SHARP DROP in
WHEAT PRICES
Corn and Oats Also Go to
Lower LevelS-COffee
Again Declines.

The full effect Of the government crop
report of Wednesday was not felt in the
wheat market until yesterday, when, in
the late trading, tired longs began 10 un-
load and there was sharp decline under
a comparatively light demand. The net
drop for the day was 1qlhc, and closing
figures were at the low of the day. Lower
foreign markets, with continued good re-
ceipts at Northwestern points and slack
export demand, aided the bears. and bull
arguments were brushed aside on the
scale down. The break i'm wheat caused
considerable liquidation in corn, with an
Argentine sale and more liberal supplies
in the West as additional factors. The
net result OF the movement was drop OF
&c for the day. oats moved In sympathy
with the other grains, declining l2qS4c net.
Quietness continued i'm the coffee mar
ket; there was a slight early ADVANCE
based on strength in Ravre and Hamburg,
but the demand was not sufficient to hold
the gain, and a renewal of the selling
movement forced prices down to net de-
cline Of to 9 points at the close. one
cause Of the drop probably was a state

WABASH PITTSBURGH
TERMINAL PLAN
Specified Amount To Be Raised Is
$4,000, OO0-To Keep Wheel
iuq and Lake Erie.

The principal holders OF the first mort
gage bonds of the Wabash PITTSBURGH
Terminal Railway Company held pIl-
vate conference yesterday In the offices
Of Samuel Cntermyer. counsel for the
bondholders' committee. The meeting at
which about 100000 Of the $50 236 900 out
standing bonds were represented. was
called for the purpose Of obtaining the
views Of the bondholders on plan for
reorganizing the Wabash PITTSBURGH
Terminal and the Wheeling & Lake Erie
as they are closely affiliated through
ownership OF 81 per cent OF the latter
stock by the former.
Contrary TO the statements OF MI. Tn
termyer before the Pujo money trust
committee that all corporations should
give full publicity to their affairs. the
meeting Yesterday was closed TO the
newspaper representatives. II was
learned, however. that there was a
unanimous opinion on the part OF the
bondholders to proceed Immediately with
plans for the reorganization OF the Ter
minal property. which will involve the
raising OF about 100000 10 pay off re-
ceivers certificates and other prior
claims and TO effect settlement win
the Wabash Railroad. Additional funds
will have to be provided to obtain CON
troll Of the Wheeling & Lake Erie on re-
organization
The 100000 for reorganization pur-
poses also does not include funds that
may be required TO furnish additional
equipment II is estimated that s2.o~V0
will be needed for cars and that sl,CDoVo
will be required for other Improvements.
The reorganization plan contempiates
that the Wabash Pittsburgh Terminal
shall be owned absolutely by the present
first mortgage bondholders, except in so
far a they may decide to invite the sec
ond mortgage bondholders to parucipa-
ton, on condition that they assist in rais-
ing the new money. The plan also In

cent per hour; the wages OF those having
served one yesr or more will be increased
two cents an hour.
Third-ln view of the fact that the para
mount DUTY of the company is to avoid
the killing and manning Of people. and
that 10 accomplish this we must have the
loyal and skilful cooperation of our plat
form men, ii is proposed to offer a spe-
cial reward for such cooperation. The
basis for the proposed plan will be the
money paid during the year 1918 for dam
age claims, and to the extent that in
succeeding years the amount of such
claims may be diminished we shall dis
tribute among the platform men the entire
amount so saved. In proportion TO their
actual hours OF employment during the
year in which the saving was effected.

TRADING ON THE
CONSOLIDATED
Weakness in Canadian Pacific
Depresses Early Trading
Better Tone Later.

Canadian Pacifics extreme weakness
was an important element i'm checking an
advancing tendency i'm the general mar
ket on the Consolidated Stock Exchange.
on transactions totaling $50 shares, that
stock declined more than points. II had
opened on the $3.50 o'clock call at 2l55s.
an overnight decline of 27s points. This
was its high price for the day. The New
York Stock Exchange when ii opened at
10 o'clock agreed to the downward move
ment, its initial quotation for Canadian
Pacific being nag. AS a rule, prices on
the Consolidated opening call reflected
frmness. Then there was an early dip
and a rally, with decided strength de-
veloping for a time In the afternoon, but
the tendency became reactionary toward
the close. Floor opinion was inclined to
construe the currency situation more IA
vorably. This view was helped by the un-
confirmed reports which circulated that
J. J. Hill would be the chairman of the
Federal Reserve Board. The yearly earn
ings exhibit of the Union Pacific also
eXerted a good effect marketwise. Front
taking influenced prices at the higher
levels, so that a number OF the leading
stocks failed to sell as high on the Con-
solidated as they did on the New YORK
Stock Exchange. Steel did not change
hands above 56ss, against 56Ss on the other
board; Reading above 1925. against 1874
and Union Pacific above 1875. against l52.
Business was on a good scale. the sales
totalling $1,000 shares, with commission
houses kept active handling orders
Thirty-eight differeiN stocks were repre-
scented. including American Ice at Hl2
representing the only market for that
stock in Wall Street during the day.

There was less activity in the cotton
market yesterday, but fluctuations were
sufficiently irregular TO give the impress
sion that there was considerable evening
up going on for the next ginning report,
due on Saturday. The. report on lnters,
showing $780, 600 bales to December /, was a
factor which helped carry prices down to
net loss of to points after an open
Ing TO 5 points up on steady cables. In
the late trading. however, Liverpool was
buyer, and this, with covering by shorts,
caused n reaction which advanced prices
10 10 points above the lowest, and the
close was at net l to points gain for the
day. The report on linters was without
direct comparison to the date given, the
nearest berg that obtained up TO January
this year which was about $4,000 bales.
The yield OF linters last year made
record, amounting TO 10000 bales, and IN
sCme of the current commercial crop esti-
mates only 500, 900 bales have been allowed
for this item. This probably accounted FOR
the bearish view taken of the report al
though It is not likely that a difference OF
n few thousand bales OF linters would al
feet the average value OF middling cotton
this season. Southern spot markets were
unchanged. and the local market held
quiet at L. goo for middling upland. NO
