HEAVY RECEIPTS OF
GRAIN LOWER VALUES
AT CHICAGO MARKET
CIV Associated Press,

CHICAGO, July 23-Big receipts,
together with indications that the
movement from rural sources would
remain heavy for some time, have
pulled down values in the wheat mar
ket this week. Prices this morning
compared with week ago, showed a
fall of 6A cents to cents a bushel.
Corn was II cent off to "a cent up.
Oats unchanged to rs to q cent lower,
and provisions varying from 35 cents
decline to 10 cents advance.
With arrivals of wheat in Chicago
on one day totalling 1900 cars and
with similar conditions at St. Louis
and Kansas City, bears had an advant-
age that was hard to meet, especially
as signs pointed to a larger yield in
Kansas and Oklahoma than official
estimates had given reason to expect.
AIay Drought Fear
Cooler temperatures prevailing ten
dered to allay fears of increased dam
age to the spring sown crop and there
was question at times as to whether.
IN view of storage congestion here,
railroad embargoes against grain ship
ments to Chicago could be entirely
business, the volume of which was
difficult to gauge, led to frequent raj
lies. In this connection it was urged
that whereas Europe, this season
would apparently require more wheat
than last year the United States could
not spare so much and that the tariff
made Canadian imports unlikely.
Liberal shipments from here togeth-
er with some dry weather complaints
steadied the corn market Oats were
eased a little by movements of the
new crop.
German buying of lard STRENGTHENED
that commodity, but meats averaged
lower in the absence of any special
demand
NEW YORK, July 23.-Extreme
dullness characterized the week in the
stock market. Dealings were in small
est volume of any like period this year
and fluctuations were in keeping with
the listless trading.
Another reduction of discounts by
the principal reserve banks and con
current action by the Bank of Eng
land pointed to easier money and
credit conditions but were without ap-
parent Influence as market factors.
Operators also ignored proposed
changes in the Fordney tariff bill, al
though these bore pertinently upon
the capital issues of many popular
companies, notably those in the oil,
cotton and leather industries.
Authoritative advices from leading
centers of trade and industry en-
phasized more hopeful feeling. The
steel Industry was a striking excep-
ton, however, more unfavorable state
ments of earnings for the years sec
ond quarter being issued.
Rails most often were dull but
maintained fine undertone. Approx
ably the railways executives of the
administrators funding plan is ex-
pected to facilitate legislation for
their financial relief.
Conclusion of one of several nro-
Jected commercial credits to German
interests was the noteworthy feature
of the International financial situation

points were increasingly re-

is MECCA OF
GREAT CROWD
Estimate $4,000 Crowd Yesterday
and Larger Number Indicated
at Noon.

Many thousands of people attend
ed the Mississippi Valley Fair and
Exposition grounds today, Illinois
and Kiwanis day.
At noon two seemingly endless
lines of automobiles and other con-
veyances formed at Locust street,
banking as far back as the FIVE
points.
Attendance yesterday was esti-
mated at $4,000. This number is
expected to be passed today but Of
ficials of the fair do not anticipate
that the record of $1,000 made
Thursday of last years fair, will be
reached.
In spite of yesterdays great
crowd, no serious accidents &C.
Cured. Machines covered the
greater portion of the open space
of the grounds. while owners of
property on the outside reaped a
harvest by renting parking space.
While yesterdays crowd was
composed largely of city people, to-

part by farmers and residents of
rural communities They came
from within a radius of 100 miles
on all sides of Davenport.
