MARKETS
CORN PRICES
ON UP TREND

Chicago, Aug. 15.-Notwithstandin
that further rains eased the corn mar
ket at the opening today, prices soon
scored a material advance. Scarcity
of offerings formed the immediate
reason for the development of
strength. Increasing seriousness of
crop damage reports tended to make
sellers cautious. Initial quotations,
which varied from the same as yes
terday's finish to Is cent lower, with
S1.62A to S1.62%, were followed by a
decided Upturn all around, -
Firmness in oats resulted from the
advance Of corn. Trade lacked vol
higher, with September 68% to 685s,
the market scored slight general
gains.
Business in provisions was of only
a scattered sort. Price changes were
unimportant.

mining initiative still remains with
those who have hitherto been the
masters of Germany. Feeling that
tho whole peace Of the world de-
pends now on plain speaking and
straightforward action, the President
deems it his duty to say without any
attempt to soften what may seem
harsh words, that the nations of the
world do not and cannot trust the
words of those who have hitherto been
the masters Of German policy and to
point out once more that in concluding
peace and attempting to undo the in
finite injuries and injustices Of this
war the Government Of the United
states cannot deal with any but verita-
ole representatives Of the German
people who have been assured of a
genuine constitutional standing as the
real rulers Of Germany. If it must
deal with the military masters and the
monarchica! autocrats Of Germany
now, or if ii is likely to have TO deal
with them later in regard to the inter
