MARKET, FINANCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL NEWS OF THE DAY __ _ * __ ‘ ___ ___ I Omaha Grain Omahafc April 16, 1923. Total receipt* at Omaha were 190 *-arn, against 170 cars last year. Total | shipments wer* 165 cars, as compared with 245 cars a year ago. Cash wheat on the Omaha market was rather slow, holders being un willing to accept the decline, for their sample prices were quoted lc to 2c lower. Corn M-ae in good demand at VjC to le lower. Oats were generally '4c lower. Rye was quoted lc lower, and barley easy and unchanged. Initial prices at Chicago were high er. being influenced by strong foreign cuhles. On the advance strong com mission houses turned heavy sellers i f wheat and corn to secure profits. Prospects for hetter weather in the northwest brought the heavy selling orders in which, and corn and oats : -empathized with the weakness in ' ill's cereal. There was fair support j on the breaks, but the markets gener , i ally did not show much rallying power in the first part of the session. Adverse reports continue to come from the southwest and the demand for . ash wheat generally seems to be hardening. It whs said that the supreme court upholds the Capper Tim ber bill and tips counted against values, with the market at the close presenting a weak, undertone. WHEAT No. I (lark tiara, i car. 11.22.

ChieaKt). April 16.— Bull sentiment in wheat tcwlay was somewhat tem pered by betty weather conditions In the northwest together with the de cision handed down by the suprome court which upheld the constitution ality of the Capper grain futures act. As the session progressed long wheat came out freely, with the close at sharply reduced levels. Wheat dosed 1 J-2c to 2 I-2c low er, corn 1 1-8c to 1 7-8c off. oats l-2c to 1 l-8c down, rye 1 2-8c lower and barley dosed unchanged. While the. effect of l he court de cision relative to grain values was not dearly defined to the trade in to- j day's market it caught the trade in a generally bullish frame of mind and mostly long, and the consequence was 1 a natural “getting out of lines.” Prices showed a slight recovery at \ the bell. Torn Prii-e* Break. Corn brike with wheat. Houses that j have been|actively engaged on the bull ■ *ido for weeks wejjR among the best se! ' lent in accepting profits. May and July was under pressure, while local bears ! were also encouraged moderately by the i trend of the market. Dong May and July oats on tap j throughout, although the July was active- j ly supported on the weak spots. The swing was lower with other groins. Rye worked lower with the reef The j sf a hoard was leas interested In the pit, i while scattered selling was encouraged by j th decline* In other grain* Provision* were rather quiet hut low. ] T,ard closed 12‘ic to 15c lower and riba ; 5c to 7 Vic lower 1*' Note* Weakness at Minneapolis and Winnipeg confirmed better weather outlook both ; si deg of the boundary and fear over de layed seeding of spring crops was ap preciably dispelled At th« same time i ■ ’ pert* sent in reports from the spring wheat territory that snowdrifts would de- i lay seeding another week at least in mans' section.*. Condlliuns over the winter wheat belt i were little changed, with the need of • moisture over wide areas'still apparent. However, the trade paid little attention to that condition in today’s market. Movement of wheat to primary markers was well maintained, while the demand! tor tha cash was fairly good. The talk of labor shortage continued In the trade. Reports seem to be coming more general from the northwest at this tim*» where farmers are now becoming concerned over their spring wheat seed ing Messages from the Dakota* declared 1 ft almost impossible to get hired help. Flour trade in the northwest uas re ported fairly active. While th‘*re were rumors from the sea board that foreign countries had can celed wheat purchases, confirmation was denied, while in addition it was advised that foreign bids were at high levels and that the demand for durum wheat and' rye c. i. f Buffalo was particularly keen.

New York, April 16,—Until late this j afternoon, when a sharp break oc curred, the stock market displayed im pressive resistance, due to optimistic | trade reports over the week-end, and i a highly favorable clearing house ' hank statement showing further con traction in loans and expansion in surplus. Tlie weakness was most pronounced in Hie oils, which were again subject ed to heavy short selling by big opera tors. who are taking advantage of public apprehension concerning the future price trend in crude oil. Mar land oil was singled out for special attention by the bears, at one time showing a decline of 2 points and sell ing at a level nearly 12 points under its recent top of 66. Pan American shares, which have been given much attention by the professional raiders, naturally came in for considerable at tention. • i S|tPmilatiirs Hesitant. Marked Contraction occurred In the 'In.-- turnover, reflecting hesitancy on the Part of file rank and file of speculators To uo anythin* until the oil situating clari fies The contraction In Ixialnesa was largr-l) in the olle, tvhi» h hate recently been the favortt"*. One dominating Influence making for lower prices in ahorea Is found In the de velopment of a downward tendency in the pries of a number of raw materials, the supply of which has overtaken the da in-.nd. This is true of copper metal, oil, cotton and scrap iron. ( of ton Option* Break. Cotton options broke sharply ro the lowest level in months The July contract, which sold as high as 30.74c In March, changed hands today M 27 06c. October, w hich recently sold at 26 25c per pound, sold today at 24.50c. Th- decline in th»* oil share* is due as much to their technical market condition as to the reduction In the price* for California, Pennsylvania and Smackover, and the expectation of ;* drop In Mid Contlnenf. In recent weeks there has been partial distribution of some of the lead ing oils. Following this distribution the market l«*> am- congested. The cuts an nounced In crude oil prices facilitated covering by professional* The bull cam paign In the oil is not over.
