Washington development In re.itrd n
po.sibl result of German attarka on
armed merchant veaeels had a certain
hearUh effect on the wheal market here.
The outcome wa an unsettled close, Se
to V- dowe, with May at 11.11'. and July
at II.OVV Corn flni.hrd a shade to 'c

deemed downturn of the day In the prtc
of wheat. Quick announcement, how
ever, tnat su.-n an utterance had been
a recovery In tho market, althougn vaiueal
oniinue.1 in snow, aa during most of the
preceding time today, an evident tendency
to ranue lower than yesterday's finish.
The chief exception wa a bulge which
took place, upon receipt of advloea that
the German aea raider Moewa had been
captured. The bullish Influence of tha
rtews about tha Miarw waa more or leas
offset, though, by diauatche telling of
terrain submarine having destroyed
avvea ships.
riowrall throughout tho winter crop
art Hies acted from tha atari aa something
of a handicap on tha wheat bull., and so.
too, did lower quotations from Liverpool.
Kevortheless, interest devolved to by far
tha greatest extent on tha submarine
l!tlon. Not much waa heard of any
- export demand for United tUete wheat,
but It waa said aoma lot wera dlspoaad of.
Cora averaged lower wtth wheat. Any
radicel decline, however, waa checked by
tha laot that recelpta were light avid that
tha outlook was for an Improved domea
tie demand.
Oata developad little strength on at
count of signs of liberal buying for th
Seaboard. U could not bo definitely con
firmed that - Important sales had been
lued for export.'
Provision wero helped upward by
higher quotations on hogs. 'Weskneo of
grain caused a reaction, but In the late
transactions packers who early in tha day
had bee a sellers appeared to bav turned
to tho buying aids.

The plan contemplates not only
an effort to enlist In the reserve in
peace times teamsters, mechanics,

reserve system to include civilian
aviators, ordnance engineers, work
ers In munition plants, telephone and
telegraph operators and mechanics,
civil engineers, electrical engineers
and members of every other civil pro
fession or occupation whose services
would "be' useful to the army in war.

bill, but did not reach a final vote. . It
I expected tho measure will he completed
tomorrow, but a new effort to Increase
the proposed strength ha been altered
slightly In this regard and now specif
ically provides a minimum strength of

Correspondent Sees
Germans Just Start
With Verdun Fight
LONDON, March 2. The Times'
military correspondent, analyzing:
the situation around Verdun, de
clares bis belief that the long ex
pected big German offensive has be
gun, although he doubts whether
Verdun is to be the real point of the
attack.
He further' declares that no front
Is impenetrable in the face ot a
modern artillery attack, but he be
lieves that the allies' cue Is "keep
cool, to be avaricious in depleting
the main reserves and to keep in
creasing those reserves for action
when the Germans have exhausted
themselves." The writer'g belief that
the Germans are preparing to launch
their main attack at some point other
than Verdun is supported as follows:
"What the Germans hop for is to
attack the bulk of the allies' reserve,
cast of the Meuse, making an im
mense clatter thero, and the next
German blow from the northwest
probably awaits 4 the fulfillment of
this desire. The French appear to
have met the Verdun attack with re
serves Just sufficient to maintain the
conflict. There is no sign that Gen
eral Joffre has yet drawn upon or
even moved his main forces."
Gus Renze Insists
