ARM|STICE RUMOR
RUNS GRAIN DOWN
Rapid Gains of Thursday
Quickly Lost With
Talk of Peace.

CHICAGO, Aug. 6.---Reports con-
strued as favorable TO an armistice
led to quick downturn in the wheat
market today after yesterdays ad-
vance. The market closed weak,
LIZ to &c net lower. Corn finished
l-2c off to 3-4c up. Oats un-
changed to 3sc higher and provis-
ions down 80 to $3.50.
At first the strain oyer the ex-
pected clash carried the December
delivery of wheat up as much as Sc.
Then the tenor OF European advices
changed. and there was much hur-
ried selling out of wheat holdings.
The ensuing break In prices reached
an extreme OF l2c from the top level
OF the day, and the close was at
virtually the bottom figures reached.
