. New York, April 22. Following
a sharp decline in prices during the
first half hour of trading 011 the
stock exchange today, the stock
market steadied under heavy short
covering and in the afternoon sub
stantial recoveries occurred. Many
industrial issues regained more than
half their losses of Wednesday
some closed higher than the day
before.
Liberty bonds and Victory notes
also gave a much better account of
themselves, scoring the first success
ful defense against selling pressure
seen in several days. The fourth
4J4 and the Victory 434s were the
strongest. The former had been
pushed down more persistently than
some of the other issues since the
readjustment of prices to general
interest rates began, which appeared
to further the rebound when it once
showed itself.
Because of the short maturity of
the Victory notes, investment men
had been looking for the last day
or two for a response on the part
of buyers to the high return offered.
The improvement of government
bonds occurred, as in case of stocks,
after a period of heavy trading and
fresh declines.
Large Short Interests.
The atory of dealings in stocks was
what one would expect on the hoels of so
severe a slump as that of Wednesday.
Persistent attack upon pricea had created
a large short Interest among the profes
sional trading element, of the sort which
seeks to seize profits on day-to-day de
velopments. '
When traders of this class set out to
retire their short contracts, in the after
noon, offerings were not extensive enough
to meet the demand without sharp bid
ding. Because of the prominent part
played by covering operations, It was hnrd
Iv possible to determine what underlying
Influences were at work, although the
street had nothing to support any thought
that credit conditions had been changed for
the better by the previous day's events.
And It would be short sighted to lay stress
upon the Wednesday decline in stocks than
upon the abrupt reactions which occurred
in cotton and commodities. The belief was
expressed in many quarters that stork
market liquidation had proceeded far dur
ing the winter declines of prices while ef
forts to reduce Inflation of commodities
did not then go far enough.
May Raise Question.
The question may be raised whether
or not the shock administered to grain,
cotton and allied prices was not ths
first development toward a reaction of
considerable extent In these markets. To
day, however, cotton recovered after a
feverish opening and commodities were
churned about without suffering extensive
losses. Call money lent at 7 per cant
throughout the borrowing period, but It
was reported that late applicants for
overnight aceommodatlon had to pay as
high as 10 per cent for a moderate amount
of loans.
Th foreign exchanges were weak, ster
ling In particular being affected by a
heavy pressure of bills. At the closing
price of 13.83 for cheks the decline of
3',e was recorded. Dealers reported that
offerings of bills drawn sgainst merchan
dise shipments had grown substantially
during the last two days. Those are be
lieved to have been swelled by sales of
sterling for Japanese ncount, as balances
are drawn here from London. The latest
advlcea from Tokio from the best sources
Indicate that the chaotlo conditions of
last week are being corrected and there
is no reason to believe at this time that
Japanese imports of American goods will
be severely curtailed In the near future.

Chicago Grain
By CHARLES D. MICHAELS.
Chicago, April 22. Liquidation
was on in grains at the start, corn
being Yiz to 6c lower at the opening
and oats unchanged to IJic lower.
Heavy margin calls Wednesday
night was responsible for the sell
ing and sentiment was decidedly
bearish. At the low point corn
showed 10 54 (gillie under the high
of the previous day and oats were
off S6Jtjc.
The break brought in heavy cov
ering by shorts, strong commission
houses presumable acting for a
leading New York trader who was
credited with being the best seller
recently buying corn heavily and ab
sorbed the surplus in the market. A
stampede of the bears followed,
both grains getting well above the
previous day's close.
Fluctuations Rapid.
Price fluctuations were extremely rapid,
bulges and breaks of lc or more follow
ing each other without apparent cause.
At time quotations on the blackboards
wore far away from the prices prevailing
in the pits. Toward the last there was
rather general covering by pit shorts, and
the close was lo lower on May and kc
higher on the distant deliveries of corn
while oats were ftlVsO higher. Hay
leading.
Financial conditions were the dominat
ing Influence in the market, the ordinary
run of news being decidedly bullish, but
It attracted little attention. Wet weather
again prevailed over the corn belt, delay
ing field work and frost was predicted as
far south as Kansas.
A break of 3tic in cash corn and 24c
In oats was due to readjustment with
futures, the hulk of trading the previous
day being over before futures started
downward.
Omahan Heavy Seller.
The cast was after cash corn and oat
here, but shippers were not disposed to
do business on account of the strike.
An Omaha trader who was In Chicago
waa a heavy seller of July and Septem
ber corn and talked very bearish. Ger
many was reported after corn at the sea
board and was said to have the money
In this country to pay for It.
Export demand for rye continues very
brisk, with Franco and Sweden in the
market at the seaboard. Longs sold fu
tures freely which more than offset tha
persistent buying by houses with seaboard
connections. At the close net losses w;re
lo to ll4c. No. 2 on track was nom
inally 40 to 4VsO over May.
Barley in good demand and sold at un
changed prices. A little export business
was put through at Montreal. Spot rales
were at 11.53.iU 1.63.
Kxrpnrt sales of wheat at New Tork
aggregated 1.000.000 bushels on the bails
of 13.07, track New York. Offerings hur
were, small with No. 1 hard 12.85 and
No. 4 red 12.75.
