GRAIN Axp PROVISIONS.

CHICAGO. June 2s-Prospects Of i'm
mediate embargoes to reduce wheat
exports to European neutrals gave a
downward impulse today to wheat
values. The market was bearishly af-
fected also by optimistic crop advices,
especially from the spring wheat re-
gfon. Opening quotations. which ranged
from to cents lower, with July at
2.01 and September at $50 to 1Sl,
were followed b. a slight further de-
cline and then something OF a rally.
Corn prices weakened as a result Of
rains in Kansas. where drought had been
complained of. Resides. reports were at
hand indicating that a large amount of
corn still remained TO be marketed in
Illinois. After opening y to Ral
lower prices suffered a moderate ad-
ditional setback before a recovery be-
gAp.
Oats eased down with corn. Buying
ascribed TO seaboard account, though,
proved later to be more than an Offset
= Falling of in shipments of lard and
meats had a bearish effect on provisions.
Announcement late In the session that
the government would soon completely
dominate the distribution OF wheat
! both for domestic and export purposes
and that option trading in wheat would
be abolished brought the wheat market
to almost standstill. Business In the
Z future delivery pit ceased entirely for
AN interval The close was steady, IL
to cents net lower. with July at 2.01

cuently to something Of an advance,

Important Ruling.

A very important ruling has been
made by the Treasury Department af-
fecting the collateral to be deposited In
security of liberty loan funds left with
the banks:
I'm view of the fact that a large per-
centage of liberty loan bonds were
taken by small investors and that
heavy cuts were taken in the allot-
ments to large subscribers. it appears
fha. an emergency exists with respect
to the % per cent requirements in
United States securities az security for
liberty loan deposits. In order to meet
this emergency 10 per cent Of securities
acceptable for collateral must be in
United States securities. instead of the
rs per cent heretofore ordered"
