Grain Market

CHICAGO. Sept. 29.-Wheat sagged
today owing to cables being weak.
There were favorable reports as to
the crop outlook in Argentina. Gen
orally fair weather northwest of here
and liberal receipts at Minneapolis
and Duluth had also a bearish effect.
The opening varied from a off to
shade advance, with prices later
showing a material decline.
Improved shipping call and, Mis-
souri, reports of corn moulding in
shock led to a subsequent rally. The
country was said to be selling very
little. The close was firm at %@1c
to rs net advance.
Firmness in corn gave way to the
influence of wheat weakness. The
market started a sixteenth lower to
7s9h higher, but lost about all the
gain.
Later the market hardened decid-
eddy in consequence of a revival of
export demand and because of a de-
crease in the visible supply. The
close was steady Is to u net higher.
Active call for small lots upheld
oats. The opening was unchanged
to % dearer. and a further rise en-
sued, but not all of the advance was
held.
Strength at the yards lifted pro-
visions First sales ranged from PA
lower to 10c. upturn. Most of the
trade was in lard.

MARKET IS WEAK
At CLOSING HOUR
The Trading Becomes Livelier
Towards End-lncrease in
Selling Pressure.

NEW YORK, Sept. 99.-Bv advanc-
ing Is to 1924, Union Pacific made a
new high price for the first movement
at the opening today and came with
in half of the years top figure. Read
ing also made a small gain. but 9th
erwise the drift of the active stocks
was downward. Trading was inactive
and changes were small.
II a. m.-The impression gained by
last weeks market that large inter-
ests would take stocks only for sup
porting purposes, encouraged a Wig
orous bear drive. Union Pacific
slumped rapidly from 1924 to 1891.
Canadian Pacific fell points and
Reading, Steel, Amalgamated and
others a point or more.
Noon-Fundamen factors exert
ed greater weight today and the
weakness of the market was ascribed
more to unsatisfying conclusions
drawn as to the general situation
than to the influence of individual
stocks. After the list had been
damned down 1 to points pressure
diminished, but prices showed no in
clination to harden. Bonds were
easy.
D. m.-Fractional recoveries were
BoHcTdl at IIlo DoSAlulh6 VI Inc dA OCA
noon, but the demand was insig-
niflcant, and the steadiness of prices
arose more from a decrease in selling
orders than from any alteration in
market influences. Missouri Pacific
became strong and rose III after its
favorable annual report came out.
2 p. m.-While there was no general
selling, traders were successful in
ferreting out new weak spots, which
increased pessimism felt over the
course of prices. ST. Paul
and Baltimore & Ohio lost more
ground, and some low-priced special
ties also became weak.
p. m.-The market closed weak.
Trading became livelier toward the
end of the session, with a pronounced
increase in selling pressure. Union
Pacilc sold three points below the
days best, while Steel ruled two
points under Saturdays final.

Ten Carloads of Dried Fruit
Sent Across u. S. as a Test

WASHINGTON. Sept. 9.--Ten car
loads of dried fruit are on their way
from Los Angeles to New York.
Washington and other cities of the
east as part of extensive rests being
conducted by the United States bu-
reau of chemistry to obtain data for
the drafting of regulations for the
new net-weight law, which requires
that the contents be plainly Indicated
on the outside of every package of
food. The tests with the dried fruit
are to determine the amount of
shrinkage which takes place in tran
sit from the Pacific to the Atlantic
coast.
That many niceties of calculation
must enter into the preparation OF
the regulations is shown by the fact
that certain products frequently viii
lose weight when shipped from where
the climate is moist to a high, dry
place, whereas they will take on
weight when sent from a dry to a
moist climate.

Football Players Given Dose
of Strychnine Wallop Rivals

LYNN, Mass, Sept. 2e.-With the
score nothing to nothing at the end
of the first half in football game
between Salem High and Swampscott
High Saturday afternoon, it is alleged
that Coach McDevitt, of the former
school summoned DIR. R. e. Bicknell,
Swampscott physician, to the Salem
dressing room and requested a strych-
nine tablet. DIR. Bicknell supplied one
This, however, was not what was de-
sired, as it was explained to the doc
tor that the players were weak and
not in good physical condition to
stand the strain Of the second half
without stimulant, and made a re-
quest for two tablets for each player.
The physician supplied eleven 1-40
grain tablets and the Salem team
trotted out on the field for the second
half. Before the period had ended
they had rolled up a total of ten
points, showing surprising speed and
endurance, while the Swampscott
High players, fatigued from the first
half, were not able to stand up under
the strain and do any scoring.
