The drys secured evidence OF law

A petition to Gov. Ferris, signed

Grain and Provisions

DETROIT, Sept. Wheat was Arm
and higher at home and abroad when
Fridays market opened. This is cred
tied to the better outlook as to the
railroad situation.
Active cash demand was felt in the
early trading and helped stimulate
oullishness. The early feeling was
very bullish. The two-dollar bulls
were numerous and there was a ten
dency to ignore the bearish conditions
that caused the recent heavy decline.
Liverpool was hrm and higher owing
TO active demand. scarcity OF Mani
toba offers. unfavorable Canadian
harvesting and grading reports. bad
weather in Europe and scarcity Of
both domestic and American Of
fers. Weather has been bad for a
long time over the United Kingdom
and farmers are not Offering thoir
wheat.
The war changes are losing their
bearishness, as dealers hgure the
chances OF the opening OF the Dar-
danelles. Even under the most favor
able conditions IL appears improbable
that the entente allies can secure
Russian wheat before the beginning
OF next year and Europe must do
some heavy importing before that
time. There ~ a heavy shortage that
will take most OF the American sur
I lus to hll. Attention has been held
