GRAIN AND PRODUCE MARKET Exporters Still Hare Faith in Abil ity to Land Breadstuff in Europe. WHEAT IS A LITTLE LOWER OMAHA, March 1. 11. Exporters seem to have little fear as to the ability ot tnc ocean carriers to land breaustuns abroad without any great amount ol trouble or oelay. VeMi'l room it being taken from day 10 day .in a lib eral manner tor stupmcnta, Including wheat, oats r.r.d corn. Mtn the possiuio. exception ot England and Frame, me stocks of brcadatufts In the old world are quite smail. It may be said without fear of oontraalction thai supp les held In tho two countries named are not large, aa they continue to buy from day to day at Chicago and the smaller markets ot the world. Additional reports were received by (.able of the supply of breadstufis In Germany being abnormally small, and these same caides told of a reduction In the rations of th German army. A fea ture of the market for several days past has been the taking of corn by France. These puichaaca. while not large, showed there Is a possibility ot corn being pur chased In large ciuantltiea because-of the smaller supplies of wheat than wanted. Receipt? at westorn points from July to date, 3iB.457.0Oi) bushels, as against 2W. m.m for a like period last year. The large holders of corn In i the weotern country, especially nt Chicago, feel more encouraged by the liberal takings of that grain by France, the purchases the last two days being iono.oOO bushela, and ves sel room has been engaged for the ship ment of this gram. Country movement of corn Is smaller and the country la not selling In as liberal a way aa formerly. Kansas city reported good sale of corn for export. Western receipts since November 1 were 1,727.(W bushels, compured with loi.K,00 bushels for a like period last year. Oats continue to be taken In liberal quantities by exporter and the trade on the whole believes that this grain is In a strong position. Western receipts from August to date were U7.037,or0 bush els, compared with 14,502,OHO bushels a year ago. Hog prcducta show a lack of buying power even on the soft spots to material ise, with the big storks of manufactured products here the principal cause of lack of demand. Tho hog situation may be called weak and against prices, as tho averago farmer Is unable to see any profit In feeding high priced corn to low priced hogs. OMAHA SPOT MARKET.

Blockade meas ures not equalled In a century gave al most a knockout blow today to a wheat market staggering from terrific selling, due to signs that unlimited Russian ship ments might soon hf coming" through the Dardanelles. Aftor breaks that reached 7ie. prices closed at 5ih5Hc under Sat urday nlcht Other net losses were: Corn, l-m&.Hia to 2Kilc, oats iWliic, and provisions tm"vi2W-. Rushes to unload investments In wheat began the instant that trading could start. Reports of fleet successes against the land aefensea of the Turks had been so pronounced that dealers here had only one tnlng in mind at the outset the prosrct of an overwhelming number of ltusrtnn cargoes crossing the Black Be a nd the Mediterranean within a few weeks and slopping .to an unknown ex tent the European demand for wheat from America. Values here withered away 6VjC In the wink of an eye and sub sequent rallies of 2'o3c proved brief. New low levels In the wheat market heneaih those tuched In the first smash were uncovered after midday. Foreign purchasing of l,000,0i 0 bushels for spot, cash delivery had failed to bring about pny lusting return of confidence on the part of holders. Then came word of lremler Asquith's speech In Iondon Im plying that all ships carrying foodstuffs would be In danger of seizure. Berrrl-panlc lollowed In the wheat pit. and although final quotations showed an upturn from the lowest figures of the sesnion the ef fect was due largely to wild efforta of short sellers to realize profits. Corn suffered from the depression of. wheat. Many stop-loss orders were caught on the decline. Buying on the part of strong Interests did not have much ef fect. Onta for a write seemed to have more strength than other grain. Persist ent liquidation, though, finally forced down prices for oats even more relatively than lor corn. Free selling was the rule In provisions as well as in grain. Coverlne by shorts did not do much to check the ensuing break. Futures were quoted as follows: OMAHA GENERAL MARKET.

Trading lost none of Its pro fessional character and prices showed little change until late In the session when the cables told of England's de cision to declare an absolute embargo on all shipments to and from Germany. Anticipation of this move wea oen In Die market for foreign exchange, all of which ere again unsettled with acute weakness In remlttsnees to Germany, France, Italy and Hwltxerland. There was also Increased selling of American bonds for future delivery, most of which was traceable lo German source. These offerings, however, made no Impulsion on quoted values. The most unfavorable feature so tar as domestic conditions were concerned wss found In the statement of January earnings submitted by the Pennsylvania railroad. On Its lines eat of Ptltshiirgti a net decrease of $J77,0ii0 was shown, hlle west of Pittsburgh the loss amounted to $70.000.

Th occu pation gone comprise the whole of Bel- glum with tho exreptlon of territory Im mediately adjacent to the fighting line. ' The German authorities have carried out the undertaking with scrupulous care. . Ther never ha been any Interference by them with foodstuff Imported by the commission, and the whole of these' food-, stuff or their equivalent have gone to the Relglum civil population. "Ther were awkward situations " In ' some localities; for Instance, where troop were billeted on the people 'and where German officer and soldiers were eating" In public restaurants, but these dlfflcuU-.. tie were solved by th Issue to thl com mission by the German from fhelr mill--tary stores of a liberal 'quid pro'-quo.',.'" "Without entering Into any discussion of the right or wrong of requisitioning' foodaturr from the civil population dur ing th early part of the occupation of Belgium, I wish to point out that a Bab-i glum normally import five-sixths1 of IU ' foodstuff even had no urh restrictions been made, Belgium would long lnc have been without food except for til ,.

The Germane cannot and will not upply lo.ooo.ooo people north ' of the German line with food. - : "Those In Belgium with paper money are no less dependent upon ua for food than the destitute, and every pound of food w are abl to Introduce Into Bel gium by the mercy of a charitable world ' prolong Just that much more Belgian life and ha nothing to do wth the taxe.

The famous hoax of the first week of war. when a body of Russian soldier, ald to number 100,000 to 200,000 men, was reported to have circled around from Archangel, landed In Pcottlsh port and been shipped through at night to reinforce the Brltleh force In France, originated with Lord Kltctienar himself, according to a state ment made by a British officer to a cor respondent of the Dally Dispatch. 1 It lo noteworthy fact that although tho myth spread Ilk wild fir through the Pnltod Kingdom, with any number of witnesses to awear they had aeen aqd talked to the Russians In their native language, the press bureau did not laaue an official contradiction for a long time. The Russian atory, ay the British of fleer, was designed to Impress the Gar man commander in Belgium and north ern France and to keep them In fear of a surprise either In 'the rear Or on the western flank. Jt accomplished lta pur pose, for thl dread was real among th German staff and account to om ex tent for the retreat of General Von Kluck from Pari. To give color to the report. Lord Kitchener 1 said to have caused 100 transports laden with sundry good. to be sent from Scottish port to Archangel, after Insuring them in Holland- And when th British troop were moved fropi varlou point in Scotland and th north of England to channel porta, he ordered the blind of the train to be lowered. o a to arouse popular curiosity and speculation.
