Chicago Tribune iorelgn News Service.
New York, March 19. A few in
dustrial stocks advanced with much
strength today and the trend of the
gfneral list, excepting the "railroad
shares, was upward until the late
afternoon. The last two hours of
business saw a heavy flow of real
izing sales and the array of prices
at the close was highly irregular.
Still, the impetus of steel, oil, mo
tor and miscellaneous issues was suf
ficient in the morning to leavo room
for a substantial reaction from the
top without recording net declines
for the.day and a half-dozen boister
ous issues were from 3 to 16 points
above Thursday's last quotations
when the market closed. The man
ner in which such new issues as
Vanadium Steel and Replogle Steel
were bid upward, suggested pool op
erations and speculative aptivity was
evidently concentrated in other
stocks.
Coll Money Plentiful.
Call money ruled at 7 per cent and
there were adequate offerings a this
figure, a fact which emphasized the ease
ment of temporary loans. This week the
quotations of the active shares have
scored a substantial Increase, necessitat
ing an expansion of the amount of bank
credit needed to carry stocks on margin.
Brokera are able to get little more time
money now than a month ago, so it would
seem that demand loans are bearing more
of the load caused by increased stock
dealings and a rising price level than was
the case last October and September be
fore a real credit stringency developed.
The question may well be raised whether
easy-relatively easy-call money may be ex
pected during the next few weeks. Next
month the agricultural communities will,
If the procedure 01 other years is followed,
call upon their banks for -currency as
the crop planting season comes on. As
suming that interior banks are much en
gaged in tne financing 01 commercial
undertakings, as reports show to be the
case. It may easily happen that with
drawals of balances from the major
centers will have an appreciable effect in
cutting down supplies of loanable funds
lor stock market use.
Bankers Not Convinced.
Bankers are not altogether convlnved,
however, that the flow away from New
York during the spring weeks will be as
large as would be the case if the pressure
of the federal reserve board had not
caused, commercial banks all over the
country to present a conservative front
to borrowers since January. Transportation
conditions have been growing somewhat
better of late and backed-up goods, being
carried on credit, have been going to
market. That the freer movement of
goods entails the liquidation, loans need
not be said, and, provided that while
many standing loans have been liqui
dated, the demand for new loans or ex
tensions has been controlled by the bank
ers, there may be evidence of a generally
improved credit situation before the spring
Is advanced far.
The outlook la not vt rle.r nmich n
afford a basis for judgment Today's bank
statement should supply some Interesting
leiieuung events at tnis center In

making allowance for a short month. The
outflow of American goods was, however,
more than $60,000,000 in excess of the
preceding February's total. The stated
export balance for February was $179,000,

sterling exchange continued its strong
rise with a late reaction. At the best
quotation the demand rate was lOo higher

year's record up to date by 6 cents to the

new high record . for 1920 by Itself.

Decatur (III.) wires:
Some little corn has been sold at $1.50
by the farmer tire last few days, but no
large amount, to any one station. Cara
are still scarce and roads are in bad con
dition and do not think recepts will be In
creased much from sales recently made
by the farmer. Industries bought quite a
little corr. a few days back, but their
prices bought practically all the local corn,
as they were high. Since Wednesday very
little corn has been offered them. Re
ports on wheat are more favorable than
some time ago.
Modern Miller says: Conflicting reports
on crop promise are coming from nearly
all states in the winter-wheat, belt.
Higher temperatures and scattered rains
have Improved the plant and It is greening
up in all parts where it was brown a
fortnight since. Condition Is low in.
parts of Kansas, Oklahoma and Missouri.
High winds and dust storms in other
states have caused damage. Hessian fly
damage covers sections of northern In
diana, parts of Missouri, Illinois and Ohio.
Heavy rains necessary In early May to
combat advancement of the little pests.
Chicago Tribune says:
Indications are for a slightly larger
movement of corn and oats from the
country. One St. LouIb house bought 77,
600 bushels of corn in Iowa and over 100,
000 bushels were bought In Illinois, the
latter at $1.50. Scattered reports of a bet
ter car situation arrived from the country.
Eastern roads are promising more cars.
A leading cash handle figures that the
6,000,000 barrels of grain' corporation flour
which will be sold to Europe on credit
should have a depressingeffect on rye
values as It Is equal to around 25,000,000
bushels of the latter grain. With Europe
able to buy on credit, it is not likely to
try and secure rye for which, it must pay
cash.

Chicago Grain
BY CriARLES D. MICHAELS.
Chicago Tribune-Omaha Bee Leased Wire.
Chicago,. March 19. A collapse
of the bull movement in grains came
in the last hour, which ended in the
most severe break they have had in
40 days. The finish was at almost
the lowest of the day, with corn off
3c to for futures from' the
close of the previous day and cash
prices 4c to 7c below the top figures
of that day. Oats futures were f4c
to IJ4C lower and cash lots 2c to 4c
off. Rye 2c to 2c lower and bar
ley 4c lower. (
A h-eavlly oVer-bought condition de
veloped in corn, and with liquidation and
stop-loss orders In volume prices declined
sharply, after the market had shown
great resistance to pressure up to noon.
The biggest trade and sharpest decline
came sfter May bad broken through $1.65,
after selling at $1.67 K. Rumorj of an
investigation by the attorney general and
a break of lo to 7o In cash prices were
the main depressing influences.
Winter Wheat Higher.
The senbirard paid $2.8 for No. 2 fcard
winter, track New York, here. Winter
wheats unchanged to lc higher and
springs uncharged.
Cash oats led the decline in prices to
day as they led the advance of late.
Premiums dropped lo to 2o from the
high of the previous day, with sample
values lo 'to 4o lower, while futures, after
showing independent strength early, broke
badly with corn and closed about the
bottom. .....
Rye was dull and easier, being affected
by the break in other grains. Spot No.
2 .was 1K over May with sales at $1.75.
-Barley declined lo to 2c on all grades
except very choice. Offerings larger.
Spot sales were at $1.62 1.65, the lat
ter for seed. .
