Chicago Produce Market
Chicag go, Dec.

Chlcago, Dec. IL.
With buying inadequate to absorb
current offerings, wheat prices here
broke during the final transactions to-
day although earlier the market had
held steady in the face of considerable
selling on the part of houses with
heaVHp & to net the o S9se
cember 1903 oil .O3a and May 1.OSi@a to
1.0Ss. Corn finished to lie down,
oats unchanged to sdlc off and pro-
visions unchanged to 15c higher.
Word of deliveries on December con-
month, counted as a bearish factor in
the wheat market, as did announcement
that Russian wheat was beginning to
arrive in England. Besides, revised es-
manned 14S,00O.000 bushels in excess of
requirements, even after import needs
had been figured on an enlarged basis
and after the eXportable surplus had
been reduced. 1t was only as the day
drew to a finish. however and weak
ness in the corn market increased that
the selling of wheat led to any decided
change of values, commission houses
support being sufficient until then to
check declines.
The stubbornness with which the
wheat market most of the day avoided
setbacks was ascribed largely to Wash
ington reports about Secretary
Hoover and other government officials
expressing themselves in favor of some
plan to finance exports of foodstuffs to
Germany. News of likelihood that the
United States would be unofficially rep
resented on bodies to investigate Ger
man reparations and finances came too
late to affect the market.
Hedging sales depressed the corn
market. December delivery in particu-
lar. as did sales of corn to ge into
store here. Oats were relatively firm
owing to scarcity of offerings.
Talk of assistance for Germany
strengthened provisions.

Urge Formation
Maine Baseball
League Next Year
Bangor Commercially

Although it is far cry to the open
ing Of the baseball season some Of the
Maine cities and towns that support
semi-pro teams are already making
their plans for next summer and we
note that suggestions are being ad-
Vanced for a Maine league, or two
leagues, eastern and western, and for a
maximum salary agreement. These
are propositions that we have ao-
,vanced as bound to make for increased
interest and more stable financial foot
ing. The fans cannot properly critl-
cize the standard of play for the lead
ing teams in the State have given a
high grade of baseball. largely due to
the generosity of industrial concerns
or individuals Bar Harbor, the Milli-
nockets, Oldtown., South Brewer ana
other places have had high class teams
and in the western and central parts
of the State fine mines have been sup
ported in Sanford, Portland, Lewiston,
South Paris, Pennington. Augusta and
elsewhere. \ regular schedule lead
ing to declared champion team
would certainly increase the public in
terest.
~ The cities and towns indulging IN
semi-pro baseball would find their task
much easier and their financial bur-
den greatly lightened if they would
enter an agreement for fixed salary
limit. In recent seasons. the compe-
tition has been about as great in the
financial line as on the diamond. Some
towns by large expenditures to players
have distanced others hampered by
smaller treasury. and another unfortu-
nate course has been the hiring by
some mana gements of star players
from other teams by the offer Of larger
salaries. Let the managers get to-
sether, arrange for a definite competi-
ton and definite salary list and then
the teams will be on even terms ana
the communities will find their base
ball financial burdens much lessened.
Some of the Maine communities have
certainly been paying far more for
their baseball than is necessary TO
yield satisfactory results to the spec
tatorS.
The Bar Harbor management has
started the movement by asking for
the formation of State league with
salary agreements and Augusta has eX-
pressed itself in favor. The movement
should bear fruit.
