started ten days ago, and tonight the
city hotels are literally packed. Trains
arrived in extra sections until after
midnight and the three railroad lines
had no regard for regular schedules.
Reports that all New Jersey roads
were in excellent condition encouraged
an unsual auto travel. The "Inlet"
is dotted with pleasure craft, and At
lantic City is receiving throngs as
never before.
Atlantic City is taxed to the stretch
ing point. The beach front is booked
to the very attic. Every one of the
side avenues hotels is full to the limit
and private homes are raided and be-
sicgcd for rooms. Visitors are. CON

Some hotel managers have been
driven to the extremes Of pleading with
patrons having reserved baths to re-
lease the rooms and cot has been
placed within and another bed built
over the tub. The servants actually
accommodated at the hotel are sent TO
the back of the town.

Wheat. The breaking of the South
western drouth was an important fac
tor in grain circles on Saturday, as it
gave assurance of marked improvement
in the winter wheat situation. The
rain was heavy at some places, Central
Kansas reporting from to inches
and was quite general, covering Texas
and Oklahoma, as we'll as Kansas
"Thc Modern Miller" said there had
been big Improvement in conditions
surrounding the crop prospects of the
Southwest. 1t said that in Oklahoma
Y inches of rain were reported in the
northern part of the state. and that
Northwestern Missouri had received
RAIN for twelve hours, and that carly
wheat was beginning to joint Colo
rado also had some rain. 1t was re-
ported from the West that the rail
roads had been ordered to send empty
cars to the Northwest, where there is
more wheat held back than in any other
section. 1t was said that 300 cars we're
to be sent to that section for wheat in
the next four days.
Corn.-Thc corn market had rather
an irregular session, ms it showed
early flrmness, with nm advance of IAc

Metals

The slight revision of iron and steel
prices officially announced from Wash
ington last Tuesday, to take effect April
l, had been generally anticipated. Some
iron and steel interests express disap-
pointment, however. that the term Of
price agreement has been again linn
tied to three months. They had hoped
that the time would be extended to at
least six months in order to conform
more closely to contract terms. The
action taken by the government is
generally held to mean that prices may
be lowered at d later revision next
July.
The movement of coke has been
freer, but considerable tonnage has
been diverted to certain steel makers
holding government contracts Foundry
operations have suffered in conse-
Quence, and iron is scarce. Meters,
With government work on hand, pro-
test that they cannot get the iron be-
cause the furnaces, in their turn, are
unable to secure the coke. Compare
lively little new business has been
placed for the second half, as pro-
ducers are not in a position to under
take it.
Consumption of copper has been
heavy, but distribution to private con-
Germs has been limited and subject to
some delay. Lead holds firm for imme-
diate delivery in New York, but some
accumulation in the West has weak
