SAX \X’S / \NSKHt XOO r Market, Financial- and Industrial News of the Day Omaha Grain Omaha, Dec. 7, Around the opening our grain prices were slightly lower but good buying was apparent on the dip and 200,000 bushels hard winter wheat was re ported worked for export via the gulf. Torrential rains, were reported in Argentine which will delay the harvesting and movement of the new ,^-op wheat In that country. Kirm i ess of foreign exchange and a report that Nebraska wheat fields were cov ered with Ice, also had some affect. Reports front the country said farmers were not free sellers of corn on the recent decline. Total receipts at Omaha were 153 cars as compared witht Its oars last year. Total shipments were 153 cars against 119 cars a year ago. Cash wheat was In good demand with prices generally 2c higher on the local exchange. Corn was steady gen- , erally lc up. Oats were Vitolc higher ; being generally Vic. Rye was quoted j 2c higher and barley nominally un t hanged. WHEAT.

Chicago, Dec. 7.—Torrential rains were reported to have fallen in parts of Argentina and delayed harvest and damaged the quality of the new wheat crop, hut the market, while showing a firm undertone, ran Into free, sell ing-around $1.17 for May and at the last was up only over the fin ish of the previous day. Corn was up % $ 1 ’ i with December leading, while oats were H higher and rye un changed to xic higher. Liverpool wheat prices wore %<@) IVid lower at the opening on pros pects of large Argentine clearances for the week and a slow milling de mand. hut closed strong with Decem ber lower and the deferred fu tures up Local traders sold at the start bill their offerings were absorbed by strong commission houses, part of which was attributed to east ern account. Sentiment Mixed. At $1 17 for May there was fiee selling h> local house* and buyers were quickly filled up. Sentiment was somewhat mixed with a disposition shown to keep away trom the Bull side on bulges regardless of the news Export business was fair and included 250.000 bushels hard winter ftom tho gulf nt 9c over December and St. Louis sold 65,000 bushels to golf ex porters. (’ash premiums here were ’4 >4c higher on hard winter. December corn acted a. little tight and while selling even with the May early, closed 1 *»c over that delivery Buying throughout the day was largely of a local •haracter, with the strength In wheat the main Influence. Messages from Iowa indicat'd fanners had ceased selling where bid-' were reduced below 60c at country loading points. Export demand was slow. No change was shown in the brt.-is mi spot with receipts 248 cars. Argentina exports for the week are esti mated ht i.400,000 bushels, against 2.485 - 000 bushels lstsf year. Italian crop is estimated at 70.000,000 bushels, or 23,000, 000 bushels less than last year. Oats heltl within relatively narrow limits and In the main reflected the action of other grains Domestic ship ping demand remains fair. Receipts, 129 I ca rj. Rye showed a heavy undertone and while there was fair buying credited to • astern account, it was not aggressive. Export demand continues with sales at the seaboard estimated at 150,000 to 200, " 0 bushels, and there were unconfirmed i'< ports of 200.ooo bushels in addition. The tv- •• northwestern markets received S7 cars Pit Notes. Higher rabies and unfavorable weather reports are expected from Argentina Fri day and traders here look for better prices for a tln-^’. Whether they will hold was dependent upon the amount of buying developed The short Interest was reduced on th© bulge and there was wheat on the market from local holders at the top, most of which was taken back on recessions at the clot><*. The northwest was a good buyer of wheat futures and reported a fair milling demand. The car situation in that emo tion t* better, but all the railroads there are short of motive power and cold weather may curtail arrivals for a few days. Karin bureau interests and others who are at work on a constructive plan to ' facilitate exports of grains through es tablishing of an extensive system of long time credits abroad say work Is progress ing favorably and that the plan will be ready for introduction through a bill In congress In the near future. Foreign ex change has been the stumbling block, but this is being removed. Those who have not understood th© methods of handling th© exchange by grain exporters have had it explained satisfactorily, which has aided in clarifying the eltuation. Gulf wheat sold recently at 20c over December, when transportation was bad, j but of late It has dropped to 9c over. St. Leuls sold 66,000 bushels hard winter to the gulf and 260,000 bushels were re- , ported as sold for export late Wednesday. 1 New York exporters said that owing to the higher staling exchange rates bids on wheat were on about the aarne basis as the previous day. Despite an easier car situation In ttre west primary arrivals of corn for four days this week have been 6,180,000 bush els. against 6.793.000 bushels last year. Wheat arrivals for four da>s aggregate 7.233.000 bushels, against 4,811,900 bush els last year. CHICAGO CLOSING TRICES. By Updike Brain Bo. DO. 2627. D.c 7.

Omaha lies I,cawed Wire Nev$ York, Doc. 7.—The story of the advance in stocks, in foreign exchange and in most of tho Liberty bonds was repeated today, although at a slack ened pace and with some incidental re action. In the news of the day there was little to stimulate either advance or decline in financial markets; yet the news of a routine character was interesting. It. included the final sum mary of railway earnings in October, showing net results, despite the large gross revenue, some $20,000,000 below those of October. 1321, with a per centage of property valuation of 4 05 as against 6.4 in the same month of last year. TThis i^ close to the ratio of July and August and less than in some other months of 1322. It was so easy to interpret, the week ly federal reserve report. Usually both rediscounts and note circulation have decreased in the first weeks of December, but in the last week the increase of rediscounts has been $25, 000,000 and of circulation $31,000,000. Gold Reserve Shrinks. That the entire loan expansion was ac counted for by tiie New York Reserve hank and the entire addition to outstand ing notes by other reserve banks does not clear up the showing. It is accompanied by a decrease for the week of $27,000,000 In the system's gold reserve. making shrinkage of $44,000,000 (luring the eight weeks since the maximum was readied on October 11. Since the gold exports to Canada in this period have been more than offset by gold imports and new production, this decrease means gold cer tificates put into general circulation.
