Omaha Grain
Omaha, Feb. 14, 1923.
Total receipts at Omaha were 147
l*ars, as compared with 420 cars last
fear. Total shipments were 85 cars,
Against 182 cars last year.
There was a good demand for cash
Wheat on the Omaha market, with
prices He higher. Corn was also in
Rood demand at unchanged to He
higher. Oats were steady, about He
higher. Rye was quoted unchanged I
to He lower, and barley nominally un
changed.
Cold weather was the feature of the
Chicago market today, causing the
new crop months of wheat to be par
ticularly strong. A good sized in
crease in the visible supply statement
caused some liquidation at the start,
hut the decline was short-lived and
prices responded quickly to buying
orders, and shorts covered freely.
July and September wheat scored a
new high for the season. Highest
prices were not maintained, owing to
profit taking sales in both wheat and j
corn.

Chicago Grain
Chicago, Feb. 14.—Between a se- j
vere cold wave over tho winter wheat
belt and rumors of hostilities in the
near east, grain markets were kept .
on the upgrade a good part of the
day, with July and September wheat
and July oats at a new high for the
season. Heavy profit taking devel
oped on the bulges, and wjiile the fin
ish was on a reaction, final trades
were 3-8@1 l-8c higher on wheat, 1-4
(g>3-8c on corn and l*4@l-2c on oats,
while rye was unchanged to 1-Sc
lower.
Fears of damage to the new win
ter wheat crop as the result of low
temperatures was responsible for a
material increase in the buying of
July ami September wheat by com- •
mission houses. The selling was not
aggressive and prices advanced read- \
ily, with July touching $1.18, and the
finish was within l-2c of the top.
Iaiip Hell Freely.
Under cover on the strength in tho
new crop futures, longs sold May wheat
rather freely at times, although there
was less pressure at $1.24 than on the
previous bulge. At the outside figure
it was only l?4c under the extreme top
of the December upturn and while the
finish wan on a reaction of lc from
the best price, there wan good buying by
houses with eastern connections. Judg
Ing from the exchanging of May wheat
here for seaboard account, a much larger
export buslnea was put through than
reported. Sales abroad were estimated
at 2F.O.OOO bushels Manitoban.
All deliveries of corn sold within a
fraction of the outside fglures of the sea
son but long corn came out freely on tho !
bulges, which were not fully maintained,
with the greater part of the selling
In the May which went to about lc under
July at one time. Some of the local bulls
who sold out recently started to reinstate
fhelr lines on an early break and re
sumed buying whenever the market need
ed support. Development of a big export
business at the seabourd with sales of
7CO,OOt» bushels had some effect on values.
Country offerings to arrive Increased as
the result of an advance of 1c in the to
arrlve bids as compared with the May.
Receipts. 323 cars, with tho basis ®
better.
Several strong commission houses were
persistent buyers of July oats, a 1 vane
ing them readily, and there was also less
pressure on May at 47c than expected.
The undertone was strong throughout th»
day, although there was profit taking
toward the last which made 'i» reaction.
Oats are still regarded by many traders
as selling too low as compared with corn.
Receipts 6l cars.
Rye showed a heavy undertone and
with a lack of aggreslave buying, the#
finish was heavy. No export demand of
consequence was reported at the seaboard. ,
Two northwestern markets had C7 cars.
Pit Notes.
Sentiment amonfr wheat traders was j
somewhat more mixed than It has been J
of late. There was an accountable under- j
tone of uneasiness noted during the day,
although there wan nothing In tho news
to account for the feeling. In the main |
this applied to the May delivery. I.ong
May came out freely on all the bulges,
which wa*? regarded as only natural in
view of the sharp upturn of late, but |
there is generally believed to be a large
outstanding scattered short interest which
may be forced to cover if the market
remains firm for any length of time.
Bearish news of late'has had little effect
on values and the: market has been re
ceiving support when needed.
Traders are giving more attention to
July and September wheat at tho present
time, due to the possibility of a crop
, -rare. Ice was reported over the winter
•-heat fluids in many sections of the belt,
and while damage, If any, cannot be de
termined until there Is growing weather,
the cold wave caught tho crop without
snow protection of consequence.
Some of the local traders who sold out
part of their tines of long corn on Tues
day’s bulge were active In reinstating
them todav, due to the development of
an actlvo export demand at the seaboard,
which they figure will remove one of the
chi^ bearish arguments, namely, that of
a slox demand for the cash grain held at
Chicago. Htocks here, however, sr** now
i smaller than Inst year for the first time
in weeks. The advance of lc in bids to
arrive, as compared with the May. put
J the basis back to where it was over the
i double holidays and brought out fair of
! ferlngs from the country. It was said
I that local handlers sold 100.000 bushels
j t orn to exporters at 9^c over May, track
' Baltimore.
Profit taking was on in May corn on a
I liberal scale, but with some of tho strong
J local professionals active on tho buying
side and with the persistent takings in
I small lots by commission houses, offer
ing were readily absorbed There were a
number of resting orders to buy May
corn at 75*4c. all of which were not
filled. Sentiment on the whole remains
very bullish, although in some quarters
a reaction would not be regarded as sur
prising hi the belief prevails that the
market is slightly overbought.

New York, Feb. 14.—The note
worthy movements on the markets to
day were made up of irregular down
ward reaction in the price of stocks,
a decline in French and Belgian
francs, while the German mark was
rising, and an advance in wheat to
a price nearly 10c a bushel above
January’s lowest and only 1 3-8c be
low the highest price yet reached for
the May delivery on this present crop.
On the Stock Exchange, where busi
ness again ran far beyond a million
shares, the declines of a point or more
were mostly restricted to industrial
shares in which the bidding-up pro
cess has lately been rather overdone
by profesional speculators and their
following; elsewhere the movement
was irregular and not altogether in
one direction.
Some of today’s industrial state
ments were, indeed, of a character to
give further color to the ideas of ex
panding trade. A week, ago the iron
industry reported for last month the
largest January production during or
since the war, with the single ex
ception of 1919.
Cotton Consumption larger.
Today the census bureau reported taking
ings of cotton in January by American
spinners were much larger than in any
month on record, with the sole exceptions
of March, 1916. and May, 1917. at the
climax of foreign and home demand for
«ar material. That thl» should happen,
along with what the bureau declarer to
be the largest number of active spindles
ever reported In this country, in striking
evidence of manufacturers' expectations
for the season's textile trade It has a
singularly interesting bearing on the con
troversy Hi to whether the high price of
cotton and tariff on cotton is bound to
check the retail consumers’ purchases.
The Indications in today’s cables of the
growing complexity of the French task In
the Ruhr and especially the remarks of
Honar Uw to parliament, had only mo
mentary effect on sterling, which ended
the day at a slight advance. But the
franc was carried down about Hr, reach
ing. at £> 98«4c a price not far above the
a level of January .7j, which was
itr-elf the lowest sin re 1920.
Marks IksoTcr.
Simultaneously the German mirk rose
from .0033 to .0047V,—actually an ad
vance of 137 per cent from the .0030 price 1
of January 30. It must still be observed |
that even today a beet price was lower
than any touched before the middle of
January and barely one-third the final
price of December But the fact only
emphasizes the condition into which Ger
man prices and German trade are neces
sarily plunged by such wild fluctuations
in the value of the country’s currency.
A press dispatch from Berlin reported
that the government had asked the
reichsbank to ’’throw 360.000.000 gf.Id
marks on the market In order to stabilize
exchange’ and the reichsbank directors,
hostile to the proposal, had resigned. This
statement. If correr*. could only mean
that the Cuno mystery had resolved to
make the bank buy back paper narks on
an Enormous acale, in order to force up
the exchange rate
s9hI! Mrret Notes.
Reports reaching the financial district
indicated that winter railroad traffic o'cr
the northw -stern roada was continuing
henvy. Reflection of this seasonal activ
ity *»» seen in the announcement that
ih« January statement of the Chicago,
Milwaukee dr S» Paul would aho wan in*
crease of tJ,400 000 in gross over Janu
ary of 19::. and a gain of 12.150,000 In
net. Two reports covering the first week
of February, which show l a similar im
provernent were .*»ue,i ty the Great
Northern and Northern Pacific. Great
Northern's gross earnings for tha» period
were $217,000 above the corresponding
'vee.; tn 1 923, while Northern Pacific's'
gro*« earnings show e.j a gain of $240,000.
Much of this gain was attributed to th»*
movement of fureat products.
-Among tiie orders placed be railroad
companies In 1M2 for deliveries. In 1922
ar- for many automobile freight fur-, the
growth of th- automobile Industry hr com
pared with the prewar period having ne
cessitated an Increase In railroad facili
ties for handling the shipping end of
that industry. Mony of these newly-or
dered care will serve aa replacements, but
tho increase in equipment available for
shipping automobiles will, according to
aome estimates, b* as high aa 20 per cent
OVe- 192?.
There la a considerable degree of m>s
tery in Wall street about the Identity of
recent tuyere of German marks, but that
they have been powerful Interests is quite
evident from the fact that tho German
marks have more than doubled in mar
ket value In the last fortnight. In gome
quarter* the belief is nprceee I that they
are being purchas'd by German Industrials
r ho have knowledge of possible devel
opments !n the Franco German situ
ation. The agitation to stabilize
the German mark at 25.000 to ih < dollar,
reported from German; . |» another fac
tor. while still another Is th«* report that
Germany has deeded to let go aomo of
Us gold marks to this country and to
London for the purpose of arrumuiating
food credits
