MARKET, FINANCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL- NEWS OF THE DAY Omaha Grab Omaha, April 6. Omaha receipts totaled 267 cars, principally corn and oats, against 98 cars last year. Total shipments were 226 cars as compared with 183 cars a year ago. Cash wheat in the Omaha market was in better demand today with prices generally 1 cent higher. Corn was in good demand, 1*2 to 1 cent higher. Oats were steady 1-4 to l-2c higher. Rye and barley were quoted unchanged. Although Liverpool wheat cables did not respond to our strength of yesterday and export business was not quite so brisk, the Chicago futures market opened around last night’s close and advanced to new high lev els for the deferred futures in wheat and corn. Below zero weather in Canada and predictions of another cold wave extending into the winter wheat belt caused commission houses to buy and shorts to cover freely. There'was considerable profit taking on the up thru and some reaction, but the undertone remained firm. wheat. No. 2 dark hard: 1 car, $1.22 (smutty): 1 car, $1.20 (smutty); 1 car, $1.19.

Chicago, April 6.—All grains shared In a broadening of speculative inter est today and while profit taking was liberal on the hard spots the fresh support sufficed to carry the deferred | deliveries of wheat and corn to the i highest prices on the crop. Bullish news predominated. Wheat closed He to higher, corn l%c higher, oats to He up, rye He to a8c higher and barley closed steady. A feature of the wheat trading was the excellent buying of the September option credited to a leading elevator Interest. Commission houses had a1 steady stream of buying orders throughout the late months, while the May option ran into material selling by local operators when it touched $1.22, dropping finally to a fractional gain for the session. ( urn Trade Active. Strength In torn was quite pronounced. Trade was active .most of the day. Bull ish news predominated. Receipts In this market were light, while Illinois and Iowa repotted farmers not selling. Oats worked higher. Outside buying was larger, but soiling in the way of profit taking held the advance in check. Rye failed to •become excited, although Norway was credited with taking three cargoes the past two days at $1 over the Chicago May, and asking for more offers. Provisions were easy and dull early, but strength in grain* brought In outside support, houses with eastern connections leading. Lard and ribs closed 5 to 7Vic higher. Pit Notea. The presence of green bugs has been noted in the wheat finds of Oklahoma for several days, but today's reports from there were the first to tell of damage done. The weather through that state was; pictured as favorable for the maintenance of the pest. Kxperts traveling through the southwest were generally pessimistic In their reports, and the general Impres sion was that the crop could stand a good soaking rain quite well. There seems to be a tendency on the part of most experts to forecast a heavier abandonment of wheat acreage this year. The Nebraska Department of Agriculture says that while condition of the plant In j that state is uncertain, reports Indicate damage from low temperatures last month. Also it was pointed out that much of the crof) planted last •utumn never sprouted, and the conclusion was for unusual abandonment. In Canada winter weather prevails and no spring work of any kind hns been don* to date, according to the majority of reports. Talk of a late spring is gathrr !rg more attention in the grnln trade, and is no doubt particularly responsible for the broader interest that has boon wit ref-sed In the deferred option of wheat. Liverpool opened with a show of strength said to be In response to the stability of the American markets on the previous day. However, prices there re acted under hedging pressure from Im porters who had been taking wheat In the North American recently. CHICAGO MARKETS. By Updike Oraln Co. AT. 6212; JA. 284_7. Art. | Open.

Kansas rtty, Mo, April 8 Butter. s;g0e and Poultry—Market unchanged. Financial By BROADAN WALL. By Universal Service. New York, April 6.—Except for sharp breaks in the fertilizer shares, the stock market responded with higher prices to the optimistic state ment made by Secretary of the Treas ury Mellon and the announcement by the American Railway association of huge expenditures to be made for new rolling stock. Shares of equipment companies showed pronounced strength early un der leadership of American Locomo tive and Baldwin Locomotive. Trans portation shares did better, but the general public refuses to show enthu siasm in this direction. Announcement by several refiners of higher prices for refined sugar im paired early strength to the sugar shares, but most of the gains were subsequently lost. Oil Shares Irregular. Oil shares were irregular owing to sharp breaks In the price of Farific OH and Associated Oil, which It controls. Business was on a lighter scale, total i transactions being less than in previous | sessions this week. Investigation shows I that the rgeent rumors of a possible in crease in rediscount rates have had a ao bering influence on speculation. The character of dealings In stocks Is highly professional. Floor traders are for the most part, «n the ahoit side. The steady increase in the production of oil in California led to tumors that the price of California crude would be re duced shortly. Pacific Oil was sold In heavy volume on persistent rumors that tho dividend will be passed. Motor Shares Stimulated. Announcement by the National Automo bile Chamber of Commerce that the out put of passenger cars and trucks In March has reached a new high record of 346.363, had a stimulating influence on the mo tors. Jt also stated that the output for the first quarter of this year was more than double the same period in 1922. one of the most favorable develop ments was the pronounced strength shown by the general bond market, prac tically all departments sharing In tbs betterment. Cotton contracts were lower and somo of last month’s biggest bulls are reported to have disposed of their holdings. Range of prices of the leading stocks furnished by Logan Sc.
