will present 10 Secretary Lansing to-
morrow his credentials from President
Carranza authorizing him to treat with

long conference here to-day between
oil drillers representing the striking oil
fields workers of the Louisiana and
Texas Gulf Coast, negotiations were
broken off when the workers insisted

recognition Of the union.
The operators offered an agreement,
to be signed by themselves ard strik-
ers' representatives, obligating the call
ing off Immediately of the strike and
agreeing that the operators would en-
deavor TO standardize the wage scale
and that the men return to work un-
der the same terms as existed before
the strike. The strikers refused TO
agree 10 the contract.

COrn.-The new move on the part
Of the Food Administration in its eff
forts toward bringing about a more
liberal movement Of corn from the
farms which will go into effect on
December 10, includes an embargo
against all shipments of corn and
oats from west Of the Eastern Illinois
line and north of the Ohio and Po-
tomac Rivers. Eastern roads are also
ordered to send 10000 freight cars into
the Western grain belt and Western
roads were ordered to give grain ship
ments preference. This seemed TO be
a more definite arrangement than had
heretofore been propOsediand strength
ened the opinion that corn viii be NOV
ing more freely in the near future.
But while trade was disposed 10 look

the new plan, sellers were cautious.

Toward the close, however, selling be-
came more general and final quotations

cash position in the West was irreg-

others were lower, and there was lit
