Wheat. Local traders viewed the
sensational decline in wheat prices yes
terday in the light of raid, but they
were at loss TO understand what par
ticular developments have furnished
the incentive for such activity. II was
whispered in some quarters that enor-
nous orders were delivered in the
Chicago market just few minutes
before the close 20 sell huge quaint
ties without price limit. Some traders
thought that much Of the selling was
caused by reports that two or more
vessels had been sunk by submarines.
Ii was also vaguely rumored that many
large orders came from Wall Street
and were prompted by equally indef-
mite rumors that prominent officials in
Washington were in favor Of placing
m embargo on wheat exports. IL is,
however, hardly probable that the mere
possibility of the placing of an en-
barge month or so hence would cause
such a sensational break. Nor did the
report from Chicago that leading trunk
lines had placed embargoes on ship
ments to the seaboard seem sufficient
to explain the action of the market.
Just before the close short sellers
bought freely TO take in profits and
thus caused a partial recovery. De-
cember wheat, which closed at S1.73h
Monday and rose TO sl742s, suddenly
fell under an avalanche of selling to
Sl.60, then quickly recovered to sl.66.
May, which closed at St60H Monday
and sold at $l6l in the morning, fell
TO Sl.70}4, but closed at Sl.75.
At the lowest point May wheat
showed a loss of 32@c since October
so. which would seem to be sufficient
break in so short a time to satisfy the
most exacting bear. Therefore many
dealers thought a favorable time had
arrived In which they might resume
buying. IL was claimed that over
200, 900 bushels had been bought for
European account, including a large
quantity for forward shipment to
Greece. This was said TO be mainly
Canadian. In addition II was stated
that within a day or two over 10000
barrels Of -four had been sold 20 ship
pers TO Europe.
The small early rise was ascribed
largely 10 reports that the invading
armies in Rumania had captured or de-
stroyed a large quantity Of grain in
tended for the Allies. In addition il
was said that the retreating army had
also destroyed much grain to keep 1t
out OF the hands Of the enemy.

Advises Better Terms

The propaganda fsvoring the sale in
this market Of the unsecured obliga-
tions OF England and France was for
mally launched IN q statement issued
by II. =. Dawson, of J. p Morgan &
Co., upon his return from London on
October 80. Mr.. Dawson, in that state
ment and on subsequent occasions, de-
veloped the suggestion that II this
country wishes to maintain It's war
trade with the Entente Allies on the
present scale it will have to treat them
as voluntary customers, make better
terms and be willing to accept their
unsecured notes in payment
Mr.. Davison's recent visit to the
/ White House was 10 impress on the
Administration the ACCESSIBILITY Of ac-
cepting the unsecured obligations OF
the Allies in payment for goods bought
from American manufacturers. He APP
prised President Wilson of the plans
of j. p. Morgan & Co. to offer for
sale British and French Treasury bills
Rumors of Big Project
One of the reports heard in financial
circles yesterday was that Mr.. Dawson
told the President that an effort would
be made TO sell at least half a billion
Of the bills. IT, contrast to the previous
understanding of the Administration
that the amount would be limited to
00000,000. This was one Of the res
sons assigned for the statement Of the
Federal Reserve Board on the eve of
the Offering.
Bankers in the financial district re-
fused to lend their names for quota
ton in their comment on the Reserve
Boards statement, but among the opin-
ions expressed privately were pro
German" n reflection on the credit
of Great Britain and France" a direct
invitation for further gold imports, +"
etc. Bankers also saw a possible re-
sumption of selling Of foreign held
American securities as a result Of the
boards suggestion that this method OF
payment was still open for use.
The head of one prominent national
bank predicted that If further Allied
borrowings were restricted, there would
be a material falling off in our export
trade. This, he said, would not only
be felt by the exporter, but by the
laborer, who is now receiving higher
wages than ever before in history.
Sale Stopped Short
An interesting sidelight on the i'm
mediate effect Of the warning issued by
the Federal Reserve Board concerning
the purchases of belligerent securities
by private investors appears In the an
nouncement by Kuhn, Loeb & Co. yes
terdGy that of the recent offering by
them Of SEQ ,000, 900 bonds OF the French
cities OF Bordeaux, Lyons and Mar
settles only 20 per cent OF the amount
underwritten by the bankers had been
sold. The bankers had UNDERWRITERS"
that is, had guaranteed the sale Of
$50 100000. The amount sold was APP
proximately s25,000,0O0. The interest
ing feature Of this incident is that the
subscriptions stopped coming in last
Friday, when rumors began 10 be heard
that the Federal Reserve Board would
issue a warning to investors In foreign
loans. Yesterday was the last day for
receiving subscriptions, and none was
received.

Bills Not Renewable

That the bills are not renewable,
although this Interpretation is placed
on the terms Of the offering by The
Federal Reserve Board. ANY bank
purchasing the bills, according to
the Morgan partner, is under no OBJ
legation to take other than cash at
their maturity.
That if the attitude taken by the
Federal Reserve Board acts az a
serious deterrent to the absorption
of the bills BY banks, Allied pur-
chases in the future may have to be
limited TO the amounts that can be
paid for in gold This would natu-
rally be less than the volume OF
goods sold under an arrangement
whereby payments could be made
with | o US, in addition to gold.
Then there is a possibility, though
not yet formally considered, that the
companies producing war goods will
take direct payment in the treasury
bills of belligerent nations.

AFTER HUSTLERS FRANCHISE
Jack O'Hara and Dan O'NciI Submit
 Proposition to Cornen and Knor1- Ball May Be Deposed as Manager.

Springfield, June 15.-Jack O'Hara, local business man and baseball gen. cIal, and Dan O'Neil, a Springfield real estate dealer, submitted a proposition yesterday for the pur- chase of the Bridgeport franchise of the Eastern league to the present owners, Messrs. Cornen and Knorr. Just what the proposition was, the local men would not say last night, but the Bridgeport owners are ex- pected to consider it and give an answer in few days.
 Things have not all been going right at Bridgeport, and it has been known in that part of the circuit for several days that the present owners were willing to sell out. The pur- chase of the club by the local men would probably mean the deposition of Neal Ball as manager and he would most likely be succeeded by Nr. O'Hara The latter managed Claremont in the Twin-State league last year and was very popular with the fans of that circuit. He played with the Springfield club in the Eastern association a few seasons ago, and he is a favorite with local follow CTS of the game. He would undoubt- edly make a great attempt to bolster up the Hustlers and get them on their way out of last place.

 the stroke oar of the 1918 freshmen
 combination. He is a man of wide experience, having, like several of his mates in the varsity shell, rowed in the crews of the Duluth Rowing club under the coaching of young Jim Ten Eyck. In physique the Syracuse boatload is not over large, averaging in weight something like 16S pounds, about three pounds under the Cornell crew. Like wise, they row the short. hard stroke taught by the Ten Eyc<s.

Considerable Relic

The original Cub guard should be dated from 1906. This was +ho season where Frank Chance first started the great machine into ton speed.
 From this Old Guard there are only two regulars in active work-Franlz Schulte and Johnny Evers. Miner Brown is still wearing a Cub uniform, but Brownie only indulges his great right wing once in a while for relief work.
 So Schulte Is the sole survivor among the regulars still wearing Cub harness Frank is a relic, therefore, but Considerable relic of one of the great machines of all time.
 The wonder is not that Schulte still survives, but that now in the midst of his eighteenth campaign he is having the best year he has ever known. With a batting average above .340 he is close to the top of the batting ladder, and if he has lost any vital spark of his speed, it doesn't show in his daily work
