Better Feeling in Wheat Pit; Prices Advance Easily — — - - - - ■ ■ ■ ■ — Cheerful Tone in Foreign News, Forecasting Stabilized Market Corn Develops Appreciable Strength and Healthier Cash Situation Prevails. By Calnml Sente*. Chicago. March SI.—A better feel ing pervaded the wheat pit today, and while trade did not broaden much, pressure was lacking and prices ad vanced easily. The situation was somewhat similar In corn. A good deal of the buying through the day in both pits was In the way of short covering, with some improvement noted in commission house business in the inferred deliveries. Wheat closed 1®1 l-4c higher, corn was 7-8ffttc advanced, oats were 5-8 '!i 3-4c higher and rye ruled 7S®1 l-8« advanced. Foreign news carried a more cheer ful tone. Private cables said that It looked as though all the depressing factors had been discounted, reflect ing the hope of a more stabilized market. Liverpool futures were ir regular, but mainly firm. Winnipeg lagged, apparently from the lack of fresh export business. Corn developed appreciable strength both In the pit and in the spot mar ket. A healthier cash situation pre vailed, with the shipping demand lo cally materially- improve!. Southwest ern markets noted an urgent demand for corn, and prices all around were buoyant. In the pit the principal buying was short covering. Oats acted firm and advanced read ily with other grains. Commission houses, some with country connec tions, were fair buyers, and there was a lack of pressure. Ttye advanced with other grains. A report by a local expert placing the condition of rye at S2 per cent, was construed as bullish and attracted some buying. Provisions were slightly easier in a day of heavy exchanging trade. Lard was unchanged to 2 l-2c lower and ribs were 2 l-2c lower. Pit Notes. Chicago, March 31.—Crop condi tion* over the winter wheat belt con tinued satisfactory generally, but the market was acting better and was not to be depressed even with the main tenance of favorable crop conditions. Some of the bulls were inclined to be discouraged at the last because the prices at Winnipeg for wheat showed an advance of hut l-2c, com pared with 1 l-4c upturn here. A local crop expert estimated the condition of winter wheat at 85. and suggested a crop of 578,000,000 bush els. figuring on a 6 per cent abandon ment, with the average abandonment of 10 per cent. I.*ast year the winter yield was 572,000,000 bushels. The world’s wheat situation seemed to he sized up by many in the trade ns in much better fix than for some time. A foreign statistician advised that his Indian agent claims the ex portable wheat surplus in India this year will not exceed 16,000,000 bush els. Ordinarily India has a surplus of 50,000,000 bushels of wheat. Wheat and flour on ocean passage for the week decreased 3,200,000 bushels. The T’nited States visible supply showed a decrease of 1,075,000 bush ADVERTISEMENT. If Piles, Send ForPyramid Tha Oral Household Troulnul lor Itching, Blooding or Pro truding Piles.

The stock, which is the most widely held on the "big board,” rallied nearly 2 points on official denials of the ru mors. Fresh buying of Ceneral Electric, apparently based on the showing made in the 1923 earnings report pub lished today, sent that stock up to 219 1-2, but it slipped tack later to 217 1-4. where it was up 3 1-4 on the day. Corn Products, another recent weak spot, also showed good recuper ative poweVs. selling as high as 172 3-4, or nearly 12 points above last week's low. United States Steel common, Bald win and American Can all closed a point or so higher. Active short cov ering again took place in the leather Issues, talng particularly pronounced in Central Leather preferred, which touched 42 3-S and then eased to 41 5-8 for a net gain of 2 5-S. A six point jump in Woolworth featured the specialty list. Trading in the rails was somewhat irregular, although most of the im portant price movements were up ward. Norfolk & Western was again active at rising prices, touching 125 3-4 and thfn slipping back . to 124 3 8, up 1 1-4. St. Paul preferred touched a new high at 28 3-8.
