that the market was bombarded through
out the session by a flood of bearish
runors which, although unconfirmed,
brought buying much OF the time to a
nearly complete halt. In addition TO the
unrestrained gossip concerning the Ger

downward course of prices was plainly
more or less affected by a statement that

The renewed active demand for the So

large scale and prices fiuctuated over

WAR NEWS AFFECTS
PRICES FOR CORN
Conflicting Reports on Export
Business Also FACTOR in
Changes.
GRAIN WEAK IN MARKET
Movement of New Crop and
Export Plans Are Prob
lens to BE Solved.

The wide variations In the corn mar
ket this week hive been Influenced by
the war news on one hand. conflicting
reports regarding export business and to
a large extent by statements credited TO
the secretary OF the Chicago Board of
Trade. These statements were such as
to have n marked influence and came in
for considerable criticism. The statement
that tho Grain Corporation was In the
market for export corn was not new
the Grain Corporation had been buying
for some time. This report scared the
shorts on Monday and on Wednesday
the statement that the buying did not
extend to futures, but was only for cash.
seemed to have an equally reverse effect,
particularly as the war news was dis
tinctly favorable. The export price on
corn was not changed during the gyra-
tons OF the market. All grain was
weak at the close last night. with Anal
prices at the low Of the day.
The question of the movement of the
new crop OF corn and the export pro-
gramme is being vary carefully con-
sidered. The statement from Herbert
Hoover recently to the effect that de-
mand from Gen. PershinS for ships for
war material meant a curtailment OF the
tonnage programme Is expected to affect
the export movement of all grain for
some weeks This, however. Is not
believed to mean that the total pro-
gr,nme for the year will be materially
changed. but that larger movement OF
all kinds of grain will occur later. as
the fact that the shipments are delayed
will not mean that the needs OF the AL.
lies or neutrais are any less. but simply
that they will for the time being live
on stocks in hand or in transit
1t is not possible TO spare tonnage &c
go to the Far East or to any large ex-
tent to the Argentine, and the more the
tonnage Is held up the more necessary
it will be to handle the grlip from NORTH
America. With, the advent of colder
weather the question OF the keeping
quality Of all the grain will be greatly
simplified and there will be no reason
for apprehension regarding the new
corn unless the winter should be partic'
ularly mild. The conditions for curing
the crop have been ideal.
The Price Current said yesterday thai
weather conditions hid bee1 excellen
for drying the crop out. with The bes
prospects in the surplus States. The ex
port programme announced some time
ago for the allied requirements will un
doubtedly be carried out, although tenn
porarily the movement may be delayed
