CORN TAKES BIG JUMP
ON HOT-WAVE DAMAGE
Market Prices Advance Notwith-
standing Stunning Character Of
Austrian Defeat.

CHICAGO. June 29.-Crop damage,
both in the plains states and east OF
Chicago, together with further men
ace from a new hot wave, brought a
big jump in corn prices this week,
notwithstanding temporary setback,
due to the stunning character of the
Austrian defeat. Compared with a
week ago, the market this morning
was up An to 6A a bushel. Net
changes in oats varied from A de-
cline to 1c advance. Provisions rose
sic to s110.
Indiana. Michigan and Ohio frost re-
ports gave the initial upward impetus
to the corn market, but as the mag
nitude of the Austrian reverse became
more and more evident the bears
plunged heavily in selling. Then came
government advices showing actual
damage from the frosts east of Chi
cago and simultaneously that the dry
hot weather on the plains had also
caused harm. Unexpected continu-
ance of severe heat in the southwest
kept the market on the ascent during
succeeding days, especially as further
normal heat threatening to spread
and with anxiety prevalent as to the
smallness of the corn supply available
for delivery in July.
Hedging sales and the slowness OF
eastern demand made oats relatively
weak.
Provisions went upgrade. owing to
government buying and the strength
of corn and hogs.

TRADE CONDITIONS.

NEW York, June 29.-Dunn's review
of the weeks trading says:
While business interests have been
quick to adapt themselves to the fire.
ouent and radical economic changes
Of the war period, hesitation and eau
ton not unnaturally prevail in many
quarters, and forward projects are
being confined within still closer
limits. Such a condition has resulted
not alone from doubts as to future
readjustments. but also from a dis
position to await moro exact knoWl-
edge of governmental necessities and
the steadily increasing scarcity OF
supplies places tighter restrictions on
ordinary commitments.
Where price regulations are In
prospect and transactions subject to
later revision. as in textiles. there is
disinclination among buyers and
sellers alike to operate extensively,
even were 1t possible to do so, and
the removal for another three months
of price uncertainty in iron and steel
has not materially stimulated regular
demands. which have been brought
more completely under official super
vision.
There Is not an industry or trade
of Importance. in fact. that Is not
now dominated by the government,
and 1t is no longer a question Of how
much civilian business IL Offering,
but OF how much may be consum-
mated without interference with the
pressing federal requirements.

AMERICAN AID TO RUSSIA :

tions in Russia, who will carry to

today to be under discussion. Pub
lication Of the real nature of tho as
sistance to be offered the chaotic ma
tion disposed of reports that q po-
litical or diplomatic mission would be
sent.
German aggression will be met not
by an attempt to organize Russia in
a political or military way. but by the
re-establishment of business order.
Full details of the plan will not be
given out, officials said, for to do SO
would only subject the plan to Ger
man opposition and chicanery.
1t is known, however, the govern
ment. upon receipt Of recommenda-
tions of the mission, will license free
ly whatever is needed for export.
Vessels will be provided probably for
shipment of goods to Siberian ports.
The American Red Cross, through the
sending of relief supplies. is counted
upon to demonstrate the friendly
feeling of the American people to-
ward Russian people.
Emphasis was given that no mill
tary status viii be given the mission,
although police protection likely Will
be afforded. The only official aspect
given the mission probably will be
the assistance of United States con-
suls there.

NEW YORK, June 29.-Today's mar

influence as yesterdays News from

act and actuality, and the street was
p a stump on what has transpired

favorable tenor and would have been
sufficient to cause an improvement in

:ainty over other matters.

Of themselves than any other group.

sions being in order in the oils and
slight fractional breaks were noted
in some of the steels.
The session was of the most neg
ugent character and the developments

The disastrous defeat of the Aus

and new railroad financing, includ-
ing the extension of maturing Balti-
more and Ohio notes and an offering
of $20,000.000 Union Pacific notes on
terms which bespoke the greater
cost of capital.
Many railroad reports were sub

favorable, but the recent frosts over
various agricultural sections are be-
