Chicago Grain Chicago, March Fears that the government report on farm reserve*, might make a different shoering than expected tended to remriot trading In all grains, and after light business wheat cloesed 3 8@5-8c higher while corn was unchanged to 3-8e lower, oats unchanged and rye 3-8(g>l-2 higher. At no time were wheat prices as low as the close of the previous day. Scattered buying, induced by an ad vance of 5-8d in Liverpool at the start, caused a higher opening, and there waa little or no pressure at any time during the day. May ran into commission house selling above $1.19 which checked the advance, while on the minor breaks there was moderate buying, prices having a range of l-2®5-8c for tha day. Liverpool Demand Slow. Liverpool continue* to report a alow demand for North American wheat, but the advance there wee due to buying by mills, while the continent is taking un sold cargoes of Argentina. Dry weather continue* in the southwest and the de tailed Kansas report showed that a con siderable aectlon outside of the western third received little moisture. Corn market showed a heavy undertone the greater part of the day, and while higher early, declined 64© 1ft c from the top and dosed at the bottom. May showed more strength than the July and gained **c on that delivery, due to an advance of 1ftc in the basis of the sample market. Receipts, 251 cars, with offering* on spot light. .There was talk of export business via the gulf, while country offering* con tinue light. Trade waa largely of a local character, with aelllng at the last mainly in the way of svenlng up for the govern ment report. Oats had a range of for the May and cloaed at the bottom in sympathy with corn. Private reports indicate ab normally heavy feeding of oats In Illinois and Iowa to livestock the past winter. Shipping demand continues alow, but de mand for fresh arrival* la good, with the haaia 14c higher, aa compared with May. Receipt*, 101 cars. Houses with northwestern connections were fair buyers of rye and with wheat firm an advance was easily attained. The two northwestern markets had 74 care. No export sale* were reported. Pit Notes The government report of farm re serves was regarded aa bearish on wheat and moderately bullish on corn and oats by most operators. Others considered It practically colorless. It showed the same as Snow's figures on wheat. 14,000,000 bushels corn and 16,000,000 leas oats. Conaumptlon of corn in the United States during the first four months of the »eason. including exports, as indicated by the government report on farm reserve* and available auppliea at terminal mar kets. was 1,965.000.000 bushels, compared with 2,022,000,000 bushels during the same period last year and a 10-year average dis appearance of 1.840,000.000 bushels. Total stocks of corn in all positions March 1 are 1.114.000.000 bushel* against 3.351.000. 000 bushels laat year, when the carryover at the end of the season was 179.000. 000 buehel*. Oata have been sued more freely this year than the trade expected. Since August 1 there has been a disappearance j of 875.000.000 bushel*, againat 797.000,000 bushels last year. Total auppliea March 1 were 450.000,000 bushels, or 80,000,000 bushels less laet year. Estimates on Indian wheat crop ar* being reduced. Probable yield in the united provinces is officially given at 90 per cent of normal. Private reports sre less optimistic. Wheat acreage In Roumanta has been reduced. Argentina wheat sold today at Rotter dam at price equal to 2V*c over Chi cago May for No. 2 hard winter f. o. b the gulf. Based on the government report on farm reserve* of wheat, plua Bradstreet’e available suppltee and average mill and country elevator atocka of 98,000.000 bush els. there waa 305.000,000 bushels in all position* in the country on March 1, com pared with 255,000,000 bushels last year. , Estimate* aa to the amount available for export range from 10.000.000 to 75,000. 000 buahel* during the last four months of ! the present season after allowing for con aumptlon. spring wheat seed and for a : normal carryover.

Financial New York, March 8.—The absurdity of the recent Wall street talk of an other immediate rise in the New York reserve bank's discount rate was shown by the bank's weekly state ment today. Its reserve ratio, X3'« per cent, was the highest reported since November, Us rediscounts tho lowest sinre the middle of January. What might happen, in the conceiv able event of an immense increase of speculative use of credit, is another matter. But such speculative expan sion would itself have direct and powerful effect on the reserve bank's loan account and reserve ratio. Opening with " irregular advances, the stock market broke somewhat vio lently at mid day, declines of 1 or 3 points being numerous, notably among the speculative industrial shares. The selling, like the buying of recent days, appeared to come mostly front profes sional operators and it was met in the later hours today by equally violent bidding up of scattered industrial shares, which left tho market ex tremely irregular at the close, hut with a largo preponderance of net declines. tvuil Snares Slump. The downward movement affected rail way as well as industrial shares This happened notwithstanding an cxtren. lv favorable car loading statement for the closing week of February.

The reichsbank statements throw some light on the operation. During December the bank's holdings of bills of exchange and checks" increased 175.000,000 marks. In January tho Increase was about the same, but In February tbs hug.* amount of 1.112.000,ooo was added, the total r * ing from 697,000,000,000 marks to 1,829, COO,000,000. Hall Street Votes.
