New York, May 9.--Alternate recess
sions and rallies attended today's ses-
sion of the stock exchange, an irreg-
ular to heavy lone prevailing at the
close. The markets scope contracted
visibly and total sales again fell slight
ly under the familiar millfon-share n
There was less selling pressure among
leaders, the occasional reversals ap-
parently resulting more from an alb
sence of buying power than from any
concerted efforts of the short interest.
Pools continued their In
several of the more obscure industrials
and specialties, but their operations
ELECTED little or no outside support. In
active miscellaneous shares, which fol-
lowed in the wake of the March-April
rise, sustained extreme losses of one to
three points.
Rails were the days only substantial
features, their eboun in the final hour
going far to reduce the average of de-
clines. New Haven made a new high
record for the year at 30ss n several
of the investment tranScontfnentals and
~coalers also improved. Sales amounted
to 9S5, 900 shares.
Further actual and prospective ad-
vances in prices Of raw and refined
oils were announced, but reports Of
another upward revision of fabricated
iron and steel were not confirmed.
On the lighter inquiry, money rates
eased, all call loans being made at
4 per cent. All private loans for 80 to
80 days were made at slight concessions
from the open rate but long time ac-
remained unaltered. All
foreign exchanges were substantially
above yesterdays minimum quotations
excepting remittances to central Europe.

GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.

Chicago, May s.-wheat averaged

OF improved call from domestic millers
and by talk of revival of foeeign de-
mand. The close, however, was un-
settled; 4 cent n net low to 1Ac advance,
$1:23A to s1.23x. Corn lost nc to &c
and oats h to A9Bc. In provisions
the outcome varied from 10 cents de-
cline to Is cents advance.
Word that flour business was picking
up somewhat came from Minneapolis
and Toledo, as well as from Chicago
millers, and there also was some buy

better export business in wheat was
based partly on news Of European high
prices for potatoes. Besides, upward OF
l.O0O, 900 bushels of wheat, mostly Can
adian, We're said to have been taken
today for Europe at the seaboard.
Considerable evening-up Of trades to
port, due after the close, tended further
to exceed the bull side of the market.
The official estimate of the probable
however, was about as generally
expected. Some weakness, which devel-
oped in the market just before the
close, was ascribed to selling on the
part Of longs. Deliveries on May con-
tracts today were only moderate, ILL.,
600 bushels, but receipts were large, 423
carloads.
Overloaded condition of elevators
here tended to curtail buying of corn

Provisions at first had an upward
slant in line with hog values, but later
weakened somewhat as a result Of COM

c. n. WILL ASSIST


At one time Mr.. Hill had contem-
plated the construction of the project
and promised an early completion of
the work at q minimum cost to the
land owners.
Ralph Budd said in his opinion it
was not so much the cost of construc-
ton that would trouble the settlers.
He thought the construction charges
could be paid if they were stretched
out over a period Of years without in
terest charges, making the annual pay
ment small. He presented ONE fig
ures to show that settlers on projects
with a smaller construction charge and
interest charge, in the end would pay
more than one where the construction
charge was much higher, but the inter
est charge eliminated. He admitted,
however. that the construction charge
the Milk river project was Excess
sive. He promised the hearty support
of the Great Northern. through the
legal and other departments to see
that a fair and satisfactory adjustment
was brought about.
Suggests Committee
I. d. O'Donnell. a prominent farm
er in the Yellowstone valley, suggested
a board of review be appointed to go
over the expenditures of the reclama-
ton service on this project. A board
of review is composed of one man ap-
pointed by the water users. one man
by the secretary of the interior and
these two select the third member. 1t
was explained that the water users
had asked for such a board, but the
secretary of the interior had virtually
the request down and gave as
reason that the board of review
more than examinations amount to.
Manager Offers Aid
George E. Stratton. project man
ager. said that the reclamation service
had suggested that a committee of
users go over the accounts of
the project the same as would a board
Of review and make recommendations
as to what e~liminations on construction
charges should be made. He is of the
thai the committee of this
kind would have virtually the same
with the department of the in
terror as would q board of review.
Before announcement was taken
Budd stated he would ar
to have one of the members of
the legal department of the Great
come to Malta and together
with Mr.. ODonnell they would CO.
with the committee of the
users association in gathering
acts which they will prepare to pre-
'ent to the proper officials at Wash
ngton. The work of looking into
of the reclamation service will
commenced as soon as the legal
arrives here, which will
,e in about 10 days.
