Total shipments were 173 cars as compared with 243 cars a year t-FO. Cash wh^^t on the Omaha floor was in fair demand with prices about unchanged from yesterday. Corn sold generally unchanged to l-2c lower, oats sold 1-4 to l-2c lower, going at generally I-4c lower prices. Rye was quoted unchanged and barley un changed. During the early session grain prices dragged lower.

There was good buying orders in tire new crop options in wheat on the decline. Re ports of a dry condition in the south west continue to come in, causing the strength in July and .Sept. wheat, while the May presents a dragging tendency, owing to the stock export demand. WHEAT.

Technical position in all grains was weakened by Thursday's bulge and it took but moderate selling to start values downward. Closing trades were at net losses of 5S@3-4c on wheat with May leading. Corn was off 7-8c, oats l-2ijf7-8c and rye 3 4@l l-8c. A majority of the local longs took the selling side of wheat early and found support lacking. The early break was checked at $1.19 12 for May on buying on resting orders with a rally of around lc at one time on scattered buying, but when renewed pressure appeared prices dropped rapidly. The May showed pronounced weakness, while the July was very strong, at times with an excellent class of buying headed by houses with eastern ami southern connections but it eased off toward the last with the May. (iiunw at Winnipeg. The trade, which Is apprehensive over the foreign situation, 1% not quite certain hi to whether development® abroad are bullish or bearish. Leading interests con tinue to talk bearish, and there is no evi dence of extensive export demand, while stocks at terminal markets are Increasing I>ry weather talk from the southwest. ! with green bug reports from Texas had i little i ffect on the July. There was buy ! ing of May here against salas at Winnipeg. ! but the latter market gained ?»c on <’hi i - agi* for the day. Liverpool closed j higher with a better milling demand. Heavy profit taking In corn the previous ; day. with an absence of aggressive buying (mails a decline easily attained. Local yen - ! tlment was mixed and the action of wheat j was quickly reflected. outside market bids were more In lino with those from « hicago in the interior, while the export i j demand was slow. At the last the basis Ion casta corn eased 'i CP He, as compared j with May and Induced considerable soiling , . of futures. Receipts, 263 cars. Rains were reported in the province of Buenos ! Aires. Argentina. While there whs some buying of outs against sales of corn by spreaders, trade i was not large nnd the weakness In corn j had a depressing effect on the former | grain. Cash *demand has fallen off with sales of 80,000 bushels. Receipts, 63 cars. Export demand for rye was Inactive with ! little business reported, although there i was some inquiry here from the seaboard j and also buying of future® early. The | two northwestern markets had 160 cars. Pit Notes. A decidedly bearish sentiment prevailed ■ among wheat traders after the close and ' the general belief was that values would work irregularly lower until there was n J material increase in the buying Few ' traders can see anything in the Hituation at the moment on which to advocate pur chases. except for a temporary rally. The pressure of cash wheat the world over is becoming more and more noticeable, and until the situation changes, selling on i the bulges promises to l»e popular. While the leading bulls In corn are disposed to stand aside and watch the market for the time being, there is a strong belief among many of the leading commlssio i houses nnd local professionals that corn will ultimately sell much high er. On any good break the best .sellers of Thursday are expected to come into j the market as buyers. Green bugs have made their appearance in wheat and oats in parts of Texas, ac cording to a message from Dallas to day. This had some effect on the July delivery. Insect activity in 'the far southwest has increased materially, due to arbnormally warm weather for thlji sea sen. — Elevator congestion is increasing at Minneapolis, due to the big receipts of grain of late. There is around 24,000, 000 bushels of all grain In store there out of a total elevator capacity of 40. 000,000 bushels, and some of the elevators and mills are congested to a point where embargoes are feared. Beneficial rains have fallen in the prov ince of Buenos Aires, itnd the outlook for new crop is favorable. World's exports of wheat the past week, as indicated by reports, received so far. are estimated at 13.000.000 bush els. compared with 12.662.000 bushels the previous week, and 12.023.O0 bushels last year. Indian shipments for the week were 46 4.000 bushels. Australia cleared 1,152, 00ft bushels against 1.280,000 bushels last year. Omaha Live Stock Omaha. Jan. 12. Receipts were: Cattle. Hogs. Sheep.

Probably judgment of the European news was more definitely expressed In the for eign exchanges, whose movement was somewhat remarkable. Rising a full cent over Thursday's final rate, and 4,1-8c 'over last Saturday, sterling at 14.68 1-S stood within a fraction of the highest rute of the period. If the continental exchanges had yield ed as they did the day before, the familiar theory might have been ad vanced again that "transactions of a special nature” were back of the rise in sterling. But the franc crossed 7c, it reach ed the hlghtest price uoted since the day when the Paris conference broke up last week, the recovery from Mon day's low point having been more than 3 8c. and nearly all of the day's recovery was maintained at the close, i Merlin* Decline*. The course of sterling at 1'aris was per- ; naps even more impressive. The pound sterling declined 1 ^ francs, making a movement of very nearly 2 francs in favor of Pails since Tuesday The rate now stands below where It stood on the morn ing after the adjournment at Paris. These Interesting movements on the ds> s markets appeared to be merely re affirmation of the financial view regard ing the French experiment. They ba l no particular stimulus in the cable news, ex cept Insofar as the dispatches crooned quiet acquiesence by Germiny. The re ported plan for ringing of , imrcli bells and blowing of factory whistles *15 m.n utes on Monday, by way of expressing bssen s feelings, at least raised no ex pectation of alarming developments. On the Stock Exchange, today's ad vances ranged from a fraction to 2 or 3 points, railway shares moving very little ihe bond market wp.s firm, with frac tional advance In the French republic loans. One of the Incidents of the dav's markets, pointing to another part of iho economic situation, was the rise in spot cotton to 27.45o. This Is a full cent above the price of Thursday in last week and above the highest of 1922. Wall Street Topic*. On more active dealings. StsularJ < il of New Jersey advanced to 43’*.

The relatively high hid df the Morgan firm for the Cuban loan was construed «s ar. indication of greatly improved con ditions in that country and was reflected in a 31, point gain in the old Cuban gov ernment 4 per cet bonds. Gains of 1 to l '-j points were also registered by ( Dominican Republic utys, Queensland 7s. Zurich 8s and Mexican 6s, while the French bonds Improver! fractionally.

Considerable pressure developed from spot house and southern w'ire con cerns, nlso increased realizing, but it was well absorbed, the market reacting only moderately. There was fair demand from foelgn interests in midaesaion and al though profit-taking from professionals was encountered and prices dropped back half way, renewed activity and general demand in the afternoon sent prices up 40 to 45 points above yesterday's* finals A last hour reaction resulted from slightly heavier realizing, and prices at the close were 17 to 23 points net higher.

New York, Jan. 12.—Dun's Saturday will say: "With some extension of previous gains business has more than held Its favor able position. The holiday season had brought less than the usual slowing down of basic Industries, anti the first fortnight of the new year has been marked by sustained demand or larger buying. While the price movement Is irregular, with certain sellers making concessions, there is well defined strength lti some important branches, as in iron and steel textiles. The question of deliver* becomes more pro minent and the matter of price of smaller Importance in cases where the urgency of needs *ls disclosed, and It is reason ing that current shipments of goods are facilitated by the improvement in the car situation. Instances are not un common. however, wherever manufaetur. ers. being engaged for some time ahead cannot accept orders for early forwarding, despite the higher rate of production.” Weekly bank clearances, $7,370,132,000.
