_MARKET, FINANCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL NEWS OF THE DAY;_ Omaha Grain Omaha. May 15. Receipts at Omaha,continue to run very light and totaled only 26 cars against 96 cars last year. Total ship ments, 78 cars, as compared with 180 cars a year ago. Cash wheat on the Omaha market was in fair demand, prices unchanged to l*2c higher; offerings of corn were no light it was almost impossible to make a market as receipts were only 4 cars; prices nominally 2 cents high er. Oats were 14 to .‘1-4 cent higher. R.ve was quoted 1 cent higher and barley nominally unchanged. Sales of domestic wheat to the l’nit ♦*d Kingdom and France at full mar ket prices injected a more optimistic f* cling into the Chicago futures mar ket today resulting in a higher range <*t prices. Local operations were in clined to sell on the advances, but there was good support on the mi nor dips. Trade was not large and the market was easily influenced. Shorts covering was responsible for a fair advance at one time, but the n Id urn with good selling orders and highest prices, were not maintained. Karly export sales; Wheat esti mated at *100.000 bushels manitobas. The Fnited Kingdom buying some marby wheat, while Norway was re ported to have taken a cargo. Otic exporter said ('nited Kingdom offered t«> cancel wheat with him Corn bus! ness reported as quiet. Germany was said to have been fair buyer of rye at 1*8 12 to 99 guilders. «.eorge .M.

Some thin fields, also some wheat a li-ile *»ff t.olot as a result of drouth Xo farm work being done as soil is too wet. Hioomhnll Liverpool t able says: There is only a moderate trade passing in wheat in the 1’nited Kingdom mar Nets hut the tone of the situation ap peats a trifle steadier r...%* ling the better tone in American markets. The demand in general is slow, while fan* ly liberal quantities of manitobas are heitig put forward. There is a fair business in Platte « "in. but trade in American sorts con t imies very slow. Buenos Aires The market f«>i wheat yesterday was quiet, hut stead ier, closing 1 2c higher. Demand was not active, hut there was some local, absorption in sympathy with tin steadier tone in America. fountry offerings continue in fairly liberal vol ume and the movement of wheat from interior to the ports is being well maintained. Weather has been gen erally favorable for the new crop plowing. Weather is clear and cold, which is favorable for the condition ing of the new corn crop. The move ment from the interior to the ports is enlarging. Markets for corn yes lerday closed 1 2c lower. Illinois Central Crop Report—Illinois: Wheat making fair progress; oat> looking fairly good. Some corn being planted; normal acreage expected. Iowa: Weather generally favorable. , tring wheat doing; well. Winter wheat has made good growth. Oats above ground and looking good. Good progress made in corn planting. Mea lows and pastures have improved. Bussells News of New York, wires; About 200,000 bushels wheat was worked yesterday and not before le- | ported and it was stated In cash circles that the only demand today appeared to be for nearby gulf wheat. It was claimed that there have recently lieen some inquiries In the market for new top hanl Wheat, but as far as can be learned, little or no new crop wheat has been worked Kxport wheat sales late yesterday and today estimated at i 400,000 bushels; rye salt s estimated j at 200.000 bushelfc; no corn sales con- ; flrmable. Winnipeg wans Thomson * MeKin non: It niny lie a poor time to talk of this, but on May 1 we had west and head of the lakes including wheat in fanners' hands about 100.000.000 bushels wheat and It figures 1.000,000 every working day until the new crop to use up aqrt we have not approached this figure The load is heavy and the demand lukewarm Think price our wheat will be determined by the size of Kuropean pocketbooks, with your country closed to us. Thlmann Grain <’i. of Chicago says: At the beginning of the season Bloom hall estimated that Kuropean crops would be about 200,000.000 bushels shorter than the year before, 1922. but estimated at the time that on ac count of economies, import require ments would not he exactly that much more but probably in the neighbor hood fo 100.000,000 to 150,000,000 bush els more than 1922. So far the ex ports nf wheat from the various coun tries from July 1 up to date were 060. 000.000 bushels of wheat and flour this year, compared with 655,000,000 bushels the year before, or only 11. 000,000 bushels more, showing the great economies of the impoverished countries. The I nlted States and Can ada contributed .187,000.000 against 300,000,000 in 1922 or 27,000,000 more. At the same time the I'nited States and Canada together raised this year about 140,000.000 more than in 1922, so there must he approximately 100, 000.000 bushels more wheat in these two countries at the present time than 1 here was last year.

The general list sagged off somewhat under the pres 1 sure, but taking the market as a whole it acted remarkably well, con sidering the extent of the preceding day’s tally. Announcement by the National As sociation of Manufacturers that a sur vey of the business situation revealed production CO per cent in excess of last year with consumption increased I that much more, if not more, hud a favorable influence at the opening of | trading. Irregularity prevailed until , the early afternoon when, the rem nant of the bear party unleashed a substantial amount of Steel common and Studebaker, causing some un settlement for a time. When it was discovered that stocks were scarce the shorts began covering so that i most of the losses were almost en tirely recovered.
