Chicago Grain
By CHARLES D. MICHAELS.
Chicago Tribune-Omaha Be Leased Wire.
Chicago, Aug. 17. Final prices in
grain markets were around extreme
low points. Late in the session a
prominent commission concern af
filiated with eastern interests became
a heavy seller of December wheat
and this led to general liquidation and
lowest price levels of the day.
Corn and oats again recorded new
low points for the season. The un
favorable situation existing in indus
trial circles is having a depressing
effect on the local trade and longs
in general are showing an increased
tf'ire 1 litluidate their holdings,
while the bearish element is operat
ing more extensively on all bulges.
Resting spots for wheat were 2li
cY lower; corn was off HUc and
oats Jc lower. Rye declined IU
He Provisions recovered a good
part of the early losses, but at the
finish showed a decline of 25c on
pork. 2535c on lard and 2230c
on rtbs. Wheat premiums were lit
tle changed, though showing firm
ness. Corn basis also ruled firm and
oats were y,giyz higher, relatively
on No. 2 whites.
Wheat Prices Drop.
Wheat prices continued to pursue a
downward course. Mors confidence wss
placed in the selling side by local bears
nA.her. l?r'd with mor freedom.
Additional liquidation whs In evidence,
long generally reducing their lines. There
was fairly good buying of th September
rf.?7 J"1 ,he break b " concern
Identified with eastern Interest! and this
served to hold the decline in check.
Sale of 310,000 bushels were made over
night locally for export account and ves
sel room was chartered for 270,000 bushels
at 2 cents to Buffalo, which showed ht
terment of Kc over the recent late. Thu
estimate today was placed at 2J5 ears.
Corn also exhibited an easl-jr undertone
and values established new low points on
the crop. Stop loss selling was noted in
the earliest part of the aesslon, while
profit taking by shorts later In the day
served to rally prices moderately. Volume
of business transacted was good, with
commission houses fairly active on either
side. Farmers continue to sell com n
arrive freely and the present movement Is
large. Estimated receipt were' for 428
cars.
Oata lower.
Oat were lower on renewed liauldatlon
and moderate hedging pressure. ehorts
aispiayea a tendency to cover on tue
break, which became more noticeable when
wheat firmed.. Country offerings of oat
continue to be offered lightly. Farmer
in the country, according to many re
ports, have stopped selling their grain be
cause of the poor price they are getting
for It. Overnight shipping sales cf oats
were 80,000 bushels. . Receipts for today
estimated at 150 cars.
Cash rye closed 1 cent lower. No. 2
sold at $1.07V1.074. There were 15,000

cars.
Cash barley unchanged but firm. Malt
ing sales ranged between 66 66c. Re
ceipts, four cars.
Fit Note.
Country offerings of all grains Generally
were reported moderate to light, wheat
and oata acceptance being small a a
rule.
A New York message said: "There
Is a rumor here that plans for giving
credit to Germany will be announced
about the first of September. It is said
there Is a possibility that a lot of Ger
man property held by the alien property
department may be released. It Is esti
mated tms department noias iguu.uuu.uuv
to $1,000,000,000 of such property and
there la a possibility that the credit plan
may be connected In aom way with
this."
Armour was credited with buying short
corn and oats today and some buying of
wheat waa credited to the same Interest.
Other short wer fair buyer and there
was a little better investment buying of
oata on the expectation of small receipts
and a better shipping demand.
Eastern Interests were credited with
buying September and selling December
wheat moderately at Hie difference.
There was some profit taking by local
traders who spread the same way some
time ago.
The grain trade was considerably In
fluenced by the estimate that 6,700,000
people are out of employment In this
country at the present time. This report
In conjunction with th adverse devel
opments In the stock market, tended to
change sentiment to some extent In wheat
and there were more of the local pit
traders who were Inclined to keep off the
buying side, being of the opinion they
would receive but little outside help.
Contrary to expectation, cash wheat
prices at Minneapolis are holding excep
tionally under the much larger receipts.
A wire to Thomson-McKlnnon said that
the cash demand waa strong and buying
of - good character, witi! premiums un
changed to 6 cents up.
Continued wet weather may check the
movement of corn and spring wheat to
some extent, according to receiver. Th
receipt of oats here showed a marked
drop the past two daya.

By ALEXANDER DANA NOYES.
Chicago Tribune-Omaha Bee Leased Wire.
New York, Aug. 17. Today's
markets illustrated the uncertain
drift of things familiar to this time
of year and the absence of any uni
form trend. On the stock exchange,
for instance, the day ended with
prices higher than at Tuesday's clos
ing, but this was only after a series
of alternate declines and recoveries.
In the foreign exchange market,
rates on London and western Euro
pean points declined while German
marks were regaining the greater
part of their recent loss.
Today's time money market was
easier. During the day's early weak
ness on the stock exchange several
industrial shares went below the
year's previous low prices; the sub
sequent recovery was merely the
result of repurchases by the pro
fessional speculators. Railway stocks
were as a rule almost motionless,
some of them hardly varying a
fraction during the day.
Decrease In Car Loadings.
Aside from the senate committee's fa
vorable report of the funding bill, the
only news affecting that branch of tha
market was a statement on "car loadings"
on all the country's railroads in the open
ing week of August, showing the first de
crease of any week since June. The move
ment usually decreases at this time of
year, however, when the traditional "first
rush of grain to market" after the winter
wheat harvest has spent its force.
The day's recovery in German exchange
to 1.20 cents as compared with Tues
day's closing rate of 1.12 and the week's
low rate of 1.06 was not explained, ex
cept by conjecture.
Neither the price of steel noi the at
titude of steel consumers has dpullcated
the Iron market's movement. The Iron
Age reports that buyers of steel ("do not
believe that the low point has been
reached."

By E. C. SNYDER.
Washington Correspondent Omaha Bee.
Washington, Aug. 17. (Special 1
Telegram.) J. C. Suttie and Ne!s ;
Parsons, representing the Omaha
Hay exchange, were witnesses to-1
day at the hearing before the In- '
testate Commerce commission on
freight rates. They, and other wit-
nesses from Kansas City, set forth
to the commission the vast amount j
of hay that will go to waste unless j
concessions and reductions in rail- j
road rates are made.
Attorneys for the railroads vigor
ously continued their fight against
the proposed reductions and during
the testimony of Mr. Suttie the pro
ceedings were marked with clashes
between them and counsel for the
hay and grain interests. Railroad
attorneys succeeded in preventing
Mr. Suttie from putting into the
record considerable data favorable
to the hay producers. He succeed
ed, however, in introducing evidence
strongly backing up the plea of the
hay men for lower rates.
Receipts Show Decrease.
Mr. Suttie, who was on the witness
stand for nearly an hour, introduced
exhibits showing a heavy decrease in
receipts on the Omaha market in
the past year and showed the actual
loss on various cars handled in that
city.
The railroad attorneys in cross
examination of Mr. Suttie asked the
cause of light shipments on Idaho
emergency rates, udge Reed, coun
sel for the hay interests, objected
and the question was not permitted
to be answered, evidently to the dis
appointment of Mr. Suttie who ap
parently was primed to give an ef
fective answer.
At the conclusion of Mr. Sutties'
testimony Mr. Parsons was called
to the stand and corroborated the
statements made by the counsel for
the Omaha exchange. Mr. Parsons
was asked by Commissioner Potter
why, if the hay was in Idaho, Wyo
ming and Montana and was needed
in llinois, Michigan and Wisconsin,
they did not buy it, inasmuch as Mr.
Suttie had stated that the Union
Pacific railroad had wanted to get
the shippers and consumers together.
Parsons Gets Laugh. "
Mr. Parsons' answer created con
siderable mirth. He stated that the
consumers had "expected to buy the
hay cheap and, lo and behold! the
shippers raised the price so that the
consumers could not afford to buy
it."
It may be several days before the
hearings are closed, but it is expected
the Interstate Commerce commission
will give a prompt decision when the
taking of testimony is concluded in
order that the present crops of hay
and grain may be prepared for move
ment to eastern markets.
Thorne Brown of the Nebraska
Railway commission will probably
close the hearing so far as Nebraska
grain and hay producers are con
cerned. New York Cotton.
New Tork, Aug. 17. At the opening
of the cotton market today there was
moderate buying of new crop month on
