Scarcity of Available Supplies and
Higher Ho? Quotations Re
sponsible for Uplift.
CHICAGO, July 9. Two dolfars a bushel
for corn, a price once regarded as fabulous,
was surpassed today In the market here.
Scarcity of available supplies, together with
new top record quotations on hogs, had much
to do with the advance. The market closed
nervous at c decline to 84c rain, with
September 1.05H to $1.05 and December
M.HIU to 31.61S. Oats finished lc to
-4 c up. in provisions the outcome was un
changed to 35c down.
Ordinary No. 2 yellow corn of the usual
contract grade commanded $2 for Immediat
delivery, and No. 2 white $2.02. July 00
tlons reached as high as $1.00. an upturn of
6c within 24 hours. At first, however, a
majority of dealers seemed to believe that
excellent crop conditions prevailing war
ranted a setback ln values. But this view
was quickly dispelled by an unusual lack of
ouerings ana oy general notice of the soar
ing 01 bog values.
Oats displayed independent strength ow
Insr to crop-damage advices and to Improved
Provisions svmDathized with rain
nogs, nut tne etiect was later more than
counterbalanced by selllnt on the nart of
commission nouses.

Oregon crop conditions for the week are
reported by the weather bureau as follows:
"The week was one of variable tempera
ture; temperatures above 90 degrees were
record In some f the interior valleys.
while frost was reported from elevated east
ern localities on the 7th, doing no damage.
few light showers occurred along the
coast. In tha Willamette valley and in the
northeastern counties. Dry, dorth westerly
winds were a feature in other parts of the
state. Water for Irrigation la scarce in
some sections.
Harvest of rye, bsrley and winter wheat
Is In progress ln many places. A con
siderable acreage of rye that was Intended
for threshing has been cut for hay on ac
count of frost damage, winter wheat
promising In the Willamette valley, and ln
the principal wheat counties there Is much
good wheat despite the long drought. Spring
wheat is very poor in some sections, bu
In others will make a good crop. Corn
lias made good growth In southern Ore
ron, but needs rain; Irrigated corn ln Mai
heur county is excellent; elsewhere warmer
weather is needed.
"Picking of cherries Is progressing ran
Idly, approaching completion ln some sec
tions. A large crop of loganberries is being
gathered In the Willamette valley and coast
counties. Early apples, peaches and apricots
are ripening in Douglas, Jackson, Umatilla
ana Mameur counties.
"Cutting of the first crop of alfalfa has
been completed except in the more ele
vated central counties, where It will be
begun soon; the crop was considerably re
duced by frost ln May and June in elevated
districts; the second crop of alfalfa will
soon be ready to cut ln southern Oregon.
Wild bay Is generally below normal. The
lower ranges are drying rapidly, and in
some localities feed is scarce; high ranges
are good. Fasturage in the western coun
ties is excellent.
"Stock Is doing well In most sections, but
In a few places Is beginning to show the
effect of short feed.
Early potatoes are being marketed in
Increasing quantities. Over considerable
areas ln central Oregon the potato crop
will be light, owing to rrost ana drought:
elsewhere the outlook Is fair to good. Gar
dens generally need rain. Hops are looking
well."

NEW YORK, July 9. Under the influence
of easier money, today's stock market re
sumed the upward movement which marked
the renewal of operations after last week's
triple Holiday. 1
Operations during the mornlnff and inter
mediate periods were on a par with Mon
day'g 2,000,000-share turnover, but activity
abated later when the market seemed to
be undergoing a process of assimilation.
Call money opened at 9 to 10 per cent,
but at midday a leading banking- institution
offered smail amounts at 6 per cent. This
evidently exerted a sympathetic effect, rates
soon declining: to 6 and 6 and closing at
5 per cent.
The tcftie was only moderately firm at the
opening, but strencthened almost immedi
ately on Canadian Pacific's 9-point rise, the
jump in that stock being attributed to some
thins more tangible than a drive against
the ehorts. Oils, motors and their sub
sidiaries and minor rails were next taken
up, a buoyant tone prevailing at noon, de
spite considerable realizing and consequent
reactions.
In the last half hour, after publication of
the government crop report and announce
ment of the ratification of the peace treaty
by the German assembly, the market was
stirred Into furious activity, numerous lead
ers recording best prices of the season.
Among, the stocks then In favor were
shippings, electric equipments. Ohio Gas.
American Paper and -International Paper,
Canadian Pacific also breaking Into new
high ground. Sales amounted to 1,700,000
shares.
Pronounced Improvement was shown by
sterling and francs and the outward move
ment of gold to South America, Spain and
the orient proceeded in larger volume.
Bonds, Including liberty issues, were fea
tureless within restricted limits. Total
sales, par value, aggregated $9,300,000.
Old United States bonds were unchanaed
on can.

TOURISTS NOT WELCOME
Confusion as Result of. Kusli of Vis

(Copyright by the New York World. Pub

PARIS. July 8. (Special Cable.)
Despite the clamor from French hotel
keepers and business interests, there is I
yet no decision to allow American tour
ists to come to France to visit the bat
tlefields and buy French goods.
At the American embassy it wae said
however, that restrictions in, traveling
to Europe probably would be modified
rapidly, and it was said mat even now
certain restrictions had been relaxed
considerably. This was partly revealed
by the arrival of some 1500 Americans
on the Chicago at Bordeaux. The move
ment of troops is taking place daily,
while the cost of living in France is
yet unchanged and the sudden rush of
visitors might tend to create confusion
in France, with her programme of re
construction. At the headquarters of the American
peace mission it was learned that Sec
retary Lansing, while lacking complete
information of the state department re
strictions on traveling in Europe,
thought that people in the liberated re
gions, where American visitors would
flock, should first be asked their opin
ion. It is generally believed that
though these people would be glad to
welcome American friends, they fear it
would be too difficult to house and
feed them, for these districts are still
suffering from want of food and houses.
