est In the stock market today.
Call loans opened and renewed at 8 per
cent, rose to 10 pr cent at noon, gradu
ally advancing to 14 per cent, a rate only
once exceeded this year, in the final hour.
Kor all material purposes time money
ceased to exist, further bids of 8'4 to 9
per cent brinstns out only the smallest
supply.
Foreign exchange, particularly the Lon
don rate, continued to react from the high
Quotations of recent days. In this con
nection it was noted that the weekly state
ment of the Bank of Knpland gave no hint
of proHpoctive gold exports to this market.
The Bank of France reported only a nom
inal gain of bullion, while its discounts
and advances increased almost 70,000,000
francs.
The stock market was inclined to move
forward In the early and intermediate
periods of the dull session, but most gains
were cancelled when money became the
dominant' factor. Pales, 3'J5,00O shares.
An element of interest was injected into
the bond market by the increased activity
and strength of Belgian 7s. which rose
a substantial fraction. Other foreign Issues
were steady to firm, but liberty bonds and
some of the rail were mostly lower. Total
sales, par value. $12.8r0,000. Old United
States bonds were unchanged on call.

Checks to Be Made Good.
CHEHALIS, Wash., June 24. (Spe
cial.) A former Centralia attorney,
O. T. Wedmark, who was alleged to
have issued bank checks without hav
ing funds on hand to pay same, was
returned here yesterday by Deputy
Sheriff Poyns to face a charge of
larceny. Wedmark has arranged to
make the checks good and the action
will probably be dismissed. He was
employed in a mill at Port Ludlow,
W ash., when arrested.

SELU6 IS PERSISTENT
CORN" RECEIPTS -AT CHICAGO
ZiARGER THAN" EXPECTED.
Market Weakens and Closing Prices
Are Sharply Jjower Grain
Above reeding Value.
CHICAGO, Jnne 24. Persistent selling,
together with larger receipts .than ex
pected, had a depressing Influence today
on the corn market- The close was nerv
ous, 2 to 4c net lower, July $1.76 to
1.77 and September, $1.67 91-67. Oats
lost c to lc and provisions 10 9 22c
Corn was under bear pressure through
out the day. During the last part of the
weakness became more acute, largely ow
ing to an opinion expressed by a leading
authority that prevailing prices were 25
to 50 cents a bushel in excess of feeding
values.
Oats gave way with corn, although de
clines were retarded somewhat.
Provisions reflected setbacks in the Tal
us of grain and hogs. -
The Chicago market letter received yes
terday by the Overbeck ss Cooke company
of Portland said:
Corn The outstanding feature of the
day's news in corn was the weakness in
cash corn In the local markets as well as
in the eiouthwest, where declines ranged
from 6 to 10 cents a bushel. The. premium
for spot was oz-ly about 2 cents over July
in Chicago, the smallest of the season.
Receipts of over 200 cars came as a sur
prise to those who have been anticipating
for the past week that the movement
would show a sharp falling off. Perhaps
they are right, but there are no indica
tions of It as yet and any decrease wilf be
due to transportation conditions and noth
ing else. A great many holes have been
filled in, and we do not anticipate any
urgent demand for spot offerings in the
immediate future. ,
Oats The action of the corn market was
the dominating influence in this commod
ity and the close was lower. Cash pre
miums were easier, but attracted little
attention as crop news at the moment is
of more importance to the trade.
Some reports are coming from the late
sown crop heading short in Illinois, but
elsewhere conditions are generally favor
able. The ability of the present prices to
hold depends upon further crop deteriora
tion. Provisions Support was lacking and
products under pressure most of the day.

OIL TEST IS SLATED
Attempt to Locate Commercial
Flow to Be Made at Forks.
HOQX7IAM, Wash., June 24. (Spe
cial.) Within the next two weeks a
test with the hope of locating a com
mercial oil flow In the Forks Drilling
company's well at Forks, western
Clallam county, will be made. So
far all the oil encountered has been in
a soft dark shale.
Steps have been nade to send down
perforated casing. The six-Inch cas
ing has been put down for 200 feet,
deeper than any other well on the
peninsula.
Considerable time will be required.
however, to carry out this work, it is
expected. Every time it nas been
necessary to pull the casings it has
recmired several days to get oacK to
the bottom of the well on account of
the soft character of the shale strata
at the bottom, and the gas pressure.
Kelso Supplied With Gasoline.
KELSO. Wash., June 24. (Special.)
A carload of gasoline ordered from
an independent Los Angeles refinery
will arrive here tomorrow. This car.
ordered a short time ago. will aid
