Sus ten ance
Cereals

Wheat Prices worked slightly low
or yesterday. There was more liquida-
ton at Chicago. Sentiment in The
trade, however, is GENERALLY bullish
on the short crop prospect.
Gums Review" says: even men Of
long experience in the grain trade have
looked with amazement on the perform
ance of wheat. Recent events seemed
striking enough. but developments last
week equalled, if they did not sur
pass. anything that has been seen since
the war began Those who professed
disappointment because prices broke
rather sharply in the early dealings
subsequently witnessed a rise of over
Toe during a single session, and not
until the May delivery at Chicago
touched Sl.55 was the upward move
ment definitely checked. Confidence on
the buying side had been tempered
by somewhat better crop news over
the week end, but bullish enthusiasm
became more rampant than ever after
the publication of the government re
mort on Tuesday. Past experience has
demonstrated that private claims OF
crop damage are usually exaggerated
vet the official figures last week more
than confirmed all that had been said
about deterioration IN spring wheat
from rust and blight. Recent esti-
mates of only 200,00OOOO bushels for
this crop had been regarded with sus-
nicion. but the Washington prediction
is 600 600 bushels less, and $4,000
600 bushels is the forecast for spring
and winter wheat combined. This
means the smallest harvest since 1911,
and compares with the record, breaking
v;eld Of over billion bushels last
wear. Under the conditions, it is not
surprising that prices have registered
an extensive advance, and there are no
means of telling how much higher. Il

Cotton Business contracted in the
cotton market yesterday, but the tone
was strong. Offerings were well abb
sorbed as a general thing.
Market opinion is mixed at the mo-
ment. One house says:
"The question arises whether, after
all, present prices do not discount what
is so far known as 10 the oUtturn Of
the crop. 1t may be quite true that
still higher prices will be seen later,
but for the present, reports reaching
the market from the storm-stricken
states rather lead to the belief that
they are recuperating, while Texas,
Oklahoma and Arkansas advices con-
firm in the main that excellent results
will be obtained from now on. 1t is
true that large sections need rain
badly, but there is 40 assurance that
il may come in ample me. as has
happened so often before. Further
more, il is well to bear in mind that
before long new cotton will come
nearer day by day, and it may be that
spinners will be slow buyers at this
price level, throwing a good deal Of
! edge selling on TO the exchanges. On
the whole, we feel it would be unwise
TO try TO force prices higher at the
moment, and we believe that the reac-
tiOn will On further"

Dumping in Japan.

The market for imports has been in
creasingly unfsvOrable lately. This IS
generally attributed in part to the
subsistence of the speculation fever
that was responsible for the recent
abnormal boom, but there seems 20 be
another cause When the market was
unreasonably high it was impossible TO
get sufficient imports, owing TO the
pressure on freight space scarcely a
1.-THE OF the quantity ordered being
imported. japanese importers there
fore sent orders abroad for quantities
far greater than were actually wanted.
Il was not long, however, before the
pressure on shipping was relaxed and
conditions became favorable for Euro
pean and American exporters 10 make
shipments to Japan. The result has
been a great influx OF imports into the
country.
To cite an instance, stocks of pulp,
of which there was such dearth some
time ago, now amount 20 as much as
5000 tons in Osaka, Kobe, Toxic and
Yokohama. In addition, imports are
arriving 70 the quantity OF about 5000
tons a month. As the price has fallen,
the loss 10 importers must be very
considerable.
OF more serious consequence is the
fact that as importers ordered larger
quantities than were actually neces-
sary. which are now arriving, they are
compelled in not a few cases 70 con-
verr their holdings into cash. This
conversion naturally takes the form Of
dumping which has been necessary not
ONLY with pulp but with all other com
modities which recently underwent an
abnormal boom. such as iron, chemi-
Gals and medicines, etc.-Reported by
Consul General Scidmore, at Yoke

BIG FOREIGN AND
DOMESTIC STEEL ORDERS
Allies Buy $4,000, 900 Worth of
Shell Steel-Ford's Big Contract

The Allied governments have closed
contracts for 100000 tons Of she'll steel

1t is understood that the order includes
semi-fnished steel as well as bars and
forcings, sold at an average price OF
s67.5O a ton. If this is correct the
total contract calls for the payment OF
s83. $50. 900 Deliveries are to be made
as soon as possible, but probably VIII
not be completed until July, 1914

during the week was the report that
the Ford Motor Company had closed a
contract for 10000 tons of fabricated
steel with the American Bridge COM

steel is TO be used in the construction
of a large steel plant at Detroit oy

State Competition in
Selfish Rate Making

The Public Utilities Commission OF
Ohio gave reduction in rates TO
mines located on the Toledo Ohio
Central and the Hooking Valley when
the destination was the port Of Toledo.
The reduction amounts to and III
cents a ton from different localities.
Operators in other Ohio districts. sup
ported by chambers of commerce,
boards of trade and the like IN their
respective communities, started a cam
paign TO have the same low rates eX-
tended to all the Ohio coal fields. 1t
has been a foregone conclusion Tor
months that that is precisely what
would happen. Therefore, it has been
a foregone conclusion that II any ONO
mines got dfferential over West Vir-
ginia and Pennsylvania, all Of them
would share in II.
The coal operators Of Western Penn
sylvania and West Virginia, together
with those OF Indiana and Illinois, are
now confronted by new rate situs-
ton. Ohio's differential has been IN
creased against all of them. They are
on the defensive, in consequence
against Ohio operators in all common
markets. Whether they will take any
defensive action, such as suggesting
realignment Of rates. is matter stiil
omen for considerable discussion. what
West Virginia intends to do has not so
far been told. II seems reasonably sure
that the Western States will start sc-
ton in a short while. ,..
This all suggests not competition
in rate tinkering as between states
with the railroads as the only victims
and the consumers of coal as the only
beneficiaries- general discussion
of coal freight rates and their relation
TO the markets and general read
iustment-if one is needed-in when
al the competitive factors are TAKEN
into account.
We know that the Interstate Com
merce Commission does not care 10
undertake a study Of the competitive
element in rate making. IL doesn't
make rates to fit the needs OF snip
pers, but merely to adjust revenue 70
| the necessities of the railroads. our
suggestion is that if the commission
! is not properly constituted TO under
take the broad investigation, under
! adyisement here, a properly consti-
tuted body should be formed for that
particular purpose. If it cannot come
except through an act Of Congress,
then we cannot urge too strongly the
presentation of the matter. without
delay, to the authorities at Washing
ton.

Industrial

Metals. Buying of steel continues
on a large scale. The foreign demand
is heavy. The biggest development in
the trade this week was the order for
100000 tons of shell steel placed with
the United States Steel Corporation and
the independents by the Allies. The
advance in quotations for bars, shapes.
plates, wire and other articles an
nounced by the leading interests has
had no effect on the demand and in
quiries are coming in just as fast as
they did before the upturn. Some con-
sumers in this country who have been
holding off for several months, appar-
emily being influenced by the published
reports of concessions in prices, are
now compelled TO come in as buyers
and forced to pay higher prices.
Reports of huge foreign inquiries for
copper from the European belligerents
while true to some extent are, never
theless. probably somewhat exagger-
ated. Especially is this the case with
the rumored inquiries of the Teutonic
Allies. As for the Entente Allies, it
is known definitely that they are in the
market for large tonnages of copper for
next years delivery.
Prices current for few o. the prin-
cipal metals and metal products, COM
pared with those prevailing at the cor
responding time of last year, follow:
