Today's Market Quotations

STRIKE AND SINKING CAUSE VARIATIONS IN WHEAT MARKET

(By Associated Press) CHICAGO. March 14. Much difference of opinion developed In the wheat trade today as to the logical market effect of the sinking of the American teamer Algonquin by a German eubmarlne. Bears contended that the event would naturally tend to lower prices, but bulls urged that chances of declared war with Germany on the part of the United States had been decidedly increased, and that such a conditlon would halt the threatented railway strike. Owing largely to the wide division of sentiment, the course of prices proved very unstable. Opening Quotations which were unchanged to lower with May at $1.81 K to $1.81 and July at $1.54 K to $1.64 were followed by a sharp upturn and then a set back all around to well below yesterday's finish. Corn, although relatively firm at the outset, sagged later with wheat. Owing to storm Interference with wires, trade was in the main local. After opening to higher, prices cored moderate further gatns and then receded under yesterday's closing level. Oata had no Independent action. Houses with northwestern connections were the chief sellers. Lower quotations on hogs weakened 'provisions. Pork led the decline.

CHINA'S ACT

Continued From Page One. increase the number almost without limit. So far the men have gone under private auspices as laborers. Apparently as yet China has not committed herself to accept the allies invitation to enter the war as an active participant Immediately after America's severance of relations with Germany China began to discuss similar actions and during the negotiations the French and Belgian legations in China invited her in behalf of the entente to declare war on Germany in return for a remission of the boxer indemnity and permission to increase her custom taxes. Diplomatic sources In Washington, however, said the entente promised merely a postponement of the boxer indemnity, not its remission. Meanwhile the entente invitation to enter the war remains in abeyance apparently pending a better agreement as to the term to be given China.
