THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKL'Y JOURNAL/ATLANTA, GA., FRIDAY, JANUARY 12, 1917..
Grain
CHICAGO, Jan. 11.—Considerable strength de
veloped in the wheat market today after a
show of heaviness at the outset. Much of the
buying apparently was busts! upon the absence
of any confirmation us yesterday's bearish ru
mor* aliont iwace and submarines. Commission
bouses were the chief purchasers. Opening quo
tations, which ranged from l‘/,c off to
advance, w'ith May at $1.82% to $1.8.3% and
July at $1.46% to $1.47%, were followed by
substantial gains all around, and then something
of a reaction.
Subsequently Wall street weakness and news
of the sinking of the British warship ''ornwallis
made wheat values dip, but afterward large
clearances nt the seaboard ami bullish anticipa
tions as to ihe reply of the entente allies
brought about a sharp upturn. The closing was
strong. .3 to 4c net higher, with May nt $1.87%
to $1.87%, and July at $1.51 to $1.51
Corn rose mainly as n result of continued
damage reports from Argentina. Colder weather
t*-nded also to help the bulls. After opening
%e to %c higher, ‘the market reacted a little,
tut later siored a decided fresh a Hance.
Scarcity of rural offerings acted as a handi
cap on the wars on corn. The close was strong,
IS' - net advance.
itiTts hardened with other grain. Demand,
however, was only of a scattered sort.
Absence of upport led to decline in the pro
vision market. There did not seem, however, to
be any urgent pressure to sell.

JOHN F. CLARK & CO.'S COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS, Jau. 11. —Liverpwl is mere
ly following ibe lead of the American markets
and made a fall response '.o bur Ueeiiue jester
uay. quoting s, ets 25 lower, sales 8,000.
Ijimlon says the ally rv;dy to the president's
peace note iiaa been han ted to the American
ambassador, so we ought to get it shortly. Ou
its lenor '.vu.u will depend in defining political
views of tne future and consequent action 3y
si*ei-uhttion. If it should be a flat retusal of
peace offers, pessimism would be enhanced and
lead to pressure iu the markets, but if it in
any way suppimrt* the chanee for further peace
negotiations, Lullish enterprise would be stim
-1 uated in cotton.
Yesterday’s decline was entirely political,
' prompted >n- the basis of the Manchester Guai
dian'.s interpretation of Mr. Gerard’s tpeecli at
I Berlin in t «• light of a warning to Germ inv
agqinst submarine extension. Tiie reactionary
change in tLc Russian ministry and new wir
loan efforts in England were all claimed by the
bear elem -nt.
Lan* asiure mills are. however, so prosperous,

ADVERSE REPORT WILL BE
MADE ON “LEAK” CHARGE
Sub-Committee May Yet Deal
With Lawson for
Contempt
(By Associated Press.)
WASHINGTON, Jan. 1\. —Over% the
protests of Republican members, the
Democratic majority of the house rules
committee today voted to report ad
versely Representative Wood’s priv
ileged resolution for a congressional in
quiry into the charges of Thomas W.
Lawson ■ that there was a leak to Wall
street on President Wilson’s peace
note.
Democrats and Republicans disagreed
as to the effect of the committee’s
action toward the Lawson contempt
charges. Republicans say he was ab
solved by a vole of the majority and
that the whole investigation is over.
Chairman Henry insists that the spe
cial subcommittee to deal with Law
son’s refusal to answer questions pro
pounded by the committee and his pub
lication of ’’leak” charges in newspa
pers still is in existence and may take
some action.
The opposing members also disagree
as to whether the inquiry is over. Re
publicans say it is, in effect. Repre
sentative Henry and Representative
Wood have another resolution before the
committee which has not been acted
upon which the majority refused to take
up today.
NEW VERSION OF LEAK.
A new version of the “leak’’ to Wall
street on President Wilson s peace ncle
was given to the committee by James
R. Reilly, managing editor of the Wall
Street Journal.
A tip picked up, he said, by a Dow
Jones reporter in Wall street that
brokers’ private wires from Washington
were saying the president was about
to send a peace note was solely respon
sible for tiie dispatch forecasting the
note on. the company's ticker at 2:05
p. m. Wednesday, December 20.
Between 11:30 a. m., when Reilly re
ceived the tip, and the dispatch of the
item, Reilly said, he received two mes
sages from John Boyle, the Journal s
local representative here. The lirst was
marked “confidential" and told of the
coming of a note and said it was not
a peace proposal. The sec.ond, In reply
to Reilly's inquiry as to tiie reports
gleaned from the brokers’ wires, said
reference undoubtedly was made to the
coming note. (|
Shortly after 1 o’clock Chairman
Henry announced that owing to Speaker
Clark being called to New York, the re
port of the rules committee would not
:*e submitted to the house before to
morrow.
