TODAY'S MARKET REPORT,

Chicago, Jan. 20.-WHEAT-Wheat ad-
vanced today because of drought over
large sections of India and on account of
the unfavorable outlook for peace. Mild
weather in the American winter crop belt
however caused easy tone at first.
Expected liberal shipments from Argen-
tina also gave little temporary help to
the bears. The opening ranged from &c
lower to 3sc advance. May started at
927sc to $3.50, the same change from last
night as the market taken altogether and
then rose to $3.50.
Good buying for millers northwest failed
later to prevent a setback due to realizing
sales. The close was steady at 93lsc for
May, &c above last night.
CORN-Increasing stocks weakened corn.
May opened unchanged to sc off at 51szc
to 515sc and seemed inclined to keep at
he lower level.
Afterward the market receded still fur
Their when wheat became easier. The
close was steady with May nc net lower
at 515sc.
OATS-Oats were steadied by the firm
ness of wheat. May, which started q
shade higher 34c, went up to 34Q341sc.
PROVISIONS-Profit taking on the part
of holders turned the provision market
downward. First sales varid from 212c
lower to SC advance with May at s19.25
to $3.50 for pork and s10.271s for lard and

New York Stock Market.

Wall ST., New York, Jan. 3o.-STOCKS-
The appearance of large purchasing or
ders leading stocks strengthened the stock
market decidedly today and there was a
broad upward movement. Virtually every
stock commonly traded in was in brisk
demand with advances reaching several
points in the most active issues. Senti-
ment was influenced favorably by evil
dence that the manipulation of Can was
losing it's force In curbing speculation.
Can forged ahead steadily and touched As
despite frequent relapses on profit taking.
Bonds were steady.
Aside from further wide fluctuations in
American Can stocks, the opening of the
market today was featureless. On open
ing sales of 5000 shares, Can common
touched a new high point for the present
movement at 43. gain of 2h. The pre-
ferred stock rose a point. Changes among
the general list were about EVENLY dtvid-
ed between small fractional gains and
Strong buying in various parts of the
list caused the market to advance briskly,
overcoming the restraint put on specula-
ton by the gyration. Reading, Steel,
Union, Lehigh and Smelling improved to

losses.

Three Johnsons in Probate Court.

There was a confusion of Johnsons
in the probate court yesterday after
noon. Three cases in quick success
sion, in which a johnson figured
prominently, came in. The first was
a case in which it was alleged that
Magnus johnson is feeble minded.
The court heard the evidence and de-
cided that a guardian was necessary
Swan Johnson, whose name is a
common one on the records of the pro-
bate court, then came in to file a Pc
tition to set aside all former orders
regarding himself. He has been fight
ing for years to be free firm a judg-
ment of insanity that has been hang
ing over him, and although he has his
freedom the court has steadfastly re-
fused to grant him his citizenship.
Then q com plant came in charg-
ing that Marie johnson is insane. The
case is set for hearing tomorrow when
the merits of the case will be heard,

name one or more accountants who
shall have full charge of the work and
make a report of his findings to the
state officials. If the state auditor de-
sires, he may order an audit of any
county records on his own motion and

of either the governor or attorney gen.
eral. An accountant appointed to take
charge of any county audit, shall re-
ceive for his services the sum of s.

ty in which the audit is made.
Taylor Riddle, Of Marion county, has
presented a bill providing for an audit
of the books and records in the Mar
ion county court house at least 80 days
before the expiration of the term of
office to which any official has been
elected.
Keene, of Bourbon county, has Of
fered a bill consolidating the boards of
regents of the state educational in
situations and creating an administra-
ton board. His bill is similar to the
one vetoed two years ago by Governor
Stubs. The Keene measure provides
salary of SO, 500 a year to each of the
three members of the board.
James W. Orr, of Atchison county,
today introduced a bill in the house
which extends the time for mine op-
orators to build and equip escape
shafts. The 1911 session passed a law
which would compel mine operators to
build and equip escape shafts in all
mines in Kansas. That bill providing
a time limit of March 1, 1918, for the
completion of this work. 1t is now
stated that mine operators have beer
derelict in fulfilling the requirements
of the new law and that in many in
stances work on escape shafts has not
been started. Orr's bill would provide
that work on these shafts must be
started in 80 days from the passage of
the act, but fixing a time limit of
March I, 1915. for completing the work

Following a hard fight against 1T

for passage The bill provides that

ing the buyer with complete INST OF
his creditors. The idea of the bill IS
to prevent the sale of stocks that
have been purchased on credit, leaV-
ing the creditors in the lurch.
From the vote on q substitute mo-
ton that the bill be not recommend
ed for passage, in which only 81 votes
were mustered in favor OF the Dill, the
indications are that it Will pass the
house by a very narrow margin, 90
votes being a constitutional majority
necessary to pass the measure

measure in the committee of the
whole. He was aided by Speaker ".
L. Brown, J. N. Herr of Barber, and
others. On the other hand William
Barrett of Pratt, one of the speakers
right hand men, fought the measure
bitterly. 1t was by no means party
m easures votes both for and against
coming from both sides of the assem-
bly,.
When the committee arose Mr.. Herr
moved a substitute to a motion to
recommend the measure for passage
providing that it should not be rec
the narrow margin of as to Ga.
The house yesterday voted to post
pone the consideration of the initia-
tive and referendum, made a special
order of business yesterday afternoon
at 3 o'clock, until o'clock this after
noon, when it appears as q special
order. The objection to immediate
consideration arose over the fact that
the resolution had not been distrib-
uted, and a number of the members
wanted further time to go over the
proposed resolution and ascertain just
what it was.
The judiciary committee, to which
the resolution had been referred, re-
ported favorably upon it with rec
ommendation that it be referred to
the committee of the whole. The re-
port came in late, however, and was
another reason why the consideration
should go over.
Representative w. G. Tulloss, of
Franklin county, would provide for
compulsory audit of county records on
the motion of either the governor, at

Tulloss bill provides that when either
the governor or attorney general make
request of the state auditor for an
audit of the public records in any

which Will Halt Influx from South

Washington, June 1.-An attempt
TO eliminate immigration from south-
ern European and Asiatic countries

upon which President Taft placed his
1isapproval the last session Of con-
Sress is embodied in bill to be in

Senator Dillingham's bill will pro-
pose restriction upon the number
IL immigrants from any country to
De fixed at 10 per cent from the
number of persons Of similar nation
'lty who were shown to be residents
II the United States at the time OF
the last census. The senator esti-
mates that his new method of limit
ms immigration would greatly reduce
the annual influx from Italy, Austria
hungary, Greece and Turkey. and
would at the same time allow an in
'rease in the number of immigrants
who might enter from Germany.
Great Britain, Sweden and Norway

a statement issued tonight from
the Office of the commissioner gen
eral of immigration declared that the
present immigration law scarcely ex-
cludes any except those afflicted with
serious mental or physical defects"
and has but little effect in reducing
the great influx of aliens.
Notwithstanding the mandatory
provisions of the law" said the state
ment, lit has been difficult in the
past to deport even when aliens are
mentally or physically deficient. It
mas become customary for friends or
philanthropic societies to appeal in
oehalf of rejected aliens and in TAX
ing such appeals little or no con-
'ideration is given to the merits of the
case"
During the last fiscal year. the
