ARGENTINE CORN CUTS OFF EASTERN TRADE Market Now a World-Wide Af-. fair With Puzzling Conditions Confronting the Producers of the West. FARMERS' DELIVERIES LIGHTER Bullish Sentiment in Wheat and Reduced Receipts Have Supporting Influence on Values on All Weak Spots. bv d. michakl.

It looks a good-deal like the tail I. Ant. with Argentine corn coming into ine East in volume to supply the industrial demand, which has for years been the best price-making factor in the market, and also a little Danubian corn bought last wek to com 'to New York, all at lower prices than it can be laid down for from the West, It was a factor that cut off the demand from that section, as Argentine spot corn lold In New York at 6bp and was replaced by purchases of February shipment at 6Cc. At the same time there were several car- goes received from Argentina at gulf ports. l'his corn can be put down to Texas common points, as figured by some in the trade, at 5c undr the domestic product from Kansas City.

WEST BKIVU I M)RHIIIM). Argentine corn is about ouua! to our No. 3 yellow, as figured by some of the best men in the trade. It is selling at enly 3Sc over the No. 3 yellow in Chicago, and the trade here is suffering from lack of demand.

Another important fai tor in the trade which seldom happens is that prices at Missouri river markets are within a cent two of Chicago. This makes another Important factor in the situation, owing to the drought and loss of the Southwestern rop, anu mere is relatively a nener iraae Jn the South and Soutliwi'st for domestic lorn than in the Hast. With thirteen bteamers loaded with Argentine corn en route for New York, the Eastern buyers arc going slow, while the Western consumers are taking bold fairly. The Argentine crop Is estimated at frOO.OOO bu. with an exportable surplus of bu.

A fair ef ort call on tlie weak spots for i i naru-wiHier uta(, wiia larger sales cere than for some time past, was the most Important new factor in the market last week, as there has been no foreign 'demand for some time past.

Stocks of hard wheat here outside of the holdings of one house are light. Tho same Interest, however. Is also largely interested in Kansas City and is doing most of the business. Milling demand was fair, but the flour trade quiet, and two mills at Minneapolis closed last week because of the slowness in getting shipping directions. There Is a bullish sentiment in the trade, and despite the weakcess and demoralisation in corn, wheat was well supported on the breaks round 91c lor May, anil that figure was touched four consecutive days only to react.

In the foreign situation there has been little chance. Australia is shipping- more freely and Argentina and India sparingly.

Russia is shipping more freely than last year. Consumption is heavy aid supplies are expected to decrease from now on.

"BETTER RACE" MEET HITS RUN DEFENSE Theory of Henry Smith Williams 'on Gradual Elimination of Drinks Assailed in Battle GRAHAM TAYLOR ON PROGRAM Chicago Man Speaks on Social Evil and Suggests Means Whereby Traffic in Vice 'w May Be Checked. Special Dispatch to The Inter Ocean. BATTLE CREEK.

Jan. 11. Henry Smith Williams, having essayed a mild defense of the well-known demon rum, was engaged for a greater part of today in preventing his scalp from becoming a trophy on the lodgre pole of the National Confer-tnce on Race Betterment. Professor Robert Sprague of Massachusetts Agricultural College, who went out in the midst of the fight to take a canteen of water to Williams, retired after some slight skirmishing, leaving Williams to his fate. At a previous meeting Williams, who writes scientiDc articles for magazines, had outlined a plan for high license for saloons, it appearing to hinr that the stein is much more to be preferred than the demijohn.

humanity has forgotten the stronger liquors and is going along quietly, happy with a few dally glasses of Milwaukee's best," "Williams' plan would cut down a man's allowance un I til water is uted for drinking purposes throughout the country. WILLIAMS IS OPPOSED. Upon such a point the discussion turned and during' a long morning session speakers from as far as Dea Moines Indulged in a relay philippic against Williams and his theory. S. S.

McClure discussed today the essential differences between municipal government in the United States and Germany, giving Germany the long end of the 'argument. He favored, he salL such arrangements as that lately made effective in Dayton, Ohio, where a manager with full power "to hire and Are" Is running the town night and day at a salary up around $12,500 a year. Such a plan. McClure said, might be worked with some measure of success In most of the cities In this country. 4.R AIIAM TAILOR SPEAK.

Among the speakers were Dr. Gull-ford H. Sumner, secretary of the Iowa state board of health; Graham Taylor of Chicago and Dr. J. N.

Hurty of Indianapolis. Mrs. Ella Flagg Young of Chicago, who was expected to. speak, was unable to be here. "The Bphere-f the medical man has been enlarged, said Dr.

Sumner, "and ite has discovered that tuberculosis, typhoid fever, diphtheria, scarlet fever, smallpox and many of the diseases are economic maladies, and" trade and occupational diseases will not disappear until social conditions have been made better. "Every city should undergo a thorough cleansing often," lie said, "and all refuse matter should be cremated. Dumping grounds are pesthouses for the hatching of germs'. No citx should be accounted clean until its ordinances require every cellar door to be widely opened to the sun and air and the cellar itself thoroughly cleaned." Professor Taylor outlined the extent to which repression of the social evil is possible and suggested means by which traffic in vice may be checked. The conference will conclude Its sessions tomorrow night.

CONGRESSMAN WOULD CLOSE CHICAGO RIVER TO NAVIGATION Fred A. Brlttrm Hellevrea Htoae Uridam Wowltl Katvc City In Nalatraaare Coat. Abolition of swinging or Jacknife bridges across Chicago nd the construction of permanent stone structures is sought in a resolution carried by Congressman Fred A. Britten to Washington yesterday lor immediate presentation to congress. It authorizes Congress to direct the Secretary of War to close the river to navigation by permitting the construction of permanent bridges.

Mr. Britten says that all tbe business along the river can be handled better if vessels discharge their cargoes at the entrance to the river and the goods are delivered by lighters. Handsome stone bridges, he says, can be constructed much more cheaply "than the present structures and greatly will aid in all city traffic1. The resolution is taid to havo the backing of a number of large business houses. In the city council tonight Alderman James F.

Burns of the Twenty-First ward will ask the passage of a resolution directing the corporation counsel to prepare an opinion on the 'city's right to construct permanent bridge. Mr. Britten declared that reports of experts show that the loss in time to In- dividuals end all forms of traffic as well as the original cost and maintenance tf thc present Chicago bridge system costs the citizens of this city $35,000,000 annually, besides greatly decreasing the value of property in the north and northwestern parts of the city.
