Chicago, May 14-W HEAT-July
wheat closed at an advance of about 1
cent for the day and the September Is
of a cent over last nights closing
prices. There was some sharp action
in the May price but it really had very
little to do with other months. The
selling was encouraged some what by
the forecast of a little rain west and
northwest tonight. This to some ex-
tent was offset by the clear cold wealth
er over the spring wheat country,
which was the bull feature at the OPEN
ing. On the break, the recognized bull
leaders in September became buyers on
a liberal scale mad kept adding to their
holdings from that time until top prices
We're reached near the close. A big
warehouse, which sold line of July
wheat during the first hour, was cred
tied with buying twice as much on the
late upturn. 1t was a first class trad
ing market with 11ac range for July
and 1Ac for September. There is soma
talk of increased movement to the
northwest markets. st. Louis reported
considerable wheat left over unsold but
prices there held steady The market
closed with local shorts generally
forced to cover and some indications of
an over bought trade among those who
were bullish. We think any further
swell on the new crop months will look
sellers.
CORN-It was about a stand-off in
July corn for the day with heaviness
and lower prices for May and Septem-
Der September showed Nc net loss
from Yesterday Receipts continue 20
run small. Prospects for better wealth
err for planting season and belief that
the country will sell more corn in the
near future, are the bearish features.
we believe sales of corn for the de-
ferred months on hard spots, VIII snow
early profits.
OATS-There was only fair activity
in oats for the day and at the close, the
May price ruled easier at 421ac. July
price was a fraction lower at 40%c and
September unchanged at 39Hc. We see
nothing to hold the market strong I'M
less we have unfavorable reports from
the growing crop
PROVISIONS-There was not much
action in hog products during the
morning. Prices held at little ad-
vance over Thursdays figures. Strength
was in line with higher prices of hogs
at the yards and shorts were active
buyers at times. 1t was not until just
at the close, that any special strength
developed. July pork went to $22-32,
lard s12. 65, ribs $3.50.
NEW YORK STOCKS-The Journal
of Commerce today says: Significant
retisence is observed by our leading
financiers when questioned concerning
the general OUTLOOK IHey duIIlil tIlat
conservatism is desirable, but they are
a, erse to entering into details as to
why they feel as they do. They talk
a g if they feared something which they
didn't care to discuss at this time.
Great Importance is attached among
banking circles, to our continued adj
verse trade balance. 1t is limited that
either American prices for goods must
come down or prices in other countries
advanced to our level, an alternate
that is not, Of course, probable. For

London, MAJ 14.-Louis Paulhan,
the French aviator, fresh from his
success in securing the London-Man-
chester $4,000 prize, will within a
short time attempt a trip from Lon

be a memorial to the dauntless avia-

Paulhan has accomplished some of

Europe but sooner or later this move

passing legislation not welcomed by
capital, the latest sample being the
railroad bill, while looking ahead tariff
reduction is numbered among the pos

is necessary so early in the season. Be
the reason what it may, the fact re-
mains that influential interests refuse

Business Opportunities in Canada.

The exodus of American farmers
into Western Canada has caused so
much comment that the movements
of the manufactures have passed al
most unnoticed. Yet they are over
there in force. In a tour of 1000
miles, wherever I found industries.
there I found American money. In
Fort William, Port Arthur, Winnipeg
you come upon it at every turn. One
whole factory suburb is given up to
American firms in Calgary. There
and in Edmonton the largest plants are
owned by men from the states. In
British Columbia it is notorious that
the copper mines are controlled from
over the line, and that American lum-
bermen are doing the larger half of
the timber business.
The Americans are certainly in
