GRAIN REVIEW

Chicago, May 2.-Free selling today
carried prices sharply downgrade in
the corn market. Good weather conduc-
tive to enlarge planting was the chief
bearish influence. In addition: the ef-
feet Of re-sslling on the part of eastern
interests acted as handicap on the
bulls Opening prices which ranged
from 1Xc down to q shade advance
with May s1.2711 to X and July $1.45h
OK were followed by slight rally
and then by q more prounced sag
than-before
On the decline commission houses
turned to the buying side, Influenced
largely by the smallness Of country Of
ferings, and brought swift upturn in
values.
The close was strong " to 2hc net
higher with May $1.27M and July
$1.47%@%.
Total absence of shipping inquiry
weakened oats. AS in corn the favora-
BILE weather was also q bearish factor.
After opening unchanged to sc lower
with July 6SN 10 6sA tho market hard
ened little but later underwent de-
cided setback.
Lower quotations on hogs pulled
down provisions. There were reports
too of slack shipping demand and
heavy stocks in warehouses.

TRACT ARoUsEs IRE.

The failure Of Wrestler Alex Bean
to sign the contract for match be-
tween him and Joe Kitterman, the
Hedrick blacksmith. has given rise to
considerable dissatisfaction among
people in and about Hedrick. The
Hedrick Journal Of recent date has an
article dealing with the proposed
match in which 1t censures the Ottum-
wa grappler for failure to sign up for
a go with Kitterman. More than a
score of signers accompany the article
from the Journal which has been sent
to the Courier with a request to pub
lish.
The article in question Is too great
In length to use in full. 1t deals with
a contract sent by Manager A. P. Ow-
ems of the Grand Opera house to the
editor of The Journal to be signed by
Kitterman, which after being signed
by the Hedrick blacksmith was re-
turned for Beams signature that was
not Forthcoming. Bean is severely cen
sured by the paper for his action. The
following friends Of K1tterman have
added their names to the communities
ton received by The Courier:
J. H. Smith, John Hunting, T. P.
