Chicago. Oct. s1.-European readi-
ness in accepting offers at higher prices
had a strengthening effect today on
the wheat market here. Attention con-
tinued to center on the uncertainty
brought about by Turkey in the Euro
pean war situation. Traders were eau :
;ious however. because Of the out
look of a big increase IN the visible
supply total Monday. After opening q
I'D. the market later advanced slightly
higher.
Realizing sales afterward. by spec
ulat,ve holders caused a sharp set
back. Huge primary receipts gave the
bears an advantage. The close was
nervous, at !. cent net decline.
Corn.
Corn sympathized with the frmness
of wheat The start, which showed a
and q to L gain, was followed oy
some additional hardening Of values.
The market later denied TO ease of
with wheat. The close was steady, the
same as last night TO 4 cent lower.
Oats.
Seaboard demand lifted oats. Cash
houses were fair buyers of the De-
ceulber option
Provisions.
Provisions were without much sup
port. Lard in particular seemed dlftl-
cult Of sale.

Chicago, Oct. 31.-Wheat-A sharp
advance IN Liverpool, due to further
complications abroad and TO weather in
Argentina brought a rush of buying
orders to this market at the opening
and prices advanced to q above the
previous close. Profit taking on this
advance resulted in a setback of about
u lower than those Of yesterday. For
the week, December has lost Is, while
Nav has advanced about 4 cent. The
foreign situation continues strong and
as their supplies must come largely
from North and South America, much
now depends on the character of
weather during the harvesting period
IN the Argentina.
Corn-The corn market continues to
reflect to a large extent the action OF
local traders. An early advance fol-
flowed the reports Of higher markets
abroad and a fair over night demand
both from abroad and from domestic
con sumers. Local sentiment for the
most part is bearish ON the assumption
that the run of new corn will be early
and will come in liberal quantities to
this market. Investment trade Is dis
posed to await the effect Of the first
run Of corn in the hope that prices will
be depressed to q point where pur-
chases may safely be made for long
period.
Oat-The lack Of broad demand
for oats resulted IN decline from the
early advance and final prices were
Il lower for May and u cent lower for
December. Export business was on in
a moderate way, but most of the sales
are said to have been made for de-
ferred shipment. The local run was
more than adequate for domestic re-
quirements and prices on the sample
tables we're consequently lower
Observation-Disclosures felt the de-
preston IN grains and with moderate
offerings from packers and only lin
tied demand, prices were easier. Cash
trade in meats was said TO be disap-
pointing and demand for lard less ac-
tive. Hogs continue to arrive in liberal
volume and Of better weight and quail
ity than q year ago.

Stacker. and Feeders.

Chicago, Oct. 3i-A good demand was
shown for the fresh supply OF stockefs
and feeders, which was Of the usual
Friday volume, and dealers took over
the crop at generally steady prices
With the demand spread evenly thru
out the week. dealers have held their
stock down and a good clearance is ex-
pected only about 1000 head OF steers
going over for next week,
The weeks trade has hcen well bal
anced by lighter receipts and strong
er demand. The wide drop In prices
during the last month has acted both
ways, in shutting off heavy shipments
as well as proving attractive to buy
ers Receipts were much lighter tnan
week ago and made up genefaiV
better class, there being much less OF
the light stocker variety. which nave
been coming in such large numbers
and which have received the long ena
of the months break. The evening up
of marketings and demand has result
ed in advances of generally % cents
over last weeks close. Some OF the
poorer grade stuff has not felt the fun
advance, while others in the near beer
and choice yearling classes have caught
a 30 cent raise.
OHIO, Illinois and Michigan Ha'e
been in the trade for good kinds OF
feeders and some call has come IRON
the states further west. Pennsylvania
markets are reporting lighter recelpts
and q good many light plain cattie
have gone into eastern territory TINS
week, making a little healthier feeling
OH that grade than for some time
Stock COW and heifer trade mas
shared in the advance with butcher
cattle and prices are generally $50 %
cents higher than a week ago. Demand
has been just fair. but light receipts
and keener competition on butcher &C
count were the factors in price rails

BANKERS ARE NAMED
In BANKRUPTCY ACTION
C. W. Weber. A. R. Elmore, and A.
NJ. Travers Creditors of Lewis
Johnson & Co.

An involuntary petition in bankruptcy
was filed in the District Supreme Court
yesterday against Lewis johnson & Co..
/ bankers, 1905 Pennsylvania avenue north
west. John William Henry and Benjamin
W. Woodruff. who. individually and as CO.
partnership. traded under that name, are
, named as baHkrupts.
George W. Weber, Alfred r. Elmore
and Arthur NJ Travers are the creditors
In their petition they allege that Lewis
Johnson & Co. have failed to pay balances
due on certain stock transactions.
Weber alleges the company failed
! TO pay him $500 due on account of
certain stock transactions. Elmore claims
5000 and Travers $500
In its answer the company admits 1t is
unable to make these payments and
agrees to being declared bankrupt
This is the first financial failure oc-
curing in Washington In some time. and
In this case the business OF the firm Is
purely speculative. The assets and IiabiH-
ties OF the company were not named in
the proceedings. Receivers have enot
been named by the court.
Lewis Johnson & Co. yesterday made
the following statement:
The suspension of Lewis johnson &
Co. and the proceedings in bankruptcy
have been precipitated by the long-con-
tinued bad state of the stock market and
the uncertainties Of the fina nCial situation
a this time
THE matter is now in the Bankruptcy
Court and 1t is impossible at present to
state exactly the condition of the firm
until a report is made to the court by the
receiver showing the exact assets and la
bilities"
It is understood some of the larger
creditors of Lewis johnson & Co have a
plan under way for the reorganization and
financing of the business. The plan con-
templates the formation of a corporation
which shall take over the customers con-
tracts and commitments and ultimately
satisfy the debts of the firm. This plan
has been approved by a number OF the
creditors

Planning to Life Wool Embargo.

The lifting OF the British embargo on
the expectation OF wool from the United
Kingdom sufficiently to permit the supply
ing of the needs Of American wool manu-
facturers was regarded as likely here yes
terday. following the visit of Colville NJ
Barclay, counselor and charge d'affaires
OF the British Embassy. to the State De-
partment. State Department officials eX-
pect the British government will CO.
operate in making some arrangement
whereby American wool men can obtain
enough of the needed product to meet the
demands OF trade. 1t is understood
the basis of the plan will be guarantees
that none of the wool will zach the coun-
tries OF Great Britaln's enemies.
The germ theory of the transmission
of contagious diseases was entertained
as far back as 1867. when the plague
rGvaged Rome.

Students Hold First Assembly.

The Western High School students held
their first general assembly OF the year
in the large auditorium of Woodward &
Lothrop's yesterday morning. Owing to
the way the students have been scattered
because OF the fire in Western High
School several months ago, no effort was
made to assemble earlier this year. but
meetings will be held every two weeks
hereafter. In addition to donating the
use OF the auditorium for the meetings of
the assembly, President s. w. Woodward,
OF the firm, has contributed So to the
athletic fund.
