(By Thomson & McKinnon)


wheat-A steadier feeling was shown
in this market based on reports of a
holding tendency by the farmers and a
little more export inquiry which, how
ever, did not result In any particular new
business The opening of the Winnipeg
market, tomorrow, viii be feature. No.
northern wheat is deliverable on con-
tracts at cents discount there.
Corn-Firmness in this market was the
result Of a liberal decrease in the visible,
moderate receipts, some claims OF rain
needed in central Kansas and parts OF
Nebraska, and a disposition to go a lit
tie slower after yesterdays sharp de-
cline. Cash prices, however. were rather
fiat, showing only a half cent recovery
from yesterdays decline, which extended
as far as six cents. Any talk of lack Of
rain west is not taken seriously. We see
nothing in the outlook to warrant any
expectation other than that declines will
follow the natural reactions made just
now
oats-September oats were decidedly
weak and heavy with concentrated selling
by northwest and eastern firms. There
was some buying of December In Min
neapolis and selling of the same in Chi
cage, that helped keep the market sup
piled with offerings. The oat crop Is
made the movement is coming along sat
isfactorily and the tendency seems lower.
Provisions showed weakness early on
the disappointment in the local stocks
statement, which showed an increase in
lard where a decrease was expected.
However, the hogs were again higher and
We are inclined to think that the buying
side Of lard will repay patience.

Result of Coast Mess

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 17.-William
G. Rumler. Salt Lake outfelder, was In
definitely suspended Monday By Presi-
dent William Mccarthy of the Pacific
Coast baseball league. -McCarthy's action

from Rumler that he and Babe Borton,
suspended Vernon first baseman, bet $3.50
on the outcome Of the pennant race last
season, Rumler betting on Vernon and
Borton on Salt Lake. 1t was supported
by another affidavit from c. A. Byler,
Salt Lake catcher, that he had knowledge
of such a wager.
LOS ANGELES, Aug. IA declaration
that charges of w Baker (Babe)
Borton against members of the Vernon
club Of the Pacific Coast league are "a
mass Of lies" was the outstanding point
of a statement by Manager William Es-
sick Of the Vernon club, published here
Monday. Essick declared the teams
standing disproved Borton's allegations
that assistance in distancing the Salt
Lake club in the pennant race was pur-
chased.
DALLAS, Tex, Aug. 17.-Gene Dale,
Dallas, Texas league pitcher who was a
member Of the Salt Lake Pacific Coast
League team last year Monday denied
charges that he was involved in an al
legged pool to throw" games to the Yer
non club to assist that team to win the
pennant. Dale said that the three games
he pitched against the Vernon club We're
lost through better playing by that club.
