er season last year. He will be
accompanied only by his two small

brother-in-law, Lyle Allison, boys
secretary Of the Moline Y. M. c. A
Mr.. Crosby has had years OF
training for the position he is about
to fill, rounding out his experience
with three years OF service over

PRICE OF CORN

Chicago. July 10.-There was ;
general rush Of buying By, commis-
sion houses It the start Of the corn
market today which carried prices
upward. The government report
showed greater difference than the
trade had expected. but Otherwise
the report was construed generally
- very bearish. Reports Of black
rust in the northwest also helped
boost prices. On the bulge there
was some selling by strong local
professionals. Initial quotations
ranged from Nc to 1Mc higher,
with September at $1.56A to $1.57.
and December at $1.3Sh to $1.40h.
Oats followed the upward trend
of corn, the opening being Nc to
Nc higher, with September at
1850 to 78Ac.
Provisions were dull but firm.
The corn market continued &C
tive, with a rather firm undertone
although the selling against offers
caused a reaction. The black rust
scare in the northwest carried the
market upward and the close was
firm with advances ranging from
Axe to SIC, with September,
$1.59M to $1.69H, and December,
$1.43% to $1.44A.

CARS DAMAGED IN
AUTO COLLISION

A number of Alede people were
alarmed yesterday about noon when
the police bell at the corner Of
Colleve avenue and Seventh street
was heard ringing. Investigations
proved that two automobiles had
collided on East Seventh street and
the occupants were endeavoring to
settle the blame, when nearby resi-
dents sent in a call for the chief of
police. When Chief George D. Reed
arrived on the. scene the trouble
had mostly subsidized. A large tour
ing car driven by Frank Wagner
and a sedan, driven by Ira Greer
had been smashed up. The tour
ing car was much the worse for the
collision. Greer placed the blame
on Wagner and the chief held him
for a short time, releasing him
upon promise to pay the damage
done the Greer machine.

Weekly Grain and
Provision Review

Chicago, July TO- - Extremely
heavy selling and severe cutting of
prices have attracted unusual at
tention this week to the corn mar
ket. Optimism in regard to the
crop outlook was leading factor,
together with big receipts. Com
pared with week ago, corn values
this morning showed a setback of
11Ac to 15Bc; oats were down
4%c to SIC to 5hc, and provisions
varying from 75c decline to an ad-
vance of 45c.
Rains and high temperatures that
made field conditions superb for
corn would alone have been sufii-
cient to bring about radical bear
ish sentiment in the corn trade,
even II there had not been reports
OF enlarged receipts which on one
day here totalled 500 carloads. Be-
sides, however, a good deal OF no.
tice was taken Of the difficulties of
financing the 1920 crops. So near
ly unanimous were the consequent
views of traders that at times the
corn market was almost without
support. Predictions that black
rust might menace the safety of
spring wheat failed to have any
lasting opposite influence on the
value of corn, and SO likewise did
talk OF the remote possibility Of q
long period of cool weather.
Declines In oats were checked by
opinions that farmers would not
accept less than 70 cents a bushel
Packers buying rallied provis-
ions somewhat.

THIRTEEN ATTEND
KEWANEE MEET,
ONE HAS BADLUCK

Thirteen East Moline Rotarians
attended the inter-city meeting Of
that organization in Kewanee yes
terday; an unlucky number. De-
los Metcalfe, vice president, and
manager of the Greenleaf Hard
ware company, claims to be the I'M
lucky 10. He got lost on the way
home, arriving about 8 this morning
after travelling highways and by
ways which he declares he never
saw before and never wants to see
again.
The delegation left the Kewanee
country club and started for home
late last evening. Mr.. Metcalfe re-
turned to Kewanee to get some OF
the delegations property left in
check. The others had six-nnile
start which accounts for Mr.. Met
calls mishap.
