SELLING RENEWED
 ]. ON STOCK EXCHANGE
Rejection of Pope's Peace Plans Had No Influence
 on Market

New York, August 2s.-Rejection by Washington of the Vaticans peace plan evidently exerted no especial influence over todays stock market. Selling was renewed at the outset and continued dur ing the forenoon on an enlarged scale. Offerings originated mainly by bears, who succeeded in picking out additional weak spots. but signs of liquidation were un- mistakable at that period. No section of the list escaped the at tention of the short interest, although rails and few other high-grade invest ment shares yielded only slightly. The to point rallies of the afternoon re- suited in substantial readjustment of losses and some actual gains
 At their lowest levels war Issues were 2 to points down, but standard indus trials offered resistance to pressure. Uni ted States Steel repeated it's recent min mum quotation of 1181a, but rallied to 119B and closed at 1191k, a net gain of half a point. Other steels and affiliated equipments, together with minor metals and specialties proved more vulnerable. Motors were again weak, Studebaker es- tablishing new low record on its fall of points to 441h with similar re- versal for General Motors.
 Shippings and tobaccos rebounded sharply from their first setback, the for mer leading in the general rally of the last hour with material recoveries for oils and coppers.
 Another slump in rubles to IS 40 ship ment of an additional $500 GOO gold to Ja- pan and greater scarcity of time funds were among the related incidents of the day.
 Bonds were irregular to heavy with a wider range for the liberty issue at 9s 92 to 99.9S. Total sales, par value, aggre- gated $2,265,0 ,000
 United States bonds old issues were unchanged on call

GRAIN AND PRODUCE

Chicago. August 29.-Mixed sentiment among traders was apparent today and
 resulted In an unsettled corn market,
 though fluctuations were within compara- lively narrow limits. Houses with east ern connections were prominent on the ! selling side and word came from the sea-
 board of offerings of Argentine cargoes at lower prices. Selling on the high points met good absorbing powers and
 the finish was well toward top prices for
 the day. The close was strong, AQc higher, with December at 1OsA and May at Slo55saL059l. Oats gained A@%c. Cash
 wheat closed firm. Provisions made gains
 of from 22Q75c.
 Strength of cash corn contributed firm ness to the futures and buyers of corn were further influenced by the weekly government weather and crop report, which was moderately bullish, contain ing the statement that low large areas would need favorable weather to mature the crop before damage is liable from ! frost.
 Wheat traders eagerly awaited word of 1 the government fixing wheat prices. The cash market was firm, but volume Of | trading was not large. It was expected 1 that the price set on wheat by the gov- ernment would have an important bear ing on the settlement figures for out standing contracts on the September op- tion.
 Oats trade was not of impressive qnan- tity, but the market held generally firm and September final figures were vir- tually even with the December price Light country offerings were determining factors for firmness. Cash values held steady.
 Hog strength and good demand were controlling elements which caused provi- sion prices to advance. Packers were credited with buying and much of the selling was of realizing nature.
 Future quotations were as follows:
 Wheat Open. High. Low. Close.

New York Futures
New Orleans Cotton

New Orleans, August 29.-Rapid price changes within rather marrow limits were recorded in the cotton market today. During the greater part of the session prices were at a small net advance as the result of covering operations or shorts, who were disappointed because of the unfavorable actions of the weekly crop and weather reports. Final prices showed net losses of IS to B points. On the opening the market was on as 1 a result of the rains in Texas overnight but after selling down to a loss of 20 to 2S points shorts commenced to cover and this buying was increased by the weekly returns from the government at 10 o'clock. Most traders called these reports fairly favorable for this time of the year but they were not up to the ex- pectations entertained on the short side
 The loss was recovered and replaced by net advance which was finally widened to IS to 25 points.
 Spot accounts were better than they have been, a somewhat improved de- mand being reported both in the eastern and the western belts. Toward the end of the day the market felt offerings from early buyers for long account and also selling which appeared to be on the hedge
 variety and prices fell off almost to the lowest of the day.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York. August 29.-It was curl . ously assumed by the local trade that the Presidents reply to the pope would tend to bring about an immediate peace, therefore the advance today was based on this idea regardless of the years of domination of German thought and character by the present government of which the German peo- pie have been exceedingly proud The rains in southern. central and west ern Texas were assumed to have come too late to do any good, also to be insufficient. On the advance a large line which was bought around 23h cents was liquidated. So great are the contrasts between the condition of the crop in the drouth stricken sections of Texas and the condition of crop else. where throughout the cotton belt that the trade are at sea regarding the bureau report, but on the whole they think it will be bullish.
