dera helped to booet valuea mill higher.
Tha cIom was strong In all futurea and
they were held at tha highest level for
the net-sent crop year.
Wheat atarted nervouely And somewhat
easier due to a change or sentlnwrt on the
floor. Later offering dried up and shorts
covered freely, which etarted a rush to
buy wheat.. Values advnnced quicklv and
established m new high point for all option.
May wheat opened at $1.014 and oloaed
at l. out.
Corn was allghtly lower aarty on a weaker
wheat market, but recovered later wMh re
ports of continued wet weather and the In
ability of farmera to deliver corn over tha
Impossible mads. Prices were strong at
the clone, gaining strength on the advanc
ing wheat market. May corn opened and
closed at ao.
Primary wheat recelpla were. KMflno

NBW YORK. Feb. 19. -The latest Avmt
opments In the Iron and steal trade hava
'7"""' in grnat conrufion of opinion over
what consequences are to follow. This state
of confustnn was resnonslhl fn ih. k.i.
In speculative a-tvMy In the stock market
tats today, rather than any conviction that
tiie market had adjusted Itself to the new
conditions In the sharp fall In prices.
Tha belief Is common that a large wart
lrg requirement exists In the steel trade
which will come out with signs of revival
In Industry. The statement was current
that the leading steel makers had can
vassed the railroads of the country thor
oughly with a view to ascertain what vol
ume of orders for steel rails would be
brought out by a cut from 328 to 326 per
ton. Ths result wa reported to show a
failure to bring out the amount of orders
deemed necessary to Justify ths action. In
this case the greatest deterrent to present
action in placing orders Is said to be ths
iirxvertalntles of the tariff changes' and ths
likelihood that a new adjustment of prices
must bo made anyhow when the new duties
:!?... f'K'- The realisation that the same
difficulty must apply In greater or lees de
gree to the market for all steel products
complicates the whole problem. That ths
recently maintained level of values of the
steel Industries was an artificial one In
view of the state of trade waa the opinion
expressed with sufficient exnllcltnens by
trie price movement which has followed
rne knowledge of the new move by ths
lending authorities In the steel trade.
The liquidation of ITnlted States Bteel
continued today on a large scale, both for
home and for fnrelan rrnnnl Th. hi.
I market was affected, hut in varying de
Lgreea. The copper Industries showed mors
sympathy with United States Steel today
...... jmrriwy, i nis was partly accounted
for by reportts of another drastic reduction
In the price at which leading producers
were offering refined copper. On the other
hand there were points or reslstanca In the
railroad list. The Southern Pacific bond
icsue, although expected in an Indefinite
way, came as a surprise m manv of Its de
tails. The 382.0O0.0on to he nfftiwl
lorger than generally looked for. The deci
sion to offer the issue to stockholders at
a prlos designed to form a privilege seemed
to be taken In ft a favor and the fact that 1
the portions thus to be allotted to the
Union PRdflc Interest In Its capacity of
stockholder would meet the sum in ha neiH
to that company In Its capacity as creditor
iur aovances to its subsidiary promises to
facilitate the financing of new bonds and
lessen the strain on the money market. The
two Harrlman stocks were Inclined to firm
ness after the bond Issue was announced.
The money market waa not materially af
fected by the estimates of the week's currency-movement,
which Indicated Important
not caah change. The foreign selling of
stocks In this market helped to a sharp
upward movement In foreign rates. Re
vival of uneasiness over the Balkan posl-
iiuu wu a racior in me aepression abroad.
Bonds wore Irregular. Total sales
value, 34.716,000. United States bonds were

ths demand from this source waa limited
and the buyers very , particular as to

lower than y est onlay. Thus aa was ths
case yesterdsy, a good share of ths fore
noon was passed by without very much
progress being made toward affecting a
