PULP WOOD FROM CANADA.
Cargoes Arriving at Baltimore for
Paper Plants in West Virginia.

Wood is being brought from Canada
to Baltimore to be shipped to the paper
making plants in West Virginia. With
in the past week two cargoes of the
paper-making material have been
taken to Baltimore in foreign ships and
other cargoes are looked for. The first
steamer to arrive was the Nor. from
Gaspe bay, province Of Quebec, which
brought about 900 cords of the wood.
and later in the week the Donald line
steamer Thyra Menier came in with S5S
cords. 1t is stated that this receipt of
pulp wood from the Canadian forests
will make up, in a small measure, the
shortage in paper caused by the war.
During the spring and summer re-
ceipts of pulp wood from along the Po-
tomac were quite heavy at Alexandria
and many trainloads of the material
were sent to the West Virginia paper
mills and elsewhere. In the past month
or six weeks pulp wood receipts have
fallen off, though a considerable guam
tity is still being unloaded from ves-
sells at Alexandria and there loaded on
cars to be sent away. Several barges
are also reported at river points load
ing pulp wood for Elkton, Md, Will
mington, Del, and Philadelphia.

CHICAGO, September e4.-Althougf
wheat advanced today on account OF
higher prices at Liverpool. the gains soor
disappeared. There was considerable buy
ing here credited to European sources
but after this demand was satisfied the
call seemed to lag. The opening. which
was u to IN up, was followed by a
decline to last nights level.
Corn lacked support. Predictions OF
liberal receipts in the near future had a
weakening effect. After opening = on
to a like advance. the market underwent
a moderate setback all around.
Export brokers were busy in thu oats
crowd, but the market was governed
chiefly by the course of wheat. EARLY
advances gave way to a decline.
Trace In provisions was confined chieay
to lard, for which there was quite an
active. inquiry. Lower prices for hogs
were ignored.
Assertions by a leading authorit,
that from now on Canadian wheat
would probably undersell wheat from
the United States had a depressing In
fuence. The close was weak. 1ss t.

Refusal of the Brazilian government
to grant clearance to the steamer
Robert Dollar, which sought to raise
the American flag before leaving Rio

respondence, it was intimated today at

said the incident was not closed when
the steamer left port under the British
flag, but he did not say what course
this government might pursue. It-was
suggested. however. that the Brazilian
government might be asked for a
formal explanation. Clearance was re-
fused on the ground that recognizing
the change in registry might infringe
on Brazilian neutrality.
