BIG TRADER BUYS AND SELLS I Salii t n. Responsible Cor the Fluctuation In the Corn Mar ket Onts Fallow Other Grains In (hnugrs. ' OMAHA. Fob. 20, 1913. The action of the wheat market for several days past shows that the longs fear the probable rains In the winter wheat belt, which would causa a general unloading by longs, as well as heavy short selling. Quietly, but persistently, the May wheat has come Into the open on all the hard spots and there has been rather free selling of July as well. The May option held up best, however, yesterday. Rains are needed In the spring wheat country In order to facili tate farm work, which will soon com mence with favorable weather. Opinions have been expressed by wheat holders of the northwest that only 10 per cent of the plowing In three states was finished last fall, but one of the best authorities In the Chicago market with connections throughout the northwest country, says that his advices show tully SO per cent of plowing has already been done, nnd that the seeding of wheat this spring will be earlier than usual In consequence It Is said that heavy deliveries of whent will be made on May contracts av o. lunula, ii n atnr.ka them ore liberal and the cash market Is at a Btandstlll. These samo conditions surround the market at Kansas City as well, although tno casn wheat In the latter market, as Is the case at Chteairn. 1r In atrnnir hands, and un less conditions favor the bears the deliv eries will not be. large, at Chicago at least. While tho averaco speculator Is not worrying Ids brain because of enor mous stocks of wheat at Minneapolis and Duluth, as welt as in Interior elevators in tne spring wneat country, me ques tion naturally flit through his brain, What aro the holders to do with this wheat, and what would thev have to ac cept for it in case they forced It upon the nwKct ror sale? Cash snlna of whent In Chlcaso VCSter day were small at 25,000 bushels, which Is a poor showing for a market witn aa large a territory tributary to it as Chi cago enjoys. Cash wheat, Uc lower. It was the gossip of the corn pit yes terday that one large trader, who bought May and July corn all morning, dumped the greater part of it at the close and was responsible for the late weakness. Pome claimed that he was still long, and that professionals, who are mostly bearish, had out a little short corn last night The bulls are said to be long 12,000,000 bushels of corn that has been bought from hedgers, and a liberal per centage will probably be delivered In Ma,y. Cash corn unchanged nt Uo lower. Oats followed other grains In their price changes and closed fractionally lower than yesterday. Caah oats Vio to Mo lower. Clearances of wheat and flour were 87,000 bushels; corn, 417,000 bushels; oats none. Wheat at Liverpool closed ttd lower; corn, UJTHd lower. Primary wheat receipts were 752.000 bushels and shipments 465,000 bushels. Primary corn receipts were 1,71!,0i0 bunhels and shipments 782,000 bushels. Primary oats receipts were 689,000 bush els and shipments 624,000 bushels. There wore no receipts and shipments for this day last year, as it was a holi day.

CHJCAGO, Feb. 20. Revival of export demand In the west for shipment by way of the gulf gave the wheat market today an upward slant. The close was neroua at a shade to Aftc over last night. Corn made a net gain of HtfVic and oits 1-160 to ViSVJc. In provisions tho out come varied from 57Ho decline to a rise of 2Hc. Owing to rain or Bnow extending from Oklahoma to South Dakota, wheat at first took a down turn. The market wis bearlshly affected aUo by predictions that world shipments for the week wouid be large. For the time being northwestern reports of decreased arrivals formed tho only offset In favor of the bulls. News that foreigners were buying wntat In Omaha to bo routed via New Orleans effected a complete change lr,' pit senti ment. The result was to add quickly o to prices here, and this notwithstanding that a cold wave was putting an epd to the deposit of molsure in portlona of the winter crop belt. However, a group of big houses with free orders to sell at any further advance brought about a feeling of uncertainty as trading came to ul end, Primary receipts were 762,000 bubn els. against a holiday last year. Clear ances of wheat and flour equaled 417,000 bushels. Corn found friends when wheat began to ascend. Besides, there were com plaints that rural hauling was hauJI capped by the 'eoftness of roads. Oats were firmer on aocount of belief that the weather was unfavorable for marketing, though lees so than for corn. Provisions responded late In the ses sion to the strength shown by grain. Earlier the bears were In control be cause of the liberal run of hogs here and at other leading points. Closing quotations ranged na follow-): Artlclel Open. I High. I Low j Close.j Yea'y, ,TLI . I.
