j 1 Omaha Grain Omaha, June 15, 1923. Omaha receipts totaled 78 care, against 110 cars last year.* Total shipments were 116 cars, against 86 cars a year ago. There wae a somewhat better de mand for cash wheat on the Omaha market today, with prices unchanged to l-2o higher, the market being gen erally l-2c higher. Corn was also in good demand, l-4c to l-2c higher. Oata were unchanged. Rye was quoted unchanged and barley nominally un unchanged. The. Chicago futures market was strong and higher dur ing the early trading today, being favorably influenced by strong Liver pool wheat cables, further heavy rains In the flood district of Kansas, and the publication of a very bullish statement on the Kansas crop by a well known crop expert. The under • tone of both wheat and corn was much better than yesterday, although the full advance was not maintained, owing to a statement by Secretary Mohier that the flood damage in Kan sas had been exaggerated to some extent, and also to some beneficial rains In the northwest. Cash demand for corn was better than for some time, with offerings light, and the market held firm. B. W. Bnow "crop comment: Snow wires from Hutchinson, Kan.: Car window observation and talks with local grain men, convince me that the situation in Kansas is very critical. A few scattered showers to day and raining again tonight. For 50 miles In Cottonwood Valley, bottom land wheat is destroyed. Reports here indicate that water killed wheat on low spots will average above 5 per cent in the best fields and my observation leads me to believe it. Wheat is taking color and another week will commence harvest. More rain, even one more storm would de stroy a heavy percentage of the crop. This condition embraces fully half of the remaining acreage and repre sents the area that has had the best prospects. The crop has lost materi ally since June 1, and must have dry weather at once or suffer further harvest loss. Rail and motor travel still shut off through the big south-central wheat counties. Northwestern wheat situation: C. FI. Lewis & Co. of Minneapolis wires: There are growing complaints from certain sections of spring wheat ter ritory over the lack of moisture. Not • very Section is complaining hut ‘here are districts which in the months of April and May had only sbout half of their normal rainfall, md the entire spring wheat terri oi-y has had a deficiency of rainfall n the month of June . The southeastern situation of South Dakota seems to be amply supplied. But. the northwest sections of that <tate have had no where near their lOrmal requirements. Western North Dakota also -shows defiiciencies of rainfall as does a strip of territory along tile north-central portions of that state. Many letters received the past few days speak of wheat making slow progress and forecasts the probabll ty of wheat heading out very short. If we do not get general rains over the northwest during the next week we believe complaints wil be pretty general. Montana crop outlook: Logan & Bryan have reports from their Mon tana offices allowing that with the exception of the Great Falls territory the crop outlook is very favorable, in the Great Falls district, grasshop pers and drought have done some damage, hut even in that territory is some very good wheat. Liverpool wheat: Broomhall says: Futures eased in sympathy with Chi cago in spit# of the advance in Argentina. Flour millers continue to purchase actively and a\allable wheat in England has been reduced. The demand appears to be chiefly for Manitoba# and Argentina wheat at 47s and 46s. respectively. Weather today in the United Kingdom Is cold »nd consumption of flour Is increas Russel News wires: A moderate wheat business was worked over night and the indications were that there were some orders here this ' morning slightly below workable basis. Private Englisn cames were, rcitov ed firm, but exporter* said the prices indicated were below wjiat the wheat could be put together for here. About 500,000 bushel* rye changed hands yesterday, but this was said not to represent export business. New York Times prlntnns the fol lowing copyright dispatch, Moscow: Russia will have a surplus for ex port of two1 to three million tons of grain and perhaps more this fall. 1t Is announced unless abnormal weather Interferes with harvest. According to present calculations about two-thirds of this will be wheat and the re mainder rye, oats and barley. Finally. It is estimated from price values that the International price of wheat will not run over 70c in Amer ican money and rye not over 40c. Also there will he wheat for ex port at the same low International rate, not much of it probably this year, hut earnest of more to come. WHEAT. Ns. 1 hard winter. 1 rsr.

Chicago, June 15.—Wet weather over the southwest, unfavorable for harvesting of winter wheat, was the basis for the early sharp bulge today and the subsequent strength at Win nepeg helped to sustain the best part of the advance to the close. Prices averaged higher from the outset, there, being less pressure in evidence. Wheat closed 7-Sc to lc higher, coin was l-2c to lc advanced, oats were 1-Sc to l-4c higher, rye ruled 1 8c to 3-Sc up, and barley finished steady. It was quit© noticeable during the ses sion that the undertone in wheat was appreciably strengthened A report from B. W. Snow, well known expert now in the southwest, that winter wheat In Kin sas has gone back materially since the firat of Juno and ia now in the critical stage, led to much of the support. Support for torn. Corn encountered fairly good support from strong commission houses and local hulls, ‘'ash news was more encouraging. There were more buyers in the spot mar ket than any previous day in several weeks, and the basis closed %c advanced. Country offerings were again light. Buying of September oats by a house with northwest connections instilled a better feeling In this grain, prices mov ing up with the rest. Trade otherwise was of small proportions Rye was a tame affair. There was little interest on either side. Price worked to slight advances in sympathy with wheat. Provisions displayed a rising tendency and closed strong with buying by com mission houses and cash interests Lard was 7%c higher and ribs were 204 higher. Tit Notes. There was an absence of bear news in wheat today and some attributed this fact to the better technical conditions, the break of the previous day cleaning the market out of weakly held lines What llttln bear news appeared whs in the way of belittling the damage reports now emanating out of the southwest. Part of South Dakota received rainfall, but the greatest part of the epring wheat territory continued without the needed moiature. The northwest situation, how ever, has not become a serious factor in the trend to date, it being a little too early. Kansas and Nebraska had further heavy rains, amounting to cloudbursts in the' former state. Persistent strength in cash wheat st Winnipeg and the relatively firmer tone in the future market attracted more than the usual attention here late The No. l Northern sold there at %c. over the July compared with ’ic ov3r the previous day and under recently. Milling trade, especially in the south west. w*« pictured as unusually slow. Mills in Kansas were said to bo clos<ng flow ii .because i»f the poor demand for flour. Locally' red wheat premiums had another bad tumble, it being said, how ever. that this was due to the inferior quality of the wheat more than because it was offered freely. Milling demand abroad ia improved, according to recent cables. Corn and Wheat Bulletin. Por the 2 4 hours ending r.t 9 s m .

New York, June 15.— Distinct evi dence of support appeared in the stock market late today, following early weakness In which a number of industrial shares In the motor, tire, oil and sugar group reached new low levels. Professional operations de pressed quotations to a level where insiders were willing to take all of ferings. The one outstanding feature was the persistent strength of the transportation group under leadership of Atchison. New York Central and Southern railway common. Atchison sot to a new high prh •* for this vear snd buying in It »i> moiti ratiiml hv tumors that the board would follow Iho oxamale set by th« New York Centra! ami ralsi? the dividend to a . ner i ent annual hasia Sut h at tton, It is ne rlared. would he warranted by present earnings- which are at the rat** of more th»n double the yearly dividend now being paid. Motor* Are Heavy. Heaviness in the motor* vi* mo*t marked in Stwdebaker and (handler, whlrh eased off to now bottom figure* for the movement. Selling of motors was based on persistent reports of * fsinng off in production. Existence of the Ron om kind of competition In the t!r*» indus try and a small demand accounted Tor the weakness in those shares. IdOwer prices for sugar future* mn purted weakness to the sugar share* One of the biggest operator* In sugar storks, however, believe* that these share* have more than discounted te recent de cline in the price of sugar. Oil share* were being picked up late today on private advice* from the com* that the peak of production is believed to have been reached In California and that old wells in three of the gusher field* were declining rapidly in output It was also stated than an announcement would be made early next week of a reducing in t»ipo line run* in the midcontinent 4'npper I ndertone Steady* A. steadier undertone in the copper shares was due to knowledge that there ha- been a distinct turn for the better In tb<* copper metal market, with sale* or the metal at l&Uc. The foreign (ii»mand is unusually good and the domestic m auirv' is expanding _ . , Among the specialty* Davison ^bemlca! displayed pronounced strength, advancing more than % points. ....... The absorption of more than fllM®*-' OAQ of new offering* in two days had a stimulating influence on the general bond market Tranaportatinn Issue* were firm. Industrials were inclined to be easier.
