that an explosion followed the applica-

Grain and Provisions.

Chicago, Feb. 6-Sharp declines in the wheat market tooG place today owing to 3 considerable extent 70 news of the killing of an American seaman by German submarine gun fire, The fact that shorts had large. ly covered their trades during yes. terday's advance left the market with out one of the usual sources of up- poft and there was no decided influx of buying until the. market had falle,. 3@3 3-4c. Raines ensued, but the bulls were hampored by the prospect that the new submarine attacks ha,i brought war nearer than ever. Open Ing prices, which ranged from 1-2M 2c down, with May at s172@1.73 and July at $1.4701.48, were followed by fall that carried May off to $1..O put later by recOveries which raised May to $1.73.
 Subsequently, 9 material advance resulted from extremely unfayorablc reports regarding the winter crop n Kansas, Nebrasa Oklahoma and Mis- souri but the market afterwards re- acted because of drastic railway en- parSoes east and on account of rum ofS that Germany had declared war on the United States. The close was unsettled 1-4@1c net lower with May at Sl: 'S@ 1.73 1-4 and July at $1.47Q LAT 1-2.
 Scantiness of rural offerings kept I'the corn market relatively strong. Tho weakness of wheat had only d transient effect. After opening un. changed to 3-Sc lower, prices under went slight general setback. but then T material advance all around
