Chicago. Sept 27.-Armistice pro-
posals by Bulgaria sent the corn mar
ket sharply downward today. General
selling resulted from reports of the
new peace move and there was a broad
active market. Some of the unloading
was of an automatic stop-loss char
acter. Opening prices, which were. Is

at sl.45h to Sl.46 and November at
Sl.42a to Sl43l4, were followed by
slight rally and then by a decided
fresh break.
Altho numerous small rallies took
place they did not alter the prevailing
bearish sentiment inaSmuch as the only
notable buying support came from prof
il taking shorts. The close was nervous.

tober at s1.42h to s1.42& and Novsp-
Der at Sl.40l2 to s1.405s.
Oats.
Oats reflected the weakness OF corn.
Changes in oatn, however, were COM
paratively slight. After opening II to
a cent lower. with October at 73Is to

tendency to sag.
Provisions.
Higher prices for hogs lifted provis-
ions.
Subsequently the break in corn in
duced some selling and wiped out al

ARMY WILL PROBE
FILM SHOWING TANKS
Seek Information as to How
Hearst Company Got
Pictures
Washington, June 25.

w JUNE
Al the instance of the committee of
public information. the Acting Chief of
Ordnance of the Army and the Office of
Military Intelligence have ordered an
investigation into the circumstances un-
der which the Hearst-Pathe Company
obtained permission to exhibit moving
pictures of American tanks in action
II was said at the office of the COM
mittee on public information that the
exhibition of the films had not been
censored and sanctioned by the COM
mittee.
The committees action was an out
come of the charges made last night
by r. II Cochrane, vice president of
the Universal Film Company. that the
committee on public information was
under the influence of William r.
Hearst, and that through this influence
the Hearst -Pathe tank pictures were
permitted to be exhibited, while the
Universal film, entitled The Yanks Are
Coming" was denied the right to be
shown, as advertised in the Broadway
Theatre last night.
George Creel. the chairman, and other
officials of tho committee on public in
formatin denied that they had sane
toned the exhibition of the tank pic
lures of the Hearst-Pathe Company.
They said that inquiries made on the
basis of Mr.. Cochrane's charge devel-
oped that a captain and a second lieu
tenant of the tank corps at Gettysburg
had given permission to the Hearst
Pathe Company to take and exhibit the
tank film, contrary to the understand
ing with moving picture concerns that
no war films should be exhibited with
out the committees sanction. The in
vestigation instituted by the War De-
