DUN'S REYM OF TRADE Further Progress Hade in Meeting Serious Problems , CONDITIONS DAILY IMPROVING Opejilna; Made in ForelsTO Exchange by Which It is Possible to Move Some Wheat for Export. NEW YORK. Aug. H.-Dun'g Review will say: Further progress has been made In meeting the serious problems of money, exchange Insurance and trade, arising out of the Euroiean war. The govern ment is co-operating with bankers and merchants In dealing with the unpre cedented situation and an Important conference was held In Secretory Mc Adoo's office in Washington, to which many leading business men were in vited. While many exchanges remain closed and the foreign exchange embargo con tinues, conditions are dally Improving and courage Is displayed ln meeting each new emergency. An opening has been made In foreign exchange, by which It la possible to move some wheat for ex port. Failures In the United States for the week were 313, against 272 last year. In Canada forty-five, against thirty-eight last year. BRAOSTllKKT'S TRADE REVIEW War's I'naettlement Felt In All Lines of Business. NEWYORKT Aug 14-BiHdstreets will say tomorrow: War unaetlempnt runs broad and deep throughout nearly all lines of American trade and Industry and commodity prices fluctuate sharply, though generally tend ing higher. Btlll many features are evi dent which seem bound to bring about an ultimate restoration of now greatly disorganised forces. The Federal Reserve board has begun work, the possible strike of western rail way men has been averted and sub mitted to mediation, the railway freight rate situation haa been to a certainty eettled, banking and currency conditions are settling down to an approximation of normal, considering existing condi tions; popular uneasiness as to financial matters has been largely conspicuous by its absence and the arrival of much needed rains has helped cotton, late corn and other late planted crops. Efforts to restore the foreign exchange market to something like normal are found In the attempts toward an approach to a system of payment for goods exported U other countries. Bank clearings for the week ending Auguat 13, at $2,216,IM.QU0, a decrease of 19.4 per cent from 1U13; failures at ?K, against 272 in 1913; wheat en ports at 3.it.313 bushels, against 7,517.f4.

CORN OFFERINGS ARE LIBERAL Heavy Rains lanace Many Farmers to Offer to Rell Off onie of Their Reserve fork at the Present High Trices. OMAHA, Aug II. l;U4. The J. Rosctihaum Oraln company re ceived a special cable from Liverpool yesterday raying that It was difficult to sell wheat owing to the number of rgr goes diverted to that market; that the trade la not inclined to buy additional wheat In America except on the usual payment terms. Flour Is wanted In the old world, a was shown bv the action of all Importing concerns yesterday. The Mar and Cres cent Milling company sold a lot of flour for shipment to the old world several W'eoks ago, or previous to the breaking out of the war, and shipment was refused unless the flour was paid for In advance. Wheat closed VulV' lower yesterday and the volume of trade was exception ally small. k-rger commission houses were free sellers, while the buying was led by shorts and those who believed that prices are likely to do better with the. export moverm-nt under way. A late rally In oats carried prices close to the previous closing mark. A message from New York stating that oata had been taken for export at that market waa largely responsible for the late firm ness. It is pointed out by tha bulls that where Canada snld us large quantities of oata last year there waa a probability of Ha buying from us thla year. Trading in provisions waa smaller. There were only a few trades In pork and It closed unchanged with Wednesday. Eard and ribs opened a little higher ln aymnathy with the better feeling at the yarda, but they quickly reacted and re mained almost stationary around tha bottom levels. Wheat waa le lower. Corn was to IH cents lower. Oats were unchanged. Winnipeg reported hedging sales there .gain on new wheat which is expected to move early. Fears there, however, are entertained of losses by frost. Kneouraged by the recent rains' and by the high prices prevailing, the country was disposed to sell more corn yesterday, Particularly those farmers In Illinois and lowa. The sales of cash corn to arrive were very liberal yesterdlar and local receivers said that much grain was of fered above the market. This weakening tone In the cash market naturally had Its effect on corn futures. liquidation waa quite heavy and new crop months suffered the brunt of the attack. There was a notice about decrease in the eastern demand for cash com here yeeterdav. Liverpool cloaed: Wheat Hd lower; oorn, Hd higher; prices nominal. Primary wheat receipts were 1.824.000 bushels and shipments of 43,0uO bushels, against receipts of 1.470,000 bushels and shipments of 464,000 bushels last year Primary corn receipts were f.23.000 bush els and shipments of 4M.0U0 bushels, against receipts of 381,000 buahela and Shipments of 215,000 bushels last year.

Trading on 'change today waa the lightest since the begin ning of the European war. Buying almost ceased at times owing to bearish Elver pool cables and because of discouragement re garding tha lack of exports. Wheat closed heavy, l(&2c under last night. Corn finished Slc down, oats off He to Vo and provisions varying from 2bc de cline to a shade advance. Resting orders to buy wheat on a de cline could no longer be traced. One of the reasons was a general belief that a cargo seized and diverted to British ports had a good deal to do with the lowering of quotations at Liverpool and with a break of U'Ac a bushel at Winnipeg. Boneflclal rains and tha fact that re-V celpta here wera larger than expected contributed to weakness In the corn mar ket. At one stage prices rallied owing to the rumors of large export sales of oats, but the effect on corn failed to last. Oats were better sustained than other cereals. It was persistently declared that both England and France had been buying oe.is today and yesterday In New York. Provisions averaged lower, notwith standing that tho hog market had an upward slant. Large holders seemed dls-y posed 10 unioaa ana mere appearea to be no active support except a little from packers and shippers late In the day.

For the five days supplies total 26.962 head, being a gam of mora than 16,0u0 over last week, but nearly 12, uou short of the corresponding day ot last year. Advices from other points were encour aging, and local shipper buyers bought such hogs as they needed during tha early rounds on a l'xul6c higher basis. Shipping pun bases were hsrdly ao large as on some other days of the Week, but at that they tc k over a very fair share of the supply. Packers were slow In get ting stsrted this morning, and their early bids were little If any better than stesdy. Hellers had priced their holdings at fig ures tbst were anywsy 16c ana In many cases 20c better, and as packers wera slow about raising their early offers, the killer trade wus during the earlier hours vny draggy. Along towards 10 o'clock, however, offers wei.i gradually raised, and when the aupiV started to move values looked all of b316c higher. Trade, which was so dull early, became fairly lively, and pretty much everything had been sold by shortly after 10 o'clock. The genoral trade can he quoted as KK3I6C higher, although a number of Individual salea looked flat 16o up. Su far as the packers were concerned. It was largely a $9 00 market. Bulk landed at a spread ot $8.9039 Hi, with a very fair sprinkling as high as $0.80, and a top of $9.35. tha highest cash price of tha year to date. Prices have " now recovered all of Wednesday's break, and are just about steady with Tuesday, the high day of tha year. Today's figures look 4jj0c higher than the close of last week. No. v. bh. Pr.

Trade waa a little siow at nrst in getting under wsv, hut once a break waa made everything was soon weighed up. Early reporta from ether outside points Indicated slow trade snd prlcee no better than steady at those places. The receipts were very (air for a Frldav, being estimated at some 7,000 head, against 10.262 head a week ago, 5.IM two weeks ago and 4.3JO a year ago, and the general quality waa verv similar to that of yesterday, thla apply ing to both sheep and lambs. Feeding sheep and lambs were badly wanted this morning, but very few of ferings of Importance were to be had. due t tha fact that the packer took practically everything on sale. Prices wera quotably steady to strong. For the week the receipts wera rather liberal, as they foot up In the neighbor hood of 68.0S2 head, compared with 64.. lit head last week. 33.949 head two weeks ago and M OJO head a year ago. Notwith standing tha tolerably liberal supply ot lambs st the disposal of buyers prices ad vanced lnti25c over the close of the previous week and on most days the packers furnished an outlet for the culls and seconds. Aged sheep and yearling offerings were abnormally scarca all tha week, consequently much sought after, which resulted In values showing as much advance aa In the case of lambs and in some Instances more. It waa a light trade In feeders all tha week, caused by the meager supply of anything In the line of feeders coming In. What lew feeding sheep and lamba changed hands during the week Brought prices generally l(f)20c higher than last week.
