The southwest has no corn or con-
sequence and their prices will remain
high for six months. Chicago will have
IL. 100000 corn in a few days. but this
corn will be the only stock OF impor-
lance in the United States.
The east will buy slowly right along.
but the reserve report will likely es-
tablish farm corn in the central west
on a fat en- to 65 cents basis as an av-
erage by end of this month.
Farm corn ideas in the west will
stiffen as a result of the report. I'm
mediate fluctuations in corn will de-
pend on cash news. but the chance OF
a serious March 70 April l decline
apparently can be dismissed.
On the basis of foreign needs and
home reserves May wheat should hold
current levels. Europe will evidently
note that our surplus, while enough. Is
not ample. The report is probably
bullish on spring and hard wheat Red
wheat reserves are sufficient.
The corn report should have last
ing effect on provisions. Feeders of
swine can say au revoir 10 cheap corn.
The report suggests that May wheat
will hold the current premium over
uly. while crop reports continue favor
able. The middle west has liberal old
supplies of wheat and this may tend
to keep a fair stock of wheat at Chi
cage.
Cash oats gossip is bearish and g.
000. 900 Canadian oats are claimed to
be at lake ports. Corn reserves in
seven surplus states are guessed at a
paltry 400. 000, 00O-lowest on record |
since the days of easy 2.7OO. 200. 900 to /
3. 100. 0OO. 900 corn consumption. Very |
small corn receipts on the way.
There are no reserves of corn worth |.

that total is 5O,O0O.00O below what |

zentine corn 70 a Chicago feedman.
This looks" an advertisement.
The corn bear naturally compares
with the season of 1909-10. when on
March reserves of $4,000, 900. May

il weather is fine. II corn fails TO
break Tuesday or Wednesday, the old
leaders will probably take the aggres-
sive side in working for another bulge.
Technically, the corn market should
be vel levened up and ready for resil-
fence. Provisions are sold on bulges
by those who believe cellar supplies
are too large.
The Mexican. Brazilian and English
home rule situations are acute. This
may not affect the grains, but will keep
securities in sale and bulge sale po-
sition. Pressure on corn during Mon

Is Burton 6. Morrill,
Cup Cony' S Property?

The Burton C. Morrill, cup which was
to be presented to the best three out of
FIVE in the annual relay race between
Cony High and Gardiner High is now
claimed as the property of Cony. Last
year was the first time that these two
teams ran. Cony won, thereby winning
leg of the cup. This year Cony sup
posed that II was to run Gardiner High,
but when the team reached Brunswick
Saturday Gardiner failed to put in an ap-
pearance. Consequently the red and
white was obliged to run Brunswick
High, which in the season Of 1918 won
the championship of the State. In spite
of the fast company that the Augusta
team was competing against, 1t made an
exceptionally fine showing, the time be-
ing one minute and 4s seconds. According
to Capt Perley Turner and Manager Ell
well, Gardiner sent no word why 1t did
not send its team to Brunswick and
therefore the boys feel as though the cup
is their property. This announcement
was made by one of the officials at the
meet Saturday, although is has not been,
as far as is known. confirmed by Burton
c. Morrill,.

SAMUEL MANLEY
MAKES SUGGESTIONS
ABOUT BASEBALL
Sporting Editor. Kennebec Journal;

Sporting Editor, Kennebec Journal:
Letter by A Fan in Thursdays Jour-
nal listened good to me and am sure
il also did to the many, who had so
much clean, healthy fun at the base
ball games last summer. There are
two suggestions l will make for the
consideration of Augusta fans. The
level SPACE on the Reuel Williams
athletic field is not large enough and
the cast end, cut up as it is by holes,
hummocks and bitches, is positively
dangerous. Maurice Appleton and any
other left fielder can testify to that.
There is land enough as the field ex-
tends about 10 feet east of the level
part. Let US all get together and pc
tition the next city government to ap-
propriate enough money. about $1,000, to
level the whole east end of the field.
What dirt has to be removed can be
used to make the rest of the field
more level. If this can be done, and
it can if we all get together, the dia-
mend can be put on the east end of
the field SO the sun will not shine in
the players eyes. Another thing, we
should have a fence that will keep out
the self-eected dead heads. My sub
scription of s25 is ready when the di-
reetors want it.

LEACUERS
MEET TO DIVIDE THE
PLAYERSAT CHICAGO

Chicago, March 1.-The Federal
League yesterday divided it's 210 ball
players; made preliminary plans for
it's pcnnant race, and organized fl
nal raid on it's rivals-the raid which
was planned to land in it's ranks sew
en- of the players now finishing their
and White Sox.
This was announced Saturday night
when the club owners of the outlaw"
league took brief recess after a
meeting that lasted all day and threat
ened to last over Sunday. The mana
gers of seven teams met first and
showed their lists Of players. Otto
Knabe, manager of Baltimore, was ill
and forced to stay at home.
There are seven ball players on the
world tour who are wanted by the
Federals and next week number of
leaders of the new league, headed by
President Gilmore will be at. the pier
in New York to meet them when they
land
The players are: Iris Speaker of the
Boston Americans; Sam Crawford of
DclTOlt, VINO Is WdIttOu " iioho5o siO
Brooklyn team; Catcher Wingo, St.
Louis Nationals; Lee Magee, st, Louis
Nationals Mike Doolan, the Philadel-
phia National shortstop, Outfielder
Evans, st. Louis Nationals, and Pitch
err Leverenz of the ST. Louis Ameri-
cans. President Gilmore does not be-
lieve that the efforts of his league to
get some Of these men will be fruitless,
as he expects to offer them induce
ments which they can hardly resist, he
said.
A schedule meeting probably will be
held in Baltimore the last of March in
stead of early in the month, as was
planned last week.
President Gilmore. explaining that his
statement did not mean that the Federal
League and organized baseball had
reached a peace agreement, declared he
was confident Catcher William Kilifer
and Pitcher George Kahler. as we'll as
others. would join the Federal League
teams which signed them, and that there
would be no trouble over it.
I'VE do not expect that either the Fed
eral League or any OF the leagues or
clubs in organized baseball will have to
seek redress in the courts" e'said, but
we do expect <Killifer and the rest of the
men we have signed to be with our
teams"
:, Killifer is reported to have Joined the
