Chicago Grain and Provisions.
Chicago, Jan. 6. Pronounced strength
developed in the corn market today owing
to stormy weather and to surprising amall
ness of receipts. The close was firm. lc
to Mio net higher, with May $1.36tt to
$1.3614 and July $1.34 to $1.34. Oats
gained e to c. In provisions there was
a setback ranging from 5c to 65c
Corn prices jumped rapidly as soon as
It was known that arrivals here amounted
to only 60 cars, whereas at this season
600 would not have been abnormal in other
years. Rain and snow made the outlook
still more unpromising for a big move
ment and gave a decided Impetus to buy
ing. Besides, a large export business in
oats, rye and barley appeared to be In
progress, despite the low rate ot foreign
exchange. Under these circumstance the
upward swing of the market was but little
hindered by a sharp break in hog values.
Similar results followed announcement
that the federal reserve board would take
action against unnecessary loans-and that
an Increased number of cars would be fur
nished to railroads In the grain belt.
Advances in the oats market were
checked somewhat through profit taking
on the part of recent heavy buyers.
Immense receipts ot bogs weakened
provisions.
FINANCIAL
New Tork, Jan. The significant fea
ture of today'a stock market was the re
action which set In a the publication ot
the address of Governor Harding of the
federal reserve board at Washington to
leading bankers ot the country, advising1
reduction of "unessential loans."
Liquidation was not disorderly In any
Instance, but the rapidity with whleh lead
ing shares fell 2 to 5 points and the spe
cialties 3 to nearly 10, indicates that the
market remains extremely sensitive to
monetary conditions.
It Is yet too early to forecast the effect
ot the reserve board's recommendations,
but conservative financial Interests are
known to be In accord with the attitude
of the central ank, especially" where
stocks ot speculative character are con
cerned. !
There was again a dearth of time
money, but call money or demand loans
which opened In free supply at 8 per cent,
the lowest Initial quotation since the No
vember setback, fell to 6 per cent later,
despite the warnings conveyed In the news
from Washington.
Ralls were the only important shares to
hold their ground while liquidation was
under way. but shippings, steels, oils,
motors, and their subsidiaries and high
priced specialties, notably American Wool
en, yielded easily.
Some of these same lsiues were among
the first to rally on the lower call rate of
the lust hour. American Woolen being used
in another drive against the shorts with
several of the oils, sugars and miscellane
ous issues, Including Endicott-Johnson.
Sales amounted to 1.230,000 shares.
Bonds were heavy In the main, although
several investment rails and high grade
industrials made material advances. Lib
erty and international issues were irreg
ular within contracted limits. Total sales
(par valuel were $17,750,000. Old ITnlted
States bonds were unchanged on call.
