Gane was driving his automobfle west on the street when the one-man car operated by Motorman J. J. Youngs came along from the west. The rear door cf the car on the north side swung out into the street. Mr. Gane called to Youngs to direct his tention to the door but the car was not stopped. Mr. Gane endeavored to bring his automoblle to the curbing to avoid a coliision but could not, due to the fact that several cars were parked on the north side of the street. and he was forced to stop his car.

The fenders on left side of the automobile were badly damaged. The matter was repocted to the local po- lice department and the onnecticut com- many.

CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET Chicago, June 23.—Anxiety over heat and droughbt, together with predictions that the winter crop vield would be well below the June 1 estimate, led to a ma- terfal upturn In wheat prices tods Ex- tensive profit-taking _ sales, howeve: caused a reaction. The close was un- settled, at the same as yesterday’s finish to 3-8 higher, July $1.13 7-8 to $L14 and September $1.14 7-8 to $1.15. Comn gained 1-Sc to 1-2¢ and oats 7-8c to lc. Provisions finished unchanged to 10 cents Tower. Temperatures around 100 in digtricts where the winter crop was yet unready to harvest and where no immediate cooler weather or showers seemed likely to give relief had a bullish effect on the wheat market as soon ds trading began. Some spring wheat territory sent eomplaints al- 50 of hot winds. News of & heavy storm in Canada failed to have more than a transient contrary market Inflacpee, whereas Liverpool quotations higher than had been looked for helped to stimulate buying here. According to one authority every day of extreme hot weather tended to lower the prospect for the winter wheat crop. An- other expert said any probable increase of the spring wheat out turn would be insufficient to offset the lose of winter wheat. Export demapd meanwhile showed improvement. Europeans taking 500,000 bushels at the seaboard. The fact, though, that for the greater vart of the week the market here had been work- ing upward in price made the holding of new advances more and more difticult. Especially in the last hour of the ses- sion owners' efforts to realize profits were on a big scale, causing prices to sag. The market was being well support- ed nevertheless at the finish. Bullish crop eonditions strengthened corn and oats independently of wheat. Provisions were weaker on the line with the hog market. Chicago Grain Market. b Low.
