FOREIGN NEWS
Wheat Rallies to Close Up
2 IA to 2 5-8 Cents;
All Grains Active.
BY HAROLD E. RAINVILLE
United Press STAFF Correspondent

CHICAGO. Aug. There was a
marked change in sentiment on the
Board of Trade today and spirited
buying ran prices up more than ,
cents at one time. The belief that
everything bearish that could posi-
bly, happen had been already seen
and that anythi~y further must be
bullish was Substantiated in part
with orders for American wheat
from Albania, leSsened hedging
pressure, frost in Canada. a firming
at Liverpool and the changing from
the bear to the bull side by a long
time heavy bear operator.
Corn Up Sharply
Corn and oats moved up sharply
with wheat, but not before Deem
Der corn had set new low shortly
after the opening. The rise was
partly technical in nature with
some short covering.
At the close wheat was pa to 2ss
cents higher, corn was is to tx
cents higher and oats were y to s.
cent higher. Provisions Weakened
with hogs.
Liverpool held steady at the early
decline and was Is to Is cent lower
at the close. Winnipeg rallied from
an early dip and was Il cent up at
mtdmorning. Rains in the north
west are believed to have come too
late to be of material benefit to the
spring wheat crop. Cash prices were
to 2 cents higher. Receipts were
288 cars.
Corn had a firm tone early. Con-
centrated holdings of September
the cash month, held selling in
check in that delivery and gave
some tlrmness to the deferred
months.
Showers Are Forecast
The forecast for showers tonight
coupled with fair rains in some
sections Thursday night brought
pressure that sent December to a
new low for the season at 4Oh
cents, falling nearly l cent from the
early high. September lost some of
its gain, but was 4 cent higher at
mid-session with the deferred
months Is cent lower to u cent
higher. Cash prices were un-
changed. Receipts were "A cars
oats reacted with corn but buvjng
by cash houses held the downturn
IN check and at Woodworking that
market held to 4 cent above the
previous close. The market was
quiet. Canada is reporting the need
Tor warm weather if late sown oats
are to be harvested. Cash prices
were z to q cent higher. Receipts
were 101 cars.

Has Corn Monopoly


Thomas M. Howell, millionaire
grain operator, was reported have
practical monopoly on the supply
of July corn, being reputed to hold
100000 bushels. He stated he ex-
pected the price to rise.
Cotton futures rallied from lows
after making new lows since the
1914-1915 season. Copper made a
record low on the London Metal
Exchange.
On the curb and Chicago Stock
Exchanges heavy selling in Cities
Service was an unsettling factor.
This widely held stock broke to rec
ord low levels. 1t rallied late in
the day when the markets turl
up with the big board.
Improvement in the German sit
uation was a factor in bringing a
turn in the stock market. German
restrictions on foreign exchange
were to be lifted Saturday, and it
was believed the Reichsbank would
be able to reduce its Is per cent re-
discount rate within week or so.
Favorable Reports Made
Several favorable reports were
made public today, including Radio
Corporation, Sears oebuck and
Safeway Stores. Vacuum de-
clared an initial dividend of 40
cents share quarterly, which made
the payment exactly tie same as
holders of Standard of New York
and Vacuum were receiving before
the merger of the two.
Before the late rally the market
was unsettled by drive against
the railroad shares. New York
Central made new low since 1921
at 701s and New Haven made a new
low since 1923 at 59%. Canadian
Pacific made a new low for the
present shares and Illinois Central
a record low. Pennsylvania wa2
down to the lowest levels since 1925.
Atchison and Union Pacific lost
heavily.
Sales Show Decrease
Preliminary calculation showed
the Dow Jones railroad average
down 0.33 at TIPS; industrial up 1876
at 1858, and utility up OBI at 55.31.
Sales totaled approximately 7O0,-
600 shares, against 100000 shares
Thursday.
Curb Exchange sales totaled 270,-
600 shares, of which 1890 shares
were turned over to Cities Service
stock, its volume making up more
than % per cent of the business
done on the market. The issue
made a new low at 85s and closed
at ga, off Il.
Sales on the Chicago Stock Ex-
change totaled $4,000 shares, of
which 1880 or 81 per cent were
in Cities Service stock. The stock
made a new low at az, and closed
at 91s, off Is.
