NEW TORK. April 9. Attention was di
vided today between tbe progress of the
liberty loan campaign and the course of
events along the Franco-Belgian front.
To the renewal of Teutonio diversions in
ths latter quarter -was attributed ths heavi
ness of prices and gradual reduction of deal
ings, total sales barely approximately 1
000 shsres.
Coppers displayed relative firmness on ths
resumption of operstlons In Mexico. Shsres
of sliver companies made niFreaponse to the
bill Introduced in tbo Senate fixing SI as
the price of the white metal.
Pacifies, grangers and minor rails were
lower by ons to slmost three points, motors
and oils reacting about as much, while snip
pings snd obscure specialties were slugfiisb
at more moderate recessions.
United States Steel again forfeited tne
better part of a point.
More than ordinary activity was shown
bv international bunds. Anslo-French
selling at the year's best quotation, though
gaining only a fraction. Liberty issues re
acted at the outset, the 4s hardening later.
Total sales, par value, aggregated 4.5:'.,
000. United States bonds, old Issues, wen
unchanged on call.

claim in a queer manner to her father's
estate valued at $200,000.
In I860 Mrs. Harrington's father
deeded to her all his property and
placed the deed in a safe in his home
Soon afterwrad a flood destroyed the
home and carried the safe away. Dur
ing dredging operations In the bed of
the Platte River near Kersey recently
the safe was uncoverecTSind its con
tents, including the deeds, were found
to be in gobd condition. The recovery
of the deeds clears up the title to the
estate, which has been in controversy

CHICAGO. April 9. Likelihood of higher
prices for future deliveries when new-style
trading begins tended today to uphold the
corn market. Steadiness prevailed at the
close, which was exactly the same, as 24
hours before, with May $1.274. Oata lost
to He net. In provisions the outcome
waa a gain of 5 to 7c.
Corn traders' interest centered- chiefly on
forecasts of price levels for July contracts.
A popular opinion was that the right value
basis would be fixed by comparison with the
cost of No. 3 mixed, which today sold at
about $1.4501.50 a bushel.
Absence of seaboard demand weakened
oats despite changes expected soon in con
tract grades.
Provisions sympathized with higher quo
tations on hogs.
Leading futures ranged as follows:
CORN.
Open. TTlgh. Low. Close.
