OF transporting grain to Europe and
made evident the likelihood of con-

Word that all Dutch ports had been

from the same as yesterdays finish to

Corn sagged with wheat. Selling
pressure, however, was not heavy.
After opening 3s to esc down, the mar
ket rallied little, but then descended
lower than before.
Oats had no independent action. Trade
was mainly of a local character.
Weakness of grain and hogs put the
provision market on the down grade.
Ribs especially were depressed.
Subsequently rumors that export de-
mand was showing some signs Of reviv-
ing led to wheat rallies. which. how

BANKERS PREPARE FOR

Expect the Government to Put Out
$500, 900, 900 and Look for 8 IL
Per Cent Interest Rate.
ovsrsubscription Assured-Millions
of Money Available-Local
Bonds Show Recessions.
BY I. A. FLEMING.

Bankers are discussing the probable
issue by tho government OF large
amount of bonds in the near future'
and are considering the probable rate
Of interest that would be offered.
II 1, generally believed that the
forthcoming issue will be sSOo.oeo,ooo
to $500. .oOo, 900, and that the marketing
or the bonds would be immediate and
.uecessful; in fact, that there VIII nc
bids for many times the amount OF the
issue.
The hanks and trust companies have
tho money millions of il, and the maj
cations strongly favor successful sale
on 3i2 per cent or perhaps PEI 80

fer the al. per cent rate. and peiieVe
that this will be the figure decideo
upon, although admitting that there
would probably be good denaho io'
= ; per cents.
! .ron,ise of a government issue has les
scned the demand for other bonds ma
,1crially, and bankers are making 1ur
fher preparations in anticipation Oh the
announcement =.
wall street believes that the prospect
for a government bond issue has oeen
responsible for the neglect and sellihs
of rail shares.
Should the rate of the anticipated
bond issue be made on per cent
basis the subscriptions would be many
times in excess of the offerings
- In the Interest of Preparedness.
A movement has been started in
banking circles in this city in the IN
terest of preparedness. A call has been
issued and sent to all fiscal institu-
tions, suggesting the formation OF q
company of bank clerks. with drills
and other training work after banking
hours and on Saturdays.
Money Rates Firmer.
Rates of time loans are firmer, per
cent being asked in New York for all
naturities. Call money is still very
cheap, ranging from . < to 2l4 per cent
. German and Austrian exchange is very
strong, owing to the transfer of large
funds from this side to Berlin and vi
emma The supply was greatly restrict-
vestors abroad and higher prices were
asked for exchange.
On the Stock Exchange.

strength, before the end Of the hour,
only to again develop weakness and
material recessions before the advent

Conditions were rather favorable to

Sharp advances in marine insurance.
