Armed Force, Under CommanrJ
.of Dleguez,. Reaches Agua
- Prieta In State of
'. '. ' Sonora. 1
'Washington. March 3. Attention
of officials of both the -State and
War Departments was ; attracted
. Tuesday to the Mexican political
X. situation by the' reported arrival at
' Agua Prieta 'on the - northern
frontier of Ihe stale of Sonora of
, m "large force" of Mexican troops
,- under General Manuel Dieguez. The
report of he moveme'nt received
':, here ascribed as the probable mo
- tive t determination of the central
. government to, place itself in posi-
tton to meet any movement that
might be made by the forces in So-
nora, which' are reputed to be , to
support GenJAlvaro Obregon, can
didate for the presidency in opposi
tion t& Gen. Pablo Gonzales,, pop-
uiariy regaroea as tne aatnmistra
- tion's choice. . :.tfi
, The army commanded by Dieguei
' was marched from Casas , Grandes
in the state of Chuhuahua. The
troops in Sonora are directly ac
countable to , Gov. 1 Adolfo De La
. Huerta, a partisan of Obregon, who,
it was tecentiy reportea, naa tc
fused to obey an order from Mex-
ico City . to demobilize his little
army, recruited in the greater, part
"from Yaqui Indians. Obregon has
shown no clear indication of inten
tion to resort to arms, prior to the
. election, but cthe knowledge of his
popularity wf(h the natives of So
nora and other 6tates of the west
, coast, and the active opposition' to
his candidacy by the federal officials
has caused those here observing the
Mexican situation to regard with pe
culiar interest any move bytne fed-.-eral
army that might be construed
. at a coercive measure. - ' - . , ' .

By New York Times.
New York, March 3. (Chicago
Tribune-Omaha Bed Leased Wire.)
The quality of dealings in today's
stock and bond . market could be
studied from many angles without
discovering any dominant point of
interest Dullness prevailed through
out the day and the professional
traders confined their activities to a
rather limited number ot issues as
far as stocks were concerned. An
effort to bid up the oil shares in the
morning appeared to arouse a fair
amount of short covering which im
parted considerable strength to this
group for a time. But there was no
sustained, movement anywhere, and
an irregular closing reflected merely
a give and take process in which
public participation had small part
When traders who had bought rail
road stocks previous to the enact
ment of the railroad law sought to
take orofits they found a thin market
and quotations, receded easily. Call
money stood hrmly at 10 per cent.
The hardening tendency of money
rates in advance of income tax pay
ment day was 'disclosed in a stiff er
tone of commercial paper and time
loans on collateral, the former com
manding ""7 per cent for the first
quality of six months' bills.
Sagging Not Surprising.
The sagging : of railroad stocks
and uncertain changes of railroad
bonds in the last few days has not
been surprising in the light of cir
cumstances. In final analysis the
prosperity of the .carriers rests, with
the Interestate Commerce commis
sion and until this body makes clear
some of its intentions in respect to
rates the roads will not know with
surety how their future may be en
visioned. As there is a class of pre
liminary work to be done before the
roads can find, opportunity to apply
for rate increases, to take effect later
in the year, it would seem as though
sentiment in regard to railway
securities would, perforce, be slow
in taking definite and permanent
form. It is more than possible that
early impressions of events expected
to occur during the ensuing six
months may be altered considerably.
In this period the roads, if they so ;

is a chance, however, that some of

Steel Business Good. j
When one grows blue over dis
cussion of a slowing down of dov
mestic business, it is refreshing to
refer to the steel and iron trade.
Here surveys tell of an urgent pres
sure of orders, which thus far in the
year has been tempered to a moder

growing conservation among buy
ers. In February there were more
iron t furnaces in operation than in
any month since r.ebruary last year.
I he Iron Trade Review reports a
daily output last month of 102,547
tons on the averaee. compared with
97,172 tons in January and 84,741
tons in December. Inauiries for new
railroad equipment on a broad scale
are engaging the attention of steel

Chicago Grain
Chicago, March 3. (Chicago Tribune-Omaha
Bee Leased Wire.)
Profit taking by many of the lead
ing buyers of grains the past week
was on a large scale on the ad
vance today, but all offerings were
absorbed by a new set of buyers and
by shorts. The close was irregular,
with corn unchanged to S-8c higher,
oats, 3Sc to 3-4c lower, and rye,
2 l-2c to 3c higher.
Leading local professionals, who
have been the best buyers of corn of
late, and a house with Omaha con
nections, were heavy and persistent
sellers to take profits. Sentiment was
more mixed, but the immense sales
were well absorbed, and while prices
fluctuated rapidly within a range of
1 l-22c the close was; slightly
higher. March sold up to $1.48, a
new high for the season, and showed
l-4c above the outside figure made
on the February delivery. May at the
top was 11 l-4c above the! low of
last week, ,and closed at $1,401-4.
while July finished at $1,341-4 and
September at $1.30 1-2, the latter was
in new ground on the crop year to
date. ;
Cash wheat , prices, unchanged.
Receipts, 13 cars. No. 1 northern.
$2.50; No. 2 northern, $2.55; No. 4
red winter, $2.33; No hard winter
sold.
Heavy .realizing sales had a de
pressing effect on oats, and despite
the firmness in corn the close was
fractionally lower, with May, 82 S-8c
and July, 761-4c. Trade was heavy
at times, but there was little in the
situation that attracted much atten
tion. r Cash houses bought over 500.0Q0
bushels of May rye for export. Bel
gium was said to have been the
buyer for Austrian account. Bids
were 131-2c over May, track Balti
more, No. 2 on track l-2c under
May.
Barley advanced iqz witn a gooa
demand for malting grades. Spot
sales were at $1.40(5)1.53.
