    MARKET, FINANCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL NEWS OF THE DAY
Omaha Grain
Omaha, Jan. 2.
Total receipts at Omaha for the
three days were only moderate, aggre
gating 390 cars of all grains, includ
ing 190 cars of wheat, 120 cars of
corn and 50 cars of oats, and com
pared with a total run of 236 cars last
year. Total shipments, 174 care,
against 60 cars last year.
Notwithstanding the weakness in
other markets, our cash market was
fairly steady, with a fair demand for
all grains at the decline. September
wheat sold 2®4c lower. Corn was
Ha®2Vic lower. Oats were Hi®Hie
lower. Rye was quoted 2®2’ie lower,
and barley 2c lower.
After a steady opening all grains
took a decided downward slant and
a sharp decline all round resulted in
the early trading. May wheat being
particularly weak and coarse grains
sympathizing with the weakness in
wheat. Stop loss orders were uncov
ered on the way down, which acceler
ated to decline. However, a good ex
port business was reported as having
been done in wheat, corn and rye,
but with no quotations given out, and
this steadied the market.
A good sized increase in the visible
s pply of wheat and corn caused fur
ther weakness in the late session.

Chicago Grain
Chicago, Jan. 2.—Liquidation was
on in the grain market from start to
finish, and with stop loss orders and
a lack of aggresalvo support, prices
cropped rapidly and finished within
a fraction of the bottom. Wheat lost
3 3-8@4 l-4c, corn 2 l-4®2 3-8c. oats
ll-2<8>17-8c and rye 2 l-2c.
At no time did the wheat market
have a rally of lc a bushel. There
was persistent selling of both May
and July by strong commission
houses, and while there were times
when it appeared as though the mar
ket was going to rally, each upturn
was followed by a decline to a new
low on the present downturn.
At the inside figure, May wheat
showed a 8 3-8c drop under the high
of last Thursday and the trade had
the impression that the lending local
longs were gradually slipping out of
their lines. There was an absence
of hysterical breaks which usually
mark the end of liquidation. It was
hard to trace the buying throughout
the day. Export demand was fairly
active, but news, both bullish and
I bearish, was ignored as the result of
i the continuous selling.
longs Sell Corn.
Local longs sold corn heavily from the
Mart and some of the professionals who
i bough? r< t 71c* and over late last cvf' k
i WP,it out of their holding;; around 70c
i for the May. A sharp break in c; -U
nrices. due to a change Jn the trading to
May basis, had some effect on values,
with actual sales showing 2433c under the
l«\el prevailing on Saturday. Receipts
were 921 cars. Krporters were after corn
and a good business was put through at
the seaboard, but bullish news had little
infldenc Buying on resting orders under
70c for May checked the decline.
Liquidation was on in oAls and there
was noth nr In the news to cause any de
cided bullishness in sentiment. With other
grains weak the decline was easily at
tained. Shipping demand was fair, with
sales of 275.000 bushels, including 00,000
| t-uaheia to exporters.
Houses* with northwestern connections
were persistent seller* of rye and with
the weakness in wheat the market showed
a heavy undertone from the start. Local
handlers solid 40,000 bushels rye to ex
porters and the seaboard Halnied UUO.OOo
bushels had been sold abroad.
Pit Notes.
So much groin ha? been put on the
markets tht post four days that a large
increase in the buying power Is regarded
n« necessary to absorb the offerings and
sustain valuts. In rune it fails to appear
lower prices are looked for.
Liquidation of immediate lines of
grains, especially wheat and corn, by
local and eastern holders, ha? been on
"f late and there are few left. The short
Interest has increased and those who have
old out await further drop before get
ting in again.
Rig receipts of all grains the past few
• eeks have been an important factor in
"i rating weakness and selling of grains
V all classes of traders. All the big com
mission houses have had u raft of selling
orders, making it easier to trade the
• vMlng than the buying.
Winnipeg was weaker and closed at the
bottom, with wheat prices off 2B*c to
■ *4c on futures. Buying against puts was
the main sustaining feature of the break.
It was reported that a large line of
corn has been taken from an industry
and I he May given in exchange. The in
dustry desiring the corn for future used
i*nd preferred to carry the May. All the
cash corn here of late has been picked up
by a few elevator interests who have
held the May as a hedge

Financial
New York, Jan. 2.—Irregularity of
price movements characterized to
j day's markets, in contradiction to a
| certain degree of buoyancy which was
a feature of the closing markets of
1 1922. In the case of stocks there was
a robust upturn at the opening, with
a decline in values later on and the
bond market, while showing some de
gree of strength, was not particularly
Indicative of that reinvestment demand
which so frequently is mentioned in
connection with the turn of the year.
The foreign exchanges were strong
but in the commodities markets there
was weakness, both grain and cotton
going to lower levels. There was little
in the news developments to account
for the irregularity that existed and
particularly was this true with rela
tion to domestic markets. The foreign
exchanges, to some extent, were ruled
by the prospect of developments
abroad, such as might come to light
| as a result of the deliberations of the
Conference of premiers at Paris. On
| the whole, however, it was clear that
I the markets were drifting, awaiting
some definite indication to determine
the course of prices.
Heavy Realizing Sales.
In the stock market a strong opening
Rave hope- for a continuation of the up
turn in prices, but it soon became evi
dent that the market was being called
upon to face heavy realizing .sales. Not
a few of those who garnered profits <n
the upturn of last year were disinclined
to take the monetary value of thos profits
In definite form for the reason that taxa
tion would impose a heavy burden. Thus
there was a measure of .selling to be ab
sorbed In today’s market which acted ms
a weight upon prices and which nullified
such buying for long account us de
velop*'I as a result of the optimistic fore
casts in business and finance regarding
future months.
The foreign exchanges were strong,
probably as a reflection of th'' renewal of
conferences between the premiers at
Paris. Th^re was an optimistic tone in
such cables as crime tc* hand and whilu
some of the proposals were drastic, there
was a disposition to believe that this
reassembling of the conference might
bring about some definite elan acceptable
to j.%', which would prove a stabilizing
Influence to the European situation.
Sterling advanced to $4.64% and dosed
only slightly under this figure for a gain
of lc. as compared with the close on
Saturday. French francs were strong and
the same was true of exchange on Rome.
Wall Street Topics.
It was reported in banking circles that
the Treasury department is discussing
with New York bankers a new Issue of

large syndicate headed by New York in
vestment flrmr. It was renorted that the
Issue* will be between $76,000,000 and
$100,000,000.
A director of the Reading company,
in discus sing th.* extent of the company’s
coal lands, stated that i recent survey
led to the belief that the concern pos
sessed enough coal to supply'its average
number of clients for the next 200 years.
The order for 500 tank cars recently
placed by the Cron Tank Car company
with the General American Tank Car
company has been canceled by mutual
consent of the comr-anie*- The reason for
cancellation was not hade public, but
it was assumed that the cancellation had
to do with the f.tiertic n of delivery of
the new cuits. Th** order, in turn, was
placed with the American Car and
Foundry company.
