CHICAGO. April 24.—Wheat showed
early recessions of %@%c on general
rains in Kansas and a report to Bart
lett-Fraser. frob B. W. Snow, the
crop expert, that while there had been
some losses In the vicinity of Great
Bend, of that State, tlie ideal conditions
elsewhere would make up for this de
ficiency. The shorts were in the lead
as buyers. Liverpool was unsettled and
continental markets were higher.
Northwestern receipts were largely In
excess of a year ago.
Corn was ',4®%c lower on increased
offerings < f the cash and selling by the
principal longs in the pit.
Oats were a small fraction lower in
sympathy with the other grains.
Provisions were higher with the ad
vance in hog. at the yards.
There was heavy liquidation of wheat
toward the close of the day with the
Kansas crop report indicating 122.000.000
bushels <-n 7.200,000 acres, and the con
dition 89.5, the leading Ixarisii factor.
This caused a lot of selling and there
were longs in the trade who were anx
ious to secure available profits. There
were many to take profits. A big specu
lator was reported as a heavy seller of
July and September wheat during the
entire day.
Duluth reported another line of cash
wheat for export, but It was impossible
to learn the exact amount. Cash sales
of wheat were 35,000 bushels; corn, 500,-
000 bushels; oats, 200,000 bushels.
Corn closed with losses of % to V4c
and oats were % to V20 lower.
Provisions were sharply higher.

NEW ORLEANS. April 24. Liverpool
to-day showed some resistance to the
decline. Futures are about 2 points
better than due.
The Atlantics should get ruins to inor-
heavy rains in the delta will
the river situation and there
..., . .r. anger of low temperatures prettv
t-T'jT I far down into the western half of the
| bolt. Ml now depends on how cold it
1 Kvts and whether the early start will be
. I lost in portions of tin* belt. This fear
j stopped the soiling pressure this morn-
i*i\Vi : - dig and caused prices to rally to 12.10
fur .1 ill\ and to 11.33 for October.
New 8 ork seems to bold to the Idea
that more long liquidation must take
place before notice day without regard
to bullish Influence. This caused the
support hero, based or fear of weather
damage to hesitate and the market be-
came quiet and easier In the second
hour. Bearish comparisons are likely.
Tile- into-sight for the week looks
around 102,000, against 162.000 bales and
mill takings 314,000 bales last year.

The SIIKDAY AMERICAN'S
GREAT BASEBALL TEAM
All the important leagues of baseball are now in action. So are tens of
thousands of fans. So are also the men who write of the doings of the dia
mond stars for those same fans to read.
It is the newspaper with the STAR TEAM of writers that makes the
strongest appeal to baseball enthusiasts.
BUT—to be stars, baseball players and writers about the diamond
warriors must be fair and square. That is an essential part of KNOWING
THE GAME.
