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.

CHICAGO. March 1. 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:

NEW YORK, March 1 COFFEE The
market for coffee future opened 3 to 4
points higher this morning on scattered
covering and trado buying which emed
to be Inspired by the steadier ruling of
Braxlllan exchange and report of large
Braxllian shipment to Europe last week.
Price later eased off, however, owing to
apprehension that the British embargo
on' the shipment of commodities to tier
many might load to some fafllng off in
the demand and the close was 1 point
higher to t' points lower. Hale, 7,260 bags.

little change until late In the session
when the cables told of England's de

PF.TROGRAD, (Via I-ondon), March 1.-
The hlghrst Importance Is attached -by
the R'isslsn mllitar' authorities to ' the
German defeat at Prxasynat. It "I -aerted
by Russian staff officer that the
German' hope of uece during their
operation of the last fortnight along th
northern front was based upon their con
fidence In breaking the Russian line at
!'rxaynx. This attempt by the Ger
man to strengthen the position Of ttielr
left wing, which was n Important part
of their plan for a gigantic encompaaalng
movement extending from Augutowa to
Kastern Gnllcla. la said today by the
Russian leader to have failod definitely.
The Russian assert that the retire
ment of the German In tho north I mori
precipitate and disorderly than any pre
vious retreat In thla theater of th war.
They state that the German have aban
doned large number of heavy and light
gun and have even left behind wounded
soldier In an effort to execute a hasty,
retreat. This condition of affair, ac
cording to the Russian viewpoint, assume
added significance from the fact that the"
German are said to have employed wrni
of their bet troop In thl fighting. Thero
are many Indication that the German1
were entirely confident of gucresa.
Th reported German pln for 'under-'
taking a siege of Grodno) would now p
penr to be venturesome, with the Ru
slana advancing along the left bank of
the river Nleman toward tst Prnsatsv
nd endangering the position of th 0r-
man left flank. Tho claim 1 mad hr
that all the German troop which r-.
cently crossed tho Nleman hay agalm
been forced back to th other bank. .'
Although report from the operation In.
Gallcla are Incomplete, It would gppear
hat the Austrian, were mgklng little
headway In the attempt to force th Ru
ian to retire from that province.

Belgian Relief Work :
Keeping Thousands i
From Starvation
LONDON, March l.-Herbert C. Hoover.;
chairman ot the American Belgium relief,
committee, today Issued the following
statement:
"It I desired that certain fact b per-'
feetly clear In the discussions going on
In th American press -with relation to
the wo tit of thla commission.
."Flrt The Germnn authorities agreed
with' u In December that there ahduld.
be no further requisitions or purcha
of foodstuffs by the German army In'
the occupied lone of Belgium. 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 ,.
Import of thl commission.
"Second. fCvery Belgian I today on a
ration from thl commission. .Food. and
money are not Interchangeable. .A Bel-'
(Ian man with 81,000,000 In cash can ob
tain no more bread than the man who 1 .
destitute and without any opinion on th
Justice or Injustice of levle In tbe way ,
of forced Issue of paper money, I can a
reiterate that the Belgian pan only be '
saved from atarvatlon by the Import of'.
thl commission. 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.
Indemnities or monetary tranacactlon."
Kitchener Originated
Hoax of Russians'
'Trip Through Britain
(Correspondence of the Associated Press.)
liONDON. Feb. 18. 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.
