GOVERNOR OF ZONE

Colonel Soon After His
Acceptance,

President Wilson sent to the Senate
this afternoon the nomination of Col
George w. Goethals to be first governor
of the Panama Canal Zone.

Of Secretary Garrison no replies were
forthcoming to questions whether
Colonel Goethals' acceptance of the ap-
pointment reserved TO him the right to
retire at the end of year to accept
the offer of Mayor Mitchell to head the

Inquiries along this line at the White
House were referred to the Secretary Of

AS head of the canal government,
Colonel Goethals will exercise more

COURSE OF WEEK
in COMMODITIES
Grain and Cotton Markets
Active and Higher
Coffee FeatureleSS.

Considerable nervousness and excite
ment marked the trade In wheat during
the week Just ended and. as general
rule. there was brisk demand, with
offerings comparatively scarce. While
many traders were inclined TO take re-
ports of serious damage by chnch bugs
and the Hessian fly with good discount
the fact that the reports were persistent,
and at times i'm part corroborated, over
came the brilliant prospects in districts
not affected, and the upward movement
of prices became a feature. This move
ment continued. with only occasional re-
actions caused by profit taking, until the
end OF the week, when a weaker feeling
deyeloped, based on the conclusion that
even the loss of 100000 or 100000 BUSH
els would not, in view OF the otherwise
enormous crop, be disaster. In the
late trading shorts seemed TO think that
a rally was due, and there was an ad-
vance. in the face Of lower foreign mar
kets. which attracted long selling and
caused a sharp drop. Selling, however,
was checked by firm spot positions. and
the result was divided market. The
EXPORT trade has been busy, even under
the adverse conditions of rising prices,
importing C. ntries have been in the mar
ket freely, and worlds shipments have
shown a tendency TO Increase, although
they are smaller than year ago. At
present the bull side of the market APP
pears 10 be the popular side. and con-
servative traders are not inclined to look
for any marked break in prices on the
new crop, as a big consumption is ex-
pected as soon as the crop becomes avail
able.
Corn, also, has shown n firm and up
ward tendency, following some irregu-
larity early in the week. Shorts were
nervous at times and inclined TO cover,
especially as reports OF continued dry
weather in the West and heavy rains in
the Argentine. with limited domestic re-
ceipts. diminishing stocks and an ad-
vance IN Liverpool, were good bull argu-
ments. About the only checks 10 the ad-
vances were caused by reactions due to
profit taking. Receipts for the week were
not as large as had been expected. al
though about 10000 bushels over those
OF the previous week. and the cash mar
kets held firm and active. with prices in
most cases above limits of buyers.
oats also have felt the effects OF a
crop scare, damage reports having come
In from Iowa. Kansas. Indiana and Hi
nois, where rain has been badly needed
While the cash demand has been some
what sluggish the general tone OF the
market is bullish, with speculative de-
mand brisk ana receipts comparatively
small. Ii was noted that a cargo of &c.
900 bushels OF Canadian brought TO Chi
cago for delivery on May contracts were
found TO be under grade.

reached since early last winter, and the
bullish conditions were aided by the Cen
sus Bureau statements that crop OF
Is 200, 900 to Is, 900 bales would be needed
to meet the demand based on recent
American consumption, coupled with a
fear that il would be impossible to raise
that amount. There were some reactions
In the late trading, due to profit taking
sales, but from these the market rallied,
and the last trades showed a difference
of about twenty points between the de-
cline at the opening and the gain at the
close. While II is altogether too early TO
kill the crop, IT is admitted that II has
a late start. and the prediction OF low
condition estimate by the National Gin
ners' Association sent last prices upward
Liverpool while doing a good spot bust
ness early. reported falling off late in
the week. and the high prices and firm
ness in the Manchester goods market
checked business. A feature Of the local
trade has been the broadening OF the
speculative demand, outsiders having
come into the market in numbers sufii-
cient to have an effect on prices. The
weather, however, has been the dominant
force, and will continue to be for some
time. good rains In the Carollnas and
Georgia, and lessening OF the wetness
in Texas and the Southwest being needed
to check the upward tendency OF prices.
1t IS to be remembered that there Is still
time for replantng where 1t may be
needed. and with fairly good weather for
the next two months there Will be about
IS, O0O, 600 acres under seed, which Will
beat the record OF 1918.

Coffee Dull, But Steady.

There has been a continuation or the
dulness which has marked the conee
trade for the last few weeks. and while
trade has been slack and price changes
narrow there was a gradual advance In
prices of futures Only few points at
a time. IL is true, but sufficient to show
that holders were not unduly alarmed at
existing conditions. and not inclined 10
over enthusiasm on the selling side
Hardly anything is. expected until the
new crop comes on the market, and the
trade here Is practically marking time.
II is not unusual for the coffee market to
show slow, but steady. gains for week
and then lose them all in one days trad
ing, so the present state Of affairs excites
no special comment. Considerable discus
sion has been aroused by the action OF
the board of managers OF the local ex-
change in appointing committee 10

a futures market for trading in raw
sugar on the Coffee Exchange. This has
recalled the old Arbuckle-H ayemeyer
coffee and sugar contest, and not rev
members OF the coffee trade look askance
at the idea OF mixing things up
In the country produce markets there
has been the usual amount of fluctuations
in price incident 70 the incoming or new
lines of goods and the passing OF out-of-
season stuff. Butter and eggs have shown
symptoms of weakness. and under limits
OF shippers large quantities have gone
into the coolers. Southern vegetables
have ruled comparatively low. except
where new goods have arrived and
brought high prices. Again complaint Is
made of either the poor quality or bad
packing OF considerable OF the stuff sent
here, and refusals. which always mean
trouble with shippers. have been I'M

The livestock and dressed meat mar

being offset by reduction later The
advance was on the higher grades, lower
