GRAIN AND PRODUCE
Cash Grain Market is Very
Dull as Foreign Demand
Drops Sharply.
SLUMP IN ALL CEREALS

Omaha, December :, 1915
The cash grain market was very dull
again today and all cereals took decided
slump. There was hardly any demand for
wheat. except by the millers, who were
willing to take only the best grades OF
milling wheat Wheat was exceptionally
weak and the &c to &c drop today was the
biggest decline that wheat has suffered for
some time The bulk OF the No. hard
sold at &l.ss,a and sl.77h, about be under
yesterdays average price, while the bulk
OF the No. hard sold at Sl.63 and Sl.ei,
decline OF &c to &c per bushel
Corn was quoted from &c TO &c on, but
the market was not unsteady as wheat
and there was a pretty good percentage OF
the samples disposed Of before the hour OF
closing
premium, but the bulk Of the corn sales
were made up of No. . yellow and mixed
corn, which sold generally at SIC and 81 Nc
The cash inquiry for oats was moder-
steIy active. and while prices ruled from
ic to 1iac lower, the trade was fairly brisk
and buyers took up most Of tho samples at
50ac and 5O&c and paid around soc and
50hc for the poorer samples,
Rye followed wheat on the decline and
was quoted from SC TO ne lower. but the
cash trade was pretty active, considering
the drop In prices.
The barley market was unimportant and
only a few cars were sold. the market
being quoted from &c TO SC on,
ciearances were. wheat and flour equal
to 1000 bushels; corn, none; oats, 1000
bushels.

London Hopes to Develop
Latent Decorative Artists
Correspondence Of the Associated Press.)

Correspondence Of the Associated Press.)
London, Nov. 1o.--Artists in dis
tress through the war, are being en-
ployed to decorate the walls of many
of the public schools of this city with
friezes and panels, illustrative of life
and industry in the British dominions
beyond the seas. One of the most
striking pictures depicts London with
St. Pauls cathedral overlooking the
Thames, and barges and steamers
moving about the river. Others are of
pastoral scenes in Canada, Austria,
South Africa and the West Indies.
By extending the work throughout
the school system the board of edu-
cation hopes to develop the magma
ton of the pupils and possibly de-
velop large school of decorative
painting in England.

Germans Prepare for
Retreat to Frontier

Correspondence of The Associated Press.)
Amsterdam, Netherlands, Nov. L.
According to information CLEANED
from several hundred refugees from
the occupied regions of northern
France, who have been passing
through Holland, the Germans have
prepared positions far behind their
present front, They are, it is said,
reckoning more and more on the pos
sibility of retreat to the Belgian
frontier. The positions near Maui
beuge and Hautmont are even more
formidable than those north of Lille.
The old forts are deserted, for, taking
full account of the new methods of
warfare, the Germans have con-
structed network OF trenches, and
great earthen caverns made with the
aid of reinforced concrete and iron.
News comes from northern France
as well as from Belgium Of the in
creasing number OF the population
who are being put to work by the
