CHICAGO GRAIN

CHICAGO, Oct. 17.-Sensational ad- vances In the value of wheat resulted today from wild rushes to buy which accompanied big broadening out of export business The market closed excited at nearly the topmost figures reached. Net gains were 5% to cents a bushel. with December t163h to A and May sl.64S to % Corn fin ished l ss to 1& 7s higher, and oats up lS to %. In provisions the final range varied from five cents decline to rise of 15 cents.
 Persistent buying on the part of for eigners tended to carry the wheat market upward from the start. but it was not until the last hour of the session that prices went -rocketing in good earnest. Estimates after the close indicated that. since yesterday Europeans had acquired more than 2.500,000 bushels of wheat from the relatively meager supply in the United States In this connection reports were current that the British govern ment forced vessel rates on the At lantic down from 2S cents a bushel to 10 cents. and was bending all energies to lessen the cost otherwise of hand ling wheat shipments from this coun- try Such reports put shorts and other purchasers into a turmoil that was but little if any abated when the gong cleared the pit.
 Corn was lifted by enlarged export demand. Oats, although strong and active, seemed to be merely paralleling the action of other cereals

spring when the storeroom of the firm was entered and goods stolen, seems certain. The frame shed in the rear was entered in the same way but this time instead of confining their efforts to the storeroom they pried open a window and effected an en- tarnce into the store proper. Here they took up a general collection of mems wearing apparel. That they were thoroughly acquainted with the store and it's stock. is certain from the way they chose only the best of goods located here and there over the room Suits, silk shirts and silk hosiery were the most alluring and an assort- ment of apparel from other apart ments was added to this. Hyder con- serVatively estimates his loss at s350 to s400, and on top of that the fact that many of the articles stolen can not be replaced for months to come.
 In the rear of the stores on either side of the Hyder establishment. parties were sleeping and three or four diff
 ferent people who reside in that
 neighborhood claim tkat they heard
 the intruders. but never thought at
 the time that burglars were operating.
 The efforts of the police yesterday failed to reveal any clues.
 Both the town of Tempe, and Hyder Brothers, are offering a re- wards of $25.00 each for the appre-
 hension of the guilty parties.

CACTUS RUBBER FINE

From the various tests that have been made of the products extracted from the cactus by the company or ganiZed for that purpose it is evil dent that the claims made for the gum and rubber are not exaggerated. C. Fred Bracket has just returned from the coast where L. B. Johnson oe the company was having the tests made MT Bracket says that he has not a dollar in the company and has no personal interest to gain in mak- ing the statement that the chemists of the tire companies who made the tests waXed very enthusiastic as 70 the quality of the product for tire work. That it has an adhesive qual- ity far superior to other rubbers when it comes to holding the different lay CTS of tire together Another inter- esting fact about the plant is that it grows readily from pieces stuck into the ground and irrigated, thus giving assurance that should the desert SUD- plies ever give out. it would be easy to maintain the growth in abundant quantities

AMERICAN SHIPS
SAIL FOREIGN
WATERS

The American flag, which before
the European war was seldom seen in
foreign ports, Is once more coming
back into its own as I'm the years be-
fore the Civil War, when the Ameri-
can merchant fleet ruled the waves.
Before the war practically the only
vessels flying the American flag were
the American line and Red Star line
steamers to Great Britain and Bel
GUM. the Pacific Mail steamers to
Asia and the Oceanic line to Austria
liza, but now all this has been changed
and the American flag is becoming a
familiar sight in foreign harbors.
The number of American vessels now
plying to foreign countries total 1876
with a gross tonnage of 597,363.
The number to each country be-
tween January and May 80 is as
f0llouo.
