Sharpest breaks in the wheat marker
took place when the fact became eVioene
that employees Of all Chicago grain eleva-
tors would quit work and that a wlue"
spread tie up OF arilroads was possibly Inn
pending. Simultaneous pressure TO dispose
OF new wheat from the winter crop pelt
added to the furry in the trade, especially

Stock Market Maintains
Steady Tone During Week

New York. July aside from the un-
settlement occasioned by current weakness
of foreign oils, notably Mexican and Soutn
American issues. the stock market this
week maintained fairly steady tone.
Rails and railroad equipments showed ,Wa,I
a decided tendency to throw or their
prolonged spell of depression on better
earnings and another decrease In IDLE
freight cars. There were indications also
that large equipment contracts would soon
be awarded by transportation companies.
APPROACH of the mid d-year witnessed
further slowing down of operations In the
steel industry, but the motor trade was
subjected to conflicting conditions, cur
tailment at some centers being offset py
increased production elsewhere.
Business in general as reviewed by au-
thorities continued very irregular, the
trend being one Of quiet repression. Re-
ports received by the federal reserve board
indicate that acceleration of the decline OF
prices has been beneficial to many retail
lines of mere handise.
Easier money rates prevailed at this and
other important financial centers There
was little to warrant the belief, however,
that July interest and dividend payments
would be accompanied by any pronounced
increase of investment purchases in the
securities market.

Farmer Badly Hurt
In Clash AT Estevan

Estcvan. sask., April 27.-Times
may change Int climates differ, GUS
die and ideals fuse. but the
Irish will never love the Jews: it isn't
in their nature. Dave Trapper, of the
seed of Abraham, came owe to his
neighbor., John Dougherty. who is
Irish, and wanted to borrow a hay
rack. Negotiations did not go very
far before the fight started. The
Irish was getting along very we'll in
his effort to put the Js,aelite where
he would have no use for a hayrack,
but. his mother did not think he was
doing full credit to his breed and al
so decided to take q hand in the fun.
It is alleged thai the woman en-
tered the fray with an axe and got at
least one good wallop at the luckless
Dave. The situation at present rests
with the doctors carefully patching
Trapper together and the police dill
gently studying the criminal code to
discover against whom to lay the
complaint for the breach of His
Majesty'S peace.
