Th moet Important liem of new for the wheat trading at th opening waa th esti mate cabled here that Argentina shipments of whest for the week wer likely to reach C.ono.ooo bu. Tbi prediction on the move nient from th South American country waa soon followed by on on tha week's movement from Australia, which placed e ports from the latter country at 1.400.000 bu. Aa a result of these statistics sentiment In the pit wss bearish during th first hour. There wa general selling by commission house and also some profit-taking by th leading holder. Toward midday a firm tone developed. Inspired largely by th ac tivity and strength of coarse grain. Cash wheat continued to sell at stiff prices ow ing to ths brisk demand by millers, and this helped to strengthen options. Trade In the pit, however, was Inclined to drag through out the entire dsy and the range of prices was narrow. May sold between 11.12 and ILltfti. The market closed easy, with May at tl.irvfrl.lt. and July at 11.00. - Decided strength marked trading In the corn pit. the May delivery scoring a new high record mark for the present upward movement of prioea at tHc. Other dellver 'es were1 almost equally as strong. The "weather map" waa chiefly responsible for the bullish situation. Unsettled weether was reported throughout the corn belt and tha official forecast predicted additional rain or snow tonight and tomorrow. Re ports from Illinois indicated that the move ment of grain to market was being delayed by the poor condition of country roads. An sdvance of &lc In the price of the cash grain was an Important factor. The market reacted from the Mgh point of the day ow ing to selling by cash Interests, but closed firm, with May at tWVuiWHe and July at tkc. Oats scored a net gain of 1c for the day, compared with the closing quotations of the previous session. During th dsv the May delivery sold at. f"o, a new high record mark for the season. Trading was unus ually acttve and commission houses re ported a large Increase In buying order from outsiders. The demand waa based mainly on the stock of oats In store, which is said to be extremely light, and on the reserves, which are ssld to be fsr below those of last yesr. The Illinois report showed stocks In farmers' hands to be 16 per cent smaller' than a year ago. The market closed strong at almost the top, with May at 66M.o,c and July at 49'c. Provisions were rather weak at the start, owing to a JOc decline In live hogs, but ral lied with the bulge In coarse grsln and closed at net advances of S1Mf6c to fciTTHe.

Steel Prodaets anal Illness ml K. H. Harrlssaa. NEW YORK, Feb. 11 The stagnation that ha prevailed in the stock market wa changed today Into an active Gelling move ment without any counterbalancing demand to meet It. A severe inroad on price waa the coi'iequenre. The whole market hinged on th develop ment In th steel trade. While no formal announcement wss made during the session of the Stock exchsnge It wss generally known that conferences were going on among official of the I'nlted State fiteel corporation which wa likely to Issue changes In tha schedule of price which had been determinedly hekt by the corporation. The notable effect on sentiment produced by this development owed Its depth to It abrupt reversal from the supposed deter mination of th corporation to hold to It former policy. Report that the Independ ent steel rnmpanios were making conces sions and were getting what business wss clone were met by deprecatory comment on the small proportions of such business as to the capacity of the trade at large and It lack of significance aa a reflectiem of trad conditions. A different view of tha situstlon seems to have been adopted some tlm yesterday. 'The stock market promptly took up the burden of this reversal of pol icy and began to discount sn expected rut In teel prices. The position was compli cated by the fact that the market prices of the stock of the United Btste Steel cor poration had been held by main force aa well as the prices of Its product. Bine the common stock was allotted to the cor poration's employes at 60 thera has been widespread aasumption that adequate sun port would be'glvcn the msrket to prevent the price falling below thst pmnt. The ac tion of th atock dlscoursged bear selling and prompted covering of shorts aa oftsn as that account grew to anything like un wieldy proportions. The belief that the po sltloh so long maintained by the leading steel Interest waa about to be abandoned undermined tha whole market. It was sup plemented aa a factor bv the fear that the state of K. H. Hnrrlman' health was not such as to enable him -to carry out the projects which have been a main Incentive to speculative confidence on the part of a large element In the market. ' This feeling seemed to have taken hold of foreign mar kets as well as this and London sent Im portant selling orders In the Harriman stocks to New York for execution. It was a notable fact at the same time that other stocks included In Mr. Harriman' sup posed plans wers amongst those which showed some degree of resistance to the prevailing depression. There waa a ahow of firmness si so smongst the copper min ing snd refining shares In spite of a further marking down In the price of copper metal In New York-and London. The progress ctt the dispute over freight differences between Boston and seaboard trunk line terminal to the- south had some disturbing effect. Additional gold engagements for shipment to South America had no Influence on the money market on call, loan rate showing some Increased ease. The rent of the de clines Invited soma large buying around the low levels by the bears In the taking of their profits on the ahort aide. ' Thl ral lied pricea and considerably reduced the extreme declines, but the course was down ward again at th close. Bonds were easy. Total sales, par value, t4.4WS.ao.
