GRAIN FUTURES
BREAK SHARPLY
Better Crop Reports and Big
Receipts Are Factors.

CHICAGO, July ia sharp break
in grain futures occurred on the Board
of Trade today, based upon better crop
reports and heavy receipts. Rumors OF
black rust damage in the northwestern
states, which drove prices upward for
the last two days, We're ignored.
Early offerings were light, causing
over night shorts to scurry to cover. On
the small bulges which followed, how
ever, western houses sold corn.
July was the weakest of the corn de-
high mark and closing at a slight dis
count under September.
The near delivery was affected by
larger receipts and 4 break of as much
as cents under Mondays sales in the
cash market. Leading cash interests were
good sellers of the July.
September was the weaker Of the two
deferred months, the spread narrowing to
lac. Considerable changing over to De-
cepber and selling of September was IN
evidence from the start.
Thirty thousand bushels were sold to
go to store, making 100000 bushels so far
this month. Stocks at st. Louis have
gained 114,O00 bushels to 100000.
Oats broke in sympathy with corn
July showing the greatest weakness on
prospects of larger receipts, weakness in
the spot market and the sale of new
Oklahoma oats, ten-day shipment, at 900
96c, track here. Country offerings were
larger, but mainly above the market.
The volume Of trade in the pit was
not heavy, but fluctuations were rapid
within narrow range, buying against
bids checking the decline several times
Provisions sank with grains, inspired
largely by the lower hog market.

tunity to cause a number of industries
to locate in Indianapolis had slight en-
engagement been given.
The report says that in a number of
cases encouragement has been purposely
withheld because it was felt that the
location of the industries in question
would not add materially to the future
growth and prosperity of the city.

Charges Railroads
PrOfteer in Coal

Railroads OF the country are "gobbling
up" practically all the coal now being
produced and are reselling it to dealers
because Of the opportunity to make gi-
gantic profits from the present high
prices Of bituminous coal, according to a
statement issued today by Ellis searles.
editor Of the United Mine Workers Jour
nal. at headquarters of the U. VI. W. A.
Searles declared Trustworthy informa-
ton" is to the effect that the railroads
assign practically all their cars to mines
with which they have contracts, keeping
them operating steadily, while others
work only part time
According to these reports" said
Searles. "the railroads are not burning
or storing the coal, but are selling 1t at
a huge profit"

SEMI-FINALS FOR
TENNIS WINNERS
Continued From Page Eighty

Harris and Mansfield today. The young
sters are both good tennis players, Dixon
being the state boy champion, but there
was hardly chance for them against
their older opponents.
Trask and Hennessey were also facing
a tough doubles task. The Cox brothers
swing mean bats" and their good team
work was expected to prove dangerous
to the teacher pupil" duo.
Hence oEme.. sr., father of Indiana
tennis" and his son, Hence, Jr., were
to bid for semi-1nal doubles berth
against Bastian and Kohn. 1t was be-
lieved that something Of interest to the
fans would also result here, with Kohn
and Bastian teing slight favorites to
win.
At the present time the tournament
committee plans call for the sem,-hna
Of all divisions on Friday and the finals
Saturday, but 1t Is probable that the
semt-hnal dates will be changed after
todays play, as some of the favorites
to enter the singles semi finals are also
favored to play in that division of the
doubles meet, aud 1t would not be right
to ask player to compete IN two late
round matches during the same after
noon.
The doubles semi finals probably will
be played tomorrow afternoon and the
singles matches Of that class are ex-
pected on Friday.
