MAKES BIG ADVANCES

Railroad Mems Demands Awak-
ems New Life in List.
Rails Are Leading, With Sharp
Gains-Industrials Share in the
Improved Conditions.

NEW YORK. August Ear from
being adversely affected by yesterday S
unfavorable crop report, the market
opened today with general show of
firmness, followed by Il pronounced
strength.
Munitions. equipments. motors and
Mexicans were materially better. with
further gains in shipping issues.
International PAPER preferred added
another substantial gain to it's recent
advances in connection with dividend
prospects. and United Cigar Stores ad-
creased disbursement.
Industrial Alcohol rose > points, and
rails, including grangers and Pacifics,
were measurably higher.
New High Record.
Marines led all other speculative
favorites during the forenoon, trading
in the preferred stock. which was sub
ject to much profit taking. far exceed
ing the combined dealings in half a
dozen other active issues.
Marine preferred made an extreme
gain of / y with only small fraction
for the common. but Atlantic. Gulf and
West Indies rose to a new high record.
United States Steel, which was un-
outset. made some headway later. but
rails were inclined to yield. the Harri-
mans. Atchison and Baltimore and
Ohio falling under yesterdays final
prices.
Extreme dullness prevailed at mid
day.
= Rails Make Sudden Shift.
decided and positive change came
ha
hours of the afternoon, which seemed
to show that insiders had information
that indicated there would be no rail-
road strike. On no other suggestion
would the rails have come out from
their retirement and assumed the
leadership, scoring such great ad-
vances.
While there was no information in
the gossip dispatches, the manner in
which Reading advanced from 95 to
9S, and Union Pacific from 1889 to
1898, was capable of no other inter-
probation.
Other rails made good advances, and
the movement extended to the indus
trials also.
Advances Are Extended.
Advances were extended in the last
hour and the volume of trading was
many times greater than on any day
for several weeks.
Prolonged vacations of operators and
brokers were peremptorily ended by
wire and phone calls, the action of the
market being sufficient to warrant
quick returns.
Gains were IL on Southern Pacific,
2b on Union Pacific, practically points
on Reading, Y on Canadian Pacific, a
point on Baltimore ami Ohio. 1N on
Steel common, which sold to SSh; 2
points on Industrial Alcohol, on Mex

Crucible and nearly points on a num-
ber of other industrials.
While there were slight recessions,
the closing was strong and near the top
of the day.

WHEAT MARKET TAKES
SENSATIONAL JUMP
Advances More Than Eight Cents
Bushel on Federal Report-Crop
Losses Are Un6erestimated.

CHICAGO. August 9.-Excited trading
and advances of more than cents
bushel in the value of wheat resulted to-
day from the United States government
report showing that the huge crop losses
of late had been generally underesti-
mated. Dealers gave chief attention TO
the fact that the yield this season would
be but little above domestic require
mentS, and that European needs, greater
than ever before. would have to be main
ly supplied by the surplus carried over
in this country from last year. Most OF
the consequent strain on the mar
came at the opening of business, but the
swift gains in prices were not mu m
diminished later, and in some cases were
even enlarged.
Opening quotations. which varied from
AS, to S higher, with September at 1.3S1:
to 1.41, and December at 1.42 to 1.45, were
followed by temporary setbicks from
the top side of the range, but in scme
instances 4 additional upturns.
Independent Corn Strength.
Corn developed independent strength,
owing to the bullish nature of the gov
report however. was not nearly so much
of surprise regarding corn as wheat
After opening u TO 2a2is higher, the corn
ma r1set eased off to a slight extent
Oats mounted with other grain Ad-
vances, though, were not of unusual eX-
tent .
In provisions the bullish effect of
higher prices on grain and hogs was the
chief factor Nevertheless the market
kept within normal limits.
Azlvices that the weather in Canada
was muggy and that black rust dam
age therefore, would be likely to in
crease led afterward to higher and
higher wheat prices Foreigners were
said to be active buyers both for inn
mediate shipment and future delivery.
The close was excited at 10ts to 1O9s
net advance, with September 1.44A to
l.44kand December Las to 1.49A.
Damage reports from Iowa tended
later to lift the corn market higher
than before. The close was strong at
1%a1a4 to 2asa21a net advance.

When eyes fire up with martial

Where Relationship Lies
1t is through the mother OF
John Benz, his father, that
Friedrich Benz traces his rela-
tionship to Won Hindenburg.
John Benz mother was Eliza
beth Ra Molie before her mar
riage to John Benz, grandfather
of Friedrich. Although a Prus-
sian woman, she had French
blood in her ancestry as her
name shows.
Elizabeth Ra Molie's sister
married a Hindenburg and be-
came the grandmother of the
present field marshal, whose
complete and official name is
Paul Won Beneckendorf und Won
Hindenburg.

ton of officers for the coming
year was about the only bust
ness transacted. There will be
no change in the management
or officers of the company. Off

C. w. Hermann, Fairfax, presi-
dent; B. C. Schueller, secretary
and treasurer; directors Frank
Murray, Bird Island; JOS. R..
Keefe, North Redwood; Thos.

| The members of the company
expressed themselves as more
than pleased with the report of
the Mahnomen Office, submitted
by Mr.. Schueller, showing the
business transacted during the
past year, sales Of land being
only $50 acres less than during
1914, which was the banner year
for land sales in every section
of the northwest. Owing to con-
ditions prevailing during the
past season land sales in every
section of the country have been
unusually small. The record of
the sale of several thousands of
acres Of land, mostly improved
farms, in 1914, being practical
ly equalled by the company in
1915, when conditions were so
uncertain, is most satisfactory
to the members of the company,
and is of general interest, show
