IN CHICAGO MARKET
Export Demand Slow Low
Temperatures Gave Plant
Severe Test
CHICAGO, .Inn. 14 -Wheat weakened
today on selling, due to predictions ot
rising lemperntures, ulth snow In thb
Southwest. The eitport demand was
slow nnd there was more pressure on
the cash position. The market opened
higher, following stlength ln tho spot
nrtlclo at TJrcrpont, but there was plenty
for snlo fiom the beginning, and the
new demand was too limited to glvo the
market any mnleriat support. There was
long stuff on tap nnd ttfo bit? bears
showed oppressiveness The market

llxports for the -teck, flour Included,
were 9,615, 4S5 bushels, against 10,989,371
bushels last week and 9,129,199 bushels

bushels, against 21i,210,oD bushels In the
preceding year
The Modem Miller said that the ex
tremely low temperatures over thn entire
winter w.hcat bell gave the plant a se

wns weakened by Insects It Is probnble
that winter "kill" will be shown.

HANKS GAINED $17,000,000
Interior Payments for Week Totaled
$20jp00,000
NRW YOrtK, Jan. 11. The known
moemcnts of money up to the close of
business yesterday indicated a gain by
tho banks from tho interior of approxi
mately HT.OOO.OOO. The amount of pay
ments to the banks from the Interior
;as $20,000,000 and payments by them
13,600.000. leaving a gain In this connec
tion of $14,400,000. Payments by the sub
treasury proper to the banks totaled
1)4,300,000, while payments by the banks
to the aubtrensury were but $12,600,000,
leaving a gain of ubout $1,700,000, while
Imports of gold from London for the
week totalled $1,000,000.
A year ago at this time the gain by
the banks amounted to approximately
J9.W0.0iX); two tears ago. siO.GS0.000: In
1913, $12,000,000; In 1912, $14,200,000, and In
1911 $10,800,000. Gains now being shown
by the banks are not at this time of
the year, because always after the be
ginning of the new jear there are pay
ments of an extraordinary character
made, which adjust themselves a little
later on.

Many publicists and politicians, who

A commercial union between Austria
nnd Germany would demand a common
pnrllament to be successful, nnd neither
wnnts thnt Germsnv would have to un
dertake a part of the responsibility for
Austrian finance, while It finds Its own
finance n sufficient burden.
Finally, If the Allies achieve tho deci
sive victory which is necessary for a
definite peace, the divorce of the German
Kmplrc from the Austro-llungarlnn mon
archy Is a sine qua noil.
A more Important nuostlnn Is what will
be tho nttltude of the Allies townrd th'o
Germanic Powers after the war. The war
will not put nn end. for example, to the
conl nnd potn'sli production of Germany.
Prance Imported both before the war,
and will need them again after the wnr.
This is not n question of sympathy, but
of business, as is also the question Of the
purchase of machinery nnd manufactured
goods
If that business Is not to go bnck to
Germany nfter the war there must bp n
commercial union between the Allies com
parable to the political union for the
purpose of wnr. Hut Premier Tlunclmun,
of tho Hoard of Trade, said hi the House
of Commons on Monday that It would be
Impossible to mnlntnln free trade be
tween Hngland and her colonies, nnd If
that can't be done It would be still less
possible to establish free trade among
tho Allies. Nevertheless, thnt Is the only
solution, and to this must bo added thn
application of tariff pressure to the var
ious States comprising Clcrmnn and Aus
tria. This Is tho only way to present
dumping under protection of customs
charges These solutions, howcer, arc
much too simple to be ndopled.
Tho Minister of Finance proposes to
tax war profits by a sliding scale, be
ginning with fi per cent, for profits
amounting to $7B,000 and 80 per cent, for
$500,000 or more.
