MARKET, FINANCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL NEWS OF THE DAY i ars a year ago. Cash wheat on the Omaha market Was in fair demand, with prices about unchanged. Corn moved rather slow ly, with sales made at unchanged to '4c higher. Oats were about unchang ed. Rye was quoted l(4c lower and barely nominally unchanged. First prices of grain in the Chicago future market were slightly higher than last night’s final figures, and these advances were followed by still further gains on account of the map not showing any rain in the winter wheat district of the southwest, but the option met with realizing sales and a reaction occurred. The down • turn was emphasized by a forecast for partly cloudy and unsettled weather for tonight and tomorrow in Nebraska and Kansas. Private esti mates of the amount of wheat in the farmers’ hands March 1 were also railed bearish. Good support was ac corded the market around inside fig ures and the close is not much chang ed from yesterday. w iiti-A l. No. S dark hard: 2 cars. $1.17, smutty; J car, $1.15. smutty.

Chicago Grain Chicago. March 2.—Grain values held within narrow limits. Prices fluctuated in an erratic manner with out getting far in either direction, but the undertone became heavy toward the last and wheat finished 1-403-Sc lower while corn was off l-8c, and rye l-8®.l-4c and oats were unchanged to 5-8c lower. Outside trade in wheat was light tho greater part of the day. Pit operators were disposed to bo a little bullish early on the continued dry weather in the south west and forecast for a cold wave, but above $1.19 for May and $1.16 for July there was fair selling and when tho early buyers tried to sell out they found support light, the finish be ing about the bottom. Toward the Inst there was some selling on a bearish construction placed on the general wheat situation by George K. Marcy, president of the Armour Grain company. Houses with eastern connections sold May and July. There was little or no change in the cash situation, with the export demand slow. Premiums on spot were about unchanged. Com Market Hearts. While there was fair local and com mission houso buying of corn early, due to the bullish private report on farm re serves Issued the previous day but the market reacted quickly after an advance of a* (rf He. Trade was light and the market, easily influenced. Export and domestic demand Is alow atjd after the first rush <*f buying was over there was a disposition to ignore the farm reserve estimate. Country offerings to arrive were light desr!te relatively high bids Receipts .165 cars with the basis on spot showing little change. Action of oth r grains was the dominat ing influence In oata. but the market Showed resistance to prtsaure except for the September which cased off under lim ited support. Cash demand Is relatively slow. Receipts. s4 cars. Reports that around 1.600.000 bushels rye had been sold at the seaboard In the past io days, mainly to Norwa>, and only fart of It had been given out a* being taken by foreigners previously led to a little buying of futures at the start, but j the market eased "ff with wheat and closed easy. The two northwestern mar- 1 kets had 93 cars Pit Notes. Action of the grain markets was a de elded disappointment to many of the lo ad bulls and there was a decidedly bear ish sentiment noted after the close In some quarters, with a belief that the av erage of prices Saturday would be lower. Wheat market shows no decided trend at the present time. May, at the close, was at the same figure as on January 2, but July has gained G^c and the Septem ber 7c since that date, and commission houses continue to express tho bdtef that the new crop deliveries will shortly feel the effect of the unfavorable outlook in the western sections of the belt. Reports of dust -dorms in Nebraska attracted lit tle attention. George E. Marry, president of the Ar mour Grain company. In a long summary of the grain situation, take* a very bear ish view of conditions, and expressed the belief that profits should be taken on all grains at present prices, or especially on, bulges North America must export l-.-j 000.00© bushel.- a week from now until ; June ;:0 to bring stock* down to where j they were at the end of the season in 13-2. He says it looks as though tho price of Vorn discounted th< small farm reserves. Specula f or*, he says, are for the most part carrying the 15O.0On.OOO bushels of all grain in the United State* and Cana, dian visible supplies. In discussing the slow eastern demand for cash corn and oats, a local man said this was duo partly to the fact that the (astern grain congestion Is Just commenc ing to be relieved. New England dis tributors bought freely some time ago and still hove grain enroute that WM *• hipped from Chicago in December, with , ongestion relieved, the gruin is expected to come forward in bunches and Is likely to make a weak t^ish situation for a Argentine exportable surplus of corn from the new crop U estimated by Broom-j hall at 100,000.000 bushel*, or 12.©n0,0ni| bushels than lias been exported so far during the present seaaon.

Financial New York, March 2.—With the .largest transactions in a fortnight, prices tm the Stock Kxchango rose again today, the larger advances once more affecting shares of trading and manufacturing companies. Changes for the day varied widely and there were a few declines, hut advances of a point or more were numerous. The railway shares again moved lit tle and were only lightly dealt in. This was in spite of a good deal of figuring on the January earnings, some of the estimates of total results predicting net revenue fully double that of January, 1922. There was not much discussion of the plan of rail way consolidation proposed to the In terstate Commerce commission by President Holden of the Chicago, Bur lington & Quincy. * Plans Intrregtiiii, All alternative plana In this matter era interesting, because tbe grouping of the present companies into a few great ays tefiis, as bus teen c lrt*ndy done In En; vii«l would seem to bt a matter of ulti mate certainty, and because, therefore, rcary divergent view of the alignment inaltMK the character of the problem clearer. Mr. Holdens proposal Is largely bsvd on Reaping the Northern Pacific ami Gr**at North-rn in one group and the Burlington with them, whereas the tenta tive Interstate Commerce commission plan would have separated the two larger companies. His Idea of tying up the 8t. Paul in stead of th« Chicago and Northwestern with the Union Pacific is another point of disagreement. It must %»*- added that these last proposals, which effect only the western railways, raise simpler prob lems than does consolidation In th» east. Tbe commission's hearings have already shown that the question in the west is. who shMli get the prosperous lines of the second order. In the east the main ques tion seems to be, who shall be made to take over the weakling*? Etrliange Stationary. Fo- the third successive day the prin. cipal European exchange rat* stood prac. ticslly motionless today. This reaching of something like equilibrium, after the excessively wild swaying about of rate* in the earlier weeks of th* year, is not easy to explain except on the supposition that tile speculators are puzzled over t he failure ot anything «tartllug to happen as a result of the Ruhr experiment, and that buying and selling of exchange for legtti. mute commercial purpose* is now again going on freely, without the postponing <*f such transactions because of changing values. The caoe of the German mark fa more peculiar. It Is now eight or nine days since the \ rice of the mark has stirred from the figure, .0044, to which It settled after tbe German government's "sales of foreign currencies" sustained the market. Wall Ktrrel Note#. Probably no development In the rail road field since <ho stormy days of argument over the problem of govern ment ownership ha« caused as much dis cussion among railroad men as the n*-w proposal advanced for the ronscilid&t ion into four great systems of th** roads west of the Mississippi river. Comment on the subject was guarded, opinion, how ever, being sharply defined either for or against It. The hankers as x rule con sidered th*j sch*mo feasible while western railroad executives express*.! themselves as being anywhere from doubtful to hos tile The biggest objection advanced hy railroad men is that the systems operat ing In the southwest would be compelled to absorb a number of weak line* The action of t'nlted Ftaf*s Steel com mon In today * market operations evidence, according to Wall street opinion. ih«t it has loosened from the *h»ckl*i which have l««en holding this stock back since, the beginning of tho year Since then It has moved in a very narrow range of about I points, while stocks In oth*-r sections of the list ha . e been moving up from 5 to 15 potnta or more.

A cording to the plan of financing by which Anaconda took over control of the Cfail# interest an issue of $50,000,000 Anconda 15-year, 7 pe*» cent convertible debenture bonds due February 1, 1938 were put out, which were con* v *rtbile info stock .t nnjr time prior to February 1, 13 ;3 at various rate*, of which the firs* $10 000.000 presented will Si converted a» $53 a shat*, the next $10 - 000,0"0 at $?•* a xbar* and so on up to th* last $10,000,000 which la convertible at $65 ft share.
