The action of tho food administration In requiring that Im porters and distributors of green coffee op. erate under government license, cauaed great uncertainty and nervousness In the market for coffee futures today. In some quarters It waa apprehended that this ac tion was aimed against trading In futures or would arbitrarily control prices. A state ment from the president of the exchange that the food administration had no desire to Interrupt business and recognised the necessity of a hedging market served to al lay nervousness to some extent, but liquida tion was active during tne entire aay ana there was a very severe break In prices. The opening waa at a decline of 23 to 31 points wtth the market selling 70 points net lower In the lata tradlr. o In 8.40e for May and (.720 for Snp. jer. comparing with 9.08o and 9.(0c, the recent hiKh record.

Bradstreet's Review of Trade. New York, Feb. 1. Bradstreet's ' tomor row will say: RnalnnflK in an Industrial, as well as com mercial sense, Is hobbled, either because of r.araltv of goods, enforoea weekly enui downs, adverse weather condition, pauulty of fuel. Insufficient production or freight congestion. After seven weeks 01 coia stormy weather, little headway has been made In working out of blockades. Besides, what might be termed regular business Is subservient to war work snd while those thus engaged are optlmlstlo enough, pro ducers of less Imperatively needed pro. ducts are somewhat unsettled by the thought that purely civilian busines may have to undergo further restrictions. Never theless, there Is a srtong disposition to speed up on war work, and In a general senso there Is sufficient buying of uomestlc staple lines to make up a goodly aggre gate. There Is more or les evidence of the ultimate, consumer exercising conservatism and at the same time there is enough actual reduction In civilian demand for men's goods to make for Irregularity. But against these manifestations .are the con ceded shortages of wtaples, the fear of still higher prices and the patent prosperity of the working classes and agricultural com munities.

Psacs gossip .together with moderating weather that promised en larged receipts gave the corn market today a downward slant. Prices closed - easy, at the aame as yesterday's finish to o lower, at. $1.26 March and $1.24 to $1.24 May. Oats underwent a setback ot lc to lc net Provialona gained e to 20o, Right from the outset, the corn market was largely dominated by peaoe talk and especially so by London sssertlons that Austria- had made repeated advances to President Wilson. Many It. Aers continued also to act on bearish Interferencea from the president's letter referring to the Interna tlonal outlook for 1918. Sharp attention was given likewise to all news touching disturbances In Germany. Attempts to rally the market proved to be of little use, owing a good deal to the fact that rising tem peratures prevailed throughout the corn bolt, and that no return-to abnormal low levels was now In sight. Liberal country offerings had much to do with weakness of oats. Besides, export de mand was lacking both trom the east and gulf. . Optimism regarding peace chances neipea to lift provisions. Purchasing assumed to be for the food administration acted as an ad ditional prop to values. Further govern ment orders soon were expected.

NEW YORK T0CKS Activity and Strength in Initial Dealings, But Trading Grad ually Flattens Out; Early Advances Impaired. New York, Feb. 1. Another demonstra tlon of activity and strength attended to day's Initial dealings In storks, but trading gradually flattened out Early advances of 1 to 1 points In rails and Industrials and f to I points In shippings and specialties were materially Impaired later. The reversal of the last hour was accele rated by a renewal of short selling, based In part on an unexpected rise In rail money to ( per cent, accommodations of that char acter holding over next Monday's holiday. War shares figured prominently In the advance of the forenoon, although peace talk was again the foremost factor. Ralls derived some of their early support from further Improvement In eastern transporta tion conditions. Revival of public Interest was suggested by the bullish enthustssm of the first hour, the turn over of that period aggre gating 40 per cent of the total. Specialties of various grades denoted the obvious In fluence of professional operators, but yes terday sensational movements were lack ing. United States Steel monopolised specula tive attention throughout, but forfetted Its fractional advance, closing at a net decline of 14s points. Other Industrials, also rails and coppers, pursued much the same course, but shippings retained part of their Hub- atanttal gains with miscellaneous Issuos. Males amounted to 960,000 shares. French munolpaia were the heavy features of the bond list. Liberty Issues Improved, (H selling at 98.30 to (8, first 4s at 98.63 to 94.(0, and second 4s at 98.04 to 96 93.
