    THE BEE: OMAHA. FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 21, 1919.
FINANCIAL
New York, Nor. ID. A oomprehsnslv
rally of from I to 10 points In the (tock
market today gave promise that reaction
ary Influences ara In retreat Tba rlao
followed barly misgivings that tha dafaat
of tha pence traaty might precipitate an
other dacllna.
, Stocki wer heavy lmot waak at tha
' outsat But thla condition waa ovarcome,
van thouglf axchanta on London and
other foreign centers fell to lowest quota.
tlona ever recorded here.
Front their flrat rally atocka showed
almost steady Improvement, the advance
being attended by the easiest money In
more thaa a week. 'Throughout tha ses
sion brokers reported substantial buying.
Including many "odd lots" puchased by
tha usual bargain hunters. Only a mod
erate amount of money was In dsmand at
tha opening rate of 10 per cent, the In
quiry evidently being so light as to causa
a drop to t par cent with the approach
of the final hour. Time money waa again
quotably unchanged, but reports credited
Interior Institutions with making loans at
as low aa 7(4 per cent
The strength of such recent weak Issues
as Crucible Steel, General Motors and
Mexican Petroleum, leaders In their re
spective groups, suggested that the sfcorts
were having some trouble In covering. Thla
waa applicable to many less speculative
stocks of which the available supply
seemed very scant. Maximum prices were
made In the final dealings when United
States Steel and others were at their beat.
Bsles amounted to 1,200,000 ehares.
International Issues rallied, but the do
- mestla bond list, Including the Liberty
group, iixii moderately lower. Total sales,
par value, aggregated $14,500,000.
Old Unttxd States bonds were unchanged
on call.

of she stock was on hand, but it la most
ly of noor duality and is selling at uneven
prices. Today's market was generally
steady. As compared with last Friday
the very best quality cows ana canners
are about steady while the Inbetween
grades are selling 1015o lower.
Supply of stockers and feeders was
moderate. Drlces were all the way from
steady to a little easier with very little
good stuff on hand. For the week the
market is considered about steady.
Suuoly of western beef Is falling oft
what steers sra received are much poorer
quality than a couple weeks ago. Prices

Chicago, Nov. 20. Strength developed
In the corn market today despite a weak
beginning. Fluctuations were governed
chiefly by the action of the New York
stock market and developments regard
ing sterling exchange. The close was
firm. o to lc net higher with De
cember 31.31 to $1.33 and May, $1.25
to $1.25. Oats finished unchanged to
c higher and provisions unchanged to
660 up.
Although circumstances at first gave
an advantage to bears In the corn mar
ket, no great pressure to sell was appar-.
ent. Only moderate declines resulted
from the new low record.
Large receipts ot corn here failed also
to exert more than a mild bearish Influ
ence. It soon became evident that with
pronounced rallies In the stock market
and In sterling the price of corn would
also ascend. It was not, however, until
the last half hour that decided gains
were scored with the help ot advices that
American mixed corn waa selling In Great
Britain at about $1.88 a bushel.
Oats merely paralleled the changes In
the corn market.
Provisions like cereals were weak early
and then rallied. Increased setbacks In
the hog values at the last received but lit
tle notice. (

New York Coffee.
New York, Nov. 20. The market for
coffee futures opened at a decline ot 22
to 30 points under liquidation and selling
by brokers with cotton trade and Wall
Street connections Influenced by nervous
ness over the peace treaty, the early
weakness of exchange, unsettled general
conditions and lower cables from Brasll.
After selling off to 16.60c for March or
about 27 to 38 points net lower, the mar
ket rallied rather sharply on reports of
a better tone In the stock market and
sterling exchange rates, but recoveries of
17 or 20 points met renewed liquidation,
encouraged by lower cables from Santos.
March closed at I6.660 with the general
Hat closing at a net decline of 17 to 36
points. A festure of tha trading was

March to later deliveries.
