CHICAGO WHEAT TAKES
EXTRAORDINARY DROP
Heavy Selling Of Stop-Loss Char
acter Paralyzes Demand-Vigorous
Buying Checks Fall.

CHICAGO. January 16.-selling out
of immense quantities of wheat today
smashed prices cents bushel. The
extraordinary drop in values directly
followed announcements that an effort
would be made to bring about through
Congress an official embargo on ex-
ports of wheat from the United States.
Much of the selling was of stop-loss
character
The paralysis of demand was at
times so complete that it was impos-
sible to execute orders to let go OF
holdings. It was not long. though, be-
fore strong firms took vigorous hand
at buying and there was reaction
of 21s.
Sensational weakness in wheat did
not develop at the outset. Opening
prices were at a moderate setback of

when 1t did start, however, showed a
sWiftness seldom equaled.

NEW YORK, January 16.-Proht-tak-

the net result was not especially ad-

New international financing and
greater ease of money were among the
broader developments. Russia placed
