CHICUiO. May 1S.t-(A. 1M
Wheat averaged hither in price yes
terday largely a a result of buying hy
houses with eastern connection. The
finish was unsettled at tho same a
yesterday' finish to 1-J advance, with
.May 14 1-4 to 1.46 1-2 and July 1.15
1-4 to 1.15 1-2. Corn lost 5-s to 7-8,
oats 3-8 to 3-4 and provisions 2 to 2J.
Sharp advance took place during
the first part of the day, but were
practically wiped out in the latter
trading. The eastern buying- which
carried values upward was ascribed
for the most -part to a prominent
speculator, who apparently had been
short aid who had changed his posi
tion. NeaKernesof the visible supply
total and of the stock on hand here
facilitated the upturn In valtlcs. Sub
sequent heavy selling was ascribed
more or less to profit taking and to a
setback in the price of May delivery at
Winnipeg where there was said to be
free country selling, crtving out of
support in the corn market here count-
ed also as a bearish factor In wheat to
ward the last.
Weakness which developed In prices
for corn and oats seemed to be due to
enlarged rural offerings of corn, the
result of the fact that corn planting is
Hearing completion.
Increased supplies of lard hero had
a bearish effect on provisions.

Oil Dull Market.
NEW YOHK. May 18. (A. i.)
Yesterday's operations in the slock
market were perfunctory and dull.
Men ere public participation seemed
restricted to the selling side. Some
rails suffered additional moderate
losses as a result of pessimistic views
uttered by transportation officials and
believed to foreshadow more dividend
readjustments.
Similar conditions applied to many
steels, equipments, motors and other
issues.
Although cull money held at seven
per cent, shorts were driven In before
the close by purchases of local traction
issues, as well as gas issues, coppers
and shippings. Final prices In most
instances were considerably above low
est levels. Sales amounted to 575,001)
shares.
Continuance of the holiday period
abroad detracted from activity of for
eign exchange. Except for the Dutch
rate, all important international re
mittances were firm to strong.
Foreign Issues were the most con
spicuous features of the bond market.
Chilean S'a reacted on dissolution of
the underwriting syndicate and Mex
icans lost ground with French munici
pals. Domestic bonds were steady, al
though the liberty group showed fur
ther irregularity. Total sales, par val
ue, 110,750,000.

ASTORIA. Ore.. May IS. (U. P.)
Astoiians who were admiring the sun
set across the great harbor at the
mouth of the Columbia river were re
cently treated to a rare sight when the
schooner Edward R. West, with all
sails drawing, came a-sailingout of
the sunset, to drop anchor off the city.
Wholly unassisted, the windjam
mer accomplished what is considered
impossible In most seaports, and came
the whole distance into harbor under
sail. Under ordinary circumstances
a sailing vessel cannot enter a port
without the aid of a tug. because few
channels will permit the tacking ne
cessary, the wind is seldom exactly
favorable and the river currents arei
likely to swing it from its course.
The channel at Astoria was deep
and wide enough to permit the West
to come in when sho found no tug
available at the time she reached the
entrance to the hurbor. The schooner
sailed the distance of 12 miles from
the open seas into Astoria in less than
two hours.
