DROP IN WHEAT PRICES
Follows, tho Defamation OF War by
England.

Chicago, Aug. 5.-England's actual
entrance into the. war was signalized
today by q drop Of prices in wheat
Opening prices were X to i under
last night. with the market tending
downward.
Within a few minutes the break had
widened to two cents a bushel and
was still in progress. The trade SEEM
ed to take the position that for the
time being the effect of British action
was to diminish the chance of an i'm
mediate export demand. Buyers who
yesterday anticipated quick action in
the way of foreign shipments. were
unloading today.
After the fall in values had reached
2A cents, a reaction began. and the
market rallied more than q cent a
bushel. The nearby options in wheat
were the weakest. Some of the largest
houses in the trade were conspicuous
on the selling side.
The early losses were soon wiped
out and the market rose all around.
September and May options sold a
half cent above the last close.
The temporary break in prices was
accompanied by unconfirmed reports
that the plans Of the British govern
ment to guarantee war risks on wheat
shipments from the United States had
been abandoned.
