GRAIN AND PRODUCE

Chicago, June Notwithstanding that the corn market continued today to show remarkable activity. sensational ad- vances in price received decided check. Prospects of warmer weather and of con- sequent better field conditions for the growing crop did a good deal to ease down values The close was heavy at the same as yesterdays finish to Sc lower with July at $1.5sA to $1.531a and septem- Der at S1 42s4 to $1.43 Wheat closed un- settled at 1zc net decline to Sc advance with July s2.221s and September $195 Oats lost 7s to IS. The outcome in pro- visions ranged from, Sc off to a rise of 71sc
 General commission house buying and rels tive lightness of offerings made the corn market bulge at the outset but soon the feeling spread that the advance which began yesterday had been so ex- traordinary that halt was needed for at least the time being. The result was that after the official forecast was o:it indicating more seasonable weather than has been the rule of late the majority of traders turned to the selling side Profit taking by shorts led subsequently to a fresh upturn, but the effect failed to last. BullS were UdHulCdppSu py HumcE- ous reports that country offerings of cash corn had become erlarged overnight to material extent, and that shippers and industries had made liberal purchases to arrive.
 Talk of chances that the government crop report tomorrow would prove bearsh counted against the buying side of the wheat market. General expectation was that the winter crop yield would be esti- mated at about S0,000.O0o bushels. Ad- vices were at hand that harvesting was now well under way in Texas, and that new wheat from there would reach ter minal markets within two weeks
 Oats sagged owing largely to prediction that the government report tomorrow would be bearish regarding oats as well as wheat
 Provisions were quiet and irregular. The market averaged lower most of the day in sympathy with hogs and corn. Future quotations were as follows

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'s Letter

New York, June 7.--(Special. .)-Today's s market was a quieter and a smaller one
 due to high prices with better weather restricting transactions. Some spot of ferings were reported from the south close to the basis of July here. There is no scarcity of cotton in the United States now; in fact, as pointed out yes- terday, a very large amount will be car ried over, exceeding any year except ing 1915-16 caused by the check in the exports. Whatver may be the ultimate result of this seasons crop, at the mo- ment the stocks, visible and invisible, are large With the large supply of money in the south these stocks do not weigh upon anyone, as all have profits in them
 Today we have had some realizing and possibly some hedge selling, due to the

Pike Registration

Troy. June Especial )-Tuesday in Pike county there were 22s0 men between the ages of 21 and 90 to register for serv- ice for the government. This did not Include one box from Orion, which had not been heard from. It is believed there were few sackers in this county. for as early as the registration places were opened and before they were crowded with men eager to offer their services. The day passed very quietly in Troy and Pike county

[ From 1920 10 1910 the whites increased i,143 s90. an increase of 130 per cent. an average of IS per cent a year. and the negroes increased s65 S25, an increase of 200 per cent. an average of 2 per cent. a year
 The next census will show a much larger majority of whites and the loss of negroes will probably be continual and permanent. The northern and western mine opera tons have, heretofore. largely employed Poles. Italians and Hungarians ss la- borers.
 These people are all engaged in the great European war. and there has been
 no immigration from these countries in nearly three years and many of them , have returned to their armies
 Most of this class of immigration locat-
 ed in the north and west. and after the | termination of war, under the 'illiteracy i test' of the new immigration law" most i of these people will be excluded from
 the Unitel States. even if they desired to 1 immigrate; the result will be with boil weevil, and consequent destruction of
 the cotton crop In large sections of the south, and the exclusion of white Euro- pean labor from the north and west.
 the demand for negro labor in those sec-
 tions will continually increase, and the
 exodus will continue.
 With opposition in some localities tho
 north and west generally will give this negro labor permanent employment which
 will necessarily cause serious problem | in the labor situation in the south. This
 question demands the serious coneidera- i tion of the southern people, especially as the negro exodus will probably be | permanent. The negroes will be wanted l in the mines in the north and west. In many sections of the south they only know how to raise cotton and cannot adapt themselves to new conditions. | These several minor causes, outside of the boil weevil. have caused dissatisfao- tion. The negroes have been disfran- l chised. Prohibition has deprived them of intoxicants. In many instances they have not received legal justice. All of these causes have tendency to encourage the exodus There is no question but what 1 it will be best for the south for the
 negroes to be disseminated over the Uni-
 ted States, especially if we can replace
 them with good white people. We should thoroughly advertise the resources of our
 section, offer all the inducements possi-
 be and obtain desirable white popula- ton to replace the negroes. J. T. GORMAN., 1 MohiIe June E 1917

FURTHER ADVANCES ON STOCK EXCHANGE
U. s. Steel Maintains Lead srsnip With Rivals Well
 in the Running

New York, June 7.-subject to persist ent profit taking. which became too strong in the later dealings to be ignored. today's extremely active market regis tered further general advances. especially among the industrials. The character of the trading was of such exceptional breadth as to heighten the impression of growing public participation.
 Pools were again actively represented in some of the equipments and muni- tions United States Industrial Alcohol added 9A points at it's extreme rise to s641z, making a gross gain of 26 points in two days.
 United States Steel maintained it's leadership, rising 2A to 1341s, this being equal, adding recent dividends of A. per cent to 1SS2s. and exceeding It's pre- vious maximum by 1a4 points. steers s contribution to the days huge total of 132Q,a9O shares was fully 25 per cent
 E+.zsuehem Steels rivalled the leader una surpassed it in point of actual gains the new stock advancing 334 to 151 and the old to 154 On the oasis of five shares of existing shares for one of the old, Bethlehem Steels far surpassed the q record price of S700 per share, made last year.
 Other conspicuolusly strong industrials and specialties, all of which yielded to later pressure, included oils shppings feathers and metals. Motors displayed temporary improvement, but fell away at the end.
 Rails failed to throw off their recent lethargy, except for relative strength in the Pacif1cs, Reading, Louisville and Nashville and a few minor issues.
 new low record of 20 for Russian exchange, concurrent with further heavi- ness of Russian government bonds, ex- cited little interest, rubles improving slightly in the latter part of the ses- sion.
 Most of the days call money was placed around 4 per cent and a stiffer tendency was shown for time accommo- dations. For the first time in several weeks no exports of gold were reported Industrial advices in their bearing upon the stock market were conducive to bet- torment. Iron and steel schedules held strong and coppcrs were quotably higher.
