LOST FIVE CENTS.
Wheat Takes a Tumble In New
York

New York, Aug. H.-Wheat lost 5
cents a bushel today and the lowest
point was about ten points under the
top notch for the season. There were
not enough influential bulls left in the
market to make a respectable fight
against the. declining tendency. They
have nearly all become interested in
corn, which everybody in the trade has
been educated to believe is on the eve
of a boom. Consequently when Liver
pool opened away off this morning and
followed 1t up with further declines on
later cables, the local market simply
went to pieces. 1t looked for a time
as if the bottom had dropped out, 50
rapidly did prices slide down hill in
response to the rain of selling orders
with which the brokers bombarded the
market. There was practically no sup
port other than that afforded by a lit
tie buying against puts. The December
option settled to 50 cents on first sales
which was sheer break of 4 cents a
busheI from last night. Then it Skin
mished around for a time, buffeted up
and down by conflicting orders. but
soon settled into a steady decline,
which finally landed it half an hour

The press of Bolivia Is much excite

The press of Bolivia Is much excited
over the reports that Peru is making
formidab BILE efforts in the ways Of arm
ing' and urges the Bolivian Govern
ment to bestir itself and get ready
for possible war; This seems to be
an unnecessary expense at this time.
These South American wars do not
call for the formalities that are COM
mon in European contests. If Peru Is
bent on war with Bolivia 1t can go
ahead and hold its war and not bother
Bolivia with the project, especially If
Bolivia doesn't happen to feel like in
dulging in war now. Bolivia need
not know anything about it If the press
will only keep quiet until the war is all
over and not even then, unless it choos-
es to go to the trouble to ascertain the
details. Peru could enjoy it's war for
the customary period of about week,
and then wait until Bolivia Is given a
chance at its leisure to hold war to
even things up. The mere detail of
'arming for the Fray is superfluous,
for it isn't that kind Of fray. No
body is ever injured in these wars,
which are like our national holidays,
only more frequent.
