BETTER CROP NEWS
SENDS WHEAT DOWN
Prices Lower as Fear of Rust
Subsides-Corn Irregular,
Oats Easier.

CHICAGO, July 14.--Better prospects
for escape from black rust had much to
do to-day with bringing about price de-
clines in the wheat market. The close
was weak. / al sc. net lower. with Sep
tember $1.1SH @1.13s and December
$1.16h @1.16A. Corn finished shade
off to 1ac. up. oats "a a sc. down, and
provisions varying from setback OF
10c. to a rise Of 21ac.
Crop experts travelling in the spring
wheat belt sent reassuring messages ex-
pressing the opinion that unless condi-
tions soon were altered the amount OF
damage from rust would be small. In
addition, reports from winter wheat ter
ritory were to the effect that threshing
would be hastened as a result OF pre-
vailing sunshine and higher tempera-
ture.
More selling pressure from hedgers
was apparent in the wheat market than
has been the rule of late. and the coun-
try was said to be offering wheat freely
to arrive, although at little above the
market. The fact that Liverpool quota
tions showed but slight response to yes
terday's advance here counted also as a
6earish influence. On the other hand.
railway strike developments failed to
stimulate any important new buying.
Export purchases OF corn totaling
100000 bushels gave some strength to
the corn market.
Oats sagged with wheat.
Provisions reflected lower hog values.
There was considerable forced selling
OF lard.

Failed ON Exchange Demand.

@~~@-----~~~
Special Dispatch to THE New YoRk HnALp.
CHICAGO, July Instability to con-
form to the rule Of the New York Stock
Exchange In the matter OF ratio OF mar
gins to the trades on hand was said to
be the reason for receivership Tor
Mast & Co.. who had offices at 135 South
La Sale street.
The firm has nearly 1000 creditors in
Chicago. Payment of obligations In full
Is promised by members OF the house.
It was learned that the firm was
one of many picked at random to
answer a QUESTIONABLE sent out by
the New York Stock Exchange. in re-
lation to assets and liabilities. by July
Is. Customers of the house. 1t was
said, were unable to meet demands for
immediate settlement of margins. and
the receivership was decided on late
yesterday to protect the firm. The
company was founded twenty-five
years ago by A. d. and Samuel Mast.
and Samuel Mast is now the sole head.
A. D. Mast having withdrawn some
ten years ago.
Abel Davis, yice-president Of the Chi
cago Title and Trust Company, assumed
charge of the offices after Judge Car
penter had named the trust company
temporary receiver. The trust COM
pany notified the members of the Chi
cago Stock Exchange that all open
trades OF Mast & Co. would be carried
out.
Auditors from the trust company be-
gan to check over the accounts and
after they had been working for sew
eral hours Gen. Davis ventured an opin-
ion on the status Of the firm. He said
From hasty examination I would
say that it does not appear to be
serious bankruptcy. We have high
hopes for the creditors. and the pay
ment of 100 cents on the dollar.
Reports current that the failure of
Mast & Co. was due to the backing OF
the chain Of moving picture enterprises
Of Ascher Bros. OF Chicago, for which
receiver has been petitioned for. are
without foundation.
II have personally investigated these
rumors. and there Is absolutely no con-
nection between the threatened bank
ruptcy of the Ascher enterprises and
the failure OF Mast & Co. We think
now the liabilities here and in New York
will amount to from $3,000.000 to
$1,000, 900 and the assets will be some
what less. However. from the looks OF
things the creditors of the concern prob
ably will suffer no great loss"
William Wilhardt. attorney Tor Mast
4 Co., put the liabilities at between
$4,000, 900 and ss.ooo.ooo. with assets
slightly less.<
An official of the firm intimated that
the action had virtually been voluntary
to prevent the filing Of bankruptcy
papers by other creditors. 1t was said
authoritatively that two Of the three
petitioners necessary under the law
were relatives of the head Of the firm.
Tho other petitioner Is an employee.
Charles D. Quinn. cashier, who says the
firm owes him $40 in salary.
The other two creditors filing tho peti-
ton are Miss e. r. Mast. q niece of
Samuel Mast. who claims Al3.62. and
Jerome Nathan. who claims $5.S49.T for
money loaned.
Fluctuations in the market are said
to have been accountable for the diff
culties Of the firm. 1t purchased stock
on margin for many customers In Chi
cago. New York and Boston. The firm
dealt largely in grains. stocks and
bonds.

nent wholesaler Tho initial volume Of

Better crop conditions are being re-
Elected In increased inquiries in the
Western wholesale dry goods market.
according to John ". Farwell Com
pany's weekly review. More attention
and greater activity are being given
this season to preparations for market
buying during August. Distributors
stocks for fall are being completed and
buyers from the larger department
stores throughout the country are be-
ginning to investigate the offerings for
fall. Buyers from the Southern States,
especially Texas. have been in the mar
ket during the week in larger numbers
than during the same period last year.
Collections are favorable.

SILK Output Methods.

Silk manufacturers in Germany and
France have not taken the losses on
silks that American manufacturers
have sustained. because their method
of doing business is different from
ours, according to prominent manu-
facturer who has returned from Eu-
rope. Foreign manufacturers make
goods only on order and in this way
avoid overproduction. Here" he said.
manufacturers have been operating on
the principle that 1t is cheaper to run
mills at a loss than to shut down.
With overproduction prices are weak
ened and until the distress goods are
gone buyers will not be willing to pay
the manufacturers price. Manufacture
ers have begun to realize this fact and
are planning to curtail the production
of tho fabrics in smaller demand" The
factor looks for continuance OF I'M
provement in the silk trade.

strike Affects Lumber Trade.

For the first twenty-six weeks Of this
year orders for lumber have exceeded
production by approximately 20 per
cent, according to the American Lun-
herman. Shipments also have exceeded
production. The RAILROAD strike is hav-
ing a retarding effect upon the lumber
business. Freight is moving slowly and
deliveries are uncertain. with the result
that sellers are careful about accepting
orders for future delivery and In gen.
eral are accepting only business which
can be sent forward Immediately. A
scarcity of cars Is noticed In some pro-
ducing sections. Some sellers. expect
ing the shipping situation to become
worse. have rushed some unsold ship
ments through and price concessions
have been offered on some such stock.
Otherwise the market remains firm.

Gain in Electrical Trade.

Sales Of electrical materials to indus
trial and manufacturing plants are
steadily increasing, reports the Electri-
cal World. Conduit prices advanced
about per cent. during the last week.
Transformer sales for customer sub
stations are reported excellent. although
fan sales nave fallen off greatly. job
bers report light demand for this time
of the year. Several manufacturers of
outlet boxes have announced an in
crease in prices from 16 to 16 per cent.
Despite the summer lull and poor static
conditions radio equipment business is
holding up well in most sections Gable
and wire demand maintains strength
and deliveries are becoming longer. A
steady call for good grades of lighting
fixtures continues. The industrial light
ing market Is expected to become ac-
tive in few months.

DRY Goods Outlook Promi.ins.

That wholesale prices on staple cotton
textiles maintain practically the level Of
q week ago Is notable. for moderate ad-
vances have been progressive for the last
six to eight weeks. says the Dry Goods
Reporter of Chicago. This lull is seen
as only temporary. as further slight ad-
vanccs are being worked out. due to
further upward adjustment in primary
centers on finished and unfinished goods.
Prospects arc moro promising for the
second hah of the year. and In many
lines commitments are being made for
several weeks ahead. Resistance to price
advances is being made by all buyers.
although from the angle Of cotton's level
and production costs. advances are said
TO be justifiable. Within six weeks
staple cottons notably narrow muslins
in several brands. advanced an average
Of 10 per cent.
