Substantial gains in wheat today
We're accounted for by the support of
commission houses with extensive sea-
board connections. combined with SELL
ing by local professionals. The news
was decidedly bullish, wires from the
east advising increased export inquiry
and business. The finish found wheat
firm, * to cents net higher, Septem-

to 1604, with corn ranging from ! to
II cent advance, oats / to II higher
and provisions IL to 25 up.
Minneapolis and Winnipeg markets
were sharply higher. leading the local
market all day and finishing with
large gains. Extreme bulges met with
from locals, but the market absorbed
all offerings NTH no sharp setbacks
and finished close to the top prices.
The general run of news from the
northwest was favorable to holders.
Farmers are reported as showing a
disposition to hold back wheat.
Wheat buying was also stimulated
by a local authority's estimate on the
Canadian crop showing 25,000,000
bushels less than was forecast by the
government report more than week
ago. Another expert estimated the
spring wheat crop at 100000 less
than an estimate made two weeks ago.
Corn registered a sharp advance on
reports of high temperatures. over the
southwest territory and several unfa-
vorable reports from states outside
the actual corn belt. This gave corn
independent strength which it main
tained almost to the finish, closing
within fractions of the days high.
Offerings of oats were light and prices

Johnston FavOrite
To Win in Tennis
At Newport Tourney

Newport, X. l., Aug. 19.-(AP)-
Six American stars and two foreign
threats remained in the quest for the
Newport challenge bowl at the end
of the third days play today in the
invitation tennis tournament on the
grass courts of Newport Casino.
William NJ. Johnston of San Fran
cisco, defending champion, who al
ready has two legs on the trophy, is
the favorite TO win the final round in
the upper half of the bracket, while
a choice in the lower lies between
Clarence J. Griffin of San Francisco
and Jose Alfonso of Spain.
The food of reVerSals continued
today when Norris Williams. 2nd.,
former national champion and cap
tain of the American Davis cup
team, was washed off the tourna-
ment lists in both the singles and
doubles. Williams bowed to a
namesake, Lucien f. Williams of
Chicago in the singles, the latter
winning in straight overtime sets,
7-5. rs.
The veteran team of Williams and
Washburn was the victim of an in
ternational upset in the doubles
"
a Canadian threat composed OF Will
lard Crocller, champion of the DOM
inion and David R. Morrice. The
latter won in straight sets, 6-3, GA.
Dr. George T. King of New York
who two weeks ago startled the ten
mis- world by defeating William NJ.
Johnston at Seabright, n. j., was
pushed out of the singles by Man
uel Alfonso, captain of the Spanish
Davis cup team.
Alfonso won rather easily. DR..
King offering meagre defense of his
position, in the quarter final bracket.
The Spaniard took the first set 6-3
and the second SO, never even eX-
tending himself during the match.
DR.. King was far off his game. His
drives generally went wild and when
he attempted to ease up and play
safe the ball found the net.
Johnston eliminated Alfred H.
Chaplin, Jr., of Springfield. Mass,
GA, GA to keep his place in the
quarter finals. Fritz Mercur of
Harrisburg, Pa, former captain of
the Lehigh College tennis team, con-
tinued his winning way, eliminating
Louis n. White of Texas, 0-6, 6-3,
rs.
The doubles failed to produce any
sensations except for the victory of
the Canadian pair over Williams and
Washburn. Play advanced to the
third round with one exception while
the Canadians went into the fourth
round by two consecutive victories,
drawing a bye in the first round.
