Shorn lambs comprised about one-fourth of the receipts, the remainder of the run consisting of ordinary wooled grades. Wet fleeces, scarcity of refrigera tor cars and a sluggish dressed mutton trade in the east all combined to depress values and trade was very dull at lower figures. Wooled lambs were hard to move at declines of tie to 60c. with shorn lambs ruling weak to 25c lower. Choice handy wooled skins were not quotable above 0 26 but something prima In the way if shorn lambs would likely sell up to $17 7518.00.

Receipts of cash grain showed no improvement and corn jumped 3(o,oc and oats yt (njoc. readjusting to a basis with fu tures. Corn gained Sj(f ; oats 2VJ3tA, rye 78c, while barley was unchanged to c higher. . Strength In storks and cotton, an up turn of 25 60c in hogs, wet and cold weather over the west and light offerings combined to make it hard for shorts to cover. There was an absence of selling orders at the opening and stoploss orders were executed much abovo limits in con sequence. Corn had a range of 56sC and oatt 33c for the day. Kye Takes Jump. May rye at the top showed 31c above Saturday's finish, there being heavy buying by northern shorts, the realization that transportation could not be sr-cured to move grain from the northwest to fill sales here being a strong factor. The dis closure that the Immense business reported of late was genuine had a great deal to do with the buying. There was nothing to Indicate that the leading sellers of corn of late had at tempted to cover, hut a majority of the pit clement went home short Saturday night and came in early. - Opening trades were above the offers and the sellers of the latter bad to cover. Receipts Are Inlmprovcd. Receipts of cash grain Bhowed no Im provement and corn jumped from 3SJ6c and oats H3c, readjusting to a lia.xls with futures. Cash oats sold up to $1.09, a new high record here while $1.12 was paid for No. 2 and No. 3 white at .St. louls. The killing premiums of the cash oats over the futures, combined with the holdings ot the May by cash houses tends to make a sensational condition In this grain, but it is regarded as oven more no in rye and barley, the latter being held by malsters, while exporters own the rye. Export demand for wheat waa not as keen as that of late. The bulge caused the United Kingdom to pull out of thu market, while France paid $;1.07 track. New York, and $3.06 at the Gulf. Bulk ot the Canadian stock of wheat at the seaboard has been sold, either to' Europe or the United States. There was a great deal of exchanging of rye futures for the cash under way. but the only business reported was 200,000 bushels at 33c over May, track Baltimore, for June shipment. No. 2 rye on track brought $3.1614 2. 17 and barley $1.53iji CHICAGO. CLOSING PRICES. By ITpdlke Grain Co., D. 2627. April 26. Financial Bonds and Notes Art. Open. High. Corn May July Sept.

Several oi the markets made notable progress today in recovering the ground lost in last week's sharp fall of quota tions. Stocks moved upward under momentum which reached widely into the railroad department after industrial issues had recorded strength during the morning hours. Cotton advanced with considerable power and there were gains, under feverish trading, in grain and pro visions. Doubtless short covering directed by influences peculiar to the markets was largely instru mental in continuing Saturday's im provement, and comment of stock commission houses indicated that dealings were still chiefly in charge of the professional speculators. Liberty bonds moved irregularly, some beinsr higher and others lower at the close than at the end of last week. Call money lent at 7 per cent throughout the day, a level which about represented bank posi tion since Saturday s statements. w York Money Kasy. That the credit pinch Is being felt less, at the moment, at New York, than In In terior nioui'V centers wss disclosed In the fact that the local reserve bank has turned about from being a borrower of Institutions and Is now a lender to them in largo extent. Reserve banks of the west and south reported declines of their ratios of cash reserve to liabilities, while the New York bank Improved its posi tion. The overshadowing atock market In. fluence was tho long awaited decision of the supreme court in the Reading suit. although prices had maae progress up ward before this appeared. With mind set on melon cutting, shaped through Stock dividends, the speculative com munity seized eagerly upon the order that tho Reading company ohould dissolve aa the precursor of large benefits to hold ers of Reading shares. They were lifted more than 12 points and a sympathetic movement carried other rail stocks 1 to 3 points higher than the final prices ot the preceding trading day. Advance In Heading. The segregation of Reading properties. as Indicated by the court, implied the payment of Reading, Central of New Jer sey, 4 per cent bonds and rainy large buying orders brought a gain ot 9 points. Reading Kneral 4s advanced more than 4 points. The points or the decision which reached the street were relatively few and It was not known up to the time the market closed just how the provisions of the court wero to be carried out. As "Reading segregation" has been a specu. lative slogan at nil times over tho railroad shares since 1913, traders did not wait for further enlightment than a few meager facts from Wash ington before taking on lines of stock. A matter of interest In the final judg ment In this famous anti-trust suit la the fact that the New York Central and the B. o. own between them nearly $20,000,000 Reading common and more than $40,000,000 of the first and second Reading preferred stocks. It Is Impossible to estimate how a court decree of dlsso- utlon would work out, due to the Inter relation between the various Reading controlled properties and their securities. The sterling exchange market turned woak In the afternoon, following a de clining tendency of moderate proportions' earlier In the day. Offerings of bills wero reported heavier than in late dealings last week. Sight drafts at $3.3014 shohwed a decline pt 6 cents at the Close. . i ; ' . -- n Jr SmE.p e-ife-gtas 2793' .SF& rff ) I printing aCsr l r Quotation furnished by Peters Trust o. ; Am.
