HEAVY RAINS HAVE
-EFFECT ON
(By Associated Press) ir CHICAGO. May 24. Heavy rains that threatened to interfere with planting put the bears in corn today at a disadvantage. In this connection, a dispatch from Ohio sent by a leading Chicago crop expert attracted considerable attention. He said there was a large area to plant yet. Opening prices, which ranged from 1-8 off to l-4c advance, with June 137 1-2 and July-" 139 3-4 to 140 1-4, were followed by a moderate reaction and then a fresh advance. - Oats merely paralleled the action of corn. Trade was almost entirely local. After opening unchanged to K-Kc lower, with July 66 to 66 1-8 the market hardened all around. " Provisions weakened in line with the hog market. Lard, however, showed relative steadiness as compared with pork and ribs.

Honorable mention was given Friday to Isaac Burns, a solicitor in the French army, who went out alone Thursday afternoon and obtained $103 in dollar subscriptions. The generals of the various armies expressed their appreciation Friday of the support given them by the members of the companies. John M. Lontz, commander in chief of the drive, made a short talk at the close of the luncheon, pointing out to the men who had aided in the campaign, that they had aided the men on the other side to make a better fight. "When the men learn what we have done here in this Red Cross campaign they will know that they have the people at home behind them," he said, "when the boys come home, and see this list of contributions, they will know who have been their friends. "As to the people who refused to give, there were not many, I am In favor of leaving them to their own re

Figures Show New Craft Exceed Number Sent to the Bottom. (By Associated Press.) LONDON, May 24. The enemy is destroying British, allied and neutral tonnage at the rate of about 3,500,000 tons yearly, while Great Britain and her allies and the neutral countries will soon be producing tonnage at the rate of about 4,000,000 tons yearly, Archibald ,Hurd, the naval expert, writes in the Daily Telegraph. That
favorable situation declares, should be reached in a few weeks and thencefor
ward the upward curve in favor of the
allies should proceed in a manner to
convince the Germans of their failure. Realized in Germany.
There are indications, the writer points out. that the Germans themselves realize that the submarine campaign was a political blunder. The allied navies have not been weakened, he notes, and the submarine, which brought America into the war, has not been able to interfere seriously with the transportation of American troops and material. As a result of the elaborate preparations made by the admiralty last year Mr. Hurd comments, the sea is becoming an inferno for the submarine pirates, and the morale of the officers and men employed in the enemy's submarine service is steadily declining as is shown by evidence of the most conclusive character. . ..:' Losses Decrease Two-Thirds. . The naval correspondent of the Daily
News, analyzing the shipping losses for April, points out that the total of allied and neutral sinkings was hardly more than a third of that of a year ago, while there is not any likelihood, he says, that there has been any marked decrease in the shipping entering and clearing ports of the United Kingdom.
Although the effects of blocking the j
cases at Zeebrugge and Ostend ana the placing of the great new mine field in the North sea are not yet known, the Germans in the whole first quarter of 1918, the correspondent shows, sank little more shipping than they did last year in a single month, while the total losses for each quarter from April, 1917, up to the present have steadily fallen.
