GRAIN MARKETS 7 ADVANCE STRONGLY Wheat Leads, Scoring 4hc Net Gain-Corn 1Ac
 to 2%c

Chicago, August 1S.-Board of Trade markets, inspired mainly by a marked improvement in the export situation advanced strongly today, led by wheat which scored a net gain of 455c. Corn advanced IA @2Mc; oats 1A @11sc, and provisions 10@25c.
 Wheat was its lowest at the opening on local selling. but strength developed immediately. The bullish factors were the liberal purchase by New York ,banlxs of bills for export grain; the ar rangement whereby one New York bank will finance shipments to England and another those to France; the sale al New York yesterday and today of one million bushels to England; smaller ex- port sales at Chicago and Kansas City, good flour in demand; disappointing threshing returns from the northwest and reduction in the worlds avail able supply of e217, 1000 bushels as com- pared with 7,000,000 bushels increase 8 year ago.
 In corn there were the additional in- fluences of dry weather reports from Kansas, Missouri and Iowa confirmed by state and federal authorities and Night country offerings of old corn-r
 There was big market for oats, stimulated by export demand trading was on the broadest scale since the be- ginning of the war in Europe Heavy sales to esEern exporters were re- ported The country showed no dispo- sition to sell.

DEPARTMENT HEADS
 MAY PICK GRIDIRON

West Point. N r.. August is.-The prob lem of choosing a sridiron for tho 1914 football game between Annapolis and West Point may be left in the hands Of Secretaries Daniels and Garrison, in the opinion of West Poin' officials. The Ath- letic council here expressed little sur prise today that no suitable field for stag Ing the game could be found in Washing ton, as announced.
 Army officials viewed this latest turn as vindication of their stand that the Nav York polo grounds Is the logical field for the Army-Navy football game.
 Philadelphia, August 1S.--A committee of 150 Philadelphans will go to Washing ton in an effort to obtain this year g Army-Navy football match for this city in the case the final decision k left in the hands of Secretaries Daniels and Garri- son. This announcement was made to- night. The management of the Philadel- phia league baseball club has offered Shibe park for the game.

MEAT QUOTATIONS
 STILL GOING UP Advance of One Cent On Pork Loins-Creamery
 Butter Also Up

Business on Morris avenue continued good. with prices firm. Pork loins and creamery butter, however. advanced lc each, Joins now being quoted at Poe whole sale and creamery butter at 32c per pound. There is no indication of lower prices on meats in the near future Some Of the dealers state that the present high quotations would obtain even though there was no European war being waged at the present time; in other words, that the high prices are due to a natural scarcity In supply, and not to a prospective foreign demand
 The poultry and produce markets are quite active, and the volume of sales is large. No change in price was reported yesterday in this line. Despite the un- certainty of the supply of lemons, the greatest part of which are produced in Italy, Birmingham prices remain un- changed. the demand being rather slack. This might be attributed to the present exorbtant price of sugar.
