GRAIN MARKET
(By pisnatcn A. p wireN


CHICAGO March 1.-'Whirled down.
ward by storm of selling, the
wheat market today suffered fall
of as much as 6%c bushel ana
carried down other grains as well.
Unofficial estimates that the
amount of wheat held on Unitec
States farms is much larger than has
generally been supposed was among
the chief factors which brought about
the general rush to sell. Contributing
also was violent setback of stock
market values in Wall street.
emi-demoralized close resulted
in the wheat market, with prices at
virtually the days bottom level 312
to SIC net lower; May (new) S1.58%
to $1.59 and July $1.40B to $1.40A.
Corn finished 23sc to 2%c off, oats
at kc to 1hc down and provisions
varying from 7@1Oc decline to 12c
advance.
A big share of the selling in the
wheat market was ascribed to one of
the largest spectators here. He is
credited with having been the owner
of huge line of wheat, and the fact
that he has a considerable following
der the market unstable when talk
spread that he. was letting go of his
holdings.
Downward swings of wheat values
began about the time that estimates
from private crop experts began to
be circulated relative to domestic
farm stocks of wheat. Prior to this
time the general Impression in the
trade was that the estimates would
show about 85,0OO,O0O to $1,000, 900
bushels. Instead, however, the fig
ures ranged from 93,OO0,O0 to o.
100000 bushels In addition to the
depressing effect of the surprise in
regard to farm reserve estimates the
wheat market here was confronted
by an unexpected decline in wheat
quotations at Liverpool and later by
word of severe breaks in the New
York stock market. Persistent heavy
selling of wheat ensued, and although
rallies were witnessed they all failed

COLDS THAT
DEVELOP into
PNEUMONIA

Persistent coughs and colds lead to seri-
GUS trouble. You can stop them now with
Creomulsion, an emulsi6ed creosote that
is pleasant to take. Creomulslon is new
medical discovery with two-fold action; IL
soothes and heals the inAamed membranes
and inhibits germ growth.
Of all known drugs, creosote is recog-
nized by high medical authorities as one
of the greatest healing agencies for persis-
tent coughs and colds and other forms OF
throat troubles. Creomulsion contains, in
addition to creosote, other healing ele--
ments which soothe and heal the infected
membranes and stop the irritation and
inflammation, while the creosote goes on
to the stomach, is absorbed into the blood,
attacks the seat of the trouble and checks
the growth of the germs.
Creomulsion is guaranteed satisfac-
tory in the treatment of persistent
coughs and colds; bronchial asthma
bronchitis and other forms of respira-
tory diseases, and is excellent for build
ing up the system after colds or flu.

NEW YORK, March 1.-Acute. weak

and cotton futures declined "a to 81
points, most of them touching new
low levels for the year. Total stock
sales were 2,101, $780, the largest of
any session this year
There was nothing in the days
news to account for the reactions in
the speculative markets, which Wall
street was inclined to regard as an
overdue correction of speculative eX-
cesses that have been taking place
since last fall, and which have been
strikingly revealed in the sensational
collapse of recent stock market pools.
AS matter of fact, most of the
days news was favorable, including
the publication of several 1925 earn
ings reports and the raising of the
tobacco products dividend from Sc to
81.
The announcement before the OPEN
ing that banking interests had taken
over the holdings of certain groups
which had been operating in Ameri-
can Brake Shoe and Foundry, Foun,
dation Company and New York Can

lent declines on Saturday inspired
sufficient short coming to give in
itial transactions firm tone. Bear
traders, encouraged by their success
in covering weak spots and pre-
sumably taking advantage of the un-
easiness of investors, continued, how.
ever, to hammer at supposedly in
vulnerable issues, meeting with
marked success in international Com
