CHICAGO GRAIN.

Chicago. Sept a.-Corn displayed heavinesss
and the market showed the effects OF the re-
cent heavy buying and the elimination OF the
short interest. It was an ovsr-bought market
and despite the strenuous Efforts Of the local
bull leaders TO support the market their ef-
forts went TO naught and the close was at the
low point Of the day and y to x cents lower
than the day before
Cash corn started the day unchanged, but
later n half Of a cent advance was paid Tor
some grades Receipts were not SO heavy.
In oats. trade was not large and the trend
Of prices was rather irregular. The September
showed a rather firm tone. which was quite
unexpected. Offerings were fairly heavy.
The cash market was a little frner and
CLOSED unchanged to y cent higher.
Provisions were irregular Pork closed IA
cents lower to % cents higher. lard was N to
l2la cents higher and ribs were Is cents lower
to s. cents higher. The strength was mainly
in the January product and the buying Of this
delivery was due To the big government pur-
chssss Of meat. Realizing sales were heavy
and this tended to hold the advance in check.

Capital Traction Stock Active Fea-
ture in Yesterdays Session.

Tightness OF money. and the fear
that the prevalent condition will be
heightened by the financing OF gov
ernmental loans. Treasury certificates.
war certificates and liberty bonds,
calling for billions. of dollars. has
caused New York bankers to consider
means and methods by which the
situation may be relieved.
= There has been some discussion
among them on the possibility and
edvisability Of securing an amend
iment to the Federal Reserve act
which would make stock exchange
collateral eligible for rediscount at
Federal Reserve Banks. In short,
notes secured by stocks OF railroads
and other corporations enjoy the same
privilege that is accorded to COM
mercial paper.
I This class Of securities Is now
barred by the Federal Reserve laws
notwithstanding the fact that trust
Companies and banks generally con-
slider them the very best collateral.
While there was a larger volume OF
trading on the Washington Stock Ex-
change yesterday, the sales were not
OF a character to give any new phase
TO market conditions.
The real feature Of the session was
the indisposition on the part of
brokers to make bids for the average
utility bonds. although asking prices
were about the same. but. in many
cases. there was a disposition to pass
the call on these securities.
Capital Traction stock was the
active feature Of the trading, II forty
i've shares in three lots can be

locally applied remedies alone IS be-
caus, it is a blood diseas-. and comes
from millions OF TRY Catarrh germs
which find lodgment in the blood.
Unless the system is In such perfect
condition as to be able to throw them
off these germs multiply rapidly un-
al the blood becomes thoroughly IN

The irritation OF the membranes
and air passages. which become
stopped up and make It difficult 10
breathe. are only manifestations o,
the trouble and not the disease itself.
The germs make their attack on these
delicate parts Of the body because
here they find the least resistance. and
hence they can easily set up their
work OF destroying the tender tissues
The use Of sprays and douches only
unstop the accumulatons in the al,

This explains why victims OF Ca

Well Pleased.

ono thing that Is patent to the on
locker at Association park every af
ternOon when the Tulsa high school
football candidates trOt out on to the
field for their evenings practice is
that the local scholastics are inspired
with the belief that they will have a
winning combination when the time
comes for them to be pitted against
other teams
Yesterdays practice was almost a
duplicate OF tnat Of the opening day,
except there was more OF it and there
was a little more drive Coach Gra-
cey left more than a lingering sus-
picion in the mind Of his pupils that
they are going to experience some in
tersiye training before long. He also
admitted after the practice that ke
was well pleased with the material
AlthO there were only about thirty
out for practice yesterday, there are
others in reserve. boys who will be
available Just as soon as more equip
mcnt can be secured. Gracey expects
10 have three teams in the field when
