POSTPONED
 ON CONSTITUTION

Berlin, February 17.-Chancellor Von Bethmann-Hollweg today requested a postponement of the discussion of the constitution proposed for AlsaceLorraine, in order to give the government oppor- tunity to consider the amendments adopt ed by the committee of the reichstag.
 This is a direct outcome of the differ ences between the bundesrath and the reichstag as to the conditions under which the new state shall enter the German empire, and the move the chancellor Is thought to be preliminary to the with drawal of the govci hment's proposal of political equality for Lorraine.
 As drawn by the government and adopted by the bundesrath this consti- tntion gave the new state no representa- tion in the bundesrath. The committee of the reichstag, however, adopted an amendment permitting Lorraine to enter the empire full f1edged federal state. In direct opposition to the wishes Of the government the clerical element of the committee forced through another amendment striking out the clause which gave the Emperor executive authority and constitutional provision for the regent practically free of imperial control and influence. It was anticipated the govern ment would not accept these modifica- tions of it's plan.

 The market opened today ten points down, but the feeling frightened some what on informa,Ion from the capital that the bill would be smothered in committee It is said the bill of lad ing matter would again be precipita ted because. 1t is asserted. banks will not honor drafts drawn against bills of ladng unless the cotton which the bills call for Is 'hedged" in the future mar ket. thus insuring loss.

WHEAT OPTIONS
 STILL CHEAPER Low Record Caused By the
 Kansas Rains BIG SHORT SELLING Sharp Advance When News Came That Grain Clause of Scott
 Bill Had Been
 Omitted

Chicago, February 17.-A fresh record for the season was made today in the price of wheat. Every option sold cheap years crop.
 Heavy general rains effectually break ing the drought in Kansas, Texas and Oklahoma formed the main reason why. Closing figures were 11sc to 111G1ssc under last night. In corn the outcome was net loss of 1s@14c to Ac. Oats finished un- changed to a shade off and provisions at 21a to 121ac advance.
 The wheat market had one sharp ad- vance, due to news from Washington that the grain clause of the Scott anti-option bill had been left out. Talk of export sales at Baltimore aided the rise, but the offerings of wheat here following the bulge were much larger than the pit could readily digest. Short selling on big scale by leading speculator proved espe- oially disconcerting to believers in higher pr .ees for the July delivery. His opera tions were most In evidence during the latter half of the day. Earlier in the session the bulls had been discouraged by Liverpool traders apparently ignoring tine RusSO-ChineSe war rumOrS ana payln3 more attention to increased shipments from the Argentine. Then, too, official figures from Washington. showing that last years wheat crop was 325,000,0o0, but greater than the average for the five years preceding, counting mischievously against values. Toward the end the mar kct showed no recuperative power to speak of and the final tone was decidedly nervous. May ranged from 901a@sOasc to e21sc. closing 11sc net lower at soA@90asc.
 Lack of elevator room and poor cash demand for corn made that cereal weak, notwithstanding wet weather interfer- ence with farmers marketings. May fiuctuated between 4s%c and 49Ac, with the close 1a@Ac down. at 4s&c. Cash corr was dull. No. 2 yellow finished at 47hG4Sc.
 Oats were neglected. There was some filmness at one time with wheat, but the market afterward settled back when other grain declined. May varied from 3liAG31sac to 317sc, closing just the same as 24 hours previous, 315sc.
 Offerings were none too plentiful Tn provisions. tIn consequence work wound up with final gain of 56121ac, lard dearer by 2h@5c, and ribs at 5Q71hc to 7Hc added cost.

COTTON MARKET IS VERY IRREGULAR Caused By Conflicting Re-
 ports From Senate ANTI-FUTURES BILL Was Not Feared So Must Itself But Conflicting Reports About It
 Caused Break-Southern
 Spots Are Lower

New York, February 17.-Conflicting re- ports regarding the chances of the anti futures bill in the Senate caused much irregularity in the cotton market during tcday's trading, but generally speaking the undertone was steadier and prices closed steady at a net advance of to 10 points. The opening was steady at an ad- vance of to points in response to bet ter cables than expected and on re- newal of yesterdays buying movement. Early reports indicating that the Scott bill probably would fall to pass the Sen ate committee seemed to help the mar ket. and while there was some irregulari- ty during the morning prices gradually worked up to a net gain. of about 12 to IS points. This carried the price of May deliveries up to 14.02c, or 32 points above the low level of yesterday morning, when the upward movement was checked by the realizing of recent buyers for reaction. Following Washington advices indicating the Scott bill had been reported by the committee, although with amendments and without recommendations. offerings became heavier and there was sharp break, carrying prices back to practically the close of last night. This break prob oiolv reflected nervousness and apprehen- sicns concerning the influence of conflict ing reports as to the chances of the bill before 1t could be finally disposed of rather than any general fear of it &C., tually becoming law for selling did not become aggressive and the market in the late trading rallied several points from the lowest under renewed covering with the close generally to 10 points higher on the old crop months. The into-sight figures proved a little heavier than exs Jected and there was a comparatively small loss of stock at the counted in- terior towns, but spinners' takings for the week made fairly liberal showing and southern spot advices continued generally bullish as to conditions in the interior.
 The southern spot markets as officially reported early were Mc lower to 1sc high CT. generally unchanged to 1sc higher.
