WHEAT DEPRESSED
BY GENERAL SALES
ACTIVITY OF THE COMMISSION
HOUSES WIPES OUT ADVANCE
SCORED BY BULLS.

Chicago, March 9.-General selling of
wheat by commission houses today
wiped out gains due to moderately
bullish construction of the government
report on farm reserves. The selling did
not develop however, until the market
had made Il fair advance. Large world
shipments and perfect conditions for
the domestic winter crop counted
against the bulls. Opening prices were
a to &c higher and there was q slight
additional upuurn before the reaction
set in.
A decrease in the visible supply fig
ures lead afterward to a slight rally.
The close was steady to same as Sat-
urday night to 40 Nc higher.
Reserves. the smallest since 1904 had
only a temporary strengthening effect
on corn. Shipping conditions remained
disappointing. although prices at the
outset were a shade to Nc higher, the
market soon went under last nights
level
Stop loss orders and absence Of sup
port increased the weakness but the
close was steady 1 y off to bc up com
pared with Saturday night.
Sentiment regarding oats was almost
universally beariSh on account of the
government figures on stock being much
larger than expected. A sharp break
came rather at the start, and there was
no sign of any important rally
High prices for hogs carried provis-
ions upgrade. Grain weakness, however
brought about a subsequent fall.

CRU|zER LEAVES
FOR SALIVA CRUZ

SAN DIEGO, Cal, April IS
After one of the fastest coalings
ever made by a United States
war vessel, the cruiser Cleveland
is speeding south today from San
Diego, where for six hours she
took on fuel. Although officers
had nothing to say about it, the
opinion prevailed on board the
cruiser that the real destination
Of the Cleveland was Salina Cruz,
at the Pacific end of the Tehaun-
tepec railroad, and not Mazatlan,
as previously reported.

NO DATE SET
YET FOR THE
HEARING

Secretary Max Garretson for
Commissioner Mills said today
that no date had yet been an
nounced by Mills for the hearing
for William Turner, who was
fired by Chief McAlevy at the in
stance of Mills, Monday, as the
illumination of q long feud.
Under an old resolution passed
over two years ago when an en-
ploye is discharged and is given
a hearing at least two members
OF the civil service board shall sit
with the commissioner at the
hearing to act in an advisory ca.
pacity to him.
Turner insists he is going after
McAlevy and the war promises 20
be bitter and to a finish.
