Chicago, April 17.-Frosts reported

homa and the north part of Texas had
q bullish effect today on the price Of
wheat. Moreover. the weather was cold
and cloudy northwest with many places
sending word Of temperature below
freezing. Decreasing stocks at Liver
pool counted loss against the bear
side. No ray Of hope appeared from
the districts east of the Mississippi
where winter killing was alleged to
have wrought such widespread harm.
For example, all the way from Peoria
to Springfield, Ills, was said to show
this morning total failure-only here
and there green field. The opening
varied from " off to re up. July
started at $106A to s1.O7, a gain Of a
s1.o7A.
After a trifle more advance the July
optiono dipped sharply because OF a
leading firm having sales intended to
effect quick scalp. The close was un-
settled with July h@Ac net lower at

Corn turned strong on account OF the
wet and cold. Shorts scurried to BUY
and found but little offered. July open

YOUNG ENRE AND
BROWN INDRAW

New York, April 17.-Knockout
Brown of New York and Young Ernc
Of Philadelphia fought-a ten-round
draw at the Madison Athletic club
Monday night. Brown had all the bet
ter Of the early sessions OF fighting,
but by whirlwind finish in the last
half Of the bout Erne managed to even
things. Brown repeatedly sent Erne to
the ropes with smashes TO the face and
body He was particularly effective
with his left swings to the body and
in the third and sixth rounds nearly
ended the battle. Erne was weak and
sick: Only by sheer will power was he
able to keep on his feet. In the seventh
Erne made a fine rally In the ninth
and tenth rounds Erne smashed Brown
at will. AS far as cleverness was con-
cerned, Brown was surprise and Erne
was disappointment. Erne missed
Brown SO many times that the crowd
jeered.
