Chicago, Aug. 12.-Wheat-Strength
in corn helped wheat some and some
reports from North Dakota and Can
ada regard ding black rust We're also
features with the local trade. Well
posted people think that it is rather
late in the season for such reports to
gain much credence or such condi-
lions, If present should do much dam
age
Corn-Those in a position TO have
advance information in regard to re-
ports OF damage since Aug. l, which
was given publicity today, We're best
buyers yesterday and today, and at the
time the reports were made public,
corn was at about the best prices
reached on this advance. These re-
ports show sensational losses on what
has generally been considered good
territory. The estimates are possibly
little too sensational to be given
general credence, unless followed by
extensive buying from the territory
said to be affected. No such buying
has yet occurred
Oats-While the strength in corn af-
fected oats somewhat there was no
large advance and u to % cent would
about cover the improvement in prices.
Receipts were fairly large again and
the cash market followed the advance
in the pit.
Provisions-There was a generally
lower trend Of values, deferred futures
being sold early by the local crowd.
The hog movement continues liberal
and cash trade is not entirely satisfac-
tory to owners of accumulated stocks.

figure in the proposed building of a

+ declares he does not feel like expend-
ing any great amount of money in
extensions that may not pay very well
for several years at least.
The proposed extension of q 6-inch

MAKING PROGRESS.
Santa Fe Man Reports on the San
Francisco Fair.

J. J. Byrne, assistant passenger traf-
fic manager of the Santa F'e at Los
Angeles, visited San Francisco recent
ly for the specific purpose of making
an inspection of the Panama-Paciflc
exposition and to learn at first hand
just what progress has been made 70
ward getting grounds and exhibits in
shape.
Mr. Byrne states that the work of
putting in sewers, water pipes, level
ing the land and making excavation
for waterways is complete and the
buildings are now under way. Ihe
frame work of the machinery palace
is up and is receiving it's covering of
imitation stone. The palace of educa-
ton is showing fine progress, while
arts and many other buildings are well
under way.
The directors claim that all of the
main exhibit palaces will be COM
pleted and ready. for occupancy by
July 1, 1914. which is, OF course, way
in advance of anything ever known in
an exhibition of this kind.
Up to the end of July this year they
had received $5,400,000 in cash and
had expended about 81, 100000, leaving
dollars. In addition they have avail
able assets of $12.000.OO0.
The report current through the east
that many of the subscribers toward
lne 1uHu Iol pt oiiONiS -.
terprise are delinquent is erroneous
Mr. Byrne's investigation shows that
there is a smaller percentage of de-
Iinuuency than at any previous large
exposition. He states further that
while England, Germany, Russia ana
one or two other countries may not
make national exhibits, that the 1ndl-
vidual manufacturers are getting IN
an exhibit from these countries which
will be a creditable one.
He states that his inspection has IN
snired him with much confidence in
the capacity of President Moore, and
the other executives to successfully
administer the great undertaking, ana
that he believes that the falr Will pc
n success commercially, artistically
and financially, and that they VIII
have the most beautiful exhibition

Give POND ADVICE
Governor Hodges Sends Out
Instructions to Farmers.
Detailed Information From
State Engineer Garhart.

Governor Hodges is preparing to
send out circulars and instructions
concerning the construction of reSer-
VOirS for water storage to all Kansas
interested in the pond movement De-
tailed information on the building of
dams for stock water is included in a
pamphlet written by w. s. Gearhart,
state engineer. Together with this
circular the governor will send a blue
print with a drawing of a typical lay
out for the efficient pond.
Among the general directions is the
suggestion that dams should be To-
Gated upon good solid earth, that it
width, and that the crown of the dam
sshould extend at least u feet above
the water line.
Other general information includes
the advice that crawfish holes, roots,
StumpS and decaying vegetable mat
ter should be grubbed out. that muck,
saturated earth and loose stone should
more than five pounds should be per-
n1itted to remain in the embankm ent,
and that materials placed in the en-
bankment should be placed in even.
horizontal layers and out to the full
width of the slopes.
An adequate spillwaY to discharge
water without damage to the structure
is suggested. Also that seepage must
be prevented by pudding the bottom
and sides of the water basin with the
addition of a light covering of straw
or manure before pudding as an ad-
d;tional method of waterprOOfing.

THE ST. LOUIS JAIL.
Holman says 1t Is Worse Than To-

The interior of Topeka's city Jail is a
palace compared with the city Jail at
St. Louis. according to Joseph Holman,
deputy sheriff. who returned from St
Louis last night with Ed Bryce, col
ored prisoner charged with Wite-deser-
ton.
The St Louis Jail is fine looking
a affair from the outside, but is just
about the worst possible inside. and it
has a musty. molding smell almost un-

prisoners roughly there. The prison
