Financial Chicago Tribune-Omaha Bee Leased Hire. New York, July 31. Today's deal ings in the stock market were direct ed by the imminence of the Inter state Commerce commission's deci sion on railroad freight and passen ger rates. News that this would probably be made public before the new business week began, stimulat ed short covering of industrial shares and promoted a little buying of the rails for the long account. There was real haste displayed in the purchase for retirement of short contracts, however, and the market was unusually dull. Industrial items of interest to the street were con tained in the annual statement of the Virginia-Carolina Chemical Co., and in the Studebaker Carporition's statement for the June quarter. As the former company's year ends May 31, the balance of earnings, equal to more than $20 per share of common stock, brought some reflec tion of activities in the early part of 1920. The Studebaker earnings, less han In the first quarter, were atfected by the switchmen's strike, which, according to the president reduced sales In April about 20 per cent. As time passes It la likely that the income accounts of many Indus trial companies will record the effect of difficult operating and shipping conditions when strikes and railroad congestion wera at their worst The bank statement showed compara tively little change at the- week-end. The Federal Reserve bank's figures noted that member institutions had reduced discounts of paper secured by government bonds to the extent of $11,000,000, but more than offset this through an expansion of com mercial paper borrowings of $12,000,000. However, the bank contracted Its pur chases of bills In the open market by nearly $6,000,000, and there was a net de oUne of about $4,800,000 In aggregate bill holdings. Member banks again drew town their reserves st the central Institution, the decline In thlB Item being $3,300,000, and the deficit of clearing house bank re serves was Increased $1,800,000. This movement was contrary to soma expecta tions, as It had been believed the banks would take measures to overcome the (4,276,000 deficit of the preceding week. Stock market liquidation of "the last week was reflected in a reduction of $20,600,000 of loans at the clearing house banks. De mand deposits increased $9,586,000. The reserve banks ratio of casn to uaomiies was 40.4 per cent, against 40.2 per cent the week before. Sterling and continental rates, lor tne most part, were steady and Inclined, to firmness, indicating a little short cover ing. The Polish situation had evidently assumed fresh gravity over night as banks which usually are in positlorl to quote Polish rates were out of the market, 'ihe rnnf lletlnir rennrtR of military operations on the Polish-Russian front, in the face of armistice reports, kept tne central Euro pean exchanges In an unsteady position at all times, declines becoming pronounced as the week advanced.

Cash wheat dropped 16 to 28c in the var ious markets, Chicago being off 18 19c and sopthwestern markets' 16 28c, Kansas City leading. Minne apolis dropped 20c. Cash futures here were off 11 1-2 to 12c with De cember down to $2.11, while cash wheat was $2.31 for No. 1 red and hard winter. Corn broke to new levels for the deferred futures and closed 2 3-4 ' to 6 l-4c lower with July leading. Oats were off 9c for July while deferred futures lost only 3-4 to 1 l-4c. Rye finished with losses of 2 to 4 l-4c and barley 3-4 to 2 l-2c. It was a day of liquidation from start to finish with several small rallies at times, but they were fol lowed by a rapid shading of values. Unless the country' stops selling wheat, lower prices seem inevitable, as the grain trade views it, and with lower prices for wheat, corn, oats and rye, are expected to follow. Week of Liquidation. It has been a week ot liquidation despite efforts on the part of the bull Interests to prevent declines. Wheat is off 42 c to 46 o compared" with a week ago. Corn 17c to 21c, oats tc to 19c, rye 18o to 28c, barley 12o, pork $1.62 to $2.02, lard 67c to 85c Mid short ribs 76o to 82c as compared with a week ago. These drastic declines have created a feel ing of uneasiness and buyers have backed away. Flour prices have dropped 60c today and are off $1.50 per barrel on spring wheat flours In practically two weeks. Car lots of spring patents are 1 1 1 ft 5 to $13.25 and the retail price on stannara oranus iv $14. Soft winters are selling at $10 to $11.60 and hard winters at $11 to $12 per barrel In car lots. Foreigners were practically out of the wheat market and it was a buyer's market nearly all day, as they. dictated prices. The cash wheat markets of the west were demoralized, with Chicago 1517c lower, closing at the bottom with No. 1 hard or red winter $2.31. Bids to arrive dropped 15c with $2.19 bid for No. X red or hard. August shipment, track Chicago. St. Louis declined 16 19c, Omaha 17 & 18c, Kansas City 18 28c and Minneapolis 20c Local receipts 213 cars. Bearish Sentiment In Corn. Sentiment In corn was more bearish than recently, the rains removing appre hension of damage to the crop, although they were mainly In the shape of scat tered thunder showers, and there were miny sections that failed to receive motstare. Cash prices were 45c lower with No. 1 and No. 2 mixed and white $1.40 at the last and yellow at $1.41. Re ceipts 121 cars. Shipping sales 25,000 bushel?. . , Scattered longs in July oats started to liquidate In a market almost bare of support and prices dropped rapidly, at the close, being only o over the September, against 9c the previous day. Sample values were 26o lower with shipping sales 110,000 bushels. After the close the Quaker Oats Co. paid 4o over July for No. 2 white and 2c over for heavy No. 3 white in the sample masket. Hedging sales in volume developed In rye and September declined sharply, support being lacking. There was less pressure than expected in the July, however, and it held relatively firm. Export demand was slow with no sales reported. No. 2 on track sold at $1.89. Receipts. 12 cars. Barley offerings were not large and sales showed no change in price. Track lots brought 90 95c with no choice grain offered. Receipts, 10 cars. Pit Notes. Jackson Bros. & Co. announce the re turn of Howard B. Jackson, senior part ner of the firm. Mr. Jackson served as vice-president of the United States Grain corporation for the last three years. Wil liam J. Farrell, chief grain Inspector, and Charles P. Squire, manager of the corporation for the last three years, are now associated with the cash grain de partment of the reorsanlzed firm. Winnipeg wires: "Wheat coming along; moderately well. Many bad reports on oats and flax being received from dis tricts that a week ago reported glowing conditions, particularly southeastern Sas katchewan. Moose Jaw district and many points in Manitoba claiming that oats have aot sufficient moisture. Our mar ket sold out and trade heavily short fu ture contracts. Armour & Co., In their weekly trade review, in part, say conditions in the packing Industry this week were not sat isfactory. Demand In every branch of the meat trade, with the exception of cured prod ucts, was unusually light. Live prices were consequently affected. The export situation still is In process of develop ment. An unsettled provision market seems to have restrained prospective In quiries. Collections were satisfactory. Trend of Stock Market In Last Week Was Downward New York, July 31. The trend of the stock market this week was decidedly downward. A number cf prominent Is sues In the Industrial division recorded minimum quotations of the year, while United States Steel fell to Its lowest price In almost two years. Declines were also accompanied by a noticeable Increase of offerings, much of which probably resulted from involuntary liquidation of speculative commitments, while bearish pressure helped to swell the larger dealings. Credit conditions were again the chief drawback, the money market remaining very stringent except for call loans. These were comparatively easy and in liberal supply at an average rate of 8 per cent. j.no reaction in securities coincides witn similar movements in various commodi ties and an extension of the reversal In many lines of manufacture, especially tex tiles, leather, rubbers and kindred staples. Almost the only cheerful development was furnished by the more encouraging crop outlook. Unsettled conditions abroad were again clearly reflected In the market for inter national remittances. Rates on the prin cipal foreign centers continued to weaken as the trend of events In central and east ern Europe assumed more complicated aspects. CHICAGO CLOSING PRICES. By Updike Gmin Co., Art.

Severe slashing of grain and provision prices this week has resulted to a considerable degree from tight money conditions. Compared with a week ago, wheat quotations this morniuir were down 26 37c a bushel, corn was off 14l6c, oats ,613c, and provisions 62c$1.60. Disturbing financial and Industrial de velopments, notably indications ot strain In the automobile business, had such a bearish effect on grain that the week started with an immediate cut of 8c in the value of wheat. Next day the wheat market suffered a nearly complete col lapse accompanied by evidence of dis tress selling largely due to heavy mar gin calls. Then export buying gave tem porary relief, but talk of borrowers' dif ficulty in obtaining money became again a depressing Influence and with a set back In folgn exchange, did much to bring about a radical rallying of foreign demand. Chief among other bearish fac tors were reports that contrary to re cent widespread belief no great impair ment of the spring wheat crop this sea son would result from black rust. Despite excessive dry weathes in Illi nois, Missouri and Iowa, the corn and oats market gave way with wheat, though to a less sensational extent. Comparative steadiness of provisions was due. mainly to support from packers. Culbertson Boy Scalped , When Run Over by Wagon McCook, Neb., July 31. (Spe cial.)
