WHEAT CHOPS 5 TO 7 GENTS ON PEACE NOTE

CHICAGO, Dec. 21. President Wilson's peace note slashed war prices today in the wheat pit 6 to 7c a bushel The biggest cut in values came inBtaneously as soon as trading began. There was a whirlwind of offers to sell, and it seemed as If recent ten cent smashes in prices were about to

be surpassed, but the fact soon became evident that furious as was the selling strong forces were more than ready to take all the supplies that could be thrown on the market at any unreasonable sacrifice. The result was that the flurry halted much sooner than recent experiences had led many dealers to expect, and recoveries of about 2c from the early bottom figures were quickly scored. Opening Prices Range Down. Opening prices for wheat, taking the market as a whole, ranged from 3 to 7c down from yesterday's close, with May at $1.55 to $1.58, and July at $1.30 to $1.31. When comparative steadiness was restored the leading options. May and July, were respectively, at about $1.57 Va and $1.31. Corn, oats and provisions, unlike wheat were not affected to a radical extent by the President's message to the warring nations and trading was not much if any greater scale than usual. Corn started to 2 lower, but recovered to within to lc of yester

day's finish. f j The extreme drop in oats was 1. Previsions gained in value on the better peace prospects, but the furtherest rise was confined to 27, and that by no means general.
