CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET.

Chicago, March S.-Correct anticipa- tions that the government report on farm reserves would pfove bearish tend- ed today to weaken the wheat market in the late dealings. Prices closed unsettled at the same as yesterdays finish to 1 3-4e clover, with March $1.s6 to $1.66 1-4 and May $1.59 to $1.5S 1-4. Corn lost s-s to 1-2@ 52sc, and oats 14 to S-s@1-2c In provisions the outcome varied from 1-c dec1ire to Sc advance.
 Wheat traders displayed unusual cau- tion until the last hour, when many veered to the assumption that the amount of wheat held on farms would prove to be larger than had been generally esti- mated. Most of the selling pressure came from holder of March contracts, who de- sired to substitute the May delivery, No other influence than the government re- port attracted any special attention ex- cept rainy weather which at the open- ing counted somewhat against the bulls Developments regarding Germany and the allies were practically ignored.
 Corn and oats were governed by the action of wheat
 Provisions averaged higher with hoes Announcement of changes in labor con ditions at the packing houses had Ae an preciable effect on the market

FEW REMARKS FROM
 PIONEER MANAGEMENT

ID the Sports Editor: I would like to explain through your paper why the Pi- oneArs will not play the Morse MlllS in Putnam again. Early in the season MT. Jarvis (the Morse Mills manager) and I arranged a three-game series. The first game was played in Putnam in which we were defeated by foul in the last minute of play the score being 27 to 2e. The second game was played in Jevett City where we swamped them by the overwhelming score of 54 to 22. The third game was supposed to be played on a neutral floor. but we cheFrfully con- s.nted -to play them in St, Jean's hall Putnam (their home hoor) where we de- feated them in the deciding game Of the series. 34 to 22.
 MT. Jarvis knowing we were his best drawing card got us up to Putnam again. This time we were defeated. Putnam having an altogether different linetrp, including three Putnam Hlgn players. namely, Durand, Spencer and Williams. In this game we received an rwful raw deal. but l don't claim this as an alibi. as we can take beating and lake a good one and come home smllns also. However yesterday received word from Mir. Jarvis wanting to know when NC were going to play that deciding game He also stated he wanted il played on a neutral floor, the Putnam High school gym. Can you imagine thai soor being neutral when he has three high school players in his lineup. l guess Mir. Jarvis doesn't know what the worf neutral really does mean. Nevertheless will state that we well play Putnam my time on a neutral floor tnot in Put aaul) for a side bet of fifty dollars

PREPARING FOR INTERNAT'L
 MOTORBOAT RACES

New York, Mar. S-Preparations for holding the international motorboat races for the Harmsworth trophy in this country during the coming sum- mer already are under way. The chal- lenge received from the Royal Motor Yacht club of England is the first of several expected in an effort to regain the trophy won from British motor- boats by Gar Wood. of Detroit, off the Isle of Wight last August.
 Commodore Judson stated today that the Motor Boat Club of America is empowered to make all arrangement for the race ,and to select the course over which the boats shall compete. He is in favor of holding the races on Lake St. Clair, if. the Detroit club wishes to hold them there, because De troit yacht men brought the cup back to this country. Just who the British challengers are will not be known un- til further communications are receiv- ed from the other side.

FIHhhlCcI;iL AND COMMERCIAL
HARRIET WAS PROFESSIONAL.

New York, March S.-In the further absence of helpful or constructive factors at home or abroad, today's stock market was again largely Influenced by profes- sional interests whose operations effected additional impairment of prices.
 The more acute phases of the European situation were reflected in the foreign exchange market. Remittances to Lon don. Paris and most other continental points yielded more or less sharply to eX- tensive offerings, partly of speculative character.
 Scandinavian exchanges were especial ly depressed for time but rallied sub- stantially later, although it is believed that those countries are most Vitally ln- terested commercially in the invasion Of Germany by the lalies.
 Conditions affecting home markets af- forded little ground for encouragement. Further wage cuts by the railroads, mo- tably New York Centra1 were accompa-
 nied by similar action on the part ot the
 western packers. Railroads as we'll as
 industrial companies confirmed to report reduced earnings.
 Trading centered in the usual leaders namely, oils, steels shippings, chemicals and several of the better known rails, in which extreme losses ran from one to four points, a few unimportant specialties trailing along at similar recessions. In the final dealings shorts found it ad- visable to cover in Atlantic Gulf, Mexican Petroleum, Crucible Steel and General Asphalt, many issues making up the greater part of their losses. Sales amounted to 900 shares.
 Call money held at per cent. through out the session. regardless of reports that interior banks had added very largely to | local reserves. Equal firmness was shown | by time funds, commercial paper and | bank acceptances. Dulmess was the striking feature of the
 bond market, dealings in that quarter being unusually small. Liberty 1-2s | made a new low quotation at 90.72, others showing irregularity. Total sales I (par value) $7,S75, 900.

ALEXANDER TAKES
OATH TOMORROW
Young Ruler Of JugosIavia
Not Blamed for His Long
Stay in Paris.
By the Associated Press.

BELGRADE. November fixing
Alexander will take the oath Of Office
as ruler of Jugoslavia tomorrow.
Since his arrival here, he has resumed
active direction of affairs. Reports
that there is a proba bility Of change
in the occupant Of the throne are re-
Earded in this city as absolutely un-
founded.
The prolonged stay in Paris Of King
Alexander. after the death of his
father, King Peter. was the subject Of
much comment. but it would appear
that the young monarch had two eX-
cellent reasons for delaying his return
tc Belgrade.
Reasons for stunning Belgrade.
The first was the necessity for quiet
and rest after an, operation performed
upon him during his illness early in
July. The second was his desire to
bring to a happy conclusion his court
slip of Princess Sophie. second daugh-
ter of Prince Emmanuel, Duke OF
vendome and of Alencon, a member
Of the Bourbon Orleans family. 1t ap-
pears at present that this courtship
has been broken Off because of de-
ligious differences and the reluctance
OF Princess Sophie to live in Belgrade.
1t is said i'll political circles that
Alexander before consenting to return
to Belgrade demanded from the gov
ernment. among other things, certain
guarantees regarding his ciFil list and
revision Of the constitution which
would give a larger measure of au-
tonomy to provinces acquired as a re-
suit of the world war.
Reports Are Denied
These reports, however. are denied
by the government. Residents OF
Jugoslavia put no credence in sug-
gestions that Alexander delayed his
return because he feared terrorist
plots. They point out that he was a
brave soldier and is physically un-
afraid
His health continues good and he
rides freely about the city.
