CORN TAXES THE
 LEAD IN CHANGING
Dr0uth Damage and Bullish Government Report Pre-
 pare Way for Bulge

Chicago. July 9.-Corn took the lead in changing today, both in actoivity and
 strength. Drouth damage as well as the
 bnllish construction pla aeed on the govern mens report, prepared the way for a de-
 cded bulge. The market closed strong,
 ss42Lc above last night. In wheat the
 outcome was unchanged to is6hc lower,
 and for oats a gain of Isdpiac to ssc. Pro-
 visions wound up with 21sd621sc net ad- vance.
 The fact that the government estimate
 of the yield proves much under what the trlde expected was the origin of the stam- pede to buy corn, then came damage
 reports from southern Illinois, other parts
 of the Ohio valley, northern Texas and Oklahoma.
 Although wheat broke sharply as a re- suit of the large crop indicated by the
 government report, the setback was al- most entirely overcome. Extremely high temperatures in the northwest were ac- eompanied by the first authoritative re- ports of serious damage from black rust | from Mitchell. S. D.
 Unfavorabe weather and the corn
 bulge governed oats. Shorts in July pork were squeezed. Rising prices for hogs and corn helped give the rest of the provision | list a moderate upturn.
 Future quotations were as follows:

HOPEFUL FEELING IN STOCK MARKET Suggestions of Settlement of Federal Reserve Situation
 Amicable to All

New YoYrk, July 9.-Securities of rec ognized merit again were clearly disposed today to break away from recent depress- ing influences. Additional low records by the Gould issues, Rock Island collateral bonds and New Haven and Chesapeake and Ohio shares were without much ef- feet upon the seasoned dividend and in vestment shares. The further decline in the Goulds was still without definite ex- S.planation.
 7 To the glowing outlook and the point of view adopted by the administration at measure the more hopeful feeling ex- pressed today. Suggestions of a settle ment of the federal reserve situation In a manner satisfactory to conservative financial interests also were helpful.
 Trustworthy advices pointed to marked improvement soon in the steel industry It is expected that the tonnage report oi the United Sattes Steel corporation fol June will show a slight increase. Some of the larger iron mills are said to b' looking orders for August and September delivery at advances of $1 to $2 over re- tc cent prices.
 ' About the only discordant note came from abroad. Irregular weakness wal shown by London. Paris cables indicated that the new French loan had failed tt stimulate any degree on enthusiasm.
 The local bond list showed varied deal ings, wit ha few changes, except in the Goulds. Total sales, par value, were s1,S04,000. United States government bonds were unchanged on call.

COTTOkOFF UNDER
 HEAVY OFFERINGS
Expectations of More Rain in Western Belt Main
 ly Responsible

New Orleans, July 9.-Cotton was steady at the rise in the morning session, show ing a gain of to 10 points at the high est, but in the afternoon fell off under increased offerings based chiefly on ex- pectations of more rain in the western belt. At the lowest the trading months were to points under the final quota tions of yesterday. The close was un- changed to 8 points down, compared with yesterdays close.
 Reports of crop damage west of the Mississippi through drouth and high tenn peratures were the main sustaining infu- ences of the morning. More attention was paid to Texas than to any other section of the belt. Buyers of the morning turned sellers in the afternoon, when il looked as if Texas was about to get a little more rain than has been visiting the state.
 In the morning there was much talk of an oversold market which did much to bring in fresh buying orders for long ac- count

MORE FAVORABLE WEATHER REPORTS Early Advance in Cotton With Close Steady F
 Points Off

New York, July 9-More favorable weather reports from the southwest cost the cotton market today's early advance and the close was steady at a net decline of 12 points to an advance of points, near months being relatively easy, while new crop positions were points lower to 4 points higher than last nights closing figures.
 There seemed to be considerable ner- vousness over the situation in Texas dur ing the early trading. Liverpool futures made steady showing. Private reports again indicated that there had been scat tering showers in the drouthy sections, but the trade feared that the precipitation had been insufficient, and new crop months worked about to Il points net higher during the morning, with January leading the advance.
 Demand slacl1ened after the close of Liverpool. but the market held fairly steady until after the publication of the detailed weather report for the Houston district This showed good rains at three or four points in addition to scattering showers at several stations, and a lower average of temperatures.
 Declines met some opposition yearly in the afternoon, but the market became un- settled toward the close under liquidation by some of the early buyers, with old crop positions selling about to F points net lower. while the new crop eased back to about or a shade under last night s final figures

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York. July 9.-(Specia1.) )-Liver-
 pool this morning was stronger than due and there was considerable ar
 bitrage buying in this market which
 held prices very steady through the early trading.
 Subsequently the market reacted again on the publication of the detailed reports which showed further showers in Texas. Some of them as, for example, at Snyder and Temple. affording a good rain. On the other hand the state has not been thoroughly relieved and we think the market would show con- siderable resistance at this level un less there are more general rains in the western belt.
 At the 12-cent level there is likely to be fair demand and we are ap- preaching the time when crop reports arc likely in the nature of things to
 show deterioration as the plant puts on fruit.
 The general feeling tonight is rath- CT pessimistic in sharp contradiction of the very bullsh sentiment which pre- vailed locally some three weeks ago.

A Bandit Now Chicken Thief

Abe Buzzard, the Welsh mountain out law, notorious horse and chicken fancier and sometimes evangelist, who has spent s7 of his 66 years of life behind prison walls, was arrested here by Detectives Hallisey and McGovern, charged with practicing his favorite transgresson of Reading special to the Philadelphia Pub lie Ledger. The veteran convict was ap- parently hale and hearty. and his physi- cal appearance was of the sort associated with outdoor life, his face being tanned and his physique indicating wiriness characteristic of athletic life.
 The special charge for which Buzzard was arrested was the theft of 100 me fowls from the coop of Justice James of St. Peter's, Chester county on May G. He was implicated by Samuel Graham hus- band of Buzzard's stepsister, and Georeg Taylor, who was arrested by the local police short time after the robbery They are now awaiting trial in West Chester.
 According to Graham the trio operated on a wholesale basis. He took a license for huckstering purposes. Trips were made into the country by motor car and team nightly. so the accused said, and the chickens brought to this city and dis posed of to local produce dealers.
 Buzzard, at the police station, denied all knowledge of the theft. saying it was a conspiracy on the part of his stepsster and her husband to shift the blame on him. He said his reputation was re- sponsible for his arrest, and that the po- lice were bounding him.
 In commenting upon his prison record Buzzard declared that he served 37 years
 More than half of this was for crimes I never committed" said Abe to the newspaper men.
 The Buzzard brothers. years ago, led daring gang on the Welsh mountains, and were often arrested and imprisoned. Ike brother of Abe, is totally, blind and Is now in the Berks county almshouse.
