MARKET, FINANCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL NEWS OF THE DAY
Omaha Grain
Omaha, Feb. 2.'!.
Ttftal receipts at Omaha for the
two days were 2ftl cars, against 283
ears last year. Total shipments, 177
pars against 163 cares a year ago.
Cash wheat was in very good de
mand sellers, however, were a little
•low in accepting the decline prices
were generally 2 1-2 cents lower.
Corn was iri good demand at the going
prices which were 1-2 to 1 cent lower
generally 1 cent lower. Oats sold 1-2 to
1 cent lower. Kye was quoted a cent
lower anil barley was generally un
changed from Wednesdays nominal
quotations.
Chicago futures market showed de
cided weakness at the start today.
May wheat being particularly weak
with the new crop options and coni
and oats sympathizing. A lower Win
nipeg and Liverpool wheat market
over the holiday a.id reports of good
and beneficial rains in Argentine
started Hie decline and the. reaching
of numerous stop loss orders ac
celerated the downward movement.
One of the principal points put for
ward by the bears was that the
heavier and cheaper offerings of Ar
gentine wheat would hamper if not
cut off entirely exports from North
America unless our prices came down
Sn line. On the other hand reports
from the southwest winter wheat
crop are rather of a pessimistic na
ture, the condition of the soil being
dry, moisture will bo urgently needed
as the growing period approaches.
Dullness ruled in the later part of
the session and prices at tin close
were only, slightly above the inside
figures.

j Chicago Grain
Chicago, Feb. 23.—liquidation was
on in grains early, and while there
was good buying on resting orders
around the inside figures, -the close
was within a fraction of the bottom,
with net losses of 114@2c on wheat,
*4 ©Tic on corn. *ar<£%c on oats and
1c on rye.
Weakness in Liverpool, which was
off \#"4c for wheat, and the easier
undertone at Winnipeg on Thursday,
when Chicago was closed, combined
with a flood of bearish foreign cables,
had a decidedly depressing effect.
While May had been supported of late
at $1.10, that prioe proved to he the
high figure of the day, the opening be
ing as much as 114c lower, but at
$1.1714 there was persistent buying by
commission houses and shorts, which
checked the break, and local traders
were disposed to press the selling sidq
around that figure .

Sentiment was almost. unanimously
bearish among a majority of i he local

among commission houses there was a

New York, Feb. 2u,—All market*
were watched with interest at the
opening today,- to see what effect, if
any, the increase in rediscount rate at
the New York Reserve bank would
have. Advance from 4 to 4 1 2 per
cent, announced 4010 Wednesday
afternoon affected the open money
market perceptibly, time loans, com
mercial paper and certain grades of
bankers acceptances rising i-4 to i
per cent. This advance, although lee
than the advance made in the bank |
rate, still leaves the open market fori
rediscoutitable bills 1 4-to 1 2 i>*• i- cent
above tho bank. On the Stock K\-!
change, however, the higher mils- ,
count rate appeared to have no very
lasting influence.
Price of stocks opened uncertainly I
with a few abrupt declines. This. ■
however, seemed to reflect chiefly the
doubt of some people who were noi j
particularly alarmed as to whether !
other people might, not be more |
frightened—a familiar state of mind ;
in Wall street.
