Governor lowden was mentioned as possible secretary of commerce or head of the treasury department. Hoover's name was heard persistently us possible suere Uiry of tho interior. Henry Wallace of Iowa, publisher of a farm patter, is talked of as see - retary of agriculture. For secretary of war it Is learned that Lindley M. ! Garrison, who held the post ut one i time under President Wilson, who 1 had a difference of opinion with him. I will be considered. The organising uullity of Will H. Hays, chairman of the republican national committee, caused him to be considered for the postmaster generalship. Beveral of these possible appointment, it is un derstood, would be looked upon most favorably by the republican leaders In Harding's confidence.

S It was a eaggtna market for the greater part of the day when some buymg credited to the sea board took surplus off the market and caused some rally. In view of the small trade, decline in prices was greater than anticipated. There was nothing startling in the way of influ ential news, but a close scrutiny of developments of the past week dis closes an increasingly bearish situation ill, the southwest, the scat of the so- cilled farmers strike. Receipts have censistently increased and the Kansas City cash market in consequence has developed a weak tone. The sales re- ported for export today were thought to represent usual weekly purchases by France, Belgium and Germany and not Indicative of a broader demand The domestic demand for flour is so poor that many mills are clos'ne down while others, especially In the North west are getting a good part of their wneat from Canada. In addition to the conditions applicable to the wheat situation Itself, the general business depression in this country and Kurope, together with deflating -tendencies, promises again to invade commodity markets. 1 FUGHT OF GOLD TPA!N .
