Bryan May Not Name
Morning Successor
UIncoln, Fob. 21,—It is probable
that no one will he appointed to fill
the vacancy created by the slaying
of Judge W. M. Morning last Mon
day, Governor Bryan said today.
The governor pointed out that but
3 0 months remain of the term and
two of those will be taken up with
vacation.
"I have talked to numerous mem
bers of the bar and bench here,” he
said, “and believe that the work of
the court can be carried on by the
other three judges of this district.
However, if I find that persons having
lawsuits in this district are Incon
venienced by the vacancy I will make
an appointment.”

“Intellectual life has gone in Rus
sia, Germany is dissolving before
t our eyes, France is going down. If
England had not been standing in
the breach while the United States
was on the eidelines I don't know
how things would be."
Holt declared that the league of1
nations, which he is advocating, lias
done much to promote progress since

Chicago Grain ^
By Vnlvcnal fterolro,
Chicago, Fob. 21.—Improved export de
mand for wheat accompanied tbe prac
tical settlement of tbo dock alrike in
the United Kingdom today and helped
lift prices into higher ground in tbe pit.
Volume of trade was not large. Treasure
waa lacking and evening ud by aborts
kept the undertone firm throughout.
Wheat closed Ho to He higher, corn
wee He higher to Ho lower, oate wars
H-2 higher to He lower and rye ruled
%c to He advanced.
A house with eastern connections was
a good buyer of September wheau. The
northwestern markets, especially Winni
peg. were relatively firmer than Chicago
early. Tbe buoyancy displayed at Winni
peg was attributed to the reported better
ment of the export demand. More export
business is said to have been done the
last three days than for several weeks.
Com continued irregular in its course
today. Developments in the southwest
spot situation led to profit-taking sales
and Increased pressure. It is said that
some grades of corn in the southwest are
now at a shipping difference with Chi
cago. Country offerings of corn were
reported as light.
Oats were inclined to follow the un
evenness of corn and finished irregularly.
Commission house buying was present on
the weak spots.
lifting of hedges against rye sold at
Buffalo recently developed a stronger
market and reports from Minneapolis that
further business had been done helped the
advance along.
Provisions were firm throughout. |^ard
was 2Hc higher and ribs were unchanged.
Pit Notes.
Chicago, Feb. 21. -Pressure of cash
wheat throughout the country Is still
lacking, premiums in most markets to
day being well maintained. The move
ment to primary markets continues gen
erally under last year, and strengthens
the contentions of the bulls that farm
leserves must be comparatively light.
The extent of damage done the growing
winter crop so far is problematical. Re
ports coming in vary considerably, and it
will probably be springtime before actual
damage done will he uncovered. The
weekly federal weather and crop report
said that much damage has been done by
the recent unfavorable weather condi
tions.
Reports from the seaboard said that
demand for nearby wheat was active, hut
that business was restricted by the lack of
ready freight space. Premiums on the
Msnitnbas for quick delivery today ad
vanced 1-4 to 1 -2c. Ustlmated shipments
from the Argentine for this week are in
excess of 6,000,000 bushels.
May wheat at one time today fully re
covered its discount under the May and ;
closed nearer to the deferred than on the
previous session. Considerable selling of
May wheat by longs Is going on, the lack j
of export business and the fairly large!
visible supply serving to augment these
transactions.

Chicago, Feb. 21.— Report* of the vir
tual settlement of the British dock strike
led to something of an upturn in wheat
prices today. Closing quotations here were
unsettled but *4*%c to %c net higher;
Mav. |1.10% <9»1.10% and July. |1.10*9>
1.10%. Corn finished at % tf %c lower to
*0 advance; oata at a shade decline to
%c gain, and provision* unchanged to a
rise of 2 cents. , , . ,
As a result of new* that the dock strike
was practically over. European demand
for' Canadian wheat became the best in
weeks and it was estimated that 600,000
bushels of the Canadian grain were taken
today for transatlantic shipment. The up
ward trend of values was also emphasized
by gossip current that the crop scare
time for domestic winter wheat Is only a
week or *0 away. Besides, primary re
ceipt* were notably smaller as com
pared with a week, farm reserves were
expected to make a bullish showing, and
confidence was apparently stronger than
ever that the import duty on wheat would
be raised before the opening of the
lake navigation. On the other hand,
bears contended that with May wheat
selling under the deferred months at this
time of the year a bull campaign was un
tenable.
Prediction* of a *harp reduction *oon
In the volume of corn arrivals gave steadi
ness to the corn market and to oats as
well The nredictlons were largely baaed
on Information that stock* of corn In
lllinoi* elevator* are tn^ch smaller than
usual at thla part of the season. There
were reports, however, that corn was ar
riving at Omaha too fast for the demand.
Clear cold weather prevailing acted alao
aa an Incentive to sell. „ _
Lower quotation* on hog* failed to
weigh down th* value of packing house
products.

Twenty railroads averaged $83.13; net

High. 1924. |83 9ft: low. 8*2.74.
Stock prices displayed a firm under,
tone In today's market, net gains In the
active industrial Issues ranging from 1
to 2% points. Business was on a re
duced scale because of the approaching
holiday and the continued Interruption of
wire service.
Resumption of buying on the long side
was Influenced by cheaper money rates,
• all funds being obtainable in the out
side market as low as 3% per cent; con
tinuation of record breaking car loadings
for this season of the year; another
advance in lead prices; the rerovery In
sterling exchange on the settlement of
the British dockworkers' strike, and a
continuation of favorable trade reporta.
Short covering was In evidence from
the start and in many rases, provided the
main Impetus for the advance. For 1he
first time aince last October, Wall street
brokers’ loans have taken a drop In the
last. few days, the total now being esti
mated at $1,380,008,000, or about $20,000,
000 below that of February 1.
Oils gave one of the best demonstra
tions of group strength. Standard Oil of
California rising 2 points and Pacific,
Mexican. Seaboard. Sinclair. Maracaibo
and Tidewater rising a point or more.
Buying of these issues was based on the
speculative belief that the Washington
oil Investigation already exhausted their
bearish possibllitieM. leaving them in a
position to respond to any Improvement
in the crude oil production situation.
Steals also moved up smartly, g*OS of
a point or so being recorded by l. 8.
Steel common. Republic. Crucible, Beth
lehem and Gulf States, the increase in the
annual dividend on the last named stock
and reports of heavy buying of automo
bile and railroad equipment manufactur
ers stimulating the demand for these
shares.
One of the sharpest rallies took place
In American Can, which soared as high
as 114% and then dropped back to 113%, |
where it was up 2% on the day. Bald
win dosed nearly two points higher at
122 after telling slightly above that
figure. The sharp rally in Davison Chem
ical which was rushed above 52 and
then eased to Ll%. up 2%. was attributed
to pool operations. Market street rail
way issues which were depressed yester
day on unconfirmed reports that the divi
dend on the prior preferred was 1n
danger, made partial recovery today, the
prior preferred closing 2% higher at 54*4.
Strength and a«tlvifY of Southern Rail
way common which touched 4*%. a new
high for all time, featured the railroad
group. Seaboard Airline preferred. Union
Pacific and Uackawanna also were strong.
General^ Electric and Irglnla Carolina
Uhernb al preferred were among the few
heavy spots.
Tall money held steady at 4 per cent
all day. Time money and commercial
pnner rales were unchanged.
Foreign exchanges made good recovery
from recent weakness Demand sterling
climbed more than two cents to around
84.31%; Frenrji franca rose n bout 10
points at 4 25c and other European rates
improved fn sympathy.

(^New York Bonds y
New York, Fob. 11.—Improving under
(he influence of a more cheerful tone in
the stock market and the broadening putt
lie interest bond prices were decidedly
firmer today. Substantial advances were
recorded in the Liberty bonds speculative
rail and public utility groups in moderate
trading activity.
Foreign government and municipal is*
sue* also strengthened appreciably. Austri
an 7k, Helgian a. Lyons tis er*d Paris-Lynns
Mediterranean 0* closed with 1 point
gains, while some ' of the Mexican gov
ernment bonds reflected the Improved
feeling resulting from the regular ar
rival of funds for inlet eat payments on
the debt.
The eaten to with bonds were affected
by the improvement ip slock prices was
demonstrated by the convertible sugar
anti topper Issues, which moved up brisk
ly. and by several of the oil issues. Sin
clair Consolidated 7«. in line with the
activity in the stock, gamed almost 2
points. Virginia-Cat olina Chemical issues,
on the oilier hand, continued to lone
ground a« the price of the stock sagged.
Low-priced railroad issues were in good
demand, with interest centered on sea
board, Chicago A Alton. Denver A Kio
Grande and Missouri Pacific issues.
Strength of the United States govern
ment issues we* explained by renewed
institutional buying. After selling Liberty
bond* for a transfer of funds into higher
yielding corporate issues, banks and in
surance companies were reported to be fa
voring these issues again until the out
come of tax legislation could be fore
Keen more definitely.
Ea*-Jy offering is expected of the !«>.
OOe.OOu Hocking \ alley issue, which will
take the form of tyo-year a per cent
notes, and probably sell at 99 ‘i to y ield
about 5.40 p*r cent.
