Dearth of buying orders, especially of any from Kin-ope, led to a setback lit wheat yesterday. The market closed heavy, l 1-2 to 2 cents net lower, with (September J 1.23 1-4 to $1.23 1-2 and December J1.2S 1-4 to $1.26 1-2. Com Most l-2st5-Sc and oats lost 1-ic 3-M.1-.C. l'rolsious were urn iiuugeu to 12 1-2 cents dow n. At first wheat displayed some firm nes, chiefly as a result of continued shrinkage of rural offerings. Lack of export demand, however, soon began to have a bearish Influence, which was greatly increased later by word that tho seaboard had resold a quantity of wheat to shippers here. It was said one Chicago shipper had taken back from an exporter Sl),UOO bushels on a canceled purchase. Under such cir cumstances speculative buyers held off and owners who desired to unload found it could only be done at a de cided disadvantage, the amount of bus iness being the smallest in months. Bears were disposed to contend that the smallness of country offerings was largely due to rains, which had inter fered with hauling. The close was at the lowest level of tho day. Corn proved to be weak from the start as a result of plentiful moisture and a likelihood of larger receipts sooth Large stocks in sight depressed oats, notwithstanding bullish estimates of the 1921 yield. Provisions went lower with hogs and grain despite export sales of 2,1)00,000 pounds of lard.

I STORE ORGA.N1ZAIION IN THE WORLD! BUT ARE TOO PROUD TO ASK CHARITY VIENNA, Aug. 4 (I. N. 8.) "The old people of Vienna aro slow to ask for help," writes Miss Clara Lands berg, of Chicago. 111., In an artlle on "Tho Austriun Intellectual Class" for publication in Kngland. "Only after they have been refused work repeated ly on account of their age, or because their health has completely broken down and they realize themselves that the world will pay them nothing for what they can offer, will they apply to the mission for aid. "They aro doing much for thom sclves. Every day In the Velksgarten one sees delicate old ladle taking children out walking. Ladles who for merly embroidered, or knit dainty gifts for their friends, now sell their handi work to help them to live. Ono old pensioned general has taken to paint ing and his room Is filled with pic tures of the Semmerlng taken from sketches made In this beautiful Aus trian resort In the happy tlmo when a yearly vacation thcro was a matter of course. A major's widow, whom ne cessity has taught to do beautiful mending, begs to bo allowed to mend and patch and darn In return for tho old-age ratio which the Friends' Mission gives to . specially deserving cases. One begs to be given transla tion to do, another offers to teach French or German, and still another seeks "any sort of clerical work.' Some ask pitifully If we cannot suggest some return they might muke anything to nhow their gratitude and to lessen the burden of taking a gift from a stranger. Government Iafca Dilemma. "Even when old people have writ ten to tho Friends' Mission that they are suffering for the necessities of life, they find it very difficult not to treat the visit of a kindly Investigator us a friendly call and evade wholly tho sub. Ject of their own need. If by chance, however, an unexpected gns bill to In paid in udvance has just been received and an old mother and her dellcato daughter ure discussing what they still have left to sell, tho Mission vis itor seems to them to be an angel sent from henven and the delicately reared ladles will confess In a burst of confi dence that their pension Is barely enough to buy them 0110 meal a day in tho city soup kitchen. Clothing, shoes, household linen, kitchen uten sils, even a spool of thread, have been beyond their wildest dreams of extrav aganco for several years. They pay their rent by letting rooms and by selling what they can sparo. "Old men who are pensioners ara t-siially more helpless than the women. One heard last winter terrible tales of deaths from cold and starvation be cause they would not ask for help even when they had sold everything of val us they had. Tho state recognizes In theory their hopeless situation and tries to help them meet tho ever ris ing prices with a small bonus, ' but Austria, all but bankrupt, has to ' chooso between paying adequato salar- r les to keep its active workers alive and adequate bonuses to its pensioners; and naturally It ends by choosing tho former."
