Grain Market

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, February 10.-Fresh set
backs in grain values early today &C
companied bearish official reports as
to the crop outlook for domestic Winter
wheat. On the downturn corn touched
a new low price record for the season.
Opening 1s-ss of, wheat afterward
held near the initial range. Corn also
started at 1s-3s decline and subse-
quently showed little change
An outstanding feature of crop re-
ports relative to domestic Winter wheat
was emphasis on advises that there had
been no apparent injury from the cold
waves Of the last 10 days. 1t was es-
pecially made clear in an official sum-
mary that Ohio Valley wheat was doing
well, and that although the ground had
been bare during the low temperatures
no damage was reported. Announce
ment, however, that the foreign wheat
quota in France had again been In
creased, and was now IS per cent COM
pared with 10 per cent since February
1, and 3 per cent prior to that date,
tended to act as counter balance.
Predictions were current that the
French import quota on wheat would be
raised successfully. and would soon
reach 80 to so per cent. On the price
rallies which followed these predictions,
wheat recovered from early downturns,
and in most cases went above yester-
Gays finish. Some buying was done on
statements from private crop experts
that despite official reports the condi-
ton of domestic Winter wheat remained
abnormal and suggested danger ahead.
Corn and oats largely duplicated the
action of wheat.
Notwithstanding upturns In hog
values, provisions went lower as a result
of scattered selling and Of slow demand

EVERYMAN'S
INVESTMENTS
BY GEORGE T. HUGHES.

The thesis that debts owed to Amer
lcan creditors by foreign debtors can
only be liquidated to the extent that
the latter are able to sell their goods
In sufhcient quantity to provide the
dollars necessary is further elucidated
oy the statement of the chairman of
the board of the Chase National Bank
IN MS annual report to the stockhold-
ers. Mr.. Wiggin, who is in Berlin as
the head Of the committee representing
the American banks who have extended
short-term credits to Germany, puts it
this way:
Much of this debt could be promptly
Hquldated if the foreign creditor banks
would accept reichsmarks in payment
But these debts are payable in foreign
carfeheles; cur nc s.. .t,.a Foreign exchange
world is willing to buy marks. The
outside world will buy marks only to
the extent that it needs marks for
making payments in Germany"
obviously, the only outsiders who
might need marks would be those who
had purchased German goods. 1t was
true year or two ago that foreign
loans extended to Germany, either for
snort or long term, created exchange
which Germany could use to make pay
ments to other creditors, but that
supply is no longer available The
world has stopped making loans to
Germany The only recourse left to
the Germans is to find purchasers
wherever they can for whatever they
have to sell and at whatever price
they have to take. In other words,
her creditors must look now to a sur
plus OF German exports over imports
for satisfaction Of their claims. There
is such surplus Of exports, but it is
not large enough and this is the trans
fer problem Of which we hear SO much.
The exposition is incomplete without
one other consideration. The ability
Of Germany to create exports depends
upon the maintenance Of her position
as going concern. Nobody will obtain
anything from . bankrupt Germany.
She can pay neither public nor private
debts unless she is allowed to continue
doing business and she cannot do busi-
ness if all foreign capital is withdrawn.

Trade Trends

BY the Associated Press.
Copper.-Last weeks production In
the price of copper has not thus fal
changed the attitude OF consumers
copper trade interests assert. Buying
is at an exceedingly low level both here
and abroad. 1t is said that customs
smelters are willing to sell at 6l4 cents
a pound, with second hands Offering
metal at 6 cents delivered to the enc
of May.
Mail Order Sales-The low level OF
the farm purchasing power continued
effective in greatly restricting the busl'
ness of mail order concerns, says the
Standard Statistics Co. Little i'm
provement in sales is to be anticipated
prior to the receipt of income from 1887
harvestS. and with prices now averaging
substantially below those of year pre-
vious. dollar sales undoubtedly will con-
tinue to compare unfavorably with 1881
results throughout the greater part OF
the current year, the survey says.

Special Dispatch 10 Ine Star.
NEW YORK, February 10.-The
method by which railroads and other
corporations in need Of credit not OBJ
nels may secure relief is outlined in the
circular of the Reconstruction Finance
Corporation 1t indicates the rather
elaborate course that the applicant has
to take in placing his case before this
Government agency and, with respect
to the carriers, 1t is somewhat similar
to the progress adopted when funds
were required by the transportation sys-
TENS at the close Of the war.
1t appears that the Interstate Com
merce Commission is to act in the ca
pacity of a supervisor of the railroad
loans, as all of the information nece-
sSary in connection with such loans
must first be scrutiniZed by commit
more familiar with the facts of rail-
road finance and of operations than
any other body. Whether this will de-
lay the granting Of loans and compli-
cate the machinery Of financing is still
to be determined.
Temporary Financing.
Such financing as is done in behalf
Of the carriers will be of temporary
be made by the Reconstruction Corpo-
ration, is not to exceed term of three
years 1t is important to note that aid
will be given to carriers that have con-
struction projects under way. This
would properly include the Pennsylvania
Railroad, which is making application
for loans TO complete the electrification
of the New York. Washington division.
Inasmuch as there is comparatively lit
tie new construction of railroad mileage
being undertaken in the United States,
most of the relief will be in the nature
Of accommodating maturing obligations.
There are a few projects of construc-
ton nature, such as those in Colorado
and short uncompleted division of one
of the small independent Eastern car
riers, whose promoters will undoubtedly
look to the Government agency for as
sistance
A provision in the circular is to the
effect that no loan to any corporation
or its subsidiary or affiliate shall exceed
at any one time 500, 100000 While it
is understood that there are several in
stitutional loans pending of ma jor
size, it is not believed that the maxi

mum loaning capacity Of the Recon-
struction Corporation will have to be
used to aid any individual concern or
its affiliated companies.
The extent to which the Reconstruc-
ton Corporation may be called upon to
take over the work of the Railroad
Credit Corporation, which was set up to
assist the carriers and whose funds are
derived from the increase in freight
rates. or to supplement the National
Credit Corporation, organized as a re-
lief agency for the banks, Is a subject
OF conjecture. The circular of the Re
construction Corporation states that
any railroad applicant for loan must
indicate whether it has been assisted by
the Railroad Credit Corporation The
receivers Of the Wabash Railroad were
the flrst to appear belore the Recon-
struction Corporation with a request
for loan of size regarded as too
large for the Railroad Credit Corpora
ton to negotiate. The general belief is
that most of the major railroad loans
will go through the Reconstruction Cor
poration and the smaller and less i'm
perative ones be handled by the Rail-
road Credit Corporation.
An Emergency Agency.
Inc NatlOnal Creolt corporation mas
been functioning primarily in cases Of
emergency. Its value has been in Civ
ing immediate relief to banks that were
threatened with suspension owing to a
rapid decline in their deposits and in
ability to borrow from their regular
correspondents on their unliquid assets.
There is no good reason why the Ma
tional Credit Corporation should not
continue to function in such situations
and play its proper part in carrying
weak banks through the crisis. The
ReconstSuction Finance Corporation, on
the other hand, will deal with larger
and more far-reaching banking situa-
tions, some of which have been tempo
rarily eased by the pooling Of banking
resources in central reserve districts for
their benefit. 1t is significant Of the
Improvement in sentiment throughout
the country that a majority of the
banking suspensions in January and
those during the first week of February
were of institutions with comparatively
small deposits and that no serious out
break has occurred since the suspen-
sions in Boston and its vicinity and in
Hartford, Conn, some weeks ago.
