There was a continuation OF Wednes-
days upward price movement in the

carried below the previous closing
levels. Midyale Steel and Tobacco
Products each ended fractonally lower.
while United Motors showed a loss OF
23s points. Standard Oil stocks were
a bit frmer, though quiet, and mining

PRICE OF LIVING
SEEMS TO WAIVER
Breadstuffs Have Risen,
but Provisions Are
Somewhat Cheaper.

Again the general level Of commodity
prices has gone lower, Dun's index num-
Der of wholesale quotations disclosing
a recession to sli39S0 on August !,
from sl45142 a month earlier. The
present total is S2.267, or l.6 per cent,
under the top point reached on May
1, but is much above the sl25O79
shown a year ago, when an upward
tendency wa IN progress. Considering
the striking advance that occurred in
previous months this year, the recent
reaction seems decidedly moderate and,
though declines have predominated OF
late, several important articles Of con-
sumption have gained still further in
value and are likely to go even higher.
A sharp drop in the index number
would have been witnessed but for the
continued rise in breadstuiFs. which
touched the highest level since Febru-
airy !. Alarming reports regarding the
crop in the Northwest, confirmed By tho
government estimate this week. sent
wheat prices up with a rush, and tho
other grains followed, though not SO
swiftly. Both beans and peas also adj
vanced and the total of the breadstutfs
group was S2S660, against s26.37s a
month earlier. Yet the upward move
ment in this quarter was more than off,
set by the recessions in the classes en-
bracng meat and provisions, dairy and
garden products and other food. Among
these, the widest change was in dairy
and garden, which went down from
Si9.435 to Sl7366, mainly as a result
of cheaper potatoes.
Consumptiye demands for raw nate
rails and manufactured articles have
been remarkably well sustained during
the summer period, and rallyng ten
denotes appear in some commodities
that recently showed signs of yielding.
Paucity of supplies continues a prom
inent factor in many directions and.
though competitive buying has abated.
strength in prices is still in evidence
in such important lines as steel, dry
goods, leather and footwear. Because
Of considerable damage to the growing
crop, raw cotton has risen sharply and,
with both cotton and woollen goods
and leather on a somewhat higher
plane. the clothing class stood at
S25.s99 on August 1, against S25.sO0
on July /. On the other hand, the
metals group, in spite Of the recovery
in certain forms Of steel that had pre-
yiously shown some recession, deelined
slightly, owing chiefly to the depres-
sion in tin, lead and the minor metals
generally. Quite a sharp drop occurred
in the miscellaneous division, due prin-
cipally to lower quotations for some
descriptions Of lumber and further re-
coil in drugs and chemicals, quite
long list Of the latter showing weak
ness.
The following table gives Dun's index
rambler for August l, with compari-
sons for earlier dates:

Wheat Notwithstanding that the
wheat market overtopped at times yes
terday the highest prices of the preyi-
Gus session, trading was relatively con-
tracted in volume and the fluctuations
as a rule did not exceed the usual
limits. What fresh strength developed
was largely due to reports of unseason-
ably early frost in Canada and to re-
ports of eager European demand. On
the other hand many holders, judging
that perhaps crop damage had been
discounted evinced a disposition to
realize profits. Opening prices, which
vance. with September at SLAB to $l.44
and December at S1.48 to Sl.4812, were
followed by material setback all

Experts of the Department of Agri-
culture calculate 100000 bushels of
wheat will be required for home CON
sumption this year. A crop OF 6b4,OOO,-
600 bushels, as forecast from August /
conditions, would feave 34,OO0,OO0
bushels Of this years crop available
for export. In addition, there was an
unusually large carry-over of old
wheat from last years crop, amount
ing to approximately 160,000.000 bush
els. or about 75000,000 bushels more
than the average carry-over of the pre-
cedjng five years. With the carry-over
of old wheat and the surplus of this
years estimated crop, officials believe
he United States will have at least
40 OO0.OO bushels available for export
purposes.
