CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET.

Chicago, March s.-NeTer in the history Of North
America were the wheat stocks known as the e.
portable surplus, enormous as is TO be seen
today. The wheat OF 24l 900 900 bushels in
the United States are gigantic to say the least
and 3i,0OOOoO bushels above the former record Of
2O7, 10000 bushels in 1907. In the farm reserves
and the visible there now about lO40oooOO
bushels more wheat than at this time last year
The Canadian estimate shows that 5000 100
bushels in farmers hands. This on top OF the
amounts shown by the government official figures on
Tuesday. makes record supply which is TO be
ut least partially disposed of before another crop
is available
The seaboard reported only DO 900 bushels Of wheat
sold today for shipment abroad and the transac-
tous at Chicago amounted to only . 200 bushels
scale with ample facilities for handling the grain
on the ocean, well for getting it to the
ocean.
Wheat closed at gains Of Z to y cents today,
following an errntic market with a bearish feeling
ard big open interest in the July future. Liver
pool spot wheat unchanged to ID lower, and
this caused some selling in this market
Corn advanced = to u cents today. There was
scattered liquidation by longs early but
the market absorbed these offerings and rallied
fully ~ cents from the bottom prices. The up-
turn in wheat was help to corn, but there
considerable strength in the latter gain because
OF the sharp advance in hogs.
Oats were a small fraction better. This grain
refused to follow the strength displayed by wheat
and corn.

"The Nicer. Do. . We'll"

No picture that has been brought to the valley in several months has attracted as much attention as 'The Ne'er-Do- Well" by Rex Beach. The screen story follows closely the book, save that a few hundred feet of scenes along the great ditch are in terpolated to give the patron a chance to see the great achievement at its best. The cast of "The Ne'er- De- Wellp is the same as made The Spoilers" and the universal verdict of those who visited Phoenix when the picture was there is that it is a much better entertainment than that splendid photoplay. The first performance is at 6:45 tonight at the Mesa opera house and two reels will be repeated for the benefit of those who do not arrive for the start of the picture.
