MARKET, FINANCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL NEWS OF THE DAY_ j
Omaha Grain
Omaha, Jan. 30, 1923.
Receipts at Omaha totaled 92 cars,
as compared with 340 oars last year.
Total shipments were 158 cars, against
135 cars a year ago.
Cash wheat on the Omaha market
was In fair demand , with prices un
changed to a cent higher. Corn was
in good demand, with prices un
changed to tic up. Oats were steady,
unchanged to Uc up. Rye was quoted
unchanged and barley nominally un
changed.
Buenos Aires corn market closed
last night 2c to 2tgc higher on ac
count of the continued dry weather
in that country, and was the dom
inating influence in our markets at
the opening today. Led by corn, our
prices all showed a higher range of
values at the start. Although the
burden of news was of a bearish
tenor, prices ruled steady during most
of the session, displaying a good un
dertone and recoverin gsharply from
the dips. Covering by local -shorts
near the close caused a sharp upturn
and closing the market well above
last night's final figures.

Chicago Grain
Chicago, Jan. 30. — Commission
house buying and short covering
made a more active set of grain mar
kets and while local traders were
bearish and sold freely early the sur
plus in the pits was quickly absorbed
and a strong rally came toward the
last with the finish at net gains of
7-8® l 1-Sc on wheat, 3-4® 7-8c on corn,
l-4®5-8c on oats and 3-8c on rye.
New.’., early, was generally of a
bearish character and locals sold
wheat freely, forcing May off to $1.13,
at which figure there was good coni
mission bouse buying on resting
orders. The market was slow until j
near the close, when a house with
eastern connections started to buy
j rather freely, and an oversold condi
j tion was disclosed, bringing about a
sharp upturn with May leading.
There was some buying of durum wheat
nt Minneapolis for weabonrd account but
the general demand from abroad was very
slow and milling call was less in evidence
in the southwest. Statistics were of a
increasing 7.201,000 bushels for the week.
Increasing $7,201,000 bushels for the week.
No rain fell in the dry districts in Kan
sas ami Oklahoma, and late messages
from Nebraska Indicated that ice was
forming over tlie wheat fields in the east
ern part of the lntter state.
Trade Is l^ieal.
Fears that considerable damage had
been done to the new Argentina corn
crop were the main bullish Influences in
that fgrain There was less pressure on
the market and with short covering in
sympathy with wheat prices averaged
higher and closed st the top. Trade,
however, was largely of a local character
Bearish domestic conditions were ignored.
Shipping demand slow and the basis on
spot Imre and at Minneapolis was easy.
Tn some quarters a belief was expressed
that receipts were to increase due to a
better car supply. Country offerings were
small. Buenos Aires prices were 2^c
higher than Saturday's close.
Oats in the main reflected the notion of
corn, being easy early but advanced to.
ward the last. Cash demand Is slow and
the basis Imre easy while nt Minneapolis
it wan *4 (ft V.c lower. Receipts. 51 cars.
Houses with 908board connections were
fair buyers of rye while the northwest
sold and prices held within relatively nar- I
row Hmltn. The two northwestern mar- i
keta had 93 ca****.
Pit Notes.
nreater part of the advance in wheat j
todnv was regarded as having been due |
to short roverinr. nnd after the close a
majority of the local element and profes- 1
sional traders were extremely bearish. I
Technically the market's Position was re
garded as weaker, but the general im
pression was that no decided price tr*»nd
could be expected for sometime unless
there was a radical change In the charac
ter of the news frob abroVi.
It would not surprise the trade tomor
rnm if there were numerous olables re
ceived from Argentina giving more or less
details to the position of the new corn
crop there. The advance of C’-'.c in
Buenos Aires as compared with Satur
days close was regarded as indicating
that the crop had suffered considerable
damage.
In oommenlin gon the corn situation
a local slatlstican said: “Consumption of
corn started earlier than usual this sea
son and a greater schIo than normal on
account of the largo supplies of live
stock. With the , high wages being paid
there is every reason lo believe that the
demand for meat will hold up and there
Is every inducement for farmers to con
tinue to feed heavily. The trade may be
surprised by the smallness of the March
1 reserves. There Is an excellent basis
for a big bull market in corn, and it
looks as thought it was simply a ques
tion of when it mas to start.**
Wheat Falling Off.
Movement of wheat to terminal markets
is falling off. Kansas City. St Louis
and Omaha combined, received 137 cars
today, against 521 cars last year. Some
Minneapolis houses reported consignment
notices had dropped 25 to 50 per cent
within the past week. Logan & Bryan's
Kansas City office wired that farmers
are storing some wheat in elevators and
probably will not sell before March 1
A local man. who recently returned from
the seaboard in discussing the rye situ
ation. says that the bulk of the* buying
of late for eastern account has been
against export sales, while northwestern*
hedgers and local traders have been do
ing the Helling. While the market bus
been doing very little of late it looks for
tje to gain on wheat later in the sea
son when the cash rye commences to clear
for Europe.

New York, Jan. 30.—On the whole,
the tradition established by the news
from the Ruhr of blowing hot and
cold on alternate days was fairly
maintained today. On Monday, the
note was one of impending disaster.
On Tuesday, the cables became a mat
ter of fact in tone, with several agi
tating rumors contradicted. This
found moderate reflection in "Wall
street atmosphere and, although the
decline in German. French and Bel
gian exchange continued, sterling ad
vanced more than a cent and the neu
j ti’al European exchanges moved up
moderately. At the same time, al
though transactions in the French re
public 8 and per cent bonds were
again exceptionally large, their price
i did not go below Monday’s low point
and there was evidence of good sup
port.
In the mark and the French and Bel
gian franc, however, pressure continued
heavy, the frano below 6 rent*, declin
ing i8c for the day to a rate of 6.99He,
which was little more than He above
the low- record price of November. 1920.
The German mark went to .002c—at
which price, if such comparison* any
longer possess interest, an American cent
will buy 600 marks and an American
dollar. 60.000 and at which the deprecia- 1
lion of the German currency from parity ;
Is to a trifle more than 99.99 per cent. '
Possibly today's decline would have ex
cited no extreme surprise even hod there
been no “Ruhr Incident” in progress; for
the Reichsbank weekly statement a* of
January 22, show* an increase of 216.
794.HI 6.000 mark*. The largest previous
increase reported in any weekly state
ment was the 166.707.769.000 covering the
third week of December, and, although
the current statement covers a 10-day
period as against only seven for the De
cember maximum, and i* therefore net a
record breaking daily average still it
appears to foreshadow addition of a tril
lion marks or more in the next five weeks,
with the geometrical progression prevail
ing afterward.
Economic Question.
[he days strength in sterling did Its
part in dampening the predictions of
some kind of ‘‘European war” which had
their vogue on Monday; Indeed, the tenor
hoth of the markets and of the cable dis
patches today suggested the possibility
that the Franco-German dispute may set
tle down into a mere question of imme
diate economic endurance. Whether the
German industrialists and the German
government will or will not. when the
pinch is felt, accept the proffer of terma
already ma<ie by the continental allies,
must remain a matter of conjecture.
The stock markets moved somewhat
more irregularly, both at New York and
in Europe, but there was no showing of
weakness. Wheat prices recovered, t lie
Chicago Boapd of Trade operations as
cribed it to **the warlike' news from Eu
rope.” When wheat declines it is "the
destruction of Europe’s purchasing pow
er.” Any movement, it would seem, is
due to the logic of the Rjuhr situation.
Financial Topics.
Whatever seise may be said of the
nfarkets as a whole, particularly about
their dullness and indecision, it must be
tccounted that extreme nervousness, such
as would bring an avalanche of stock or
bonds to market, has not developed. The
markets are dull and so uninteresting as
to be hardly worth watching, but at the
same lime the outstanding characteris
tics is an undertone that Is remarkably
steady and the fact that prospective pur
chasers of stocks are as a rule required
to advance their bids to fill their or
ders. There is little doubt that one of
the sustarilng influences in the present
market, both in stocks and bonds, is the
large short interest, which has been built
and which, near the close of each day,
always provides a certain volume or re
purchasing strength. In view of the rather
remarkably calm attitude of the market
since the occupation of the Ruhr, it is
fair to say developments in our own eco
nomlc situation weigh more heavily In
the scales of public opinion at the moment
than the unsettling events abroad*
There will be no extra session of con
gress this summer, according to in
formation which reached the financial dis
trict today, the present congress adjourn
ing on March 4, and not reconvening un
til December. As a result, much of the
apprehension felt over possible “radical"
and “hostile legislation.” aimed par
ticularly at the railroad companies, has
been dissipated, and according to opin
ion in bankinr circles, the carriers can
at least proceed for a year now with
out having to worry over possible changes
iti existing laws which concern them.

You Can Bring Back Color
and Luster With Sage
Tea and Sulphur.
When you darken your hair with
Sage Tea and Sulphur, no one can
tell, because it's done so naturally, so
evenly. Prepaying this mixture,
though, at home is mussy and trouble
some. At little cost you can buy at
any drug store the ready-to-use prep
aration, inproved by the addition of"
other ingredients called "Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound.” You
just dampen a sponge or soft brush
with it and draw this through your
hair, taking one small strand at a
time. By morning ail gray hair dis
appears, and, after another applica
tion or two, your hair becomes beauti
fully darkened, glossy and luxuriant.
Gra*y. faded hair, though no dis
giace, is a sign of old age, and as we
all desire a youthful and attracthe
appearance, get busy»at once with
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound
and look years younger.

ARE YOU A
SUFFERING WOMAN 2
Health Is Most Important to Toil.
Lincoln, Neb,—'At one time I bev
raine very miserable with weakness
from which women suffer. I suffered
all the time. One of my neighbors
urged mo to take Dr. Pierce’s Favor
ite Prescription because It had cured
her of similar symptoms, so I de
cided to try It. The first bottle made
me feel so much better, I took four
more, » nd feel cot tain that in that
one experience 'Favorite Prescription
saved mo from the operating table
and the surgeon's knife. Two years
afterwards when the turn of life com
menced, I took the ‘Prescription again
with the result that I came through
strong and healthy and am still main
taining wonderful health.”—Mrs. Mar
tha Htrayer, 91S So. 19th St.
