Hitchcock Mum on McAdoo and Doheny Affair J Declines to Discuss Possible Effect of Testimony on Candidacy of Movie Czar. Washington, Feb. 2.—Former Sena , tor Hitchcock of Nebraska refused to day to discuss the influence upon the political chances of W. G. McAdoo of the Doheny testimony that he had paid to the former secretary of the treasury $1150,000 as legal fees. The former senator ha^been active among the leaders supporting Me Adoo's candidacy for the democratic presidential nomination. There are those in Washington, close to Mr. Hitchcock, who feel that the former Nebraska senator is of that stature whlGh would make him acceptable as - the choice for ambassador to the court of St. James, in the event of a , McAdoo nomination and victory in N o vember. . Whether or not Mr. Hitchcock him " . seif has any such thoughts in mind he and other McAdoo leaders here are much perturbed as a result of the -Doheny testimony. it is certain that the story has giv en -aid and comfort to McAdoo's rivals—and it is said there is in creased interest in John W. Davis of .New York as a consequence. Insurgents Fight Mellon Tax Bill Hy Associated. Press. Washington, Feb.

Weekly Metal Review. New York, Keb. 2.—The buying moving In the steel market during the past week ■ showed further signs of broadening with a good demand from railroad material, also structural steel and a scattered de mand for »heets and bars. Tin plats con linued strong with a good demand. While ..ties were considered very satisfactory, there was a noticeable hesitation about iOgcing orders for forward delivery much in eyc-esa of immediate requirements. Pig non was firm and In some cases higher >v.ih a slight Improvement In the buying movement which, however, was still spotted. _ .. The demand for copper fell off during the past week. It Is estimated that fully jo.000,000 pounds were purchased for do mestic consumption while the recent buy ing movement was In progress and there was considerable business for export. The domestic buying waa mostly for March and April shipment. No selling pressure pf consequence developed, but some shad ■ 'ing of prices was reported by second ‘ hands toward the end of the week and while producers were generally asking K’dio for February-March small lots were said to bs available at 12%c.

Cash wheat In the Omaha market was in fair demand at about unchanged prices. Corn was a rather slow sale, un changed to l%c lower. Oats sold un changed to lower. Rye was quoted nominally unchanged and barley en* changed. There is a steady broadening of the outside trade in wheat and the Septem ber option in the Chicago futures mar ket recorded a new high level this morn ing an the result of persistent commis sion house bttying. Bears generally to day were less aggressive and tfcj* market displayed an excellent tone throughout most of the session. On the bulges, how ever, considerable long grain came out in the way of profit taking, but prices were well supported on all the minor setbacks. Market News. Broomhall Liverpool cable says: There Is a fairly good business passing in Mani toba wheats. In addition, the demand for Argentine and Australian also ap pears better. Offerings of Manitoba* are still in good volume, but are being tie a at full values, reflecting the strength in American markets and the firmer tone in cash grain. The spot situation In Liverpool is nominally firm, the move ment of wheat from the interior to the ports having been on a liberal scale. The corn trade is on a broader acale, with a better consumptive demand In evi dence. Spot situation In corn in Liver pool remains very firm. Argenlne Grain Surplus—A record of exportable surplus of grain is expected, with price* slightly better than last year. The minister of agriculture has given a rforecast of the coming crop as follows: ■Wheat, 7.057.000 tons; linseed. 1.606,000 tons; oats, 1.190,000 ton*; barley, 275,000 tons; rye, 115,000 tons. Kansas Wheat—Kansas City wires: Snow covering has disappeared and scattered reports are received that the condition of wheat as officially reported in De cember had not been maintained. Loss, however, did not appear important and was chiefly in sections that experienced alternate periods of freezing and thaw ing. It is timely to say that the loss was mainly in appearance. There are only a few complaints that plant vitality had been impaired. Omaha Car I*ot Salri. WHEAT.

LMDEN. Chicago, Feb. 2.—Swinging irregularly the wheat market staged an Impressive rally late today after a midday break and closed in higher ground. While the erratic trend was largely due to week end profit-taking the early weakness was in sympathy with the Independent slump at Minneapolis where selling of cash wheat by the farmers’ pool and increased importations of Canadian grain proved de pressing. Wheat closed He to He higher, corn was He to %c lower, oats were H*' higher to lower and rye ruled He to He lower. , A house with southwest connections was among the best buyers of wheat through the day. On the hard spots te cent buyers took profits. The reaction was followed by the pit element who were ultimately forced to cover. Export busi ness was fair, total sales of wheat being 200,000 bushels. Indications that the country is selling corn more freely together with a less active demand for the cash article led to freer liquidation In the pit und lower prices at the close. Premiums here were weak and receipts larger. Country roads are in bad condition, In^rever. and the next week will deWermine whether the movement is to pick up or not. Good buying was noted in the oats mar ket, but also liberal selling in the way of profit-taking, and this grain closed,ir regularly. Kye eased under scattered selling. The trade in this grain does not enthuse. Provisions dropped under scattered sell ing by smaller packers and commission houses. Lard was 2HC 1° 7 He lower and ribs were 7He lower. Pit Note*. An eastern authority maintains that the world's disappearance of w-heat since last summer has been 18.6b0.000 bushels in excess of the previous year whereas estimates by foreign authorities early in the season predicted that Europe would take from 100,000,000 to 12*0,000.000 bushels less wheat this cqpb year, than last. . ^ The foregoing Is accepted with con siderable reserve by the trade but at the same time is regarded as approxlmately correct. It merely goes' to yipve the contention, however, that European crops have either been overestimated or that foreign consumptive demand was under estimated, for the figures undeniably show that Europe Imported more wheat so far this year than last. Cash wheat premiums in all of the domestic markets the last week advanced, while the primary movement showed a fair increase over the previous week, totaling 4,422,000 bushels against 3,701,000 buchels respectively. Stocks in the north west and southwest have decreased mod for the poorer milling grades Increasing. The flour trade in the southwest is more aetiv«. Mills there are credited with filling early contracts more rapglly at this time. In the northwest flour trade is fairly active with the demand for the poorer milling grades increasing CHICAGO MARKETS. By 1 'pdike Orain Company, AT. 6312. Art. I Open. I High. I Low. I Cloae.

Stock prices in general were at their highest levels sinee last summer and had regained about $0 per cent of the ground lost since last March the peak of the bull movement which started In ths fall of 1921. Bond prices improved in reflection of relatively easy money rates. _ . Cotton futurea moved to higher ground on the settlement of the British railroad strike and In increased foreign demand. Wheat prices were bid up in speculative expectation of some sort of government aid for the northwest.

Feb. 2.—Intermittent profit taking failed to check a resumption of the upward movement in today s stock market, which was featured by the im prensive .strength of the low priced rail road shares. Dividend paying rails, how ever, failed to share in the advance. St. Louis Southwestern common and preferred advanced appioximately 6 and ;; points, respectively, and Wabash pre ferred A moved up 2% while Texas A 1’ucitic. Western Pacific preferred, Sea board Air Line preferred. Wabash com mon and the Pere Marquette issues ad vanced a pofht or so. Buying of this group was based on improved earnings and speculative expectation of a resumption of dividends next montl»S»by the South ern Railway. Wtabash and 9t. Louis South western companies. Steels held relatively firm on reports of steadily increasing operations and higher pig iron prices. U. 8. Steel closed fractionally higher at 106% and moderate activity was noted in Crucible, Bethlehem. Pennsylvania Seaboard and Gulf States. Steel companies are expected to benefit from the improvement of the oil industry which Is expected to materially increase Its demands for pipe and oil drilling ma chine! y. Another advance in the price of inid contlnent crude was offset by the latest disclosures in the oil inquiry at Washing ton, which brokers report has had a restraining effect on the trading in oil shares. Standard Oil of California and Pacific Oil, which were heavy yesterday, made good recovery today. Royal Dutch Jumped more than 3 point* and Shell Transport 2. ^ Specialties recorded the best gains In the industrial group. Hayes Wheel, Wool worth. Savage Arms and Otis Elevator advanced 1% to 6% points, all at new high levels for the year. Tobacco issues yielded readily to profit taking, Lgrlllard dropping 3 points, Schulte 1 i^uind a number of others yield ing fractionaliy.
