Corn.-A firm undertone prevailed in
the corn market, although price
changes were narrow, the close being
1sc to nc net higher Western cash
markets were firm and offers for ship
ment in the local market were ad
vanced in some cases about sc bushel.
Railroad embargoes are still in force,
but notwithstanding the fact that it is
for shipment, the distribution of corn
in the West continues active and offers
are being we'll absorbed.
The demand was still directed par
ticularly toward the better grades and,
owing to the very wide difference in
quality, quotations for the cash article
covered wide range. 1t was thought
that the taking over of the Dutch
steamers had eXerted a bullish infiu
ence on the cash position, although
grain handlers seemed rather doubtful
about the probability of getting much
cash corn through from the West for
points were again liberal, and it was
the prevailing belief that the visible
supply will show another good increase
for the week. The trade believes that
it is hardly reasonable to expect the
movement to keep up at it's present
rate much longer because of the pres
sure of work on the farms, which will
have a tendency to check the marketing
of corn.

Oats.-The oats market was firm
and higher, closing with a partial re-
above the final of Wednesday. Firm
ness in the cash position was again the
principal sustaining factor. Cash pre-
miums in the West were we'll sus-
tanned and there were further
evidences of buying for export
account. The prospects of ship
ments by Dutch steamers exerted
more or less influence in the market,
Notwithstanding the difficulties being
encountered in the way of getting per-
mits. Chicago has proposed new
contract which makes No. 3 white oats
deliverable with the better grades at

The battle on the front Of the first
French army has come to a natural stop.
the French having obtained the two
heights, st. Claude Farm and Ecouvillon
Farm, which for an army advancing
from the south constitutes the key of
the whole position in the Thiescourt
hills. and having thus secured their
right from the danger Of an attack from
the Businesses Of Little Switzerland, the
whole front Is fast.
The French have to reconstruct roads
and bring up heavy artillery and am
munition, and their men, after four days
of fighting are in need of rest. Our
enemy is in the same state He Is now
Installing himself comfortably for
further resistance in the old French

himself on his luck in finding such a
powerful defensive line ready to hand
in the rear of his retreating army at q
moment when his overtasked troops were
in the greatest need for it.
The trenches are still quite utilizable; /;
the wire entanglements apparently are
as solid as ever and in the last two
