CASH DEMAND IS DEPRESSED sme r.eneral Conditions of lKaetlv lr Hearing tslnn nisr Mstf. rnent of Cora Is Held Probable. OMAHA. March 31. l!tt. The rslly In wheat yesterday on profit taking was followed by renewed selling by shorts who had covered. New low points were established todav for this crop. All of the features of the wheat situation are unchanged; there Is the same light movement to primary points and the In slgntflcsnt demand for the cash article that hns depressed the market values for the last few months Corn receivers are looking for a larger movement from the country, as purchasers for April are mostly at a premium over .March shipments. There Is merit enough in the situation to give frequent rallies, al though the market follows the trend in wheat readily. The shipping demand .con tinues slack with no encouragement for ex port business and the decline In wheat were depressing features. There was a general spurt of selling by shorts who bad covered and taken profits yesterday. Prices broke sharply as the market had little or no support. Cash wheat ruled Mile lower. The light offerings of corn were readily absorbed and steadied the market for a time, but support was lacking and prices slumped with wheat.

Latest sales in the wheat pit were He up from the bottom flsures reached. but the slump had carried the market below any previous level since the beginning of the season. The foreign dispatches told of larger offerings from Russia and from India and gave optimistic reports of the prospect for seeding In Argentina. World shipments proved larger than had been counted upon and there was little comfort to be obtained wlie.n bulls despalrinalv turned to the domestic outlook. The tone of the close was steady. May ranged from &u'V(Mr).c and in the end was 86c, a de crease of c from last night. Big export clearances of corn enabled that cereal to recover partly from pressure by speculators mid cash houses.

PRICES FALL IN THE MORNING Bank Clearings at Tradlna; ( enters of Cnnntry Continue to Exhibit Con traction Spart In Cana dian Storks F.nds. NEW YORK, March 31 Fear of a dis turbance by the federal government of Wall street's methods of doing business was reHorted to today and became a de rided market factor, although the attorney general denied that any definite plan was afoot. Prices fell with some precipitation In the morning, rallied In the afternoon and in the last hour showed marked weakness again, the close being at the lowest level of the day. Net losses were substantial, amounting to one and two points In many of the better known Issues. The spurt in stocks of the Canadian group, which was fostered from Ixmdon. came to an end. Bank clearings at the trading centers of the country continue to exhibit contraction The total for the week was more than 'lO per cent less than In the same week of last year and nearly as much below 19ii9. Copper production at the Butte enmp was maintained during March at about the same rate as In the months Immediately preceding. Bonds were Irregular. Total sales, par value. $1,9fiR,000.

With so few cattle in sight buyers were not very long In cleaning up the offerings aa the demand for this late In the week was rair. Prices paid for all kinds of kill ing cattle, both beef steers and cow etulf, were a little stronger than yesterday. This means that the market on beef steers is Just about where It was at the close of lost week, possibly stronger. Heifers are a little stronger, posulbly lOo higher than last week. On the other hand the medium and In-between kinds of rows are no bet te tnan 8teady to possibly a little easier. There were no fresh receipts of feeders of any consequence, but there were plenty in the hands of speculators for which the demand seemed to be slack. The trade on feeders hag been slow all week and prices have been working downhill. The market on that class of stock Is safely lOrolCc lower than It was at the close of last week.

Some little business was transacted at the opening on a dime higher basis, demand at this ad vance calling for bacon weights only. After these orders were filled movement cilme to a standstill, bids that were put out during the lull averaging steady to strong with yesterday's market. Trading finally started at strong to 6u higher levels, the big end of a moderate supply selling after the early dime advance Vanished. Movement of bulk was quiet and clear ance was more or less delayed because of Inability of sellers and buyers to agree without coiiHldcrable dickering. Shippers purchased fully 10 per cent of receipts and combined droves of packers approximated 6.3-0 head.

Two dif ferent brands of Mexicans brought as much as $650. the hlgh-st price paid thus far this year. Western lambs moved at fig-1 ures possibly a little stronger, but romjie titlon for westerns did not appear to be as lively, as liupilryj for Mexicans and Improvement In valtfcs was not so pro nounced. Rest anlniHls of western bred origin sold st K16. this sale and others noted lately Indicating n wider spread be tween the two. classes of lambs than was evident Inst work. There were not very many shorn lambs on sale, but available offerings found a readv outlet at recent margins under wooled stock. Strictly prime shorn anl nmls are quotable at or near $6.60. Yearling trade was nomrniil owing to lack of supply. Sheep made up the small end of receipts snd volume of business was too limited to sfford a very broad view of the market. Various sales held about steady, western ewes reaching $6.00 and wethers of In between character going at the same price. As compared with last weeks close, sheep and lamb trade is closing on a basis strong to a (Utile higher. Stronger trend Is largely reflected by prices for high dress ing lambs snd ewes, however, and Improve ment 'In medium western lambs and year lings Is hardly worth mentioning. Total receipts for the five days are of barely normal proportions.
