GRAIN AND PROVISIONS

Chicago, June 1.-Wheat took a
moderate upward slant in price today
during the early dealings, owing
largely to higher quotations atIAyef-
pool. construed by many traders here
~ rejecting O better political and
economic outlook in Europe. Bullish
estimates OF the Argentine exportable
surplus were also factor. Offerings
were light, and houses with eastern
connections led the buying. There
were deliveries of 2o5.eo bushels on
which varied from IA to 1-s high
er. with July l.ls to 1.1s 1-2 and
September LII 3-4 to 1.18, were fol-
lowed by slight further gains.
Corn and oats were firmer with
wheat. After opening 1-S to 1-2
higher, July 81 1-2 to 81 3-4, the corn
market held at about the initial range.
Oats started unchanged to 3-S
higher. July SO as to 1-2 to 50 1-2,
and later scored slight general ad-
vance.
Provisions were easy in line with
hog values.
Wheat-subsequen bearish priv
ate crop estimates led - Q setback
in values but with improved milling
and export demand and assertions
that black rust had developed in
north Texas wheat, the market ral-
lied sharply in the late dealings.
Prices closed unsettled. 1-S to l IA
cents higher. July $1.19 to 1.19 SIS,
and September $1.17 5-S to III "a.
Corn-Later the market weakened
when wheat prices underwent sag.
The close was nervous. 1-S01-4 to
3-8 cents net lower; July, 62 to
g. l-S.

All crops coming on fine. Wheat

Broomhall tells of increasingly heavy
offerings of wheat from Argentina,
Australia and Canada depressing the
parcel market. AS L see it, our marA
ket will have to depend on foreign
outlet to reduce our large local stocks.
The Van Dusen Harrington, weekly
rport says:
This is the season Of year when the
grain crops Of Minnesota. North Da-
uauy nave a good appearance. The
present, is no, exception and the gen.
eral tone of reports from the country
is optimistic. The season is a little
late but the ground was in unusually
good condition at the start. and the
weather since has been favorable.
Local conditions are now beginning

has been too much moisture and
some Of the fields are quite heavy
with weeds and wild oats.

months Of June and July.
The rye crop, as a rule. maintains a
good condition. There are some re-
ports from North Dakota and South

This is rather unusual as the weather

grain.
There is still small amount of
corn planting to. be done in the south
ern half Of our territory. In the NOR
thern half, corn planting continues
under favorable conditions and some
OF the early corn. in North Dakota is
now above ground.
Most Of our reports from Montana
are favorable. Grain has been seed

There is a considerable amount OF
interest being aroused over the black
rust situation in the northwest. The
AGRICULTURAL colleges have been dong
some fine work, and If the farmers

tne barberry bush, we believe the

ouced: This would mean the saving
Of many millions Of bushels Of grain

10 GRAND JURORS
PICKED FOR PROBE

Ten of the twenty three men who
are to comprise the additional grand
jury for the District of Columbia, be-
fore which Attorney General Daugh-

don expect to lay evidence tending to
show that high officials of the Will
son administration knew of war con-
tract frauds. were accepted today Dy
Chief Justice Mccoy. Three OF the
other talesmen were not found ana
ten were excused for disqualification
and other reasons.
The Chief Justice directed the jury
commission to summon seventy-five
additional talesmen to report tomor-
row morning at $50 o'clock. From
this number will be selected the re-
naming thirteen persons needed to
complete the panel. The Chle1
Justice will then appoint one of the
number as foreman of the grand jury,
and the body will then be ready to
receive the testimony collected by the
Department of Justice concerning al
legged war contracts.
Subsisting contracts between tales
men and the United States OF District

Jury service, but today the chief JUS
