OCEAN RATES WILL
 BE FORGED DOWN
 ON FEDERAL ORDER

Washington, July 24-Radical revision been agreed upon in principle by ship ping commissioners designated by Presi- dent Wilson and the British foreign of flee to represent the governments of the United States and Great Britain.
 Copies of proposed agreement under which the two governments not only would make sweeping reductions in pres ent prohibitive rates, but virtually would take over operation of allied mer- chantmen in the Atlantic have been placed before the state department and the British foreign office for approval
 Washington July 24-The American government control of exports has re- suited in an absolute embargo on cargoes destined to the northern Euro pean neutral countries. Since the con- trol was made effective little more than week ago not a single cargo, 1t was learned today, has been licensed for shipment to these nations.
 The policy enforced is described as temporary, to be changed as soon as it is possible to put the neutrals on a ra- tton1ng basis. Despite submission or much information by neutral diplomats, the government considers that it lacks convincing evidence regarding exports from these countries to Germany and it wants to take no chances of permitting American goods to go through. to the enemy. The facts sought, it is said will be available shortly.
 Goods destined for the allied countries are licensed without question, as are commodities that go forward to Switzer- land but not until the capture of the consignee was established beyond aues- tion.

GRAIN AND PRODUCE

Chicago. July 2i-Brightening crop re- ports from the big corn producing states such as Kansas. Iowa and Nebraska. gave a decisive downward turn today to the corn market here. Prices finished easy, 1zc to 26c net lower with September S1 63M and December Sl.1f1s to Sl.14s4 Wheat de- clined 5c to 61ac and closed steady at $2.54 July and s2.25 September. Oats lost ssa7se to 294c and provisions 25c to BOG.
 Word of the breaking up of a two months drouth in north central Kansas acted as a starter for aggressive general selling of corn.
 Renewal of peace gossip from Wash ington counted. too, in some degree against the bulls. No sufficient reason for
 any important rally developed and the lowest prices of the day were reached just before the close.
 Expected enlargement of receipts of wheat here did a good deal to send values for that cereal down grade. It
 was gossip that there would be a con siderable amount of wheat delivered in Chicago on July contracts before the end of the present week. In addition diff culties hindering the progress of food legislation seemed to act somewhat as a weight on the market.
 Oats broke sharply under selling from big house which had recently been a conspicuous purchaser.
 Weakness of grain and of cotton seed oil pulled down provisions. Advances in the hog market seemed to be wholly ig- Dored

COTTON MARKET
 SHOWS WEAKNESS
Setback Is Attributed to Weakness of Southern
 Spot Markets

New York, July 24.-The cotton market was irregular today, showing weakness early, when October declined to 2361c and December to the same figure under liquidation following private report which made condition 73. or 27 points from bottom. At the highest of the day October sold at 24.OSc and December 24.03c, from which level there was re- action near the close, final prices being to 26 points net lower. The opening was steady at F points advance to 4 points net decline. There was moderate covering at the start, but the condition report, coupled with southern selling against new crop Texas cotton, Wall street selling and pressure from Liver pool interests soon promoted a weak undertone. On the decline good trade buying developed and this in connection with some unfavorable reports from the eastern belt, where further heavy rains were predicted, threatening a spread of boil weevil activity, proved to be sus- taining factor throughout most of the afternoon. The setback near the close was attributed to weakness in southern spot markets and to scattered unloading by earlier buyers. The Liverpool cables were 15 points lower on both spots and futures. It was reported that early Texas cotton will be largely taken up by Japanese merchants this season, as they have done an enormous business with far eastern countries, which formerly purchased largely from Manchester.

New Orleans Cntton

New Orleans, July 24.-Ihe tendency ot cotton here today was toward lower levels, although the sesslon had one or two periods of steadiness. Improved crop accounts, lack oI rain in the At!an- ties, the drop of half cent a pound in spot quotations and the rumor that a private crop reporting bureau was com ing out with condition figures of 73 per cent of the normal of better, stimulated selling. The net change for the day was a loss of b to 22 points.
 On the opening there was a momen- tary advance of to points, but prices quickly fell off under selling pressure from bearish traders, who regarded the weather map and private reports from the belt in very favorable light. Some liquidation came from the long side in addition. In drop quickly carried the active months 25 to 2S points under the level of yesterdays close.
 The market held barely steady for a while, with little support coming from any quarter, but finally in the early afternoon buying was encouraged by re- ports of boil weevil damage in the cen tral belt and the market gradually re- covered and advanced to net rise of 10 to Il points, the highest levels of the day The easiness shown by spots en- couraged fresh selling toward the close and prices fell off again.

Fight Alleged Ice Combine

Nashville July PA bill filed in the chancery court on relation to the state this morning seeks to invoke the state antitrust laws against an alleged ice combination here The Southern Ice com pany, the City Delivery company and the Independent Ice company are made defendants.

The alleged cobbination is charged with attempting to monopolize the retail ice business of the city.

TOCKS RESUME COURSE
Iraders Again. Take Bear
 Side; Forcing Prices to Lowest Level

New York, July 24-Stocks resumed
 e smallest turnover of any full session
 us far this summer. Total dealings bare
 amounted to 5o0,oo0 shares, steels,
 Euipments and shippings contributing
 lily two-thirds of the whole.
 Traders again aligned themselves on
 Ie bear side, forcing prices to lowest Fels in the last hour, the only active ,lriod of the day. So far as they had Nky incentive at all, operations were al
 Eost wholly governed by adverse reports lom Washington.
 Phippings were further depressed at the ktset, but rallied temporarily on the
 imitation of the original shipbuilding Bard, only to lose ground again later. 3iils were moved to higher levels for Nssion decision, which favored the west Sn and Pacific coast carriers, but soon back with the general list.
 Changes elsewhere scarcely warrant de- Eiled comment, steels and the several pr groups repeating their familiar move 'bents of alternate advances and declines pited States Steel fiuctuated between f% and 12OA, closing at 1201a, a net loss 1$ points. Various other industrials hd specialties forfeited extreme gains to points, the market ending with Hheavy undertone.
 Fhe $5,0O0,000,OO0 budget submitted to Pngress by the Secretary of the Treas fy invited earnest discussion in bank tg circles, but was without effect upon
 cal money conditions. Call loans were Iade at 21s per cent down to 1% per $nt, but no concessions were reported in kne accommodations. Preparations were ,hder way for next weeks payment of bother large liberty loan payment. Rubles were the only foreign remit Ances to show any pronounced change, bpeating their recent low record of q h the discouraging military news from lussia. Rumors of an early resumption l gold imports from Canada lacked au- koritative confirmation.
