Liquidation has been heavy and general. Every group of stocks is feeling the effect of this and Talues are declining rapidly. There is no new explanation to be offered. It is the same story of business stagnation. It is only necessary to take a glance at the reports of the steel and Iron Indus; ry. The business has decreased to a figure that is pitiful, and who knows when the change Is coming, fone are venturesome enough to express the opinion that a change will come in August, but we have had previous suggestions of a sim'la- character, which have not been verified. Dnrinf an investngation that has been made recently as to the causes fvr the decline in tic building industry. It developed that in the important c’*y of Buffalo. X. Y„ Lut one apartment building was erected ir. ai entire year. It is use’ess now to disc - ; the various causes for all this or to fir the blame for the same. The situation Is here and liqut lation is proceeding ami there is no indi cation at this time of any change in this respect. From appearances It looks as though further selling of this kind will follow, and under the circumstances lower prices seem to be inevitable. TWENTY STOCKS AVERAGE.

GRAIN VALUES SUFFER DECLINES Lack of Buying Power Causes Slump in Prices. CHICAGO. June 20.—Grain prices declined on the board of trade here today as the result of surplus supplies and the IhcF of buying power. Provisions were higher. July wheat opening at $1.27%, was off %c, and declined an additional 2%e at the close. September wheat declined %c at $1.23 at the opening and dropped 3%e at the close. July corn was off l%e at the opening at 63%e and dropped an additional %<• at the close. September corn opening at 63%c, remained unchanged throughout la.er trading. ly oats were off %c at 38-%c at the start and declined an additional -%c later. September oats opened at 39%e, off %c and dropped %e later. (By Thomson A McKinnon) —J line 20— Wheat—The weather was considerably better over Sunday in the spring wheat country and favorable in t lie winter wheat belt. There was some steadiness early, but it soon gave way to liquidation. based on prospect of a liberal run of now wheat this week in the Southwest. Cash premiums gave way some and the buying power in all the grains was very dull. Offerings of wheat by previous holders increased with the weakness and considerable local selling.. based on the nnsettlednpss in Wall street also played a part. The buying power continued unable to absorb the free offerings throughout the session. Disappointing threshing returns were here from all places in the winter wheat belt where work was being dnop. but it had no effect on the market. Export business was entirely lacking. There was an increase of the’ visible supply of a fairly good quantity. Cash whei t declined with the futures and was from 3<- to 4%c lower hero, while dark wn at in Kansas City showed n decline of 8c to 10c. Covering by shorts made bulges at times. We expect the movement of new wheat to largely make the price unless fresh trouble shows in the spring whpat crop. Corn and Oats Very favorable weather for corn induced libera! spiling by the holders. The cash corn was lc lower and while New York reported some export business, it was not. largo enough to cut any figure. Reports on oats wi re still of an unfavorah'e nature and with the crop very spotted, but. this had no effect today. Provisions Started steadier with higher hog market and made some advance. hut tiie general liquidation in grains prevented its holding. The eotisiipiptive demand still kc-ps good etiougu to look for supporting orders in tills mar k<>t almost any time. Hogs dosed 25c higher. CHICAGO GRAIN TABLE. v —June 2ft WHEAT- Open. High. Low.

WOODROW READ POEMS; WARREN PLAYS QUOITS Harding Is Member National Association of Horseshoe Pitchers. REVIVAL OF OLD GAME By FREDERIC J. HASKIN. WASHINGTON, D. C.—The facts having gone forth that President Harding is very fond of the game of quoits, or horseshoe pitching, that he has joined a national association of .horseshoe pitchers, and that he may pitch horseshoes in the White House yard to recuperate from the strain of running the country, the friends of this fine old American game hope that it may achieve anew popularity. There is a tendency in this country to follow the lead of the President in matters of sport. Mr. Roosevelt undoubtedly did much to popularize the study of birds, and he probably also helped by his example to swell the army *if American hunters. On the other hand, it is not of record that Mr. Wilson, whose favorite diversion is said to be reading aloud the poems of Wordsworth, caused any heavy sale of that bard's works in America. The American mind does not take easily to Wordsworth, but it should take easily to horse shoe pitching. For. although played in England and Scotland, the game Is indigenous to the United States, and may confidently be regarded as 100 per cent American. Furthermore, it smacks strongly of that America of yesterday, to the spirit of which we are now trying to return —the America of peace, contentment, "normalcy,” America supremely self-satisfied in the belief that it is the greatest and most perfect nation on earth, America dozing in the warn sun of prosperity untroubled by its relations with the rest of the world. ORIGIN OF HORSESHOE PITCHING. Horseshoe pitching had its origin in a thousand little crossroad towns, where, on summer evenings, well-fed farmers gather under the tree in front of the blacksmith shop. For the most part they sit and smoke and talk. They are not restless men. They never play tennis or golf or anything else strenuous, because they get i lenty of exercise inching hay and digging potatoes. But a w and again the spirit of play strikes them in a mild and friendl) form. Old horseshoes are lying ail about. Two pegs are driven into the ground, and soon a game is in progress. It is i good-na-tured, easy-going game. Conterted points are decided finally by an umpire armed with a straw. There is no hard feeling, no perspiration, no excitement. It is the typical sport of a well-fed, easygoing, complacent folk. You can imagine a man with revolutionary thoughts in his head playing a fiery game of tennis, but you cannot imagine him playing quoits. It is not, in fact, a game calculated to appeal to any man who is leading an exciting life, whether its excitements are chiefly Intellectual or chiefly physical. Its pleasing but monotonous movements and mild crises are diverting only by contrast with daily tasks even more monotonous. It belongs in the same school of things with the old swimming hole, the country fair, the church sociable. It traces its ancestry even farther back to the day3 of husking bees and quilting frolics. It Is associated vj‘h (he smell of wet black earth and growing corn, with the long still country evenings when frogs and eri-kets sing, with simple tasks and neighborly feelings, with a fried chicken dinner on Sunday and a good soothing sermon, and a long nap in the hammock on the ’rout porch. It belongs to .the good old American school of philosophy which holds that God is in his heaven and all ia right with the world, that civilization began after the revolutionary war, that every American boy has a chance to he President if he will just lie on his belly in front of the fire and study as hard as Abe Lincoln did. Such Is the environment that produced the game of horseshoes, and.it still flourishes in what is left of that environment. You do not see it played much in New Y’ork of Chicago, or any other big city. It does not fit in with the subway rush and the roar of lower Broadway. Men and women who struggle with straining nerves for life and love aud money, who shimmy in jazz-racked cabarets and pack the follies and the movies are not horseshoe pitchers. They would vote horseshoe-pitching a deadly Imre. Nor is it in tune with the mental life of the new metropolitan America, which is so self-conscious and worried—the America that reads Mam street and patronizes British high brow lecturers, and tries hard to guess what is going on in Russia. Antebellum, horseshoepitching America had barely beard of Russia, regarded Main street as the best place this side of Heaven, and gave to all foreigners a rich and condescending pity. Can America be led back to the sweet and placid contentment, the beautiful faith and ignorance of the early horseshoe-pitching days? RI LES OF THE GAME. But it must be added th*t horseshoe pitching has, to a certain extent, kept up with the times. The game of quoits, properly so-called, is a sort of urbanized horseshoe pitching, in which iron rings, especially made for the purpose, are used. This is an international game and has its tournaments and champions. Horseshoe pitching proper, as far as we can learn, is a purely American game.

Should you desire to take it up, In ordA to gat your mind in tune with the ■ ministration, we here give a brief sillH mary of the rules as promulgated by iV less an authority than the Grand Leagn of American horseshoe pitchers. It decreed by this organization that tlfl pegs shall be 35% feet apart. Each M them must be 30 inches long and must project 9 inches above the ground, and the pegs should incline toward each ether to the extent of 1 inch from the perpendicular. Y’ellow clay dug up to the depth of six inches, and wet enough to prevent a shoe from slipping or bouncing, should surround the peg on all sides. The pitcher’s box includes all of the territory for three feet on either side of the pegs and six feet behind it. The shoes which are pitched must be not more thau 7% inches lonkg, 6% inches wide and 3% inches between the heel caulks, and each shoe must weigh not more than 7% inches long, 6% ounces. In a first-class game, unless the shoe lies within six inches of the peg it does not count anything. The closest shoe counts one point, and if both shoes are closer than either of the opponent’s shoes, it counts two points. A ringed counts five points if your shoe land* right side up and three points if it turns over. Os course, a ringer does not count if your opponent knocks it off the peg?*G The friends of the game claim that It is the friendliest contest possible. They say that men who play quoits together never have any serious disputes. They also say that the exercise it affords is excellent, especially for elderly men. The bending to pick up the shoes is especially salubrious. It can be played by all ages and both sexes, and anywhere that you can find fifty or sixty feet of level ground. At the same time, a high degree of skill is possible. If you can pitch a .-hoe weighing over two pounds and make it ring a stake nearly forty feet away, you have good nerves and a good eye. The horseshoe pitcher in the White House is said to have both.
