GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.

Chicago, Oct. 11.-Fresh decline in
the price Of corn took place today,
chiefly as a resulte of favorable wealth
er for conditioning the new crop.
There were also reports that the vol
ume Of rural offerings had increased.
Besides weakness in hog values
counted as a bearish factor. Opening
prices which varied from the same as
yesterdays finish to gao lower, with
December 1922 3-s to 1.22 SIS. and
May $1.21 to. 1.21 SIS, were followed
by a moderate setback all around,
and then something Of a rally.
Oats sagged with corn. After open
ing unchanged to 1-8c higher, includ-
ing December at 20 1-2c, the market
underwent a general decline.
Provisions were dull and weak. The
downward tendency of corn and hogs
appeared to intimidate buyers.
Week end adjustments helped to
make the market firm at the last.
Evening up of. trades so as to be
prepared for the double holiday ahead
rallied the market a little in the late
dealings. The close was unsettled, Ia
to 3-8 cen net lower, with December
1922 1-2 to 1872 So and May 1.21 to
1.21 is.

THE MARKET TREND
STOCKS

Injured to shock Wall street refused
to recognize the coal strike as a major
factor in it's operations, just as 1t did
the steel strike. The market, dis
counting the future, displays deep
rooted confidence in the sOundness Of
conditions and the sanity, stability,
and industry of the American people.
Brokers have awaited ratification Of
the peace treaty without long delay.
Yet. despite this confidence and an
aggressive list it has been been recOg-
nized that prices must decline. They
cannot move indefinitely upward. In
many cases they are higher than the
phenomenally high point of 1916. Re-
action is inevitable.
The money situation has created
much uneasiness. The New York Fed
eral Reserve banks action in increas-
ing discount rates will tend to re-
strict the supply of money available
for speculation. although it is not con-
sidered drastic. Gall rates have been
very erratic. Bank loans have been
distended with reserves at low point.
Simultaneous with this condition a
broad advance. is hardly probable. If
history repeats itself. Nevertheless,
seat on the exchange sold recently
for 100000, breaking all records.

Business has shown remarkable
stability during n coal strike which
might be expected to shake it's very
foundations and gave promise of pro-
ducing industrial stagnatiOn as the
sole alternative to government inter-
ventiOn. Retail trade has not been
seriously affected except at few coal

communities like New York city. The

"The Limit and That Public's In-
terests Must Be Supreme.

publicly proclaimed warning that
a coal strike now would be unlawful.

while war lasts the Government Is
clothed with authority to do things
which it has as yet no law for doing
in time of peace.
