F-vport Demand Brings
Wheat Price Vp. i
CHICAGO, Aug. 24. An erratic
market in grain futures, which fluct
uated irregularly but rapidly the
greater part of the day, rallied strong
ly In the financial trading on reports
of local sales of 800,000 bushels of
wheat to export interests. The close
showed net gains of 3-4c to lc in
wheat, but corn was unchanged to
l-4c lower and oats unchanged to l-8c
higher. Provisions advanced from
Monday's decline, the options ranging
from unchanged to 20 points higher.
Wheat started with a moderately
firm undertone, due to heavy sales to
exporters after Monday's close. The
initial bulge brought out selling or
ders which caused a setback, but the
offerings were absorbed readily. Fluct
uations continued along these lines the
greater part of the session. Trading
being mainly local. Some buying of
September and selling of December
was noted. Toward the finish, the
buying power improved on the breaks
and the export business figures stim
ulated it further.
Corn was generally lower, despite
Monday's export business at the sea
board of around 2,000,000 bushels and
local sales today of 200,000 bushels to
the same account. 'Hot weather south
west, which was calculated to mature
the crop rapidly, was a factor In this
development.
Oats exhibited a fairly strong under
tone, but trade was limited and the
range of prices narrow. Shipping de
mand was reported slow In this grain,
but country offerings declined.
Provisions withstood a further
break in live-hog prices mainly be
cause packing house representatives
were moderate buyers of lard. The
trade extended to ribs.

Sentiments of the Sterner
Young Edgar Averill,
At Irregular Session
Slocks ilisc, Then Fall.
NEW YORK, Aug. 24. (A. re
stocks were irregular at yesterday's
opening of business, firm to strong at
midday and heavy in the final deal
ings, when transportations were sub
jected to renewed liquidation.
Trading was slightly more active
and the session's operations embraced
a greater variety of issues the more
substantial or dividend paying shares.
There were no surface indications,
however, of any change of profession
al sentiment.
Oils were the strongest features.
Sales amounted to 500,000 shares.
Apart from the quarterly financial
statements of the copper companies.
all of which disclosed larger deficits,
the day's news bore little direct rela
tion to market values. July state
ments of earnings submitted by the
railroads, were mixed, the Union Pa
cific system, however, showing a
heavy net gain.
Although money continued to flow
in from interior sources, call and
time rates were unchanged. Rumors
of an impending reduction of local re
discounts by the federal reserve bank
were discredited in well informed
quarters.
Excepting the Belgian rate, which
yielded slightly, all foreign exchanges
improved. Iiusiness Is international
remittances again centered in sterling,
france and builders, other quotations
being largely nominal.
Irregularity marked the trading in
domestic bonds, including liberties,
most of which recorded additional
losses. Total sales par value, $8,200,-000.
Sex

and Mrs. E. F. Averill. met his uncle.
Earl Coutts, yesterday and remarked
that a new baby had arrived at the
Averill home.
"Is it a boy or a girl?" he was ask
ed. "It's a girl Durn it!" was the an
swer. "Dad" Brown, local bill poster, has
named his faithful dog "Paste." We
presume the animal has staying quali
ties. A Word from the Cliffdwellcr
Sir:
My landlord likes to be addressed
as "Captain" but, in view of the fact
that he has hoisted my rent three
times in the last four months, it
strikes me that "Loot-tenant" would
lie a more appropriate title.
Are you with me or ag'ln me?

LINDSAY. Ont., Aug. 24 (A. P.)
Sir Pam Hughes, former Canadian
minuter of militia, died early today.
HONOLULU, Aug. 24. (I. N. S.)
Because he succeeded in producing a
double white hibiscus flower, a thing
neer before seen in Hawaii, John
Walker, Honolulu contractor. Is today
the proud possessor of a handsome
silver cup.
The donor of the handsome trophy
is Gerrit P. Wilder, a "kamaaina" (old
timer) of Hawaii and one of Honolu
lu's leading citizens. Outside of busi
ness hours, .Mr. Wilder is an enthu
siastic grower of hibiscus, the exotic
flower which adorns hedges and gar
dens throughout Hawaii. Over two
thousand known varieties of this
showv flower are contained in Mr.
Wilder's collection, but he lacked one
variety which he knew would be a
thing of surprising be"Uty If it could
be grown. That was the double white
flower, two of the great white blos
soms side by side on the stem. Ac
cordingly he pledged himself to donate
a handsome silver trophy cup to the
first person to produce one of these
rare flowers. That was three years
ago. and until now the trophy has not
been claimed. Then by merest acci
dent Mr. Walker. Ignorant of the prize
at stake, left a bouquet containing a
double white blossom on a bank cash
ier's desk, following a pleasant cus
tom of Hawaii. Mr. Wilder saw the
blossom and was told the donor's
name. A cup was ordered and now
Mr. Walker has something new to dis
play to company.
It Is not known whether It will be
possible to propHgate the new variety
succeshfully as a separate shrub, as j
can be done with practically all other
known varieties, many holding to the J
belief that the dollhle whifn llnNnm
