WHEAT ATTITUDE
APPEARS BEAR|SH
Prices at Chicago Steady to

CHICAGO, March 9. - Wheat
traders were bearish in their views
at the opening at the Chicago Board
of Trade, with prices unchanged to
1Sc lower than yesterdays close.
Foreign markets were sharply lower,
following the tenor of the farm re-
serve report and the forecast of big
shipments from the Argentine.
The late break in corn was much
more severe than in wheat, and
based on the belief that the market
is in an oversold condition, most
traders are expecting a recovery.
The Government showed sixty-f1ve
million bushels more corn than was
looked for. Opening prices were Nc
to &c lower than the previous close.
With the demand slow and cash sit
uation weakening steadily, any adj
vance is not likely to be maintained.
Oats opened &c to nc lower than
Tuesdays close. Traders were great
ly disappointed over the showing of
farm reserves, which was 58,000,000
bushels more than expected.
Provisions opened higher.

The small gain by Tuesdays hog
market here was offset today by the
steady to 10 cents lower prices. Re-
ceipts at the Indianapolis stock
yards were estimated at $500, the
largest run in more than a week,
which had a weakening influence
on prices. Holdovers from the pre-
vious market were 113.
The trend of local bids was unlike
that at Chicago, where the market
was steady to strong. Nevertheless,
prices at the two centers were on
practically the same level. the bulk
of the sales here being at $11.S5@

training for two weeks, nevertheless
they will be excused If the reason is
valid one. Instructions have been
issued that men putting up this ex-
cuse must either obtain from their
employers a statement in writing
that this is the case, or prepare
statement themselves. Each case of
this kind will be considered person
ally by Maj. Gen. Anton Stephan,
commanding the Guard, who proposes
to take the matter up with employers
of these members of the Guard.
For many years past. as q result of
a campaign of patriotism conducted
on behalf of the Guard. many en-
ployers of the city have allowed their
men time off. with pay. for attending
q military enCampment, and this in
addition to the annual vacation usual
ly allowed the men. But, according
to the number of men who already
have put up this excuse. the pen
dulum seems to be swinging back.
However, if the situation appears to
be real, it is probable that the Guard
will bring the matter to the attention
of the local trade bodies with view
to laying down general form of prac-
tice which will permit men to have
this military leave without jeopardiz.
ing their positions.
The Guard officials are now giving
very serious consideration to this
question and the matter has been
taken in hand personally by the COM
manding general, to ascertain Wheth-
er the reasons are valid ones, and If
they are, to ascertain what steps may
be taken to correct them.

it was said at brigade headquarters.
Capt. Jensen from now on will de-
vote his time to coaching and training
the rifle team of the local Guard to
fit them to take some of the high
prizes in the coming national rifle
matches to be held at Camp Perry,
Ohio. The local Guard has strong
team of picked men this year, and it
is the hope that they will defeat many
of the teams from other Guard or
