be placed before the Bar Association
and judges of the Appellate Court for

legged ineligibility of Councilman
Paul Dunn was asked in a suit

FEDERAL CROP
REPORT CAUSES
Grain TO RISE
BuIIiSh Estimate on Corn
Results in Market Open
ing Higher.
BU United Press

0H OHttCU TTtb0
CHICAGO, Sept. 11.-A bullish
estimate on corn in the Government
crop report issued Monday sent all
deliveries sharply higher and i'm
parted strength to other grains.
Wheat made fractional advances,
although the report placed a high
figure on the total crop. Oats also
gained.
Wheat opened unchanged to &c
higher; corn was up lac to 215c and
oats were up 9sc to &c. Provisions
were unchanged.
The Government report on wheat
was construed as bearish. The total
crop was estimated at 901, 100000
bushels, a much higher figure than
that of the private experts who is
sued their reports last week, but
bulls affirmed their belief that
present prices had discounted any
pearish effect.
The estimate on corn caused a
sensation among traders. Although
the total crop figure, 1881 100000
bushels, was large, it fell consider
ably below private estimates, all of
which were above the three billion
mark.
The oats crop was placed at 1,453,-
100000 bushels. This figure was
about as predicted and it was be-
lieved that it would be without eff
feet.
