. A i -I THE BEC-OMAHA, SATURDAY, AUGUST 21, 1920. 11 XT' HAMBURG AGAIN (ASSUMES BEFORE WAR APPEARANCE Twefity-Two Ships Touch In One Day, the Largest Num ber Since Early Days of War. St" " -! - f Hamburg, Aug. 20. In one day last week 22 steamers passed Cux haven on the way- to Hamburg or to enter the Kiel canal. This was the largest number of ships to come into' the EJbejn 24 hours since the ,early days of the war,' and the event was, hailed with intense satisfaction here as a sign of Letter times. , Five years ago it was a dull day when only a score of vessels ar rived. The Hamburg-Amerii an line alone usually had from Zi to JU big ships in port and the harbor was so crowded with shipping thsf the problem of dockij.g often became , acute. Under Foreign Colors. In those days few flags other than shipping companies or au ne prin cioal nations have set uo offices here and the formerly powertui oer man lines, having. lost their ships, ' are actiflg now only as agents. ' American.- British, Japanese, French, Italian, Spanish. Dutch and Brazilian companies display their advertisements in the shipping papers. Advertisements of German concerns are so few that one must search for them. Jhere is some 'life,' again in the harbor but the ships 'are nearly all fojeign. One passes long -ows of splendidly equipped docks and varehOuses.'once a hive of industry hut now empty and still. And in , the absence of th; many, ships that used .to make Hamburg v thriving commercial center, trade has died wav and the treat market pla'ces on thewaterfront ere practically de serted. Before the war Hamburg had become one if Europe s chief coffee markets. Now. only a few sacks of that staple find their way here. , - While. Hamburg was losing its slory as a port, -death was taking. a 1, heavy toll of the so-called "royal heads" of the biji German compsm ) ies, includinp Albert Ballin, presi dent of the Hamburg-American line and the brothers, Adolph and Ed ward Woennanh, who guided the af fairs of the great Woermann Indian "and' African lines. -."Africa House," the scene of their labors, was the nerve center of Germany's vast colonial trade. It stands today a sileut memorial of German imperiai- Vsm. It' is realized that Hamburg faces ft: long up-hilt struggle to regain its prewar, prestige. A well-known banker told the correspondent he believed Hamburg had irretrievably lost jts financial power and would nevrr. again enjoy ine lnaepcnueui ' vposifioi it had. in the past. , I "Germany," he'- said, 'Is more closely united today .than'. ever. fee-, ffore. "This means that Hamburg must- work not only '.for itself but J for all Germany as Weft, ' Uirri.1. the country as a , whole, begins to.' get (back, on itsjeet, Hamburg's prqiress toward recovery must be slow:" . . J At the moment, unemployment Is ta gratia problem here. Between pO.OiK) and 35.00ft workers ire . mi semployed and Hamburg, is. spending more than 1,000.000 marks a week ;n Atflations to them.

An oversold condition of all grains, especially corn, and with a sold-ot situation in oats made a gocd foundation for a sharp advance iri-values. Buying by the strongest houses tbok the slack out of the markets early, and the close was at the top, with corn up 4c tor September ana i i-oc to 1 1-Zc were Changed to 3-4c lower, and fye 1 l-2c to 2 l-2c, higher, while barley gained l-4c to 1 l-2c.

"A break of. 3c in wheat futures was made early, and all rcgj'ned on December,. while March ' weakened and closed within 1 l-4c of Decem ber., It was claimed by the seaboard lliatr England and France were ou,t of the market as buyers, yet com mission" houses representing the sea board were liberal buyers of Decem ber and cash houses sold December and bought March at 1 l-2c differ ence. Hedging business was lessened . by the lighter receipts and in the , local rash market ther was weak and lower prices, while country offering were light. Pri mary receipt were 1,386,000 bushels agaiQst 1,651,000 bushels a week ago and 2,861,000 bushel last year.. Th week' exports were 8,989,998 bushel against 8,026,000 buasiel last year. , Bears Release Corn. A heavily oversold condition was dis closed In the corn market. Bear war very confident of their position and sold freely early, forcing prices off 114 03c from the previous day's close, September at the Inside being $1.38 or 11c under the high of Wednesday. Soaking rains in parts of Illinois, Iowa, Kansss and Ne braska were the bearish Influsnce, the weather map making the showing In weeks. Some ttoploss orders were uncovered on the way down and forVawhlle it looked as though still lower prices were to pre vail. Buying of oat was of a much bet ter class than the sailing throughout the day. Lewis took September and December freely, and strong commission houses were buyers as they have beei for several days. At one time September went to a fractional premium over December, but closed about the same price. Foreign Sale. Late Thursday 100,000 bushels of 38 pound No. 1 white oats were sold to New York exporter and the seaboard reported 100, 000 bushels sold to Holland and 160.000 bushel to Cuba.

The reduc tion of the short interest in indus trial ' stocks today made extensive headway, the recovery front yester day being extended into gaiis of 2 to more than 5 points. Railroad' is sues profited both from the" recov ery in other parts of the list and from the better feeling induced by recent decisions of state pubtic serv ice commissions on the question ?i higher rates.. It. was evident in market comment also, that banking opinion anent tne credit situation had something-to do with. the gen eral recovery, for it brought a re lief to tension over to the crop ont- look to learn of competent opinion which felt that the banks would-be able" to handle autumn demaflds without overstrain. ' Ca4t"1oan money lent at 7 per cent throughout the psrrowing pei Traduigin stocks was more active than in 'earlier days of the week, without., however, uncovering leally broad demand for' any group of Issues. Sugar stocks were prom inent in the rally, as were petroleum, rubber and steel shares. Big Loan Made. The closing of subscription books for $25,000,000 7 per cent. 10-year collateral tniKt hnnds of the New York Central sys tem, occurred shortly after they were formally opened, indicating a large volume of advance appropriations. A 7 per cent rpisaup. taken, at bar. even though -the security wss of the Quality the New Torn Central affords, means a ratner sturdy in vestment demand at this time when 7tt and 8" per cent returns had become th vocue for excellent oarer. The scale 1 es pecially Interesting as it come on the eve of an offering of probably $100,000,000 French government, nonos wnose maiumy mav be fixed at 15 years. Some of the in vestment banker of sound Judgment ar wont, however, to class first grads raiiroao Rocurities in one clssa and Industrial and foreign government Igsues ln another for tne sake or picturing tneir relative menu ln the eye of the investment and credit market. Settle Outside Influence. The impression prevails that France will be able to arrange the refunding on terms permitting a.jeturn to buyers of 8 per cent, wtth a redemption feature of a favorable character, providing . premiums for bondholder whose number are drawn fronvyear to year. The new offering 1 looked for eafTy next week. The market had Httle outside news to direct them today. The Russian retreat had been made sufficiently clear yesterday, removing whatever influence It ha for speculation, which was little considering that the entire Polish-Russian contest had not been a seriousfactor at any time in market calculations.- In looking for re flection of broad underlying Influence -of Import to the people one mighty. fop. the moment at least, examine the cotton market instead of atocks. Today's decline, added to the depression of recent sessions saw the October option 10 cents per pound, or $50 a hale lower than the maximum price of 37?e reached Just four, months ago. Clearly significant factors are , at work in this stanle and they may lie found in tho export field and in domestic spinning center, or the depressing force may be traced further alonjf Into, the re tall market for textiles. - ' Exports Show Slump. - Exports In th current month are far neiuw tne totnl in tho corresponding peno.t !ast year, and it looks as though the new cro'. will be considerably larger than the lat-st of the estimates put It. Wlioat rrnne down at toe opening of business at Chicago today, falling 264c, but a str.mi; recovery later wiped out nearly all the decline. Foreign exchange rallied further, ster 'Ing rising 144c to $3.69 for sight drat. For the. first time since the treasury fixed on orbltrary price of 99ic for ltssllver purchases, in May, the market went above this level today, being carried along by a sharp rise of tho open jnarkt quota tion A ga'n of 214c established ot.i quotations at. $1.01 per ounce. 8 a ,u rain, Omaha, New York Quotations Range cf prices of the leading" stock furnished hy Logan & Bryan, Petera Trust bulldlnff . .
