FROST DUE IN BELT
 ST|FFENS UP CORN Oats Trend Same Way On Export Activity-Few
 Pork Offerings

Chicago. September 19.-Frost predic- tions today made corn higher. Prices closed unsettled % off to ss advance with October 152sz to 152%. and November 14yM to 149M. Oats finished 4 to ss0l1h up. and provisions varying from 42c decline to a rise of 55c.
 Likelihood that frost would extend over a wider area than heretofore, gave the bulls in corn decidedly the advantage until the last hour. Then German talk Of an armistice led to something of a reaction. Belief that corn in cars on track here would be declared available Tor delivery on September contracts tended also to ease the market after mid day. Nervousness regarding possible ser- lous damage by frost remained in evil dence, however. as the Iowa state re- port said 40 per cent of the crop was not yet out Of danger.
 Oats were strengthened by signs of activity on the part of export interests. Advances, though, brought about an in- crease of country offerings to arrive
 Scarcity of offerings led to a sharp upturn in the value of pork Lard and ribs, on the contrary, went down grade with hogs.

NARROW MOVEMENT
 OF POPULAR SHARES
Decreased Activity in Steels, Which Moved Within
 Very Narrow Limits

New York, September 19,.-Absence of any special influence except in iso- hated instances made trading in the stock market today of a wholly per- functory character. The narrow movement of the more popular trad ing shares was an indication of the general dullness and the days aggre- gate volume was equivalent to less than an hours overturn in fairly
 active market. The ystagnaney was relieved only by the strength exhibited by few individual stocks, and in some instances this improvement was modified by intermittent profit talk ling.
 Stocks which were at the forefront during the upward turn of yesterday found renewed support at intervals to- Iday and the general market suggest ed confidence in a gradual clearing up ' of the influences which have held bull ish initiative in restraint. Decreased activity in the steels, which fluetuated within narrow limits, was attributed to disposition to await the outcome of the Washington conference, at which an appeal was presented for price increases Especial S1i ChS LII WUS lHdHlleSleu III Liie SuiP- pings, notably Atlantic Gulf, which ad- vanced points to 106 on revived re- ports of new combination of maritime interests. Buying of American Su-
 matra Tobacco carried the price of that stock up 3 points.
 Profit taking brought about sharp recessions in the oil group after an early period of strength. Monetary conditions were unaltered. Call loans were freely made at per cent but time funds were unavailable, business consisting entirely of paying off maturities.
 Weakness developed again in ex- change rates on some of the neutral countries. Quotations for Swiss and Spanish bills fell sharply but higher figures ruled for Dutch drafts.

an extensive Wall Street and western short interest has been created. One of the rumors was that the price would be fixed within a day or two. We be- lieve if the price is fixed that because of the short crop this season, the fact that each bale going abroad now pays part of our expenses abroad; that the spinners are making handsome profits at present prices, that the price will be above the basis upon which they are now selling goods to the government. We had similar outbreak of price fix ing last spring when negotiating with spinners. Well informed spinners have been buying on scale past few days. But the tendency of these rumors is to check all buying. Those who are bear ish regard this discussion by the war in- dustres board to be of valuable as- sstance in bringing out cotton for sale.
