GRAIN QUOTATIONS

E. W. WAGNER A CO.'S REVIEW CHICAGO, Feb. 10. There is an increase ot traders who feel that May corn has been depressed sufficiently for a time. Farmers are mainly holding; Argentine at present level is $1.45 New York basis and very little can be imported before May. On the other hand Argentine offers credit against food export. U. 8. industrial situation is weakening. There are fur- . ther reports of a one billion pound copper surplus, and that copper company's earnings will be small for a long time. Western sentiment Is radical against any interference of the United States in European affairs. Three months ago the farmer wanted $1.50 for his corn, now he wants 91.25. Consumers are Indifferent, big saving in corn is being affected. Some critics point to the natural ice crop failure and say it will effect meat consumption in the coming summer. Provision bears also figure a cut of 20 per cent in domestic consumption. Chances for free wheat market are slim for the present, this suggests $2.26 wheat for the month and may keep corn at $1.00 in the country. On an easy market n today a bulge is due Tuesday. Cash " corn was 8 cents lower Saturday.

Maurice Shelton, a trustee of the Michigan City prison and a member of the Rochester Commercial club, is father of the measure. In cities having a board of public works that body . is. trustee of the fund, and In other cities the boards of trustees will expend the fund. -The common councils or boards of trustees are authorized to levy a tax note to exceed one-half of one percent of the assessed valuation cf real estate within such city or annually issue bonds of said city to that amount. Payment of the "industrial funds" are made through the . commercial clubs or chambers of commerce of the cities. Cities may subscribe for stock in any such factory, industry or commercial enterprise or purchase its bonds or donate money up to 50 percent of the aggregate amount of stock or bonds subscribed for when the enterprise has been established, the bill provides. If the amount of subscription or proposed donation is more than $10,000, the bill provides that no part of it shall be paid over - for a period of twenty days after contracts between proposed manufacturers and the custodians of the "industrial funds." If at any time within the twelve days a petition signed by fifty resident freeholders and voters of such city shall be filed in the office of the city clerk, demanding that the matter be submitted to the vote of the resident legal voters. The execution of the contract is suspended until the results of the election are ascertained.

NO EXTENSION FOR FILING OF INCOME RETURN Initial Tax Payment Must be in by March 1 5, Commissioner Roper Warns. That there will be no general extension of time beyond March 16th for the filing of returns and for the payment of income and excess profits taxes due on that date. Is the decision

M Daniel C. Roper, commissioner off internal revenue. The announcement I was made today by Collector Peter J. Kruyer immediately following the approval by the senate and house of the report of the conferees cn the -new revenue bill. "It is necessary to get the initial tax payments in by March 15th," says Commissioner Roper. "Noother course is possible. Some months ago, the treasury issued certificates of indebtedness to an amount approximating $800,000,000, maturing March 15th. The first payment of the income and excess profits taxes for 1913 was planned for that date, to meet this huge obligation. "The American people have proven that there is no emergency too great to be met and solved by cooperation. This present situation is another emergency which can be overcome by cooperative effort. The bureau extends its every force toward this end, and I am relying upon the people to meet the situation whole-heartedly. "The Internal revenue bureau must carry out the program prescribed in the new law, which requires all returns for 1918 to be filed on or before March 15th, 1919, and requires the first quarterly payment or the entire payment to be made on or before that date. . -. Full Payment Urged "Every taxpayer who can possibly do so is urged to make full payment of his Income tax on or before March 15th- The quarterly payment method Is intended for taxpayers whose finan cing of the tax at one time would tend to upset local financial conditions. "The approval of the report of the conferees by the senate and house of representatives brings the new revenue bill to the point where it may be said to be law. The internal revenue bureau has been making preparations to collect the taxes which it provides, and is now putting all of its efforts into aiding taxpayers to fulfill the obligations imposed. "The bureau has arranged to send an advisory force of several thousands
