CHICAGO STRONG, HIGHER Grain Tonnage Asserted to Bo En Route From Holland to Amer ican Seaboard Government Inquiries for Flour Factor. CHICAGO. March 22. Assertions that a large fleet of merchant steamships from Holland and elsewhere was on the way to the American seaboard helped to lift wheat prices today. The close was strong. 1 to 2o net higher, with May at $1.86 to $1.86 and July at $1.57 to $1.67. Corn gained to lc oats to c and pro visions 15 to 20 cents. Announcements that the United States Government was making inquiries for flour and had let hardtack orders tended to In crease bullish sentiment regarding wheat. There also' were Indications that railway freight conditions were improving eastward from Chicago. Fresh advances tn corn resulted from bullish estimates of the yield In Argentina. Oats hardened with corn and wheat. Re ceipts were . light. Provisions rallied, owing to the strength of grain. Lower quotations on hogs had only a transient depressing influence.

Alarmed over the acute feed shortage, which has affected several -counties In 'his eec . tlon. R. N. Stanfleld. Speaker of the House of Representatives in the recent Legislature, passed through Baker yesterday on- his way to hla new sbeep ranch on the Snake River, near Roblnet. Mr. Stanfleld said that most of the sheep and stock men here have enough feed to. last them until April 1, but are aeriously concerned about" what they are going to do after the present supply runs out. "Most of the stock and sheep men are now feeding short," he said. 'This, of course, will result in- no Inconsiderable loss In beef and mutton shrinkage. Besides this. in numerous sections they are forced to feed grain, which, coupled with the un precedented high prices for hay, will eat 4nto their profits.
