FORESEEN BY LISMAN

NEW YORK, October 19.-F. j.
fisman, New York banker and rail-
road authority. who has just return
study of the railway consolidation
possibilities between Chicago and the
Missouri River, says he expects the
first important consolidation proposal
in that section will come from the
Hill interests, which control the Great
Northern, Northern Pacific and Bur-
lington.
He pointed out that there are now
only four class one roads in the dis
trict, which are as yet unattached to
the more important groups, namely
the Chicago and Alton. Chicago and
Eastern Illinois, Chicago Great West
ern and Minneapolis and st. Louis.
The Chicago and Eastern Illinois. he
said, might be used to advantage by
any one Of the three Southwestern
systems. the Frisco, Rock Island. the
proposed Loree combination or the
Missouri Pacific. but he expressed the
opinion that the best place for it was
with the Frisco, of which 1t was a
part prior to the 1914 receivership.
The Chicago and Alton, Mr.. Lisman
said, could also be used to advan-
tage by any of the three Southwestern
evstems, while the Minneapolis and

wheat PRICES CLIMB

Unexpected Upturns in Quotations
in Liverpool Lead to Fresh
Advances on This Side.
By the Associated Press.

CHICAGO, October 19.-Fresh un-
expected upturns in wheat quotations
at Liverpool led to material new
advance early today by the wheat
market here. Relief from stringent
. vessel rates to Europe was unprom1s.
ing and adverse weather was reported
both from Canada and Argentine.
Starting "a to / cent higher, Chicago
wheat prices continued to ascend.
Corn and oats We're also f1rmer, corn
opening at u to 5s gain and subse'
ouently scoring a further advance.
Provisions tended to sag.
Indications today were that all
wheat being offered to Europe Is
taken promptly whenever a vessel can
be specified as available to carry the
grain. Meanwhile, frost reports per-
sisted concerning northern Argentina,
where the wheat crop, especially In
Santa Fe and Cordoba, is at the head
ing stage, and Is susceptible to frost
damage.
Reduction of the French import
duty on wheat appeared to be a
noticeable factor today in strengthen
ing values. On the other hand, some
talk was current suggesting that on
account Of scarcity Of ocean vessels
there is likelihood of more or less
stoppage Of the wheat movement in
North America and consequent piling
up of supplies at Canadian points In
particular. So far, however, evidence
of any important slowing up is said
TO be lacking.
