firm CLOSE FOR
new YORK LIST
Net Gains Recorded IN Many
Quarters, Despite Discour-
aging Crop Report.

New York, Aug. S-Although the gov
ernment crop report issued this afternoon
disclosed a disaster in the spring wheat
field, the stock market has discounted
and closed Arm with net gains in many
quarters. The market was broader. too,
than it has been for weeks. Many
standard stocks showed life. Most of
the days work, OF course, was in
specialties, and most OF the buying was
for the account OF professional traders
who took advantage Of the bad crop re-
ports to cover their contracts.
According to the crop report there will
be s44. .Ooo 900 bushels less of grain In the
United states this year than last Re
liable reports from Canada show that
the spring wheat disaster has extended
TO that country so that the total shrink
age in grain for the year Will be not less
than l.lCO. 900, Oa0 bushels.
II is possible that these figures do not
measure up the worst. The government
crop report is dated August l but, as
matter Of fact. the figures are gathered
about a week earlier by the farmers
so that it really should be dated July ..
Most Of the damage was done at the
end Of July and the bad conditions have
grown worse.
Therefore, It is within reason to ex-
pect that even favorable conditions could
not bring the crops back even to the con-
port. That report shows a shrinkage Of
5000 900 bushels in corn and 100000
bushels in winter wheat, l5S,Oo0, 90
bushels spring wheat $4,000 900 bushels
in oats and 100000 in barley.
Immense Carry-Over.
Owing to the bumper crop OF last year
following a bumper crop in 1914, the car
ry-over this year is 40O.COcOOO bushels Of
grain greater than normal Therefore
the specific disaster is not a general one.
The North American continent will have
about the normal quantity OF grain.
Wheat prices were today more than 30
cents a bushel above those OF July l. A
wild opening is expected tomorrow morn
ing
Cotton went more than a dollar higher
today. The outlook is for very fancy
prices for all farm products.
OF tOdays stock movements those in
mercantile. marine, motors and paper
shares attracted most attention. The ad-
vance in marine was due to the informa-
tioa thar no notes would have to be is
sued in connection with the reorganiza-
tio1.
The movement gainst shorts in motors
was begun according 10 schedule today
J. gained in force " to the close and
Eo1le Of rhe professionals are in a serious
Ircd.cament.
Sugars were stronger and munitions
are we'll rurcha ased.
II can be stated on the authority OF a
director of the International Paper Com
Iany that the directors. next meeting will
t76e action on rrfUnding the back divi-
deGds on their preferred stock
Some extra is expected also by the
consolidated Gas stockholders.
