WAR SCXHE SETTLING DOWN Traders Are Instructed to rll Wheat for Exportation t nleas rtrmrnt I Made Brfnrt Grain Leave Coantry. OMAHA. A up. t, 1914. Tlier were many men to he "evn In the' wheat trade ester-day who Rive the welfare rf the Chicago Board of Trade little attention. Thene men are selfish and they are anxious to tone prices up ward In an attempt to recure proilts. Tht-y wera headed oif by the Armour broaers In a manner that canoed twin t become frightenau for the nvmieni and eeimf that they were checkmated on every t-ltie they remained out of the market and re fused to take a hand In the transactions during the remainder of the day. In stead of a runaway atfatr and sensational advances there were loases of Vni'V. Tr.ere was little In the surround, ng outside o the unsettled political situation abroad to cause prices to advance. Be sides the bis break In the future market at Chicago there were heavy declines In the cash ,art:cle at th biding outulclc points. The Amerlsan export association al a meeting on Wednesday night Instructed Its members to demand that the buyer pay the war rate on the property beiore it Is forwarded from the ports of tho Vnited Stales and Canada. New ora exporters have agreed mat no wheat be loaded unless the money is paid over by tha Importer before the wheat leaves our shores. There was no export business yesterday. Following- the action of wheat, corn futures went through a period of de moralisation of the outset, prices declin ing sensationally. The recent sharp ad vances In the corn have been due almost entirely to the bulge In wheat, and when the latter broke today It knocked down the main support of ".ho corn market. Lduuldatlon In the July delivery was the chief feature In the oats market yesterday, this month declining; 2 cents from Thursday. Hather than except the otual grain the longs In July deemed it best to even up Utelr contracts by unload ing it In the pit. Heavy liqiiidntlon by longs caused sharp recession- in provisional values yester day. vv heat was 1c to 2c lower. t.'orn waa lc hi a her and VtC lower. Hats were unchanged.

Anxiety In regard to ssttla:nents for July contracts was a thing of the past and it was evident that for the time being wsr news no matter how axcltlng prob ably would not affect tha market with any such violence as had been tha oase during tho preceding four days. Humors that Italy might refuse to Le drawn Into the war tended to ease prices 4'arly, but an upward turn followed on account of Increasing belief that a way rxn would bs found to allow foralgn-bullt ships 10 take American registry. Removal of the French Import duty on wheat had considerable to do with helDlne to harden nricee In tha last hour of the session.

While it Is early as yet to define tha full effects of European conditions upon domestlo affairs, it Is evident that new business In export gain has been brought to a standstill and cotton market matters are vary unsettled.

In the event of a general foreign war it is possible that the mar ket tor a fsw days might be badly de moralised from the lack of a good buy ing demand. The first effect of a war la generally to tighten up the money market, making it oirnouit ror large op erators to secure money with which to buy stock. Owing to the uncertainty as to what might happen a great many op erators ara cautioning their friends in the country to follow a very conserva tive policy in tne matter of stock ship menu until tha outcome of the present j war scare Is better understood. quotations on cattle: Oood to choice 1 corn-fed beeves, $9.003.75; fair to good corn-fed beeves, $8.bo4).00; common to fair corn-fed beeves, $L6urr1.60; good to choice rang steers, $8.3bru$.75; fair to good range steers, $7.bt31.36; common to fair range steers, $6.607.60; choice to fancy corn-fad heifers, $8. 0038.00; good to choice grass heifers, $6.60.60; good to choice grass oows, $6.2,Vj:-7.00; fair to good Jrades, $6.608.Z6; common to fair grades, 3.6CKu6.60; good to choice stackers and feeders, $7.604f.E; fair to good stockers and feeders, $7.00i97.60; common to fair stockers and feeders, 86.2fxa-7.00; stock cows and heifers, $6.607.25; stock calves, .OO-.O0; veal calves, J7.W10.60; bulls.

Tha week's supply of 44,178 head la mora than 4.0O0 smaller than last week, and about 600 short of tha sama week last rear. In a great many respects today's trade was a repetition of Friday's. Conditions were still very unsettled and while ship pers bought a few loads of their kind early, the figures paid were flat 16c lower than the same sort of hogs sold yester day, and speculators wera practically out of it. Packers apparently had mora con fidence in themselves mis morning, out at that the market opened very slow, and early bids wera in many cases as much as Zoo lower. Nothing was done for atrita a while, us sellers were wait ing to get their hearings before they made the large concession demanueu uy the killers. As the morning advanced values showed indications of a little more strength than they had evidenced early, but at tha best prices wera unsat isfactory to sellers, and when tha sup ply began to move slowly the figures naid were still around 16c below venter. day's general trade. After the movement started tha trada showed a tendency to firm up in some cases, but at the best time values were a big dime lower, while tha big end of the offerings showed tha long end of the break. Oenerally speak-ina- the market Is mostly 16c lower than Friday's average. Bulk of tha salsa waa made at 18 fcxue aO. the long string land tng at $8.26. There was a sprinkling of good hogs on t'P to $ Si, tne top. but it took pretty good stuff to beat $6-30. The aharp declines of the last two days have put a big crimp In the week's trade and for the week values look 26'jjx lower. With oniy fair rce:uis all week prices were held down by tne laxkcfs during the ftrst four days and the un ceriain condition developing Friday threw an already dun ana unsatisfactory market into a near-panic, values break ing Hki'Mbo In two days. As was stated yesterday this panicky tendency Is iirob ably oniy temporary, out It would be advisable for shippers tu go slow on marketing their aiock until things be come a little mors settled. to choice. !.ww..n; '".,'r,: iiwaknr at th. mnrtiln. service at thai era, feeders, n.aw.w. , .

Armour" million yesterday rescued the wheat pit from panic. Instead of chaos resulting from aaltle ment day In the midst of a wge market, with possible scores of firm embarrassed and a virtual certainty that bankruptcies, few or many, would ensue, tha Chicago Board of Trsde was eneblad to maintain the record of never having closed, no matter how great tha emergency, and to night not a failure, big or II (tie, had taken place. Tha chief reason waa that seventy-five entangled firms and Individuals on tha exchange nere freely given by Armour , Co., whatever aid the necessities ot the situation required. Marey tha Maa. President George E. Marcy of tha Ar mour Grain company waa tha man who arose to tha occasion. Ha quietly circu lated word on the floor ot tha board, partly In person and partly through his lieutenants, that any member In trouble today need t.nly come to him. Before nightfall Armour A Co. had taken over 8,OPO,OoO bushels of open trades, which If not transferred wera critically Jn danger ot not being safely settled In dua con- ' tract time, the expiration of . business hours at the end of tha month. In addition to tha relief extended di rectly, President Marcy, ordered tha sale of J.000,000 bushels of wheat In tha opan market and was thus largely Instru mental In preventing Chicago prtoaa from paralleling the wild upward sweep that In Liverpool today cama ahead of a stsso substantial fall. Tha Armour sales o wheat wars sup plemented by simultaneous disposal of 1,000,000 bushels of corn and an squat quantity of oats. Thesa sales ware gftsr- warda covered. by numeroug gradual pur chases whenever frit condition would al low without disturbing tha oourse of prloee. . Marer'a Statement. Mr, Marcy said tonight: "Tli Chicago Board of Trad today owed ft duty to tha country not to close. It wag not a similar casa to that ef tha stock exchange of New York City. Mill- . ion of bushel of grain In transit had to be cared, for, and th effect on railroad and other interests had to b taken Into account Grain are commodities almost wholly unlike stocks and bonds." Voslbly a dear Idea ot th strain that reached a climax today can b obtained from on wall verified example. On a single trad cna firm here of excellent standing ws called on for $660,000 In mar gin $400,000 at ftrst and then on a sec ond daman)) $X0.000. lrg.
