L. s. Tires Big Sellers

American tires are keeping step in
popularity in foreign lands with Amer

the current year.
y few days ago an Iceland automobile
dealer paid a visit to the New York office
of the United States Tire Company, and
ordered full tire equipment for 80 cars.
He said that this brand of tire was re
Farded as the quality brand" in his
country.
Turning to the southern hemisphere,
it is noted that a recent issue of LA

tiago, Chile, carried a half-page article
telling of the wonderful performance
of a Scripps Booth car in a test run
of 1889 klometers, over the mountain
roads of that country.

TO TALK TO SHORE
ON THEIR FLIGHT
ACROSS THE OCEAN

American navy seaplanes which
are shortly to attempt a fight
across the Atlantic will keep in
constant touch by wireless tele-
phone with the shore, enthusiasts
predisted
1t is planned to have the planes
equipped for wireless and tele-
phone communication with the de-
stroyers that will be placed along
the course and with the station at
the starting point.
While not specifically announced
it is understood that the navy de-
partment has determined on a
course from Newfoundland to the
Azores to Ireland for the proposed
flight
Between so and So American de-
stroyers will police the course.
In addition to this protection. a
continuous stream of transports
and other steamers will be within
easy touch of the course for most
of the distance.
Favorable winds will be taken
advantage of to the greatest pos
sible extent. This is one reason
for the decision to make the flight
via the Azores.
Naval officers have learned that
British pilots and attaches are
having difficulty in lining up things
tor the proposed flight of private
planes. officials still expect to
start before a British plane is IN
der way.

MARKET QUOTATIONS
CORN DROPS At
GOOD WEATHER
Weakness Develops in Quotations
as Result of Prospects OF Bet
ter Conditions.

Chicago, Ill, April 16.-Weakness
developed in the corn market to-
day largely as result of pros
poets of clearing weather and of
consequent less likelihood of dam
aged shipments or delay to the
crop movement. Bearish senti-
ment was also increased by the out
look for a general strike of ma
rine workers at New York. Sell
ing. however, was not of an ag-
gressive character. Opening
prices, which ranged from &c to
11sc lower, with May $1.57A to
$153A, and July S1.515s to S1.52.
were followed by a moderate rally.
Numerous rallies took place, al
though bulges brought out in
Creased offerings. Upturns were
based somewhat on the fact that
stocks in Kansas City. Omaha and
Chicago totaled 1000, 900 bushels
less than the aggregate a year ago.
Prices closed nervous &C net low
er to 1sc advance. with May s158A
to S1.58M, and July $1.517s TO 1852.
Subsequently, the provision mar
ket as a whole averaged lower
than earlier as a result of sIacken-
ing of demand.
Seeding delays tended to uphold
oats despite weakness of corn. Aft
er opening ~ off to 2sc advance,
with July &c to 67Lc. the oats
market steadied at about yesteT-
days finish.
Strength in the hogh market gave
comparative firmness to lard and
ribs Pork, though, underwent
setback.
