Shipping Tonnage Value
Increasing In Sweden

STOCKHOLM, May 27-Shipping
tonnage is rapidly increasing in value
throughout Sweden, according to the
Stockholm Press, which comments on
this fact as the most significant indi-
cation of returning optimism among
ship owners.
Only a few months ago ships sold
at 100 kronor (about S27) ton. Lat
er the price advanced to $50 kronoT
per ton for newly constructed ships
while now it is hard to purchase yes
sells at 800 kronor per ton.
The Stockholm papers see in this
rapid advance fairly sure signs OF
brighter prospects in the business
world. which means that ship owners
feel certain that they will soon have
ample use for all their vessels.

MAY WHEAT CLIMAX
BELIEVED TO Be over
BY BOARD OF TRADE
tBy Associated Press)


CHICAGO. May 81. Although
chances of surprised developments
about May dealings in wheat tended
to keep many board of trade men on
tiptoe today the majority had begun
acting on the assumption that the
climax was already over and that
widely held theories of an accute end
of the season scarcity of wheat here
had been exploded
With hundreds of carloads of wheat
daily piling into Chicago the price for
May delivery had plunged down head
long Instead of going skyward and
this morning as compared with week
ago the wheat market, taken as a
whole was off all the way from sc
to 1870 bushel. Corn showed a set
OF y to 1c. In provisions the net
changes for the week ranged from 15c
decline to $1.05 advance.
The most exciting collapse of prices
came exactly week ahead of the
time which board of trade rules had
fixed as the limit for the settlement
of contracts calling for the delivery
of wheat here this month. Only the
previous day the market had made a
steep advance of 4i3c, chiefly on ac-
count of supposed indications that the
wheat accommodating in Chicago would
be promptly moved away with Europe
furnishing good out. Railroads west
of here, however, were guaranteeing
TO rush wheat shipments to Chicago
at nearly passenger-train speed, and
the supplies coming into view from
rural sources were proving of aston
ishing volume.
Rainy weather and smallness of
country offerings helped to prevent
any violent down turn of prices for
corn and oats
High quotations on hogs were large
~ responsible for provisions, as a rule,
showing gains
= NEW YORK, May 27-Prices of
stocks and bonds this week were again
largely sustained by favorable tech
nical conditions, although dealings in
both branches of the financial markets
were more moderate and subjected to
occasional setbacks.
Economic factors continued to favor
the constructive side. The 10 per cent
reduction in freight rates ordered by
the Interstate Commerce Commission
was in line with general forecasts and
exerted little adverse effect upon the
railway list

but 1t takes pride in solving every
problem, however complex, says Staff
Captain A. Murpurg of Chicago.
Nevertheless, it was soundly beaten

With the risk of a rough voyage,
Staff Captain Marpudg doubts if any

READY For 1lE.uP.

indianapolis. March %. = Without
hope apparent OF, any developments
forestalling the coal strike set, for
April 1, officials of the United Mine
Workers of America here declared that
the miners were ready for aSgeleral
suspension of many weeks duration.
None, however, would predict now long
the walkout would continue, asserting
that their fight would continue indefi-
nitely.
While no official forecast of length
of the strike was made, it was indi.
Gated authoritatively that the union
officials felt that any wage conference
with operators of the central competi-
tive field was doubtful until the big
coal stocks now on hand had been de-
pleted. Operators here said the stocks
on hand would meet the country's re-
quirements for two months, and that
meanwhile non-union fields could sup
ply almost half the normal demand
While the strike in the soft coal
fields hinges on the situation in the
central competitive field, which is tie
unions basis for wages Of all soft coal
districts, the strike in Pennsylvania
anthracite fields may be ended before
that in the soft coal fields, for negotia.
tions now are under way for a new
anthracite wage agreement.
