SUNDAY WAS THE DEATH TOLL DAY
Nearly a Hundred Lose Their Lives
From Prostitution or Drownings
From Intense Heat-Many Vic
Tins Go Insane.

Chicago.-Baking smothering heat,
dealing death and illness, continued to
envelop all O. the middle and central
west Sunday. In Chicago suburbs the
Thermometer registered 104 degrees in
the shade, but in that portion of the

lake a breeze proved a great relief.
The night had been intensely hot.
Thousands fought for Tlaces on the
lake steamers and at the bathing
beaches.

Hot Winds Hurt Crops
All over northern Illinois the TEN
perature averaged SO to 100 degrees
accompanied by torrid blasts, and veg
citation, although alive, is as dry and
brittle as it would ordinarily be in
October.
Advices from the farming districts
say oats are heading out at from seven
to IL inches from the ground and will
hardly be worth harvesting, except as
fodder. The stalks are so short thai
the crop can not be bound into
sheayes. and if it is to be threshed il
must be gathered and thrown into the
separators like hay.

quiet day. in which total transactions
failed to reach 10000 shares.
For brief intervals the market stood
stock still, so to speak; in the early
session a sharp advance carried Mexi
can Petroleum from ss to 70. Little
public interest resulted, as bankers arc
reported to be discriminating against
the stock as collateral. A sympathetic
advance lifted California Petroleum
to FILA
About noon a sharp attack was made
on prices by a noted professional short
trader. Amalgamated Copper was driv-
en- to al, where 1t met stout support;
Steel to e21-4. and Union Pacific be-
low 14e 1-2. The moment this selling
ceased the market rallied slowly.

Speculative interest centred on the
government crop report The condi-
ton OF corn on September ! OF 65.1
gives an indicated crop of 2,351 100000
bushels. This was about expected.
Spring wheat. with showing of 1913
and production of all wheat of 49,
100000 bushels. suggests the largest
crop of wheat ever raised.
The declaration of the regular divi-
dend on New York Central evoked
slight surprise, not altogether agree
able. in view Of the heavy financing
under way. The reduction of the divi-
dend on St Louis southwestern pre-
ferred from to per cent had not
been expected, and was a disappoint-
ment.

that New York Central has sold $685.

that Lake Shore would issue $4,000, 900

and undoubtedly relief TO the bank

| Aside from the expected Issue OF
s25, 600. 900 that may be presumed Will
F, be used TO pay off obligations due the
Union Pacific, 1t is believed that Balti-
more and Ohio will shortly bring out
about $4,000 900 equipment notes.
IT Is fortunate coincidence that
while the figures from the govern
ment report are being made public fine
rains were reported In the Southwest,
! indicating that the drought has at last
been effectively broken. While this
moisture may be too late to save corn,
it will do much to restore pasturagc.
The strength OF the copper market
certainly justifies optimism. The
metal Is firm at 16 ga. with heavy sales
recorded for November and December

at the best figures for the day. and
other copper Issues showed a hrmness
that indicates higher range OF
prices.
