Uncertainty In regard to armistice
conditions for Germany led to numerous
bulges and breaks in the value OF corn.
but the price changes were kept within

upward tendency OF the market became
more pronounced. Opinion appeared 10
prevail that bearish developments con-
corning the war had been discounted
sufficiently for the time being. and this
view was borne out by the fact that the
bulletins which told OF the complete
withdrawal Of Turkey as a combatant
had only temporary weakening lnflu-
ence. Reports. however, that Austria
had applied direct for terms from the
Italian commanding General were not at
hand here until after the close. During
