Corn Products a Leader.
Corn Products was the market lead
er during the greater part of the
time today. 1t went through all for
mer highs for this year and last and
drew close to its high for all time
made in 1920. Nothing on the list has
inspired more short selling on it's
anomaly for a stock paying only 4
per cent regular and 2 per cent extra
to be quoted around par.
American Sumatra preferred broke
all previous low records. and it seem
ed to be only the presence of a very
large short interest which prevented
the common stock from breaking
more than it did.
Recent strength in United States
Cast Iron Pipe stock is to be ascribed
partly to the outlook for a larger
construction business in the spring
and partly to the Improvement which
has occurred in the general condition
of the company since last summer.
Lower Call Money.
Indications of somewhat lower

portant developments in the financial
situation today. The rate on stand

the bulk of the new business. which
had been arranged at per cent on
nreyious days, was down to Az.
But it was hard to trace any ef-
feet of the recession in money upon

Stimulus afforded in either case. Bond

THE cYCLORAMA.

Among the features at the fair, which combine
instruction with entertainment is the very elabor-
ately staged representation of Chateu- Thierry and
its environs, in which painted canvas and the use of
actual objects are combined to give a realistic con-
ception of the terrain over which one, of the most
important engagements of the late war was fought,
and where American troops gave to the Germans
that check which contributed so much to their ul-
innate defeat
This battle scene is presented in the form which
some years ago became popular under the term
"cyclerama." The first large picture of this type
ever shown was that Of the battle of Gettysburg,
which was viewed by thousands in Chicago in the
early eighties. 1t was the work of a French artist
named Phillipoteaux-or something similar to that
who had made a careful study of the famous battle
ground, and who had reproduced its characteristics
with wonderful fidelity.
All that the visitor saw from the outside was a
large circular building with walls about so feet high.
From the entrance he passed through a tunnel to
the center of the structure, then climbed a stair to
a platform from which he could see in every direc-
ton. The impression was startling. A moment be-
fore he had left a crowded city street. After walk
ing a few yards and climbing a stair he found him
self in the open country, with the blue sky above
him, with fenced field and woodland around him
and hills rolling away intothe distance. The trans
formation was so sudden and SO complete that it
created a condition of amazement which, for the
moment, benumbed the critical faculties. 1t is not
quite true that it was impossible to distinguish the
painted OOJcCIS Oh tic canvas IrOm similar ones act
ually built into the foreground, but light and shade,
form, color and perspective had been so i~skillfully
used that it was difficult to detect just where the
dividing line was.
Some of the men who visited that exhibit were
as interesting as the picture itself. These were the
elderly men in blue uniforms who twenty years be-
fore, had fought in that battle, and many Of them
were able 70 identity features of the landscape, and
to point out trees, fences, or other objects which
marked the positions which they occupied in the
great struggle,
Thousandstof people gained a new conception Of
what that battle meant by viewing that picture, and
az is safe to say that many had their patriotism
stimulated and strengthsnsd ~ what they saw and
heard there. In the histOrysof our country Chateau

PAVING WARRANT PREMIUMS.

Mention has been made OF the tact that paving
warrants in the amount of 500, 900. to be issued on
account of the paving to be done in the south end
of the city, were sold a few days ago at a premium
Of 81, 875, the warrants being issued at s per cent.
Inasmucha as the accepted bid provided for the &C
ceptance by the contractor of 6 per cent warrants at
par, there has been an impression that any premium
paid on these warrants would go to the contractor,
the city merely acting as his agent in disposing of
them, participating in no profits and assuming no
loss if the warrants should be sold at a discount in
stead of a premium.
The fact is that this premium goes to the city,
or, rather, is credited to the paving district, and it
will reduce the cost of the improvement to the prop
erty owners by just that much.
The contract with the Northern Construction
company provides, in substance, that the contractor
will perform the work at a stipulated price, and will
accept in payment either 6 per cent warrants at par,
or cash, at the option of the city. The city having
been able to sell the warrants at a premium, retains
the premium and credits it to the district, and pays
the contractor in cash. If it had been impossible
to market the warrants at par they would have been
turned over to the contractor at their face, and he
would have disposed Of them on his own account.
1t should be understood, also, that no warrants
are issued except as the work progresses, and that
they draw interest only from date of issue.
Grand Forks herald. [volume] (Grand Forks, N.D.) 1916-1955, 1922-07-28

During the month of June the United States
imported 1929 ,636 worth of gold, and exported
ST, 6OO, 1854 of the same metal. 1t is interesting to
note that Of the eleven million and odd dollars
worth in net imports, a little over S., 600, 900 came
from two countries. 1t would be easy enough to
guess that one of these countries is England, as our
trade relations with that country are such as to Gre
ate larger balances than arise in our transactions
elsewhere. England contributed just a little less
than half of the gold received from our two chief
sources during June, the amount being S ,O0S, 63s.
One other country sent us $4,0S9,626 in gold.
If all the people who have only a general
knowledge of trade and financial movements were
asked to name this other country it is safe to assert
that 80 per cent of the answers would be wrong.
The country which sent US our greatest amount of
gold in June is not a gold producing country like
Mexico or South Africa. 1t is not a country listed
as one, of the great powers. such as France. or Italy,
or Japan. 1t is not our nearest %neighbor, Canada,
with which our trade reaches a volume surpassed
only by that of Great Britain. 1t is the little king
dom of Denmark. and just why little Denmark
should be sending us more gold in one month than
any other country is left for the financial experts to
explain. '.n .-..tl
1t may be that some peculiar combination of
circumstances called for an unusually large gold
shipment from Denmark in that one month, but
whatever the reason, there is the fact, as given in a
monthly bulletin issued by the department of COM
merce.
