Rev. Lathrop dealt much with the
question from an economic standpoint
during the course of his sermon. THE
national drink bill last year was ST.

times the average cost Of the army
and navy, enough to build ITS battle
ships costing s12,0o0.0oo each, and
twice as much as the running ex-
penses of the government.
1T kills 100000 men per annum.
The saloon program requires stand

ards. 100000 heavy drinkers, 2o,-
100000 tipplers. In life period
booze kills 100000.
by actual investigation booze, Is
found to be ten times more destruc-
tive of human life than war--it has
killed zen times more than all wars.
It would require Titanic disaster to
occur once in every Ave days in a
year to equal the number slain by

PRICES STEADILY
DECLINE IN WHEAT
Promise of Greatest Crop
on Record Responsible.
Percentage High

Chicago, April s.--Wheat took sharp
drop today on publication of the gov
eminent report giving promise of the
greatest wheat crop ON record and plac-
ing the average condition of winter wheat
April 1 at 91.6 per cent compared with
sos a year ago At the close prices
showed a net decline of 101@1lsc. Corn
finished ssqa4c net lower, oats were Off
KG3s@ssc and provisions ranged from 2Oc
lower to 21sc higher.
Belief that the government report would
show wheat condition to be at least 80
per cent and that it possibly would be
as good as 80 per cent was entertained
before the report came out. This caused
carly selling that carried wheat prices
down ssa1ac in the first hour. rally
took place on buying based on firm for
eign markets. but 1t was short lived for
when the governments report came out.
showing a condition of winter wheat that
means a probably crop of 556,000,000 bush
els, on a basis of 10 bushels an acre as
against a crop of 400, 100000 last year,
prices steadily declined. At the close quo
tations were only shade above the low
point of the day, the easing off having
been aided by reports of good rains in
the wheat country.
Primary receipts of wheat were 444.000
bushels Comparison with last year was
not available because of holiday which
closed some important markets at that
time Seaboard clcarances of wheat and
flour equaled 100000 bushels.
Corn lacked support nearly all day. At
ter one or two feeble rallies, ID closed
at the lower point of the session, partly
in sympathy with wheat. Oats followed
the downward course of other grains.
Provisions were quiet all day and at the
close all prices showed declines except
September lard which, under some late
buying, made an advance OF a bare 2lac.
Future quotations were as follows:

NET GAIN OF 4TO6
POINTS IN COTTON
Steady Undertone Although
Prices Show Only Very
Small Advance

New Orleans, April s.-The cotton mar
ket had a steady undertone throughout
today's session, although prices at their
best showed only a small advance and
at. no time was the bull side aggressive.
The river situation and the forecast OF
unsettled and rainy weather for nearly
the entire cotton region we're the main
bullish features of the day. Shorts were
the best buyers; they evened up early
in the morning and again late in the
afternoon.
On the opening the tone was steady
and prices We're 3 to points up. Gables
were better than due and shorts We're
nervous over the break in the levee below
Memphis. The weather map was consid-
cred ideal but was balanced by the un-
favorable forecast. Around the middle
OF the morning the market became dull
and prices fell off under favorable crop
reports At the lowest Of the day tho
trading months were / to : points over
yesterdays final figures. In the afternoon
the market firmed up and sold ) to s
points over yesterdays last quotations.
The close was quiet and steady at a net
gain of to points
Increased exports during the last few
days caused much bullish comment today
as did also the improvement in spot
trading in the Liverpool market. These
two features and rather sensational ru-
mors regarding a deal in the May option
at times stimulated a moderate amount
of buying for long account.

Effect-Reading and

New York, April S.--After pursuing
an uncertain course with prices first

strength today and trading ended with
substantial advances.
Fluctuations seemed to be chiefly the
reflection of activity on the part Of
professional traders. who found 1t
about as difficult to move stocks in one
direction as In the other
Evidences of underlying strength
were not lacking but operators on both
sides of the market were unable to at
tract a following OF the various in
huences brought to bear upon the mar
ket today the Presidents message re-
ceived first attention, but its effect
upon the market was comparatively
small. At the time of its delivery the
list sold off sharply. but the move
ment was short lived and had the ap-
pearance of a bear drive carefully
timed to the hour of publication of the
message. The market grew dull subse-
quently. Renewed confidence was ex-
hibited IN the upward movement of the
last hour and best prices of the day
were attained. Reading and the copper
stocks were especially strong. The
highly favorable character of the gov
ernment report on winter wheat was
a factor in bringing about the final up
turn although its influence was min
imized by the fact that an excellent
Showing had been confidently expected
The same was true of the copper pro-
ducers figures, the March decrease OF
1s,000,000 pounds being in line with
predictions.

COTTON MARKET
GENERALLY QUIET
Prices Fluctuate Within
Range of 5 or 6
Points

New York. April S.-The cotton market
was quiet today and prices fluctuated
within a range of 8 or points with the
close steady at net decline of 3 points
on April. but generally to c points net
higher.
The market opened steady at an ad-
vance of to points in response to higher
cables than expected, prospects for show
ers or rains in the eastern belt, and re-
ports that the levees had broken on the
Arkansas side of the Mississippi about %
miles south of Memphis. Private reports.
however, claimed that not more than 25,-
600 acres of cotton land had been flooded,
and that the water would drain off In
time to permit of planting. These advices
were In line with local sentiment as to
the probable one of floods, believed to be
less extensive than those which occurred
at about this time last year and with
the trade more or less unsettled by tho
possibility of radical tariff legislation,
bulish features in the news appear to
create no important demand. Prices, in
fact, soon showed tendency to ease off
under Memphis and New Orleans selling
while there was also scattering local
LIQUIDATION or Wall street offerings, on
reports of large worlds mill stocks. and
the market during the middle of the day
reacted to practically the final figures
of last night. Private cables from Liver
pool reporting that spinners were calling
and that the financial and political hori-
zon was clearing. helped to check offer
ings at the decline in connection with
reports of a better demand for export.
and the market rallied from the lowest in
the late trading on covering by early
sellers, with the close steady at prac-
tically the best point of the day. South
ern mill advices reported better busi-
ness in yarns notwithstanding the tariff
egita tion and many local traders seeped
to think that the tariff question would
hardly become a serious factor in the dis
tribution of the old crop remnant
