MESslNES RIDGE FIGHT is
.s.. ENDED BRITISH THINK

British Headquarters in France, via
London, June l0.-While still further
German counter attacks may be ex-
pected from time to time, the battle
of Messines Ridge may be said to be
ended. 1t stood as a definite opera
ton designed for certain purposes
and it remains to be seen whether
other offensive battles have been
planned in this particular sector of
the western front.
The taking of Messines Ridge has
robbed the Germans of the last COM
handing natural position they occu.
pied for so long opposite the British
lines. Bapaume and Vimy and Mes
sines ridges, as well as Monchy pla-
teau, five miles east of Arras, have all
been captured by the British during
the last three months and this has ma
terially changed the military situation
on this front.
When the Germans chose what they
are pleased to term permanent lines
OF defense in 1914 they occupied these
vantage points with a foreknowledge
of their strategic, tactical and obser-
walton values as keen as that possess
ed by any French military student.
The Germens had a thorough familiar
.lty with and detailed maps of every
square rod Of French territory over
which they proposed to fight and
when flung back from the Marne had
already selected the lines upon which
their trench Notifications were to be
built.
The British, who have had to en-
dure the handicap of lying under the
direct observation and fire of the Ger
mans for 80 long time, made no at
tempt to disguise the satisfaction
with which they now look to the fu.
.ture and what it holds in store Tor the
Germans who at last are virtually the
under dog. -, :.

WHEAT TRADE
WITHOUT TONE

Chicago, July 6.-Wheat: Trade in
wheat continues to be of an incense
quential sort. Shorts bid up prices at
times, and light offerings depress the
market Strength in coarse grains has
been a factor. So far there has been
little business in new wheat in cash
way.
Corn: Trade in July corn has been
stopped and the settling price fixed at
S1.65 With this action there was in
creased demand for the September
and December, the latter months be-
ing especially strong. The cash de-
mand continues strong while offer
ings are increasingly light. The Sit
uation in this respect shows no sign
of changing and gives the market
strong undertone all the time. More
rain was reported in the central Sec
tions, and the weather conditions the
last few days have been fairly nor
mall The crop is late, and with the
enormous premiums for old corn, the
demand for new corn in December is
likely to be very great. Foreign con-
ditions insure a big export call for
corn and this country being prac-
tically the only source of supply the
outlook is for big trade throughout
the coming year If tonnage Is avail
able. With these conditions. we expect
good buying support on all setbacks.
Oats: Prices have hardened SUB
stantially this week in sympathy with
corn, but crop prospects are good, and
while the cash market has been well
cleaned up, the fear of heavy. new
crop offerings makes the market
more debatable proposition at present
than is corn Cash prices hold at good
premiums. and the crop is late so that
small arrivals are expected this
month. The PRINCIPAL bullish argu-
ment is the relatively cheap prices
compared to corn and other grains
