Less Wool Used.

Reports from manufacturers as re-
ceived by the bureau of markets, de-
partment Of agriculture. show that
there was less wool used In February
than at any time since such statistics
have been compiled. The February
consumption amounted to 27,500000
pounds in the grease, compared with
90, 100000 pounds in February of last
year. Strikes which shut down mills
and the inability Of small mills to Sc
cure wool because the wool sold by
the government NJ auction was sold
on cash basis, furnished the reason
for the small February consumption.

CORN TOUCHED HIGH
 FOR THE SEASON ON
 GOOD PEACE NEWS
Oats Were About Balanced, While Provisions Were Down 2c to 35c on the
 Days Trading
By Associated Press

Chicago. June 2s.-Peaee news today made the corn market ascend to the highest prices yet this season. Closing quotations were firm at 1kc to 4c net ad- vance, with July $l. SSdi. .sSlI and Septem- Der S1.SG1.7SA. Oats finished lsc off to Ac up and provisions down 2c to s5c.
 Although business in the corn pit was at an end before the fact was published that the peace conference had received formal notcie Germany would sign the treaty without any condition, traders as rule had assumed throughout the day lat word of such action on thS part of the German delegation was assured be- yond all reasonable douot From nearly the opening of business here knowledge wasE widespread that an extension of time had been flatly refused to the Ger mans and this circumstance was taken to indicate sufficiently the final outcome at Paris. Active buying resulted and no other information than the peace news cut much figure. Reactions were there fore not lasting sort.
 Oats became relatively weak owing to an increase in the visible supply total, Besides nothing was heard of seaboard demand
 Selling on the part Of packers turned the provision market down grade. Initial strength due to peace news was thus more than offset.

New Orleans Cotton.
By Associated Press

By Associated pTess
 New Orleans. June 23.-Only moder- ate activity was caused in cotton to- day by the news of Germans decision to sign the peace treaty and advances were not very wide consideraing the importance of the event. The opening was higher and the improvement con- tinued until the trading months were 49 to S5 points up, but here very heavy liquidation came upon the market, to- gether with considerable short sell ing, the latter evidently being. mainly inspired by the labor troubles in the Lancashire spinning district, although there was also some selling on the the- ory that peace had been discounted and that the market was ripe for a reac- tion.
 Following the first bulge the mar ket became quiet and the ring ab- sorbed offerings less easily. Toward noon it softened and July lost all of it's advance and went IS points under the closing quotations of Saturday. The new crop months at their lowest still stood fl to 13 points higher than Sat urday's close. Later in the day the tone again became steady, partly be- cause of expectations that any moment the news that Germany had signed would be heard and partly because of the continued showery weather over the belt. A fairly stiff recovery occurred so that last prices were at net gains for the day 34 to 7S points.

R, D. Burgers Letters

New Orleans. June 23,-In response to press reports that Germany voted to sign the peace treaty, market scored sharp advance this morning but, subsequently, declining, owing to strike of half million cotton mill hands in the I.anca- = shire district of England and because ot the fear that Germany would not sign the treaty, except under reservation.
 The time limit for the enemy apparently expired at 12~noon. local time which is ' D. m continental time, as press advices are to tbe effect that the request for AS hours further time by the enemy has been denied. Apparently it is likely that after nearly five years, peace has beer restored to the world, and w>>le the com ing of same has been partly discounted, it's realization, we think, has yet to be felt by the trade.
 Cotton goods continue firm. with ris- ing tendency with mills refusing con- siderable business for fall delivery as result of being heavily booked.
 The strength of the cotton goods mar kets is attributed to the prosperous con dition of the agricultural sections of the United States and an increased demand for goods in this country for foreign ac- count. H. and B. Beer.

New Orleans, June S3.-The decision by Germany to sign the peace treaty created less of a sensation in the cotton market than the trading public expected would attend the outcome of the political crisis which has prevailed since Germany was forced into corner. The opening was active and excited, and there was a strong rise for while, but at a level i9 to S5 points higher than the close of last week. when very heavy liquidation came upon the market along with much short selling and wide reaction ensued, The reaction persisted until July was 15 points under the close of Saturday and the new crop months were but Il to 1s points above.
