CORN PRICES DOWN
ON TALK OF PEACE
Sharp Recessions Occur in Mar
ket After Quotations Score
Good Gains
CHICAGO. Sept. IA.

CHICAGO Sept. IA.
Reports about new steps toward peace
started a selling movement in the corn mar
ket today and sent prices down rather
sharply after they had scored a good gain.
First quotations were lower on fresh offer
ings, due to clearing weather and more nor
NAL temperatures in the belt. This decline
was short-lived. however, because of impor-
tant local specr.ative buying of May.
There were some complaints OF damage
by the recent frosts. but the purchasing
appeared TO be based more particularly on
rumors that maximum prices would he
marked up. Liquidation was induced by
press cables that Germany's answer to
Pope Benedict had been forwarded to Rome
and that II contained concrete proposals
and the advance was lost. There was in
nuential buying on the break and the close
was well above the bottom. The cash situa
ton lacked snap and sentiment was less
bullish. Assertions of freer frst-hand Of
ferings made prices in the sample crowd
easier
No. mixed was s2.l6@21sia. against
s221 d2.22 yesterday. and No. yellow
s2l7@2,2O, compared with s2.22 V
yesterday. Exports from the United States
for the week were 442, 260 bushels, and for
the season they amounted to 6.Sl6.s6I
bushels, against 14795.470 bushels year
ago. Shipments from Argentina for the
week were 369 900 bushels. against 1884.
900 bushels last year. The market at
Liverpool was firm.
The high on December corn was S1.21 u;
the low s1.1sk and the close S1.1S7s a
1.1Sa. against s1.20 at the end yester-
day: the best on May was S1.19, the bottom
sI15ai and the final s1.16% q1.l6}a,
against sl.17s yesterdays last price.
There also was setback from the top
in oats after the market had moved up on
excellent buying. Longs took profits and 1t
was said exporters had withdrawn. There
was heavy buying on September and the
stability of that position attracted general
attention. 1t was declared that no manip-
ulation in the month would be permitted
and. II attempted. trading in it would he
stopped. The country is not selling freely,
in spite of the fact that the weather was
good for the movement. The market at
Liverpool was steady. Shipments from
Argentina for the week were 10000
bushels, against 1.1S0,000 bushels a year
ago

WAR TAX CONFEREES
SPLIT ON THREE POINTS
BIZ a Star Corrcapordent

WASHINGTON, Sept 14.-In the first
conference of three hours on the war rev.
enue bill there seemed to be three points OF
radical difference between the House and
Senate conferees, These were the income,
war profits tax and second-class mail Sec
ton.
Recognizing that these matters would
take a long time to dispose of, the conferees
passed them over and the discussion showed
unanimity on all other points
The bitterest fight will be waged On the
second-class mail provision. with the Sem
ate conferees insisting on no Increase and
all but one member of the five House con-
ferees demanding the zone system.
At this time only pressure from President
Wilson will preven; n radical change In the
second-class mail section. Unless the in
fiuence of the White House Is exerted 1t Is
likely that this section of the bill will cause
a prolonged disagreement.

COTTON DECLINES
ON PROFIT-TAKING
Bullish Spot Advices, Unsettled
Weather and Improved News
From Russia Cause Reaction

NEW YORK, Sept ll.--Proht-takin
caused a reaction in cotton today after
talk about peace, improved news from
Russia, unsettled weather in the South
and bullish spot advices had made the
market strong following lower prices In
the early trading. Western interests and
Wall street were reported to be on the
buying side. Shorts covered actively. The
Census Bureaus report on the consumption
of the staple last month, made public at
the beginning of business, did not have
much influence
Renewed covering of the near posi-
tions caused opening advances this morn
ing which, however, were not shared by
the later deliveries Leading spot interests
were large sellers of all deliveries that
about offset moderate Liverpool buying
and the bullish August consumption figure.
Fears of heavy general rains in the east
ern belt started more active covering
movement during the morning. October
contracts sold up from zoos to 201i. while
January advanced from 1867 to 20.06 or
about nineteen to twenty points above last
nights closing figure.
The eastern belt forecast was for wet
weather, and wire from Charleston said
that small naval boats were putting In
there owing to a storm of considerable
intensity heading in that direction. Rains
would delay the movement, and If heavy,
might cause shedding or damage TO the
grade.

FOREIGN EXCHANGE

NEW YORK, Sept. 1.-THE foreign ex.
change market continued to be featured
by the strength of rubles The first quo
tation for cables was 16, a gain of u cent
and later purchases brought the rate up to
II. AS has been stated the large short
interest in rubles began covering at 11&
for cables An interesting development this
morning also was a renewal of strength
in Scandinavian exchanges. There was no
particular explanation for this advance
Guiders were strong and French exchange
was fairly steady:
Quotations were:

ness. sold at the high figure of the rally at
II for cables and l6& for checks French
exchange improved a centime to 5.77la for
cables and 5.7sh for checks. Italian ex-
change rose sharply to 7.73 for cables and
7.74 for checks, compared with 7.s0 for
cables and 7.81 for checks at the opening.
scandinavian exchanges held strong, with
out quotable changes from the earlier re-
ported figures.
In the later dealings rubles shaded off
from the best figures of the rally on real
izng of profits on the good turn from IL
at the bottom to II. Ruble cables declined
to 16A and checks to 16. The rise has had
an ephemeral appearance thus far. but any

obviously be quickly reflected in the ex-
change and sympathetcally to the Entente

pullet, laying by September 1. should be

TO the purity Of the breed. The question
was recently put before the poultry experts
because of requests made by people for
recommendations for good hens for winter

the calculations was the cost of feed
