president of the Chicago Board OF
Trade, that the exchange should re-
instate the rule limiting the amount
OF open tradesin corn for any one
interest or individual to 100000

signed to prevent undue speculation.
If the Chicago board complies
with this suggestion, Mr.. Barnes

food administration, that further
regulation may not be necessary"

Gates. Of the Chicago Board Of
Trade, in New York, where he had
conferred with Julius Barnes, fed
eral wheat director, the latters
recommendation to limit open
trades in corn on the board to 200,-
600 bushels for any one individual
account, was not received by brok-
ers with surprise, especially in view
of recent broad fluctuations in corn,
and Mr.. Barnes recent appearance
here, warning against speculation
in flour and allied commodities. i
1t was generally believed by trad.
ers that the recommendation would
be adopted. A slight curtailment in

exchange prices are an excellent
barometer. They usually afford the
most reliable forecast of future con-
ditions. For example, months be-
fore the severe panic of 1873, prices
began to fall on the stock exchange.
The reason for the recent develop
ments in the price of many securi-
ties is the unbounded confidence Of
investors in future prosperity Of the
country-a feeling that the United
States now occupies stronger po-
sition financially than ever before,
one of the reasons having to do with
the immediate future prosperity of
enormous crops of which 10 have

There is evidently an entire con-
hdence that nothing will prevent an
early peace. If Germany fails to
agree to a treaty or Japan or Italy

ton, there will no doubt be re-
cessiou, but evidently this is not ex-
pected.
