MARKET NERVOUS
Alternating Fears on Export
Grain Make Little Change.
Report 90 Million Pounds Meat
for Belgium Bulls Provisions.

Chicago, Feb. 17.-Alternating
hopes and fears regarding export
business largely dominated the wheat
market during the last week, with the
situation made more complex by de-
moralized railway traffic conditions
and by the chances of wider breach
between the Teutonic powers and the
United States In the end, prices
ranged from Il decline to 4 Is ad-
vance as compared with a week ago.
Corn lost Is 4 to Is, oats gained
1a4 to IL Ola and provisions
showed no material change.
Sharpest advances in wheat came
at the outset, due to assertions that
the British government had COM
Wandered South American ships and
would provide conveys of war vessels
to rush foodstuffs to Europe from
United States ports.
Bearish sentiment received on Tues
day an impetus from reports that
seemed to point to a likelihood of the
arming of all American merchant YES
sells. More acute weakness developed
next day owing to notices of fresh
embargo and on important railways
and because of reiterations from Ber-
lin that the U-boat campaign would
be extensively carried out.
Grain to Supersede Cotton.
Announcements that the British
government would load grain in pref
erence to cotton and that vessels for
Holland and other neutral countries
would be able to avoid the German
blockade by calling at Halifax, rallied
the wheat market on Thursday and so,
too, did the railroad situation. Alb
sence of fresh export buying led yes
terday to a renewal of bearish senti-
ment despite crop damage report from
the southwest and renewed ship sail

Mild weather that promised tic

2H cents a pound, based on the fact
that the Canadian governments inves-
t1gation of the paper industry showed
that the increased cost of producing
paper was only about SO per ton or
II cent per pound. The prevailing
price a year ago was about cents
pound, and that is the price that the
State Journal paid.
For the white paper the State
Journal is now using, the publisher
was obliged to pay 1-5 cents per
pound. We use daily about 1000
pounds. This price. of course, was
excessive and .extortionate; but a daily
paper must have white paper upon
which to print its issues.
After repeated efforts, the publisher
of this paper was unable to secure any
paper at the time of purchase for a
less figure than last above named, and
there was only one concern that even
offered paper at that price. We sim
ply had to buy it. and we had to
buy several cars, because one car only
lasts about ten days; and a car which
a year ago, as was stated in Fridays
S2,36O.
These purchases We're made in De-
cember. for the reason that the paper
must be made to order, of a certain
1 width of roll, and must be bought
weeks ahead of it's contemplated use.
! There is this to be said about the
Canadian price, that since that price
was fixed by the Canadian govern
ment, the raw material and the labor.

have both been advanced. Publishers
are glad now to contract for white pa
