THE CROP MARKETS
Wheat Firmer and Higher, Corn
and Oats Also Tending Upward.

All the cereal markets showed an upward
tendency, wheat leading with an advance
of s.alIs cents a bushel. The boost upward
was due to pessimistic predictions regard
Ing the yield Of soft spring wheat, one
being that the production would not be
enough for bread and seed. An advance in
Liverpool on statements OF small stocks In
France also helped the rise.
Corn, on reports OF seed rotting In the
Southwest made a gain of iagssc on an ac-
tive and firm market, and the advance IN
oats equalled that In corn, with market con-
dtions about the same.
New bull interests are credited with sup
porting tho cotton market on all initial de-
cline, but weather conditions were the DOM
inant factor In the restriction OF offerings
Trading was comparatively quiet. ana me
end OF the fluctuations showed a net gain
Of from 4 to points. after drops in the
latest trading of or S points, leaving the
market barely steady
Provisions started out with show or
steadiness, but weakened under selling
pressure, closing slightly lower, and coffee,
after q moderate days business, showed
net loss OF TO points. the opening
having been at a slight advance over
Wednesdays figures.

Sherman Law Not Violated.

The commission was unanimous in grant
iur the New Ravens application to- day,
giving its reasons as follows:
That the acquisition Of the stock Of the
Rutland Railroad Company by the Now
Haven Company Is not believed to be in
violation Of the statute Of the United States
commonly known as the Sherman law, and
- nor III violation Of the principles laid
down In any decision OF the courts 10 which
It's attention has been called
Fhat the Rutland Railroad. IN connection
WITH lis subsidiary water line, the Rutland
transit Company. is n natural route be
tNcen New England territory reached only
by the New Haven road and tho West and
Northwest
That the operation OF tho Rutland by the
Sew Haven will In effect constitute a new
through line from New England to all
points reached by tho Rutland Transit
Company.
That the New York Central. which at
present controls the Rutland. is 10 a ma
terlal extent competitor with the Rutland.
While on the other hand tho Rutland IS by
lis connection with the Boston * Maine a
natural extension Of the New Haven sys-
tom as at present operated, and that the
natural effect Of the control OF the Rutland
by the New Haven will be 20 increase com
crease of business over the Rutland from
ard TO New England points
That n such anticipated Increase Of bust
moss over the Rutland is realized Il will
afford additional facilities 10 the public and
he OF very considerable benefit 10 tho cities
and villages reached by the Rutland IN New
York and Vermont
