OLOSE TO YEAR'S HIGHEST| The adjustment of the labor con- troversies that existed between the railroad managers and the trainmen made itself felt on the Omaha Grain exchange. Wheat made an advance of 5 to 7 cents over the closing price of last Saturday, selling at $1.46@ 1.50%: per bushel, spot, with the De- cember and May options 3 to S cents higher. In fact cash wheat came| pretty near to touching the high mark of the year. Receipts were heavy, there being 224 carloads on sale. Corn was strong to a half cent higher, selling at 80 cents a bushel, while oats were still stronger, the gain being 1 to 114 cents, selling at 434 @ 44% cents per bushel. There were forty-one cars of corn and sixty-five cars of oats on sale. Stocks Show Increase. Stocks in_storage in Omaha ele- vators continue to increase, having reached over 30,000,000 bushels more than on the corresponding date of a year ago. In bushels, now and one year ago, stocks in storage are as follows: Now Yoar Ago. Wh 109,000 132,000 106,000 | 3,448,000 64,000 Chiefly Wheat and Oa The total increase is 3,084,000 bush- els and it will be noted that it is largely wheat and oats. Dealers assert that while there is an enormous for- eign and domestic demand, the high prices have been such an incen- tive to farmers to sell, that it has been impossible to get the grain out as fast as it has come in. With the railroad labor situation practically cleared up and the foreign demand increasing, instead of dimin- ishing, local dealers assert that they Total going to be much lower in the near future. Highest at Chicago. Chicago, Sept. 5.—Heavy buying on the part of large houses forced the value of wheat today sharply higher. In some cases the advance amounted to 6% cents a bushel, the September delivery touching $1.51%4, as against $1.45 at the close on Saturday. ’ Although the settlement of the rail- way strike was partly responsible, tention chiefly centered on a state- ment by a leading expert that the con- dition of the domestic spring crop at harvest was the lowest ever known. According to another authority, the 1916 crop in the United States was 25,000,000 bushels, under bread and sced requirements, and allowed no surplus for export. “Y,. M.” to Hold Receptions For Boys of Omaha The boys' department of the Young Men's Christian association has issued invitations to most of the boys of Omaha from 10 to 16 years old, to at- tend one, of a series of ten afternoon parties and receptions to be held at the asgociation building, beginning Thursday afternoon, and continuing until the end of next week. The boys of the South Side, who have no building, are being taken care of as well as possible under the direc- tion of E. E. Herman, in charge of the boys’ work in that district. Mr, Herman is organizing clubs in churches and halls and is superin- tending the activities of these clubs and teaching English to classes of for- eigners who are eager to learn, Mr. Herman and R. H. Flower will meet the leaders of the boys' clubs and the social workers in the district Thursday evening to make more plans for the program this winter. SHE WOULD HAVE WOMEN “MAN" THE RAILROADS.
