Warsaw, Sept. 6.-Protest to the

GRAIN PRICES LIouiDATED.

Chicago. Sept 6.-The grain trade
realizes that, despite the advance In
gasolene prices, n period of COM
modities price reduction Is getting,
into full swing Of very uncertain
duration, and extent, but inclines to
the theory that soil products. which
began to lead the liquidation process
sion months ago. have had their fair
share Of punishment for the present.
This theory is based upon strong
European demand. slow distribution
by railroads and the producers hold
Ing JNood. The wheat position ap-
pears better than that of other
cereals. Corn andfbarley invite more
attack than oats and rye. Whether
the producers will win by unusual
conservation at this season depends
largely upon the banks anNthe rail-
roads. Bankers have committed them
selves to the policy Of strengthening
their cash position and railroad
managers are making strenuous ef-
forts to improve service. The coun-
try bank. however, can not set the
brakes too suddenly or too vigorous
ly on its former friends. and the rail-
roads have long way to travel be-
fore they can adequately take care
OF rural requirements.
