TWO CHANGES IN
TERMS Of PEACE
ARE CONSIDERE
German Proposal for Flat Pay
nlent of Hundred Billion
Marks Favored and PIebis-
cite in SiIeSia Probable,


Paris, June 1.-Two changes in the
German peace terms, one territorial
and the other financial, are being
considered by the council of four, it
became known today.
The financial question is the posi-
bility of the acceptance of the German
proposal to pay an indemnity of 1907
GOO, 100000 marks. which would in
volve dissolution of the allied finan-
cial commission to which the Ger
mans strongly object. 1t is under
stood that this proposal has strong
support in certain quarters.
The second proposal is for a plebis-
cite in Silesia in order to guarantee
to Germany a coal supply from the
Silesian mines.
Experts of the United States France,
Great Britain and Italy, on the invita-
ton of the American peace commits
sioners are expected to meet as soon
as possible to exchange views regard
ing the answer to the German counter
proposals.
President Wilson conferred today
with the American commissioners and
experts. Their role will be that of
mediators.
Great Britain favors a number of
concessions, while France remains
firm in her stand to make no con-
cessions.
1t is believed that as a result OF
the steps taken today the reply to the
German proposals will be ready with
in forty-eight hours.
1t is understood that the Americans
are not adverse to minor concessions,
but not to the extent favored by the
British.

Washington. June 3.-Discussion of
trade conditions in Latin American
countries with addresses by Secretary
RedfieId and Ambassador Tudela of
Peru were the outstanding features of
today's sessions of the Pan-American
Commercial congress meeting at the
Pan-American Union. Delegates to
the congress expressed the belief that
the discussions Of commerce, centering
on methods of building up trade be-
tween the United States and the Latin
American nations and between the
countries of Central and South Amer
lea, would be productive of much
good.
Secretary Redfied informed the
congress he had suggested to the
shipping board the establishment of
two steamship routes to South Amer
lea, one touching northern ports, and
the other southern ports of the con-
tinent. The commerce secretary told
the Latin-American representatives
that unless the United States took
steps to serve them their countries
would fail; unless they served the
United States this country would fail
and unless both serve the world, both
would fail.
Development of commerce between
the United States and the Latin.

della said, must be brought about

New York, July 17.-The rains that
covered the eastern belt this morning
were regarded as favorable. There
have been a number of complaints OF
dry weather in the Carolinas recently,
and the market in consequence de-
veloped further weakness on the rains,
declining to % points on frs trans

points higher.
Liverpool traded both ways. Local
selling was quite active and the South
sold hedges. Other bearish influences
affecting the early market were poor
cables, labor troubles in England, the
shipping strike here and improved
Texas crop reports.
The market was feverish throughout
the first hour. There was some ner-
vousness over the rains reported in the
Carolinas, but reports concerning their
effects were conflicting and at times
selling on the belief of an improving
crop prospect and the weakness of for

Chicago, July 17.-Buying of corn

was discouraged today by the failure of
the weather map to disclose the exist
ence of the high temperatures forecast
yesterday. Further losses in foreign
exchange. an early break in hogs. con-
tinued favorable crop advices and OK
pectations of larger shipments from Ar
gentina and the undertone of the mar
ket was depressed.
The influences mentioned led to gen
eral liquidation, but most of the pres
sure came from commission houses. The
latter had stuff for sale on every rally,
and there was a marked falling off in
the demand from outsiders. Longs
were uneasy over the exchange situa-
ton, and shippers declared that present
quotations made export business vir-
tualiy impossible.
Reports on the condition of new corn
in Argentina indicated that it was un-
favorable because of the wet weather,
the cereal having a high moisture con
tent.
Heavy selling by commission houses
and cash interests, due to better wealth =
er and the decentralization in foreign
exchange, broke the market for oats,
after it had moved into new high ground
for the season early.
Offerings from the country, particu-
larly Of old grain were liberal, and the
outlook for export business was poor
owing to the exchange situation. Ship
ments of oats from Argentina for the
week were estimated at 10000 bush
els, against 1906 bushels last year.
