Omaha Demand for Com Leads to Rally on Chicago Market Voluntary Covering by Shorts Arrests Early Decline in Trade • \ I Harksprrmiing Oprratiom Re twffn Chicago and Winni peg Feature Market. ■r rslvrrwii Chicago, April 10.—Voluntary cov ering by short* arretted an early d* dine In the grain market today, and led to a brtak rally and higher level* finally, rye bring tha only exception Strength appeared In the corn pit first, and then spread Into wheat and oat*. A revived demand for cash corn at Omaha was the basis for the recovery In tha yellow cereal. Wheat closed unchanged to *c higher: corn was 1*r to %c advanced; oats were to 7»o up; rye ruled un changed to Ric lower. Rackspreadlng operations between Chicago snd Winnipeg featured * good part of the day's wheat trade. The Canadian market as a result lost ground. There wa* nothing particu larly significant about the change in news lending lo the upturn. Profit taking by previous sellers was not urged, the rally hrlng duo more to technical conditions than anything else. Corn milled well after proving it self more or less of a two-sided af fair. On the bulges selling was re garded a* representing long lines, while the buying was short covering. Very little fresh interest was discern ible. Cash premiums locally failed to recover, but pricos in the south west were generally higher. Short covering In onts was a late factor. A broader spot demand at Minneapolis where for five days stocks decreased 420,000 bushels to a better feeling. A lack of short Interest was termed as the reason for the failure of rye to rally lata In the session. This grain was easy throughout the day. Provisions were off moderately at the last. Dnnl was 214c to 714c lower and ribs were 214c to Be lower. Pit X'otes. Almost from every source today came the report that cash buyers were Indifferent. The idea gleaned was that this situation pre vailed, not especially because of the burdensome stocks In millers’ hands In this country or abroad, but ap parently because of the belief thai available supplies are plentiful. The seaboard termed the foreign buyer ns Indifferent, while milling concerns northwest also advised of a lack of interest. The situation Is similar In the wheat pit. Speculators have lacked confidence for nearly a year off and on, partially because of overproduc tion of grain the world over, and also duo to legislative Interference. The government report was variously construed In the trade, the majority taking the stand that It had a bear ish tinge, but could not be necessa rily termed so because of the lack of growing weather so far. In the big producing centers of I lie southwest the condition of winter wheat is unusually high, while In ho soft wheat sections conditions are 'he reverse. This much has been known for some time and confirmed by the government report, but It has. also been repeatedly advised by ex horts that the plant has not yet ex perienced normal sunshine and ma turing weather so far, all of which Is essential in bringing the crop forward. Seeding of spring wheat in the northwest, is well on Its way, authori ties claiming that the season is from two to three weeks ahead of schedule In parts of Minnesota and the Da kotas. Condition of the ground Is good with moisture ample. A de crease in the acreage, however, Is apparently assured, the majority be lieving the reduction will be about 10 per cent compared with last year. Stocks of wheat at Minneapolis sre dwindling a little more rapidly, for five days this week, the decrease be ing 150,000 bushels. Chicago Caah l.raim.

New Tork, April 10—Renewal of selling pressure, based on unfavor able trade news, brought about an other aharp reaction In today’* stock market, net losses in the active Is sue* ranging from 1 to 5 points. More than two score stocks, Including United States Steel common, Bald win, American Can, Studebaker and other Industrial leaders established new low prices for the year. Unfavorable trade developments, which furnished the ammunition for bear attacks, Included a decrease of slightly more than 130,000 tons In the March unfilled orders of the United States Steel corporation, a shrinkage of 28,727 in the car loadings for the week ended March 29, es compared with the same week last year, and reports of further curtail ment in the automobile industry. Speculators for the decline, who have been hammering the market successfully for the last five days, had little difficulty in uncovering weak spots in ail sections of the list, but opinion varied as to the amount of real liquidation that they had brought out. While the dally turn over was the largest of any day this week, it was well under 1,000,000 shares. Commission houses reported that the number of margin calls was relatively small, considering the ex tent of the decline. This was con strued as indicating that stocks gen erally were in fairly strong hands. Publication of the unfilled tonnage statement was the signal for an other attack on United States Steel, which was depressed to 9R1-2 nnd then rallied to 98, off 1 1-2 on the day. In view of the uncertainty as to what action the directors will take concerning an extra dividend on United Slates Steel at their meeting later in the month, bear traders were reported to be rather cautious In ex tending their commitments in this stock. Speculative selling of the motors undoubtedly was Influenced by the announcement that the Paige Motor Car company had curtailed operations and that industrial employment In Detroit had shown a decrease last week. Studebaker fold stock) dropped more than 2 points to 89 1-8, IVillys Overland preferred broke more than 5 points to 68 5-8 and most of the other motor and accessory Issues slumped 1 to 3 1-2 points. Woolworth broke 9 1-4 points to 292. Fisher Body, 8 to 202, and Amer |gnn Can, Davison Chemical, Dupont, General Electric, United States Cast Iron Pipe, National Dead and Otis Steel preferred were among the many Issues to sag 212 or more points. American Sugar Refining sold at 45 14. the lowest price on record.
