lowing the conference except that an
other meeting would be held to-day.

ers' committee referred 20 yesterdays
discussions as a preparedness meeting
with pacific tendencies" He said that
those in attendance showed a desire 20
lift the company out Of receiyership

sonted the American International.
One of the unsolyed problems IN the

New York, June /. 1916
WHEAT

New low records for the movement were
established in the wheat market yesterday.
ana final quotations were at the low OF the
day. with net losses Of lssMI7sc. There wns
moderate buying early on the assumption that
a rally was due after the recent decline. es-
pecially a. the Liverpool market showed n
stcsdier tone. but selling pressure increased
steadily. and early buyers turned sellers. and
sentiment generally was boarish.
The poor cash demand and large supplies
Of old crop wheat were depressing factors
in the market, and there appeared 20 be
little probability of large export sales, the
tote! days business aggregating 100 900
bushels and II was said that wheat ssll-
ing in the foreign markets considerably under
parity with local quotations. Argentine
shipments for the week were estimated az
1000. 600 bushels. compared with 1892. 900
last week and 1922 600 last year.
In the cash market No l durum was

The corn market was comparatively steady
during the early operations. and prices
worked up AG 3sc on scattered commission
house buying owing to evidence of nervous
ness over the cash position. The weekly
weather and crop bulletin reported decided
improvement in the condition Of the corn
crop in all parts Of the country. and late
in the DAY values declined sharply and closed
with net losses of &c. Some complaints have
been received regarding poor termination
and reduced acreage in the South. but il was
the general impression that the next govern
nnent report would show high average con-
dition well large acreage In the
local cash market No yellow corn was
quoted at S0'sc, I New York.
