New York, April 6. Speculative
confidence over'the immediate future
jof the" mority. market found furflicr
expression Jo.day in a broad advance
of sto'eks, the railroad issues taking
a minor part iu. the movement.
The' fact that the rails were
stirred, although moderately, out of
their "lethargy, was, perhaps, mare
significant than extensive- advances
of iteeJk sugar and motor shares,
tall, r. loan went at 6 ."per cent
throughout the borrowing period
fjr jnd upplies were considerably . in
.eices ti the demand on. the Stock
Exchange floor. . There were . indit
cations of: revived pool operations
in certain of the volatile industrial
i sjpeks whfch have been products on
iiuTherous occasions of the last year
of an easement of market credit.
It has happened bfor that concerted
efforts to hid up atocKs hav nhortly bean
followed by a rlm of the call loan rats,
whlthi developments " have not failed to
leave their, imprint on sentiment amona
cautious follower of the market. So long
t tint money command from 7Vi ta t
Prtent or more. It is clear that the un
derlying credit situation la tenie and too
treat atrese 'rulgbt. easily be laid uyoii
downward tluctu&tWvna In the call rate.
' Steel Dominant Fenturc.
L Strength of the. atrel mock was prob-
'J; ably tb dominant feature of tho day's
15: business. ..Large, blocks of United Statu
i Steel, r-orhmon ohanlgfd hands; developing
K greater activity In this Issue than had
w ;1b, en for some time.,-,- Traders made
jr " capital of reported large salna of copper
J".' . for jfnrelgTi aa.witfl as domestic account.
-. " ulte likely the1 very fact that sentli
' siiluittt In- thevatiwet was more hhcerful from
-. .-'Tfittial cauaea" tended' to emphasize 'The
poltvllttlea tf lnrrreaed sales abroad by
American producers, but at the earn time

German Exchange Wronger.
The occupation by French forces of
several Uerman cities was not looked
up In the financial community us an event
with serious possibilities. Rather curious.
Hly. German exchange moved fee-ward ant
the reaction which cccured In rates In
' ' other countries was connected with matt
I tors other than thosn- of military n
Ijort. . .' v " ' ;
.Sterling declined 3c to tha -pound, with
Bi ojoaing rate, ot :. ',4 lor cuecasy
f rencht Belgian arid - Italian .jnwitaMons
were reactionary throughout the day as
offerings of bills expanded over the pre
vlous day.
The advance In a week of more than
Vflc to the pound sterling naturally in
vited considerable profit-taking and It
mlKht bo assumed also, that exporters
who had been holding hack their hllla
when the market was rising, hastened
to get rid of them as soon ns a tern
porary top seemed to have been reached.
Another nizeahie shipment of gold was
received and further Imports are looked
for on ateamers soon to arrive.

Chicago Grain
8 4 ')
By CHARLES D. MICHAELS.
Chicago Trlbnne-Omah lire leased Wire.
Chicago, April 6. Action of the
grain niarkets were influenced by
the various wild rumors that have
been afloat for two days.' The most
important was that the federal
grand jury which convened late in
the day would investigate the ad
vance in grains. With this upper
most in the minds of most opera
tors there was less disposition to
buy Unless it was to cover shorts
and the bulk of the support de
veloped from time to time, came
from tin's class of operators.
.Highest, prices were made early
on the buying in of the short grains
snd provisions for E. M. Hoyne &
Co., who failed yesterday. Liquida
tion and profit-taking combined
with short selling carried prices
! down and after numerous sharp
rallies stop order selling by longs
became effective and closing trades
were well toward the inside with
; corn oil 2 3-4 to 3 7-8c, oats 1 1-2 to
. 1 7-8, rye S to- 5 1 -4c and barley 2c
lower.
Provision K1e Early,
Provision had their bulge early which
culled out heavy selling of lard by tho
Armour houses and the closa was at losses
of 2c to 24c on lard, 6c to 7Vfcc on short
rtls and 6c higher to 5c lower on pork.
Shorts liquidated In corn at the start
and longs toward the last. Prices fluctu
ated In a most erratic manner, but on
every swell thcro was heavy and per-siiti-nt
selling by strong commission
houses.' Tho local element were inclined
to keep close to shore, and the run of
commission orders at times was light.
In some Instances 15c, per bushel margin
Is being domanded of customers on corn
and 7c In oats, and In the past the calls
fur more money hava usually resulted In
liquidation. Cash corn was tjo to lc
higher early with receipts 27 cars, but
closed, lc lower.
Pritlsh and French buyers at the sea
board took nil the wheat offered there at
a reasonable hanir. Bid!) of $2.82!j were
here for No. 2 hard or rwl, track New
York. No. 3 hard sold at 12.65 here.
New Records In Outs.
Cash oats sold at $1 or over In all
v. i-sti-rn market with tha exception of
Minneapolis, setting new high records.
Oulf-ide markets were after calh grain at
Chicago and prices wero lc to 2c higher
early, but lost tho advance later with fu
tures. The latter fluctuated rapidly
within a range of lftc to 24c and ciosed
about the bottom. Buying against bids
clucked the break.
Rye flncluated rapidly within a' range,
of 4V4C to Cc and closed about the bot
tom. No. 3 on track sold at $1.8&',a.
Barley dull but firm, offerings very
limited on account of the railroad strika.
One car sold at $1.66. No ether business.
