The i22fnfS-K0* w&*at changed hands at *Wr-° higher. Corn sold well at l©2c i°at w. "w,(1 ’^c hl*her* rye was Quoted lc higher anil barley nominally strong and unchanged. After a temporary easiness nrar the opening, Chicago futures market generally turned strong, the advance neing led ny the strength in corn. A better cash Inquiry is said to be developing hII round for grain and receipts are too light to satisfy the demand. Nearly all commission houses had orders to buy corn and shorts bees me anxious buyers also. The market advanced with a few setbacks and very little grain seemed to come out on advances. The market con tinued strong throughout the entire ses sion final figures being around the highest of tho day Market News. Russells* News wires: Inactivity pre vailed early anil reports indicated con tinued small trade. Weaker exchange rates were again a feature. Wheat Supplies—Russel Is’ News wires: The question of how much wheat there is available to coine forward from the country the balance of the year is im portant. During the grain corporation supervision the amount of the crop sold by the farmers, actually disposed of, varied from 79.J2 per cent of tho entire crop to 8 3 A3 per cent of the crop. Assuming^hat 84 per cent of the crop harvested last summer leaves the farm, it would mean that 659.000.000 hushela would be disposed of with normal farm consumption for seed and feeding. Russel Is* News analysis of the crop movement to January 1 Indicates that ^478.000,000 bushels have been disposed of leaving total visible in mill and country elevators and terminals es of that date of 203,000,000 bushels. The amount moved thus far would indicate that 151,000,000 bushels were still to come forward. The above esti mate is based on the idea of ordinary farm feeding Ot 25,004,000 to 30,000,000 bushelB. Russel Is’ News sa. s: In Bulgaria the wheat area estimated at 3.315,000 acres, compared with 4.487,000 a- res last year. The report refers to the <*nd of Novem ber ami covers almost the* entire coun try. Dry weafher during November per mitted the settling of only about 50 per csent of the area Intended to be seeded. States is shout 12 per cent less than last Fall wheat acreage 1n. t lie United year and in Canada is about 19 per cent legs. In the United States the area is 40.191,000 acres, compared with 45,950,000 acre* last fall In Canada the acreage Is 762,500, com pared with 947,000 last year. Liverpool cables: Futures weakening, due to the firmer exchange rate and the cheaper Manitoba offerings, together with the larger Argentine shipments and tho lower exchange quotation* from that country.

Chicago, Jan. 4.—Pronounced strength in corn today forced a hesitant wheat market higher and developed a broader trade throughout the list. Indications that the American farmer is not market ing corn freely, regardleea of the size of the 1923 crop and the stability of the cash article, induced a notable re vival of speculative buying power in the Pit. Wheat closed UCHUq higher, corn was 134©2o advanced, oats were ,4 © %c ad vanced and rye ruled *4c higher. Trade in wheat was dull the greater part of the session, but in the final minutes business was actiVe. Winnipeg wheat futures were independently strong all dnv. hut seemed to have little effect hero because of t lie drop at Liverpool and the belief that spreading operations were responsible. However, much of the late buying here wa« in the way of back spreading by a local operator. It was the Impression in the trade that much of the corn buying was ema nating from the east. A local profes sional was credited with engineering the transactions. Cash corn was in light of ferings and active demand, with the basis strong. Oats were higher with other grains. Commissiorf nouses were fairly good buy ers of this grain along with locals. Trade in rye was livelier. Buying of this grain against sales of corn at l*4c premium for the yellow cereal was re newed. Provisions were slow and unchanged. Lard was unchanged and ribs were 2%c lower to 5c higher. Pit Notes. The probable production of wheat dur ing 1 924, as estimated by various govern ment reports, will be smaller than last year. Winter wheat seeding in Canada. Russia and Rumania is cut. 7,000,000 acres. Tim acreage In Bulgaria has also been reduced 25 per cent. Winter wheat acreage in this country, sown last fall, was lowered 12.0 per cent. Available supplies are largo at this time but the trade appears to be inclin ing more toward the future, being of the belief that prevailing prices discount a great deal of the bear factors in the way of ample supplies which have Ijeen in evidence for several months past/ Above $1.08 for May wheat late 1n the day there appeared selling of an in fluential sort but shorts were covering at the time, and all offerings were well ab sorbed. Tho light primary movement of wheat, totaling 4K4.000 bushels, compared with 1.481).000 bushels last 3 ear, promises to continue for th® present. The. Department r>f Commerce revised downward its recent report on clearances of wheat from United States ports, or at least it excluded the Canadian wheat end flour which had been entailed in the offi cial exports. Clearances of United States wheat and flour ending November 30 are now pla^d at 7 4.ttno.aoo bushels com pared with 121.000.0UO bushels last year. C HICACiO MARKETS.

In addition, 47.600 bags of Porto Rico* gold to an outpert refiners at the same level.

Jan. 4.—The butter market here continued steady to firm on fancy butter and firm on 90-score and below with prices showing %c to lc advance on these latter grades. Most of the buying interest today was centered around me dium, undergrade# and storage butter.

The car market was firm and 8*-89 score cars advanced %« to lc, No 90 •core cars were available. Much of the firmness on the street and on cars was due to limited supply of fresh butter.

Jan. 4.—Stock prices moved upward today after an early preriod of ir regulary. but except in tha case of a few specialties, the net gains in most issues were limited to fraction**. Belling pressure wua again in evidence at the opening, particuiury in the oil. independent steel and motor shares, but this was lifted before noon on a resump tion of successful pool operations in other sections of, the list. Leather, rubber, fertilizer stocks, which have been lagging behind the rest of the list, were taken in hand during the day and some good gains recorded in those groups One of the Individual features of the session was General Electric which again grossed 200 for a net of more than 4 points on reports that 1923 earnings will total 818 a shnre and that an early capi tal readjustment was likely. United States Cast Iron ripe was another strong fea ture, moving up nearly 4 points to 74*4 Congoleum. which recently was placed on a |3 dividend basis, climbed 3 8s points to 49*4 American Can moved up one point to above 104, but United States- Steel Com mon, Baldwin and Studebaker show'ed only fractional gains. Shipping shares benefitted by reports of higher ocean freight rates. Marine preferred touching 32 84 and closing 77« hlghter at 317*. Much of the buying of this issue Is reported to have come from brokerage houses with Miami (Fla.), connections, giving rise to reports it was for the account or large traders wintering its that territory. Railroad shares developed strength during the afternoon. Northern Pacific, Union Pacific, the Rock Island preferred Issues. Gulf. Mobile & Northern, Katy preferred. Pero Marquette preferred. Fris co common and preferred and St. I.ouis. Southwestern all closing a. point or so higher. Car loadings for the week ended December 22. showed a further falling off. but this was regarded as seasonal, cur* rent loadings being well above those of a year ago In November, 1923. class 1 rail roads reported net operating income of $84,516,800. or at the rate of 4.68 per cent on their tentative valuation, accord ing to the bureau of railway economics. In November. 1922. the same roads re ported net Income of $81,691,900. or 4 62 per cent, and in October. 1923, $102,983, 691. or 4.79 per cent. Pan-American oil Issues made slight recovery from recent weakness on the official denial of reports of a material decline in Mexican light oil production. Reports that all Mexican oil fields were now in the possession of rebel forces was construed as meaning the revolution ists held the territory In which they were located, and not that they were being confiscated. Demand sterling made further recov- | ery from recent weakness, climbing more , than Pjc above $4.30. French francs touched a new low at 4 84*4c, but made | partial recovery later. Call money opened at 4*4 per ^ent. hut1 eased to 4*4 before the close. An easier I tone and broadening activity character- I ized the time money market, more funds 1 helng available at 4*4 per cent.
