Cereal Crosses Dollar Line,

CHICAGO, July S1.-Contrary to
all previous experience, wheat prices
in the final dealings here were being
driven down, not up, by prospects
that the war would spread After a
rise of 9 cents bushel, values shrunk
as much as cents in 80 minutes,
largely on account of bold assertions
that the bulk of the surplus crop Of
the United States, instead of being
rushed to Europe because Of wide
spread needs due to war, might be
held in this country as a result of
general war disrupting all ocean
trade.
Leading exporters here did not hes
itate to be quoted by name in declar-
ing that export business in wheat
from the United States already hat
been paralyzed.
Traders Suddenly Cautious.
To a lesser degree the same state
ment applied, for the time being a
! least, to all dealings in wheat, espe
cially transactions of speculative
character. One of the consequence
was the action Of prominent firms o,
the board of trade in giving their pi
representatives orders to take fur
, lough."
Business which three days ago wa
counted in millions of bushels dwin
died at times to almost the vanishin
point. Hazard of being whipsawe
out of fortune by the chance of
movement proved too much even fo
the most seasoned traders and tn
principal efforts seemed to be direct
ed more to keeping would-be inves
ors out of the market than towar
the opposite course.
