CORN QUOTATIONS DOWN

The wheat market vas only moder-

largely OF q professional character.
Prices experienced an early upturn Of .
to I cents . bushel on scattered buying
by commission houses. prompted by the
recent show OF strength In tho cash
position and Influenced by nrmness In
the American Northwest and Winnipeg.
Exporters were reported as buying
again. and II was said that range
ments were being made to relieve the
tonnage situation. although predictions
OF submarine activities and reports that
leading British steamship companies
had refused to disclose sailing dates of
steamers caused more or less uneasiness
In shipping circles.
The German reply to the American
note seemed TO revive hopes Of peace
In the near future. After the reply
was published selling pressure increased
materially. and late In the day prices

NNANCIBRS PRAISE
RESERVE BANK PLAN
London Correspondent Ex-
pected to Help U. s. Foreign
Trade After War.
SEE MORE GOLD COMING
Appointment Of Other Foreign
Government Banks Is
Looked For.

Appointment Of the Bank Of England
as correspondent Of the Federal Reserve
Bank Of New York was made with a
view to extending this country's foreign
trade banking facilities after the war
rather than to stop the inflow Of precious
metal Into the United States At present,
according to opinions expressed yester-
day In high banking circles.
Bankers said that the appointment
would have practically no effect In halt
ing gold shipments. which nov approxi-
mate $4,000. 900 q week. To stop the
shipments. II was pointed out the Re-
serve Bank would have to purchase a
similar amount Of bills In London each
week. Moreover, II was asserted that
the situation at present was too big for
the Federal Reserve Bank or the Bank
OF England 10 handle. despite their size
and power.
Nevertheless when the war Is over and
trade conditions again become normal
bankers believe that the Reserve Bank,
through the purchase OF bills In London,
can prevent shipments Of gold at certain
seasons when the balance OF trade turns.
1t Is expected that announcements will
be made o Of the appointment Of
other foreign Government banks as cor
respondents Of tho Reserve Bank here.
In practically all banking circles the
appointment was highly praised and
bankers generally were Of the opinion
that IL had no political Significance and
had not been done to offset the effect
created by the recent refusal Of the Fed
era1 Reserve Board to indorse the pur-
chase Of British Inc French treasury
bills In this market.
Negotiations for the action had been
going on. II was said. for months before
the Reserve Boards statement wal made
public. the first move having been made
about a year ago when Benjamin n.
Strong. then governor OF The local Re-
serve Bank, was in London.
