Wheat Flurries, Then Drops With Moderate Losses; Corn Trails Up, Then Down; Hedging Sales Persistent; Oats and Rye Firm on Export News. Fv CHAFERS 3. ERYT>RN, l iii%«>r*al Service Staff Correspondent. Chicago. Sept. 4.—Speculative absorp tion of wheat futures today flattened oqt on the flurries and. with export trade h*M active, prices swung Irregularly to moderate losses at the close. Nudging ealee ffttered persistently Into lhe iiit on every upturn Late weakness itt Winnipeg effected the final reaction locally. Corn tralleil wheat up and then down. Oats and iys were firm on ex port nows. Eastern Interests bought wheat at the out st*t. There was evidence of export buying also, but not nearly ao extenaive as In the last few days. Selling around $1.30 for the December was pronounced both times the market hit that level. Private advices Indicated the corn crop was making rapid recovery, but this grain did not want for support on the dipt Export sales of 750,000 bushels of wheat were confirmed with intimations that the business may have been aome larger. Rye sales were 800,000 baahels barley. 300.000 and oata from 300,000 to 600.000 bushels. Liverpool closed H12M4 pence higher. Wheat closed down, oorn HfMfcc lower, oats He lower to Ho higher and rye unchanged to He higher. Apparently the prospective buyer of wheat futures Is going slow at the mo. mont. The movement of American spring wheat Is increasing while Winnipeg has already received a few cars of new crop c’anadisn grain. Yields In the American and Canadian northwest still average heavy. There were reports that the demand for gulf wheat was easier and that premiums had dropped. Corn held relatively steady at times, but failed to maintain Its gains. Com mission houses operated on both aides of the market. A much larger trade developed in oats and this grain for the late months moved up. Bullish Canadian crop news and In creased export sales were the stimulating Influences. Rye averaged higher to the last. Provisions were weak In a moderate P,t Note,. The belief that the world will need all the wheat grown still prevails. Later on In the season the adjournment of supply and demand la expected to be the closest lil several years. But there are few who anticipate any bull movement of prices ar. the moment unless serious damage to the Argentine crop develops. The situa tion 1n the southern hemisphere remains unfavorable, but conditions there so far have attracted little attention. Trade in the wheat pit has been lim ited for several days. Much of the buy ing was In the way of lifting hedges against export sales With hedges con tinuing it is apparent that the market needs constant stimulus to maJntaln price advances. For the present the trade re gards wheat as simply a merchandising affair. North American crops have been practically secured. There were reports that frost over Canada might catch some of the late wheat, but the Winnipeg mar ket did not reflect much apprehension in this respect. , . ... The world shipments thla week are like b to'be of fair size especially will they he libera! from North America. Clear Hnrcs of wheat from the Argentine. India and other surplus countries promise to be lighter. In the Argentine it Is claimed there Is but 25.000,000 bushels of wheat left for sale. The Australian surplus Is estimated a* 15.000.000 bushels, or con siderably more than this time last year. V, beat prices will probably mark time until further developments of Important naMost teports Indicate a better outlook for corn, but all agree that the crop Is late and the possibility of frost develop, ment is deterring speculative pressure. Fash corn was In fair demand st sealer price* today. The basis also was off. CHICAGO CASH PRICES. ny TTpdlka Grain company. Atlmtle 5311. Art. _ I Open. I High. I Low. I Clo»«- I Xt».

Omits Regular Quarter Dividend Stork Has Been Under Pres sure; Wool Situation Dif ficult; Nearly Entire • List Breaks. By RICHARD SI'IU.ANK Universal Hervlec Financial Kdltor. New York. Sept. 4.—The stock market had a shock today when the director# of* the American Woolen company decided to omit the regular quarterly dividend of 1 % per cent. On Wednesday the stock had been un der pressure and declined more than four points, American Woolen broke to 58%, which was 13 points down for the day and 17% from the high of the day before. The American Woolen company 1s ihe largpst concern of Its kind In America if not in the world. It operates 55 mills and employs normally about 60,000 per se ns. The wool situation has been difficult. Prices of wool have been very high-— as high almost as the peak In war days. The number of sheep in the world has been reduced greatly in the last 10 years. There was a flood of selling on the stock exchange immediately following the action of the woolen company directors. Practically the whole list broke. Even the pool favorites, American Can. Nor folk A Western and U. 8. Steel, broke badly. Stocks that made fair headway against the tide were comparatively few. Among the most conspicuous were some of the Van Swerlngens. Dealings in American Woolen aggregat ed 91.000 shares and made up about 11 per cent of the total business of the day. Outside of the American Woolen episode the market had few distinctive features. The disposition seems to be to await more definite information politically be fore doing much marketwlse. On general average the lose for the day waa about two-thirds of a point In both railroad and Industrial shares. Foreign exchange again waa slightly lower. In the grain market# the present atti tude seems to be one of watchful wait ing. At the opening there was a fair volume of selling under which corn and wheat eased off about 1 cent a bushel. Then the selling moderated. Weather students thought there waa probability of frost in Manitoba within the next 24 hours. British cables wrere disappointing and Argentine cobles showed no relief from the drouth. While the markets dis played a firm .undertone, bulls showed little aggrehsslveness. Germany’s purchases are expected to he increased considerably by reason of the credits established owing to the Uondon agreement. In anticipation of this buy ing iti e said German interests have been quite busy chartering ship* for cargoes bought from North Atlantic and South Atlantic port*. In the afternoon proceeding# the mar ket was better and most of the decline of the morning was made up by wheat and t orn, while oate and rye did even better. Wheat closed %c to %c down; corn from ‘Ac to %c down; oats from %c down to %c up, and rye unchanged to %o up. Uard declined from 2 to IB points. Cotton fluctuated within very narrow limit*. Coffee keeps going up 8ugar had one of its good daye. closing from It up for September to 2 up for March. Mar ket students are predicting that at lest sugar la to show some real activity. ----N | New York Quotations Lee Rubber .. 11 11 Lehigh Valley . . 64% 63% b4% 53% Lima Loromotlce 61 60% 60% 62% Loose - Wiles . . 65% 67% Louie ft Nash ... 98% 98 98 100 Mark Truck . . . . 97% 96% 96% 95% May Dept Store . 96% 96 96 if Maxwell Mot A .. 60% 58% 59 60% Maxwell Mot B .16% 16 16% 16% Marland . 32% 31% 31% *2% Mexican Seaboard 21% 21% 21% *1% Miami Copper .. ... 23% 23% Middle States Oil. 1 *§ J% Midvale Steel .
