CHICAGO, ~May 24.—Susplioion selzed many people today that the principal May and September longs in wheat had beén unloading. -It'is certain that the market weakened « upder general selling for the new crop-months,” particularly July, Im- proving crop prospects, domestic and for- eign, poor milling demand, and weak Euro- Rean quotation all contributed to the bear- ishness of the situation. The close was easy with prices showing a net loss of 14@%e. The corn finished J@1le down and outs U@He to %c. Provisions scored a de- cline o There was a popular theory afloat at the outset that the wheat market was em- tied to some recovery because of the sharp decHnes of the last few- days. On such a bellef some falrly good buying was dond, but an“abundance of wheat came on the market. Brokerage firms cuted orders in 125,000 bushel lines of July and SeptemBer, ~ All bulllsh news was thrown to the winds, the trade busying itselt fol- lowing ‘the big selling orders. Hallles were feeble and ~were due mainly to covering shorts from time to time. he best and quickest of the reactions resulted from the purchase of about 1,000, 000 bushels ia_practically one lot late in the session. Gossip credited much of the heavy selling.to a big southwestern long. Information was circulated that another cargo of 240,000 bushels of Duluth wheat had been bought to come here for delivery on May, contracts. This steamer Is now en route,and will bring a cargo of 60,000 bu. to add. fo the local contract stock, which increased 988,000 bushels last week and 4s° now virtually 3,000,000 bu. No. 2 « grod winten, to arrive, either the first or last half of July, was offered here tiom Tllinols. ~Reports came from Oklahoma that only two weeks more were needed to mature crops there. The world's available supply was shown to be more 1 .bu, greater than a year ago. TR L ovn in the price of the September delivery ranged from 96G96%c to 98%c, with the close at 97%c, & net decline C. Corn weakened on the fine growing weather, mcreasing offerings from the in- terlor and-the poor shipping demand. Sep- {ember varied fram 59%¢ to 60%c, and closed easy at §0%c, a_loss of 1dec.

BANK DEALS GET ATTENTION Accounts Are NEW YORK, May 2.—The stock m: dropped back into a in contr; with the comparaitve animation Of the day before. The safling today to Europe . of . individuals who —have been prominent at times in the speculation was hit on as an indlcation they had been cleaning up accounts yesterday preparatory to this departure. The selling pressure was no longer In evidence today and the supply of stocks for sale was much dimin- ished. Uncovered shorts had to advance bids to get stocks. The tactics of the room traders to move prices made up the day's markel almost altogether, The course of the international exchange afforded some relief from_ the feeling on that account yesterday. The reaction in the Sterling exchange rate in Paris was even more violent than the abrupt ad- vance of yesterday and in New York there Was & reaction also, which was much more moderate. The private discount rate in London a% the same time relaxed. The belief was strengthened that this move- ment was associated with some of the government loan operations recently in progress in the Parls market and pos- also, with the closing of the bank- ers’ 'agreement in Paris regarding the Chinese raflroad joan. Detalls were still lacking of the placing of Amerl bond issues In France an: of any active ll?s in renewal of the pro- Ject to secyre admission of United States Steel to the list of the Paris Bourse, Both subjects were further discussed and helped to the firmer tone of stocks. The ap- proach of & London stock market settle- ment was & repressive influence In that market and by retlection in this market. the money market showed ‘an arrest with- out any marked change in conditions, More remote requirements came into con- sideration in’ the cahvass of the coming crop movement. The cautious policy now ursued by the Bank of England, it is clieved, may have in view these uitimate needs. Reports that banks in this country are reducing their loan accounts with the marketing of commodities which had been held back and also on account of land pur- chases are received with avowed satls- faction among New York bankers. —The cautlous feeling on the outlook finds ex- pression in the discussion of United States treasury finances and the possibility that théy may require & call on the national banks for return of some. part of the gov- ernment deposits now held. The decline in customs recelpts, while' conducing to this need, have another side in the indi- cation they afford of a decline in the ab- normal vote of the country’s imports and the consequent disioeation of the_forelgn rade, The speculative liquidation proceeded in both wheat and cotton and the immediate weather conditions, which were consid- ered good, had an influence in that move- ment.

Iirst bids were fully 10g16e lower than yesterday on the fair to pretty good cattle, while it was &lmost impossibie to get buyers to look at tne orainary light and medium welght steers. Eastern beef markets have been very for several days and this is given us the cause for the present decided siump in vaiues “Strictly cholce heavy beeves are rheps not a great deal lower, Bte very scarce while light and medium weight cattle are 2@S5c lower than th ‘were a week ago and hard to sell at tnat Up until & late hour in the forenoon only @ small proportion of the offerings had changed hands and the tone to tne trade was very weak. Supplies of cows and helfers were com- paratively small, but there Were enough on sale, however, to enable buyers to cheapen’ up, and 'the bulk of tne stuff changed hands at_prices weak to 100 lower than yesterday. Veal calves were in very fair request and quotably steady, but it took shaded prices to move buils, stags and rough stock generally. A little better reeling prevailed In the stocker and feeder trade this morning, as supplies were not very large and the :eca}rlu heavy decline in values has stimulated the demand somewhat. Light stuff generally s0ld a shade better than yesterday, while tho general run of medium and plain qual- ity steers and helfers went at about steady tigures.

Packers brought freely from the start, and with good quality as an inducement, & Very fair clearance was made hefore noon.

NEW TREATMENT FOR INSANITY Clifford W. Beers Promulgates New System of Mental Hygiene—Re- Inth t Commercial Bodies to Charity, ST. LOUIS, May M.—The reformation of law breakers, supervislon of poor houses and eleemosynary institutions and publio health were the themes discussed at the sectional meetings of the National Confer- ence of Charities and Corrections this morning, Clifford W. Deers, executive secretary of the Connecticut Soclety for Mental Hyglene, promulgated his new program in, relation to the treatment of insanity. He proposes a system of social service 'n asylums and a campalgn of education for the general public to the end that the stigma of having suffered from insanity may be removed from the popular mind. Commercinl Hodies and Charity. The responsibility ‘of the central commer< clal organization of a city and its relation to the standards of charlty work donme in that community were pointed out by How- ard Strong, assistant secretary of the Chamber of Commerce of Cleveland, O. “The Cleveland Chamber of Commerce,” sald Mr. Strong, “ls concerned with every movement for the betterment of Cleve- land, for the uglift of its citizens from & commerelal, clvie or soclal standpoint, and it is, therefore, as much a chamber of citl- zens as it Is & chamber of commerce. The chamber has in its relation to the charity of the city assumed as a fundamental prin- ciple that the charity which receives its support from the public Is in & sefse & public institution, and that the public has a right, therefore, to know its methods and to demand its conformity with an ae- cepted standard of efficlency. Fully #0 per cent of the money which is collected each year for the support ot Cleveland's charitable organizations is glven by the members of the Chamber of Commeroce or thelr familles. The chamber in recogni- tion of its responsibility, therefare, has as- sumed supervision of the charitable organ- izations of Cleveland. Because certain of the wiser contributors of Cleveland recog- nized the existence of a misconception of the standards of charity, a committee on ‘benevolent associations’ of the chamber was appointed. Because members of this committee discovered the existence of in- stitutions ‘which would rather give to an unworthy reciplent a Sunday dinner & thousand times over than let him break the Sabbath day by working for it° and be- cause they found organizations which be- lieved in ‘glving to whosoever asks and whatever he asks and leaving it to the good Lord in heaven to see to it that it does him good,’ the committee has continued its efforts and broadened the scope of its en- deavor. As fundamental principles for an effective scheme of municipal charities the committee has insisted upon efficlency, nonduplication and co-operation. In order to make effective its principles—and this should obtain in every city—the committee stipulates as far as is practicable that or- ganizations comply with the following re- quirements before endorsoment ls granted: “1. The organization shall fill & need not already well filled by existing organiza- tion, and not capable of being thus filled. “a, The need shall be relatively great enough to warrant the equipment and sup- port of a separate institution, “3, The organization shall agree to co- operate with other charitable institutions in promoting efficlency and economy ot administration in the charities of the city as a whole and in preventing duplication of etfort, “4, The mdministrative committee of the organization shall meet at least quarterly. “B, All funds shall be collected according to a method approved by the committee on benevolent associations. “§, The accounts of the organization shall be regularly audited and a copy of the an- nual report shall be filed with the commit- tee on benevolent assoclations. ‘7. The operations of the organization and its accounts shall always be open to the investigation of accredited representa- tives of the committee on benevolent asso- clations.’ Address ot Miss Lathrop. The lack of scientific information about the extent of dependency due to danger- ous trades was pointed out by Miss Julla C. Lathrop of Hull House, Chicago, in an address on ‘Jnstitutional Records and In- dustrial Causes of Dependenc: “The progress of invention and the cheapening of methods of production,” said Miss Lathrop, ‘“‘give a by-preduct of new trade dangers, mysterious as yet, but unquestionable. The subfect is one upon which the work must be done by the medical profession and other sclentists, Only as general facts are established, as to occupational risks, can we expect that case records in institutions will be kept as to register industrial injury. These great institution should themselves ba | centers of study and research and it is a shortsighted people which has by meager appropriations and. political inter- ference hindered the free development of a’ vigorous, sclentific spirit which would not only express itselt in clear case rec- ords, but would lead in securing the pre- ventive measures and the systems of in- surance which will inevitably follow such knowledge. The public 18 honest and gen- erous and eager to be just as well as generous, Today America;is haiting in t| matter of dignitied provision against the vicissitudes of Industrial and professional life, only because It is not given ascel 1 and inteliigible interpretation.’ PINCHOT SPEAKS IN ST.
