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

New York, March 81.—Stock prices
showed marked Improvement in to
day's dull seHsion. For several weeks
In succession speculators for the de
cline have staged a Monday reaction,
apparently for the effect It would
have on price movements the rest of
the week, but today they encountered
stronger resistance and finally aban
doned their attempt, the subsequent
short covering indicating an oversold
condition In many parts of the list.
Bullish seqtiment was encouraged
by Washington reports that the end
of the senTtte oil inquiry was in sight
and that the senate finance commit
tee would complete its tax revision
work this week. Apparently little at
tention was paid to the stiffer call
money rate, which opened at 5 per
cent and soon advanced to 5 1-2.
Early selling pressure was concen
trated on the independent steels, new
1924 lows being established by Beth
lehem. Crucible, Republic. Oulf States
and SIoss-ShefTicld. AH these stocks
recovered their losses, however. Cru
cible showed a net gain of almost 2
points at the close.
New low records also were made
by nearly two score additional stocks,
including Hayes Wheel, Fisk Rubber,
common and first preferred; Cluett
Peabody, Anaconda Copper, Western
Union, Brooklyn Edison, Western
Maryland, common and second 'pre
ferred; Lima Locomotive and Interna
tional Combustion Engineering.
Widespread comment was aroused
by the temporary weakness of Amort
can Telephone, which dropped 2 1-2
points to 123, the lowest thl% year,
on rumors of new financing. 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. Read
ing and New York Central each
moved up about a point.
The time money market continued
firm, with 4 12 per cent bid for all
loans up to 90 days and compara
tively little money available below
4 3-4. Prime commercial paper rates
were unchanged at 4 3 4. .
The foreign exchange market
showed a strong undertone. Demand
sterling eased slightly to Just below
$4.30, but French francs were firm
above 5.50c. Other European rates
also Improved.
