New York, Aug. 19-President
Huerta's demand for immediate recog-
milton by the United States was thor
ough surprise and caused general de-
cline in our stocks in London, but the
losses are not large excepting in one
or two cases. No particular anxiety
is felt there. Some very good authori-
ties have favored recognition of Huer-
ia, as other nations have done. By
such people Huerta is recognized as a
strong man, although the circumstanc-
es of his administration were object,
ed to. 1t appears that moderate rains
have fallen in Kansas and Missouri,
which-are likely to be the beginning OF
a much to be desired change. We are
nearing the end of the calendar. Corn

PRAISE HIS IMAGINATION.
"Senor de la Coralla has in past
years attracted much attention to him
self by antagonizing the weather bu-
reau. At different times he has made
predictions for weeks in advance
which have worked out to the letter.
"In his last effort, however, the
senior went further than ever before.
He tried to dope out the coming activ-
tiles in atmospheric pressures to the
point where he could say about what
time the meteorological effects were
going to cause downfall of aeroplan-
lists.
HE had figured out that the air con-
ditions were going to be responsible
for spontaneous explosions of powder
magazines. He forecast the disturb.
ance of carbUreted hydrogen gas in
the seams of mines which was going to
occasion terrific explosions.
"On many occasions he has chal.
Ienged the government weather men
to meet him before scientific bodies in

where. He is willing to give full ex
PLANTATION of his weather philosophy to
the Nobel institute or the British AS
sociation for the Advancement OF
Science.
HE wants his system to become the
common property of the world. He
proposes to educate the human race
to the point where knowledge of TIE
weather months in advance viii be
available. In the opinion Of the gov
eminent weather authorities the bes
thing Senior de Ia Coraha has is his

Country Is Alarmed.

Chicago, Aug. 19.-The country is
over the short corn crop.
Strong markets destined to run 60
more days. Crop approximations are
mere guesses. There were no July
rains of consequence and an enormous
amount of stalks will be ''earless." 1t
is now an earless market.
The usual feeding and shipping
movements of grain are badly twisted.
Kansas is already overlapping Iowa
for oats. In the central west small
cluster of states comprising possibly
80 per cent of the corn belt is prepar-
ing to meet the 1914 demand from
all sections. The seven surplus states
have dwindled to four surplus states.
December corn upturn of 14ss from
Sc on July II is one of the largest ad'
vances on record. Duration of this up.
ward move extends over 81 days and
is just about a new record. A strick,
en- corn crop is usually very very
small crop.
An oats crop of 9OO,OOO,OO0 to l..
00O, 1909, 900 is a very moderate ad
junct to a small corn crop. Most watch
ers of the Patches believe the govern
ment hay estimate is worthless-too
high.
The average speculative opinion is
useless in this situation. The market
continues to sound the alarm that the
country is alarmed.
May corn, oats and wheat should
be accumulated. Orders for corn anC
oats should be prepared and forward

who was going to give the United
States weather bureau cards and
spades" and then SHOW it up" on prog
nostications, batted 900 last week, for
which he promised much, says the Chi

First among his meteorological find

er delueed. Weather observations
failed to show general rains in any
part of the country during the week
Second was forecast of disasters,
such as powder and mine explosions,
that were to accompany the low baro.
metric pressures in the storm areas.
Not single explosion was reported.
Third, he pictured an important
storm that was to creep out of the
Rockies and sweep to the Atlantic
coast. 1t was to be a storm with a
bosom full of fiery thunderbolts and
it was to be preceded by a dense man
tie of gloom. That did not material.

the backbone of the dry spell which
had been doing such damage On that

say were fulfilled. Along with hi:
other promised phenomena he ar
