I Dealing In grain futures started with an easy undertone on the Chicago board of trade today. Bownyard swing of wheat was attributed to hedging against country purchases. Speculative interest was light. Good growing conditions caused a fractional drop in corn. Interest in oats was lacking and prices held firm. Provisions were steady with hogs and cables.

Short This Year This season's honey crop will be at 'cast 4,000.000 pounds short of the usI ual 8.000.000 pounds annual production, according to Charles C. Yost, state apiary inspector of the censer- , vation department. Yost's estimate i» based on reports from all parts of the state showing an extreme in all conditions conducive to heavy production and successful tee raising. Weather conditions produced I too-early broodrearing, and early swarming. while the early dry weather dried up aud killed much of the white and alsike clover. Honey was obtained principally this year from the sweet clover which better withstood the trying season. While the yield of honey varies In communities, state production will be far below last season's crop. Yost predicts a higher price for honey this-fall because conditions I hat curtailed the crop in Indiana also prevailed in several other states. Q Judge Orders $200,000 Worth Os Liquor Destroyed Indianapolis. July 28 --Destruction of $200,000 worth of whiskej which formerly belonged to George Remus, “bootleg king" of Cincinnati, was ordered today by Judge Baltzeil in federal court. The liquor was seized three years

ago at the Squibbs distillery iu Lawreucebuig. Ind., and is stored in the basement of the federal building, | Some of the liquor may be turned over to tlie government, but most of it will be poured into the sewer under Judge Baltzell's ruling. The liquor stock conslists of 1,55') cases of genuine whiskey. The government charged Remus ' had It stored in the distillery at Lawrenceburg for distribution through his rum syndicate. Remus is now seevttag a sentence at the Atlanta penitentiary for a violation of the federal dry laws. I o Roof Fire Causes Small Damage Today A small roof blaze caused the fire department to be called to the Reynolds home in Oak street about eleven o'clock thjte morning near the Clover lj?af Creamery. The fire was soon extinguished and very little dilmage was done. Several patches of roofing were Torn off in an effort to put out the fire 'The blaze w«« thought to have origin- ■ ated from sparks from an Erie engine.

WILLIAMS INVITES THOROUCH PROBE Director Os Highway Commission Wants Examiners To Go To Bottom Indianapolis. Ind , July 29 —John D. Williams, director of the state high way comtniHuion, today inviNed a “thorough investigation” of cnmuiisslon records by the state board of accounts. "I want to see the examiners of the accounts board go to the bottom of things,” Williams said. “They can see any or all of the hooks of the commission.” Williams' challenge for a searching probe of the commission's accounts answered reports circulated about the state house that the examiners had been denied access to payrolls and expense accouuls of the commission. Examiners of Uic board of accounts it was learned, are looking over the records of the commission, for the third time within a little more than a year. It was said the examiners were attempting to secure additional evidence for the two reports made. The first report charged gross irregularities in the disposal of surplus war materials by the commission. The war materials were turned over to the state by the federal government and later sold by the commission. On order of Judge Collins in Marion county criminal court the report was impounded and never made public. In the second report Otto Schlenaker. Indianapolis auto dealer, was charged with malting 850.000 excess profit through sale of auto parts to the commission. Schlenakcr returned the disputed amount to the state and later brought suit to recover it. The suit is still pending. Trott,hlos of the highway commisSton were further complicated by the ousting of ChesJeigh Gray, chief engineer. by Williams yesterday. Gray was on the point of resigning because of disagreement with the commission over spedifications for a road in Marion county but Williams “beat him to the. draw.” ■Williams dismissed Gray and named William Titus, bridge engineer, as chief engineer. BUMPER CROPS ARE FORECAST Business Survey Shows Improved Conditions In Central West

Chicago, July 29 —Bumper crops, renewed industry in moat flacking, increased aoLivity in the production and sales of farm equipment, contrasts with a decline in automobile and furniture sales furnished the high lights of the monthly business survey of tire seventh federal reserve dis trict. made public today. The survey forecasts a bumper crotp throughout the central west, and announces that harvesting of small grains is proceeding rapidly. The yield of hay is low, but is offset by a heavy carry ever from a year ago. Early crops, particularly of canning peas made a poor showing, but the prospect for the late crop ' looks bright, the report states. lowa's crops appear to be particularly above average'. A larger quantity of meat was produced than iin Ahe previous month, and empioyrp-'iit increased 4.3 per i cent in the industry. Sales reported by 58 packers aggregated a six per cent Increase over 1924. Prices in 'Chicago advanced, all save lambs which showed an easy tendency. | In the agricultural implement field the billing was greater for the period Ithaii it was in 1923 and 1924. Employment remained practically stable. | o-Z-.-. Wheat Production In 17 Countries Shows Increase | i I Washington, July 29. — (United Press.) —Wheat production in 17 countries which normally produce more than three-fourths of the world's wheat crop will total 2.109.(100,000 bushels, an increase of 44.000.000 bushels over last year, the department of agriculture forecast today. The crop is not yet made and there is still a chance for unfavorable weather conditions to affect adversely the final outturn, the department added. o KEYSTONE —An oil well, drilled receatiy op the Irvin farm near here !is now making eighteen barrels a ' day. The owners are planning to drill other wells In the same vicinity.
