GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.

Scattered selling Of wheat by houses
with southwestern connections result
ed in q sharp break, the support be-
ing limited. Tho lack Of speculative
trading was responsible to q great ex-
tent for the wide h~uctuation.
The closing was heavy. 3 to 6 cents
lower, with December 2.53 and March
2.5S.
Corn was higher early on scattered
buying hut broke sharply laer on

was weak. 7-S to 2 1-4c net lower,
with September 1.:3 to 1.49 Is, and
December 1876 Ia to 1886 ga.
Commission houses bought a corn
early, but OF the bulge some Of the
buyers turned their attention to the
selling side and prices dropped
than a cent from the top. Local
element pressed the selling side OF
the way down. The trade was Of fair
proportions with opening prices
ranging from 3-s to / 1-S cents high

Divers to Seek Treasure
I'm Sunken Lusitania
Experts Believe Baggage Can
BE Reached and 81 ,O0O,-
600 Recovered

LONDON, jap. q. - Efforts to re-
cover some OF the treasure from the
III fated Lusitana will be made early
this year. Engineers and divers who
have been prospecting about the
sunken vessel believe that they can
recover much of value from the
Cunarder, but it will be impossible,
according to experts, to raise the liner
or any of her cargo, owing to the great
depth of the water in which she is
lying.
Plans Tor recovering the Lusitania' 8
treasure were first seriously discussed
IN the winter after her sinking off the
Old Head Of Kinsale. 1t was then be-
lleved she was lying in about 270 to
300 feet of water, but later estimates
have placed the depth at a greater fig
ure. There was some hope at that time
Of raising the vessel, or at least part
of her valuable metal cargo, but this
project evidently has been abandoned.
1t is believed, however, that the hold
in which the passengers baggage is
stored can be easily reached, and that
il will yield at least S1,000,000 or more.
If it is found that the vessel is up
right it VIII be fairly easy to retrieve
the contents Of the strong room, which
is near the purser's office on one Of
the upper decks
One salvage firm whose name has
heen persistently mentioned with the
Lustania is the Intcrocean Submarine
Engineering Company, of which Rear
Admiral Colby NJ Chester, U. s. n,
retired, is president.
