MAKES ANOTHER HIGH RECORD PRICE Wlirnt Dull nntl L'lilntrrratlnar ttIIIi Mnrket .rnrly nt Ntnniliitlll Ont CiiiiIIiiiio HIiikkInIi I'm v In to im Ojiett Steady. CHICAGO, Mnrch 28.-Spcculatlvc Interest on chango wus iiK'iln focused on corn to day ntvl the market, after estnhllshlng n now high record for Mny, closed ?iu over yesterday. Other markets were dull, wheat closing unchatiKed, oats u shudo up and provisions 2Vd5o deiircBsed. Corn opened with sentiment only a shado easier, although the rather bearish en- Kemlilo of news tnlitht have excused greater wcaxness in a marKci less coiiinieni ot tne emallness of stocks. The weather, to begin with, was Improved, receipts were liberal und contaltiid a larcelv Increased propor tion of contract corn, while cables were In- uiriercm. .otwiwiMtaniung tins array 01 conslderutlnns the market opened un changed at 42'fc and In a few minutes touched I2',4fi isfte. Trade was light for the moment. One llrm let out ino.oii) bu. and reported freer country offerings and tho Initial llrmuesR was replnced by a tone of greater ease, May dropping to 42c, Hero tho market steadied ami began that steady appreciation which culminated In a new high record price for May delivery, doing It Jn the faco of strenuous efforts of certain bear hotiHCH to hold It. The bull leader was only a moderate buyer, but outsiders, who Heein to Im the stanchest hulls In thu mar ket, together with scalpers who sold early mid uulckly ran to cover, were purchasers and May .during tho afternoon touched 4'lc. Hear reslstanco had gradually been snuffed out and probably M.w) bu. would cover the offerings ut the top price. Tho close was strong, "ic over yesterday, nl 12?fec. Local receipts were 183 cars, 37 of contract grade, while at primary points receipts were IIIT.OOO bu., compared with 771,'Mn) bu. a year into. The advance curtailed chipping bids. Vhcat was dull, narrow and uninterest ing. Much of tho time business was at a utuudsttll, while traders turned 11 wistful cyo on tho superior animation of corn. It was tho strength of this market which unveil whent from succumbing to tho preva lent bcarlshncss. Even reports of lly dam igcs wero received with apathy. Heavy re ceipts and tho weakness of tho export situ utloii, thu mild clear weather and tho optmlsm of the 1'rlco Current report com bined to create bearish sentiment. It was Judged unwise to tempt fate too far, with tho bullish corn market so close a neighbor, and May, having opened a shade to y.e lower at 75,c to 7'4lj75Tie, declined only to 7rc. A long period of Rtaguatloii followed this decline, till near the closu tho market rallied In sympathy with corn und closed unchanged at 7."i7Ge. Exporters reported 20 loads taken. Seaboard clearances In wheat and Hour were equal to fifil.COO bu., While primary receipts aggregated 748,000 bu compared with KW.oOO bu. a year ntfo. Local receipts wero 00 cars, nono of con tract grade. Minneapolis nnd Dullith re ported a total of 201 cars, against 377 last week and 490 a year ago. Tho l'rlco Cur rent not only minimized reports of lly tliim nge, but declared that tho weutucr was un favorable to Insect life. Oats wero In excellent demand for ship ment, but for future delivery business was tdugglsh and prices appeared to bo In need of all tho strength corn could lend. It was reported from New York, howuver, that oats, were beginning to attract more at tention and that Germany, after long Idle ness here, had bocomo a buyer. English In quiries wero numerous' and It was said that no surprise would bu occasioned should Franco enter the lists. Receipts hero wero 104 cars. May sold between 25c and 23Uc und closed a shado higher at 23Uc. Provisions wero dull nnd easier. Tho murket'opened steady on light hog receipts and higher prices for tho same, but soon turned easier on selling by packers and loOnl operators. There was a good cash de mand. May pork sold between J15.70 nnd JIMO and cloned 2.r,c lower at J15.47H: May lard, between JS.07',4 and $S. closing 2V4iiic down at J8.02W. and May ribs, between W "nd J7.W, with tho close 7c depressed ut 7.9-5.

Mareb 28 Thn stnek mar ket continued highly professional today nnd distinctly two-sided. Tho outside specula tive public Is stlh on the side of tho bulls nnd that element of tho speculation con tinued to havo the situation well In control. Any new point of strength which they de veloped was tiretty well assured of a re sponse from the following of smaller specu lators, who keep the current markot going. The selling to tuku profits continued very large nnd was so skilfully managed as to do little damage to prices, but there was a bear clement amomr tho traders und they made occasional demonstrations in the mar ket when the burden of tho realizing seemed In a wnv to overcome the advance. The bear clement, however, attracted llttlo outside following and their operations were not conducted witn great confluence. Tlie most nrnmlnent nnsltlon In the trndltnr was still held by Northern Paclllc and Hurling- ton nnu tne constantly recurring strengtn of these stocks made nn effective support for the whole market. In tho same degree their many reactions on profit taking af fected the speculative tone, tiurllngton onened under 'nressure nnd nftor having advanced to a record prlco nt 17H4 closed with a net gain of Jnly ',. Northern Pacllio also made a new high record nrlce at 93U, nnd closed with a net gain of 1. Theru were renewed reports to day nt a pian to retiro Nortnern l'aciuc preferred und renorts still ncrslsted of un agreement for consolidation of Northern Paclllc and Hurllngtnn. The courso of the steel stocks upon tho entry of tho United States Steel Cornnratlnn stocks fwhon Is sued) Into the untitled department of the exchango wan a strengthening Inllucnce. Aitnoug.n mere was a largo selling to rea lize in these stocks ample support was forthcoming nnd thu common was run un somo 2 points over yesterday's price on tho curb and tho preferred rather moro than that. Tho stocks of tho constituent companies wero strong in sympathy", the common nnd preferred stocks all rising from 2 to 2. There wero other points of special strength, such ns Western Union, Manhattan, the Wheeling & Jtko Erie stocks showing gains of from 2 to 3i and Lackawanna, which mounted 9 points to far above tho highest preceding price. Out. side of theso Individual stocks there were few that rose nt any, time much ns a point over last night and mnny of tho recently prominent stocks wero constantly held buck by the pressure of realizing. Tho rubber stocks reacted widely from yesterday's advance, tho common losing 2',4 and tho preferred 4',S. In tho last half hour of tho market, on tho decision of tho New Jersey court of appeals In favor of the plaintiffs in tho suit to enjoin tho absorp tion of the Guggenheim Interests, tho smelt ing stocks broko violently, .tho common fall ing to G',4 and tho preferred 5"4 below last night's level. This helped tho close, which was also .affected by the large profit taking sales. Discussions of the money market out look continues. In view of ., tho coming quarterly settlements und the uninter rupted druln by tho subtrensury. Stcrllhg' exchange nlso recovered today, renewing tho apprehension of gold exports. Tho largo loan expansion of the Hank of Eng land might under ordlnury circumstances bo expected to bo repaid after tho quarterly settlements huvo been met, but tho gov ernment Is expected to como forward with nn offer of tho new loan, so that no relax ation pf tho prcssuro for money Is looked for In London in tho Immediate future.

Tho Commercial Advertiser's Loudon financial cablegram says; Uuslness on tho Stock exchange hero was brisk today. ami tho tone was ono of cheerfulness through out thu market. Consols continued to ad vance, urged on by the hopo of chonivr money, Tnero Is nn opinion which Is grow Ing dny by day that tho government will refrain from any further Issues of coiuols until after the war Is over. It is believed the government lias practically decided not to borrow any moro In this way, because tho low prlco for consols now would mean marketing n new issue at the most un worthy level of 91. American shares wero buoyant throughout tho list and through out tho dny. London wnii a buyer of Northern, Pacifies, Denver preferred nnd Erles. Coal stocks, especially, but tho list generally, were strong on fresh reports that J. Plerpont Morgan had succetded In avurtlng u strike In the coal fields. Now York supported prices freely, nerlln bought calls on Northern and Union Pacifies, Erles nnd Readings, chlelly end of May or the beginning of June. Gold to the extent of 100,000 Is going out to South America. Tho hank has bought 18,000 of gold In bars. Money was scarce, though the sales were unchanged ou the exchange settA-meut and tho end of the month demand. The market borrowed 2,000,000 from tho bank.

Tne uemanu. however, was In ralrly good shape and there were no rndical changes in prices. Reeelnts Included about 45 cars of beer steers nnu tne uclter gruaes soin in jusi nbout yesterday's notches. Good, heuvy cattle tor export or good handy weight cattle were. In the best demand and no change was noticeable In the prices paid ror them. Tho commoner kinds, howovor, did not move as freely und sellers In some cases naa to tano less money ror tnem than tho samo kind sold for yesterday. Tho ract that there wero quite a rew cattlo on sale cave buyers a chance to discriminate uguinst the undesirable grades. There was not lis much mo to the cow market this morning ns has been the case the greater part of the week. Uuycrs were inclined to pound prices a little and In some cases thev succeeded and In others they did not. Tho mnrket for that reason was a trifle uneven und thero wus no gen eral decline on any kind. Some of the better grades sold lower, as well as tho s deslrublo kinds. The market could perhaps best bu described by calling it steady to weak in extreme cases. uuiiH ma not. snow mucn cnango in tne prices pnld today, but sellers found tho murket a llttlo dull. Veal calves brought steady prices. There were oulto a few .feeders hero to day, and, although speculators huvo a good many on nanu, mey unugni up wnni was offered at nbout steady prices. This has been a dull week In stock cattle, as the demand from the country has been very light und the cattle have been accumulat ing, but In spite of that fact prices on tho better grades have held Just about steady.
