Chirac Trlban-Omaha Be Led W ire, New York, Jan. 21. The note worthy incidents on today's financial market (were the rise in French ex change to the highest rate since Sep tember, the maintenance of 7 per cent call money all day for the first time in a fortnight, a general and rather sharp decline on the Stock Exchange and a very extraordinary statement of foreign trade for De cember, showing a surplus of ex ports never but once surpassed in any previous month of our commer cial history. . These curiously disconnected oc currences did not in any respect em body themselves in the 1 to 3 point fall of stocks, which affected both industrial and railway shares. Those declines, like the similar advanets of two days before, represented the ItKi-natincr fYnf fimrnts of reStleSS professional traders on one side and the other ot a maricet wnicn, n to its natural tendencies, might per haps have ceased to move at all.

Different Construction. It effect on th general bond market to perhaps less evident. The placing of a Belgian government 20-year loan on an 8 per cent basis might be construed in dif ferent ways as ao Influence on the- price ot outstanding 4 and t per cent American company securities. A compared, how ever, with the locking up of capital in unsold and unsaleable merchandise at a It t 36 per cent rls in prices over war tlm. there is something, to say, even for outstanding investment bonds. That the persistent rlss in foreign ex change wa not a result of uch contract ing American export trade a had been widely predicted, is proved by th trad statement for December, published today. So far from such reduction In export hav ing occurred, the value of our .outward trade last month, In the face of demoral ised South American exchange and falling commodity price, wa with fiv cxceptlone thraa laat year and two in 1313) the larg est In our history. Nor was thl all: for last month's Import not only declined in value $56,000,000 from November and ill 4.000.00 from the nrevlous December, but were much the amallest of any month since February of 11.

Substantial tBceipts of wheat and corn were on Hand today aua oais light. Wheat had a slow sale at prices ranging 2?c oA the market being weakest at I the close. Con siderable was carried over. Corn was unchanged to lc off, the bulk about yic off. Oats , were jSf&lc lower. Ryel and barley were not much changid. ; A Chicago wtfe- said there was considerable buying of wheat futures there today for seaboara account ana that there were fairly liberal sales overnight via the gulf, bulk of busi ness understood to De wiwi me con tinent. Chicapto house reported a complete let up in .corn offerings, the break up in country roads having stopped movement and lower prices shutting off many sellers. . Another view was expressed that enough corn has been delivered of late to keep the movement of liberal volume for about a .week rtr, more. The War Finance corporation cannot'finance exports of farm products or other goods to Germany until peade has been concluded, because it is still a technical enemy, according to the secretary of the treasury.

Chicago Tribeae-Omahaj Be 1 -rated Vlr. Chicaco. Tan. 21. Things that stood out strongly -before the grain trade today were .the liquidation and increased pressure and the export buying;. The former was of suffi cient importance to nullify t he ef fect of the export buying, after a good bulge 011 which' the trade bought and the short commitments were well reduced. During the great er part of the day prices were on the down-grade and, the close was at the lowest of the season for corn and oats and nearly at the inside for the day on wheat Net looses tvere 4 to 5'4c on wheat, lc on corn and oats, lfi to 2c on rye ana &yc on barley, with a weak and uncertain feeling.

Further weakness at Liverpool and what appeared to be the collapse of the bull pool which had been attempting a squeeze in the January option, sent cotton prices down again sharply today. The break extended about 85 points at the extreme and the close was very near the low prices for the day. This break took the list, down 150, to practically 200 points under the recent high, which was made a week ago Wednes day, and at the lows two of the active options, March and May, were under 16c. Selling on a fairly large scale developed directly after the opening, and aside from very occasional rallies, none of which ac complished much, the tendency wa down ward consistently. March suffered more than any other month and scored the ex treme break of the day of 88 points. There wa nothing especially interest ing in the trade situation here and the ring was not . inclined to pay any atten tion to trade conditions, being entirely taken un with what was coins: on in the market.
