| MARKET, FINANCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL NEWS OF THE DAY Omaha Grain Omaha, March S. Omaha grain receipts totaled 132 rars as compared with 163 cars last year. Total shipments were 147 cars against 115 cars a year ago. Cash prices of wheat on the Omaha market were somewhat lower but thers was a fair demand at the de cline, samples changing hands at gen erally 2 cents lower. Corn followed the Jead of other grains and . sold 1 to 1 l-2e lower. Oats were 1-2 to 3 4c low er. Rye was quoted 2c lower, barley was weak and nominally unchanged. Light rains were general over the entire southwest, with a prospect for continuing over Sunday art<J this caused a very weak wheat market with corn and oats sympathizing. Prices at the start were only slight ly lower, but as the grain reports continued to come in sellftig increased in volume and the reaching of stop orders on the way down accelerated the downward movement. Around 2 cents lower for wheat and 1 cent low er for corn, good buying by commis sion houses checked the decline. WHEAT. So. 3 dark hard: 1 car, $1.17; 2 cars, $1.15 (smutty).

Chicago Grain ■ i ■— ■ , Chicago, March 3.—A partial break ing of the drouth over the southwest ern winter wheat belt, with bearish statistics, brought about scattered liquidation in all grains and, while there was fai? support on the decline, the lowest figures of the day were made about the last. Wheat closed l*4@2c lower, with the new crop de liveries leading, while corn was 7g@lc lower, oats H @ ^4 c lower and rye 1% @2c lower. Provisions were dull, with lard 2 H @5c lower and ribs un- j changed. Grain values held within relatively I narrow limits the past week, with rapid fluctuations. The close, how ever, was about the inside figures of the week on wheat, with net losses of %@lc, while rye was off 3l4#4*4c^ Coarse grains showed more strength corn gaining and oats c for the week. Lard was up 7%@10c and short ribs 2%®5c as compared with the finish of the previous week. Rain* In Nebraska. Heavy rains fell over part of the Kan sas, Ok'ahoma and Nebraska wheat sec tions and resulted in considerable change in sentiment. New crop deliveries were under the most pressure with scattered liquidation in evidence the greater part of the day, which offset aggressive com mission house buying, part of which looked like important short covering. Num erous stop loss orders were uncovered on the way down and rallies were feeble throughout the day. The break led to considerable export business in Manitoba wheats and sales late Friday and today were estimated at around 1.000.000 bushels Domestic ship ping demand slow with sample values lower. Liverpool closed S^l^d higher on prospect* of a better demand due to a settlement of tho Irish mill strike. Corn Prices Lower. With wheat weak and a slow export and shipping demand, a decline in corn was easily attained with stop loss orders caught at 74\c and under for May. At 74c for that delivery, there was buying on resting orders which checked the de cline. and the trade generally looked for a bullish report on farm reserve* to be issued by Snow on Monday. Country of ferings arc small. Keastern demand cur tailed by breaking of congestion on the railroads which Is causing the grain de layed In transit to arrive in liberal amounts. Hales of 100,000 bushels were made to go to store. Oats showed fair ran i at an e m to pressure and closed on a small rally. Messages from Minneapolis reported liberal sales of * ash grain the past W'eek, with a sale of 800,000 bushels. Part of thi£ will go to other markets. 'Receipts hero for tho week were somewhat In excosi of ship ment* j German government has bought 1.250.000 i buahels more rye from Russia, according f to private cables. This induced liquida tion by longs and with stop orders un covered the market showed more weak- ; ness than other grains. Norway hough* | a cargo of 240,000 bushels from seaboard j exporters Friday and Germany took a j cargo today. The tw-o northwestern inar- j kets had 93 cars Pit Note*. A world* rarryovrr of wheat of .47, aaa.aaa bushel* at the end of the preeent a-ason. compared with 178,000.000 buahcla last year. Is shown In a atatiatical aum mary of the worlds situation as com plied by the Armour Grain company. At tho beginning of the season the worlds surplus was 918.000,000 bushels, of which 417.000.000 bushels had been exported from .7u 1 v 1 to March 1, leaving eTl.JOO.OOO bushel* available on the latter date to satlafy requirement* of Importing coun tries On the basis of the average tak Inga of the first eight month* of the sea son. Importers will na»<l *ai4'#??u°?2 bushel* to June 80. and Is hardly likely to be above the average on account of the financial and political situation. Sentiment was decidedly bearish amongst wh<*at traders aft* r the emsa. with a belief in lome quarters that gen eral liquidation was close et hand, but while there have been rgins in many sections the bulls were not discouraged and called attention to the fact that the sections that needed moisture tho most i had received very little. A bullish view of the provision • tua tlon tak**n by a local packer. In view of the general business conditions the price of hams Is very low and atten tion was called to the marked falling /* f in the quality of the arrivals of hogs the past few days, indicating that there had teen a cleanup in many sections. With cotton at 30 c he looks for the south to take its full quota of side meats Kata are expected to be in demand through out the summer sea.*;,*n due to the h:gh price of oils and compound.

In volume of business, today's stock market overtopped the large business of the third Saturday In February and reached the highest total of Saturday since June 3, 1922. With most of the industrial shares this active business reflected the double process of new buying and of heavy realizing salts on accourtt of the week’s professional operators for the rise. The result was that, al though many of these stocks ad vanced further in the early trading, net declines were more numerous at the end than net advances. On the other band, most of the rail way shares moved strongly upward and closed around the .day’s best prices. How far the advance in this group was spontaneous and how far a result of maneuvers to hold the general market while "taking profits” in the industrials. It might perhaps he difficult to say. Two Possible Cour«e«. | The Inactivity and hesitancy of the rail way shares, at a time when the rest of the market wan advancing, may have re sulted from doubt over the a*h!e\ement of really satisfactory net earnings, even from the present full traffic, or It may have resulted from vague fear of hostile legislation. If the firat was the main hindrance to any real improvement of prices, events must still he awaiting to prove the facta If dread of j roposals by th» Brookharts and 1‘appers was the ' au*e, then at any rate congress will not be in session again until next December. The foreign exchange market did not shake off Its rer^nt lethargy; sterling, the Italian lire and the German mark ended unchanged from Friday and virtually at the previous week's closing prices. The frnne was higher; it did not reach the beet figure of the week, but it showed signs of good support. Spot cotton touched 30 90c a pound. It was only last Tuesday that It first crossed 30c.
