May 25.
This is the first condition report Of
the season and is not regarded as OF
any great Importance because it is con
sidered that May 25 is altogether toe
early date on which to draw conclu.
sions of any value. At the same time
it has caused rather more speculative
comment than usual this year and any
departures from expectations will pro-
badly cause price fluctuations one way
or the other. AS opinion stood at the
end Of the week the trade was looking
for figures around so to SO per cent
of the normal
Some bears put out estimates as
high as So and some bulls did not be-
lieve that the average of 1913 would
be exceeded. Few traders, even thos
who entertained extremely Ibullish
views of the crop expected as low a re-.
port as that made last year, when the
percentage was put at 1879. On the
other hand, only comparatively few
bears expected the figures to equal the
condition of two years ago, when it was
SIS. 1t is likely that a report under
81 would cause an advance while fig
ures over the level would cause de-
cline
After the condition report and the
holiday the trade will probably go 10

has been to increase estimates in this
direction and to place the increase in

may grow more pronounced this week

way company will be better able in
the future to combat the problem OF
high cost OF living SO far as concerns
food and necessary clothing. The
company intends to establish CO.
operative stores on its own property
where the necessities OF life may be
purchased by its. men at actual cost.
The first intimation OF this plan
came last night at the annual enter
tainment OF the Employees Mutual
BENEFIT Association in the speech OF
Theodore P. Shonts, the president.
Shonts first told the men that the
company had decided to make wage
increases amounting to $4,000 a
year, averaging ten per cent to each
employe. After the cheers greeting
this announcement had subsided,
Shonts advanced plans sor the CO.
operative stores. He told the men
they would be given a chance to vote
on the proposition. The stores. he
said, would not be run for profit but
would enable the employees to get
their food and other necessities at a
price that would do away with the 90
or 80 per cent now taken in by the
middleman.
Today il was said at the company's
offices that the increase had been re-
ceived with such enthusiasm there
was no question OF the result of the
vote OF the employees and that plans
were already being drawn up for the
establishment OF the first store at the
car barns on Eighth avenue and FIT
tieth street.
