Chicago Grain and Provisions,
Chicago, Aug. 30. The embargo placed
by the United States Grain corporation on
all grain shipments to Atlantic and gulf
ports had a depressing Influence today on
the corn market and was felt still more
by oats traders. An advance of more than
$1 In live hog prices went unnoticed, and
bear pressure was exerted on corn prices
virtually throughout the session, except
for an early flurry when short covering
sent the corn prices well away from the
low points. Later liquidation, particularly
in the September article, was evident and
prices sagged all along the line. A slight
rally preceded the close. Corn closed
steady, 9ic to 2c net lower, distant de
liveries showing the greatest decline. Sep
tember finished at $1.7714 to $1.77. and
December at $1.36 to $1.36Vj. Oats lost
from lc to l4c, and at the close Septem
ber pork was 76c lower, lard was un
changed to 104 higher and ribs unchanged
to 10c lower.
Cash corn prices wera about lc lower
than yesterday and receipta were larger
than of late.
Oats at the start were Inclined to move
with corn, but later developed independ
ent weakness, the effect of the transpor
tation suspension being greater on oats
than on the ma.lor grain.
Domestlo demand was only of fair
amount.
Provisions were higher with the advance
In hog values, but the bulge brought out
profit-taking sales and, except for lard,
closing prices were lower, pork showing
the greatest decline.

New York, Aug. 30. All New

Bullish Sentiment Hits
Stock Market During Week
New York, Aug. 20. Thla week's stock
market was again guided to an extraor
dinary extent by the trend of developments
in the field of labor and tha further ex
tension of the living cost movement.
Trading was little mors than general In
comparison with the high pressure main
tained during the midsummer, but the
net result while somewhat confusing dis
closed numerous substantial advances.
Higher prlca averages wera effected In
the final days of the week on the firmer
stand taken by the railroad administration
In tha matter of the Paclflo coast strike
situation and the dismissal ol oil land
cases long pending against the Southern
Paclflo company.
The latter decision had the effect of
booming oil shares, as well as Southern
Pacific stock and the Issues of minor
railroads traversing oil bearing territories,
extreme gains of 3 to 13 points being reg
istered. Rails In general manifested further re
straint, however, and leading Industrials
also reflected the unsettlement In labor
circles, although a few pooled or closely
held Issues made sensational gains.
International condft'ons as expressed In
terms of foreign exchange were better for
a time on the rally In Sterling exchange
but London rates subsequently reacted,
while Italian remittances fell to a new
point of depreciation.

Drive Against High Cost of
Living Affects Trading
Chicago, Aug. 30. Grain and provision
prices on the board of trade through the
week were subjected to several depressing
circumstances which were reflected in
marked declines from prevailing figures a
week ago. The fight, national, state and
individual against the high cost of living
was a constant factor on the bear side.
Early In the week holders of large stocks
of grain put them on the market with a
resulting sharp decline which was In part
offset the next day by a renewed demand.
About the middle of the seven-day pe
riod live hog prices fell off sharply, the
fight against excessive charges and a be
lief that there was no outlet awaiting large
shipments forcing the on-the-hoof decline.
The drop In live hogs caused an Immediate
decline in grain and provision prices, corn
losing nearly 6 cents in three days.
While the bearish conditions and the
low live hog prices continued the end of
the week saw an advance In corn, oats
and meat products for future delivery,
shorts having taken fright and rushing to
lover forcing prices up in proportion to
their desire to accumulate supplies. Com
pared with a week ago. however, all prices
showed a distinct decrease, corn being
3c to 6c net lower; oats 114c to 214c
down and provisions showing a decline of
from $1.35 to $3.45, pork and ribs leading
in the decline.
Through the week trading was not In
great volume. The cash corn market
showed little of the buoyancy of the dis
tant deliveries and followed more steadily
the downward trend.
Oats traveled in close sympathy with
corn, affected by similar factors, but fluc
tuating within narrower limits.
Provisions held generally steadier than
grains until they faced the slump In live
hog prices when they sank rapidly, shorts
seeking to cover at the end of the week,
lifted prices from the extreme low points.

Mr. Don E. DeBow.
522 Paxton Block,
Omaha, Neb.
Dear Sir:
I have just returned from Mont
gomery County, Kansas, where I
went at the request of several in
vestors in the George C. Eselin tract
of land in the Wayside Pool.
I have had consiaeraDie exper
the oil fields of West Vir
ginia and Ohio, having been in the
business when arming was aone Dy
oxen power.
I found, after traveling over the
field, making about 150 miles, that
the structure in this part of Kansas
is very similar to the Pennsylvania
formation, but more interesting to
investors I found a producing well
which has been running 22 years
within 200 feet north of the Eselin
tract and producing wells east, west
and south of the tract all within
one-half mile. In all, in traveling
over the vicinity, I saw 66 produc
ing wells and not one gasser nor one
dry hole.
I went down to Kansas, represent
ing certain investors and prospective
buyers and not in the interests of
any propaganda. I found the situa
tion much better than I expected
and much better than as represented
in the printed Prospectus sent out
by Mr. Eselin.
Yours truly,

Mayor Smith announced yesterday
that the municipal store in the Audi
torium will be reopened Tuesday
night, when he expects to have the
following stocks on hand: 500 cases
of canned roast beef, 500 cases of
corned beef. 7.500 cans of corn and
the same quantity of canned peas
and tomatoes; 5,000 pounds of dried
peaches, 9,000 cartons of raisins and
10,000 bars of soap. A limit of 12
cans of each of the varieties of
canned goods will be observed.
Whether this announcement is
subject to any further revision, is
a matter which only an occult mind
could determine, because of the con
flicting announcements which have
been given from the mayor's office.
During the early part of the week
the public was led to believe that
the Auditorium store would be re
opened on Thursday night. Then
it was announced that the date was
postponed, and that was followed
by a statement ' that the municipal
stores would be closed for the sea
son. Yesterday the mayor announced
that the Auditorium will be open
next Tuesday evening.
Just what the announcement will
be next Monday is a secret which
only the future can unfold.
