mentioned.
brought about a decrease Of S17314 200
In deposits. The decrease in deposits,
or course, necessitated smaller reserve
requirements, and the contraction in re-
serve for the week was 1854, $50 leav-
( ing the surplus above the % per cen,
legal minimum at $4.95s.O75. The loans
OF the clearing house banks are now
about $12,OOO.OOO in excess of deposits.
Ins would indicate OF itself period
of firmer money. The summary of
state banks and trust companies not re-
porting to the clearing house showed
an increase Of $9.ss7,9oO in loans, an
cash and an expansion of SI5.143. 900 in
net deposits. The loan burden seems
to be shifting to the trust companies,
although the April 1 dividend disburse-
| ment OF something like $780, 900 no
doubt was responsible for the unex-
pected changes in both the clearing

CHICAGO GRAIN.

CHICAGO, April 2-Rain in many Sec
tons of the southwest brought out gen.
eral selling of wheat today which re-
suited in severe declines. closing quo
tations showing net losses of 9sa% to
1ssa1h. Coarse grain and provisions also
slumped sharply and closed near the
lowest point of the day.
The wheat market opened weak and
gained additional weakness as trading
progressed until at the low point prices
for the new crop months were about 11a
below yesterdays closing figures. Open
ing declines ranged from Il to sal cent,
the latter being the loss on the Septem-
ber option. Covering by shorts held the
market fairly steady during the first
hour, but after that there was a gradual
recession in prices.
Reports of rain in Kansas and other
sections of the winter wheat belt, and
an official prediction of additional show
ers in the southwest for tonight and to-
morrow were the chief reasons for the
heaviness. Demand was lacking in the
final half of the day, owing to the in
new lines over Sunday. The range for
the September delivery was between
1O3a4 and 1.041s. July sold between LOSS
and 1.07 and LOTS. The close was almost
at the lowest point. September being at

situation. Cash corn declined y to l,

Oats were weak all day in sympathy
with the heaviness of other grain. Re-
ports telling Of a large acreage seeded to
oats and of the ideal conditions prevail
ing for the new crop were also influen-
tial factors in causing the selling pressure,
which was in evidence all day. The mar
ket closed weak with prices down % to

Despite bullish statistics on live hogs
the provisions market slumped severely,
owing to profit-taking by leading holders.

only support coming apparently from

prices were 124a15 to 521s below the final

the weakest on the list. the May delivery
declining from $3.50 to 25.O7h. May lard
sold OF from 3.70 to 1885, and ribs from
