With Europe purchasing oats In heavy supply from the Atlantic sea board. It Is now believed that some business of moment will pass from the Pacific coast, especially the northwest. Wheat market continues excited here, and a further advance Is shown In values at leading world's centers. There Is a better demand for cargoes, and holders are said to be asking an advance of a chilling over the pre vious price. The flour market continues mixed, with no further change In quotations. Millstuffs are firm generally throughout the Pacific northwest, and prices are holding firm. While with the exception of club, the market for wheat was firm and In most Instances higher, there was no trading on the Merchants' Ex change today. There was no wheat offering and while a further advance of l-2c was offered for bluestem at S6c and a rise of lc for fortyfold at 88c, none was available. ' The market likewise showed strength on the exchange for oats and while bids were unchanged at $25 for No. 1 feed, there was no offering Barley values were generally 25c a cental lower.

When war first broke out the Spanish fleet was concentrated at the Balearic Islands and later a num ber of conferences at San Sebastian between high Spanish official and supposed French representatives fur nished grounds for still another spec ulation. King Alfonso's relations with the French are at least cordial and with the British royal family they are very close, in return for Spanish help, it was pointed out that France might greatly smooth Spain's way In north ern Africa. Alfonso unquestionably could lend 100,000 or so very serviceable fight ers to the English and French, but it was the general opinion here thai If he should do so he would Inevit ably precipitate a revolution in his own country. Leaders of the epub llcan, socialist and anarchist groups were said to be actually hopeful that he would take the step, and to be pre paring for an uprising on short notice.

Chicago plac ed Itself on a "war footing" today to cope with the sudden rise in the price of meat, flour and other necessaries as the results according to whole saler and retailer of the European war. The public market committee of the city council announced its in intention of taking action to prevent a fruther increase. A meeting of the committee may be called at once and a general con ference arranged for at which will gather city, state and government of ficials, heads of clvle organizations, economists, heads of great supply firms and representatives of the small retailer and the consumer. James H. Wllkerson, United States district attorney, and Maclay Hoyne, state's atorney. said tonight that they would Investigate the Increase in prices and would BeeJt Indictments If it was found that an arbitrary and unwarranted price had been set for provisions. A prediction made by a well known retail butcher at the war's outbreak, thnt "whlpsaw boycotts" would be started against various kinds of meats and foods the moment they in creased In prices, seemed about to be realized today. Housewives in va rious section agreed to abstain from eating pork and other victuals which have risen enormously. In the meantime the eye of the United States district attorney's of fice is shifting according to reports Uward the possibility that pools and combinations might put even ordi nary foodstuffs out of reach. Every dinner table in Chicago was affected today by the Increase of re tall prices, and tho blow was felt In restaurants of low and high degree. Grocers and butchers answered by pointing to the wholesale quotations nnd declaring they were helpless. Some of tho butchers even urged a boycott. Flour wns retailing at 85 cents or more for n 24 1-2 pound sack today, k clear rise of 10 cents 'over tho or dinary fiyure. On Im-rcnse In the cost of n loaf of bread Is nlso expected.

"We know," writes the Standard correspondent, "that but a few score miles away, the pages of history are being engraved rapidly with steel written characters illuminated in blood on the margin, with a background of heroism and suffering. "Yet it is almost as if we were at the other side of the world. The shrieking gamins gallop through the streets waving their news, but it is al ways news of more than 24 hours ago. "Commlnques, or official state ments, are given out at 11:30 o'clock in the morning and 5:30 o'clock in the afternoon, but each long day gives us little more than the morning papers have already told of the events of yesterday. "The Iron-handed censor reduces all press dispatches to the monotonous repetition of the same formula. Only the headlines afford any scope for originality." WAR HITS COPPER, TYING UP MARKETS NEW YORK. Aug. 20. The war has struck a hard blow at the copper trade. According to figures compiled by the American Metal Market about FOOu ten of copper are on piers f German steamships which should bo on the way to Europe. Mines and smelters in the west were reported yesterday na preparing to close, and some. Including ' tho Anaconda, In Butte, have shut down or greatly curtailed their output The Frledrich der Grosse, which Balled from Baltimore and put In at Hoboken had 1434 tons of copper consigned to Germany. The Kron prinzessln Cecllie carried about 300 tons. Every other German ship that has returned or failed to sail has had a considerable quantity of the metal. The normal monthly production of the United States is about 80,000,000 pounds, approximately 60 per cent of which is for export. Germany has been one of the lorgest buyers. Little copper is being purchased for local use and the market has gone to pieces. In the few sales made the price was about $12.50 per hundred. This is 31.23 less than the average for July, 1913, and nearly 5 less lhan It sold for In 1912. SPANIARDS MAY AID FRENCH IN ATTACKS OX GERMAN SUMMERS LlsnON, Aug. 20.
