TUESDAY, JUNE 26, 1917. Grain | CHICAGO, June 25.—-Material declines took place in the wheat market today owing more or less to prospects tha tthe food bill, including prohibition of the use of foodstuffs for the manufacture of alcoholic beverages, would pass the senate. The opening, which varied from 3 to 5 cents lower, with July at $2.U9 and Sep tember at $1.83®1.84, was followed by a mod erate additional sag. Encouraging crop reports from Camilla tended to prevent any decided recovery In .wheat. Be sides there were increased offerings of new wheat. The close was steady. 2 to 4 points net lower with July at $2.10 and September jat $ 1 85. Bieaking of the drouth in southern Oklahoma gave a setback to corn after an early advance. Opening prices ranged from off to a like advance, and there wa* a slight upturn, but later a sharp descent all around to well below Saturday's finish. Likelihood of the enactment of the food control bill acted as a bearish factor in corn. Notice was likewise taken of the Kansas state report showing the lagrest acreage on record. Brisk demand from the seaboanl, though, fill allv proved more than an offset. The close was firm at H cent off to 114 cent net ad * vance. Hats mirrored the action of corn. Firmness prevailed at the start, but later the selling side became popular. Lower quotations on hogs eased down provi sions, Ou the break, however, demand improved, and rallies were in order.

Support from shorts I was poor, these Interests hoping for further of | ferings of now wheat nt the southwest to bring a better buying basis. It Is understood ' then* is some export buying of new wheat, bn' the general trade Is upset because of the ab sence of a hedging market. Rains were again reported in the Canadian northwest and in va rious parte of American spring wheat belt with the result that private opinions are expressing the drought In these districts has been re lieved. Corn —The market was very firm at times in reflection of the cash situation and the confi dence of the bulls. Offerings increased on the moderate advances and part of the selling was credited to large eastern holders. As an off set the prohibition movement was bearisbly re garded in many quarters. COTTON OIL MARKET NEW YORK, June 25.—Russell's News Bu reau says: The market was irregular. Bullish advices from the wets on lard rought out a little buying, on the other hand there were some reports of beneficial rains in Texas and Oklahoma, which resulted in light selling for cotton bouses. Private reports are that t moisture in the southwest is still insufficient anq a bullish government report is expected next month which are serving to hold do*n offerings of new crude oil. Sentiment among local traders has been much mixed but with no real aggressiveness. Open.

JOHN F CLARK & CO.'S COTTON LETTER NEW ORLEANS, June 25.—N0 change tn tin political situation over Sunday nn<l no foreign news of consequence for the market. The most important development over Sunday wns the rainfall over the western states which, judg ing from. reports received, was in sufficient quantity to benefit crops and covered a large portion of the drouth sections of the west. Some good rains occurred in ventral west Texas and western Oklahoma: scattered showers fell in central states and genera! rain fell over eastern Tennessee and the Carolinas. Hattiesburg, Miss., reports corn dying for lack of moisture but cotton doing well nnd prospects are still good for the crop. Indication* are for part cloudy showery weather for the entire belt. The relief by rnlns in the west probably came too Into to find expression in the bureau report of July 2. The cotton goods review report shows that prices nre fully sustnined and mills overcrowded with work by national needs, hut as their output is limited by labor conditions, the bullish effect of the situation is rnther prospective. Opening here wns irregnlnr. 60 down on August; 25 to 50 down on October, with few buyers until opening quotations and New York showed a firmer nttituje there, wlie nprices here rallied about 25 points, but the market broke to 25.42 for OetMier as sih>p n« New York showed easiness. lifsaiqsdntinent over the fail ure of Liverpool to reopen, but particularly the relief of rnlns tn the west Texas nnd the general feeling that prices hnve been pushed prematurely to a great height, were the moral factors in the decline. The realization of the !<«sibility of continued manipulative control In the northern market owing to small stocks there, chocked hcraish aggressiveness. Only moderate tenders are expected tomorrow anil technical renditions are in favor of prompt acceptance of them by certain interests. ISOLD STORAGE EGGS SHOW LARGE INCREASE WASHINGTON. D.
