By ALEXANDER DANA NOYES.
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.
Foreig Exebang Beotnreri.
Foreign exchange mad a Quick recovery
of th losses incurred in the lat market
of Thursday. Sterling did not racn tn
high rate of the week, but it closing
figure of $8.77 hi today compared with
$3.33 at the low autumn level of November
and th advance In continental rate.
brought most ot them wen aoovo .njr
nrevloua Quotation of the year. Scan
dinavian exchange sold near ltc per
crown higher wan tnre aays a
th advance of the same period in the
Belgian rate ha been o per franc, but
the day' notable movement was in ex
k... p.rl. The franc at lt.7.
old today almost io higher than a week
ago and more tnan io aoove m
level price of 6.76e reached November IV
It is still will below the rate of laat Jn
urv. but the ravldlty of th feOCOt re
covery ha been remarkable,
Thl movement or io reign ncnani
was undoubtedly based 4m the (t-uwtntt
realisation that. In th altered xituatton
lilTsxjBn
sorption ot numerous Important Soropean
now axlating on our money and
markets, th ready placing and gulk ab
loana 1 (mured. People oiosely In touch
with, the situation have apt dqubted th
fact dlnce th beginning of th year, but
today' virtual announcement of the $30.
000,000 Belgiaa loan mad mors tangible
lmpreastcB.
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. The resultant ex
port surplus, $454,000,000 has never been
surpassed except for the wholly abnormal
$(36,000,000 outward balance of June, 1S13.

Omaha Grain
Omaha, Jan. 21.
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 Grain
Bonds and Notes
By CHARLES D. MICHAELS.
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. Receipts, 28 cars.
Corn was under pressure all day
and while bulgintj for a time, broke
to new low levels of ,6740 for May
H thrr. Liauidation was
on in large volume until the inside
prices were reached, consignment
notices were liberal and arrivals 474
cars. Cash discounted dropped Vi
to lc on the poorer grades. Export
sales were 50.000 bushels and do
mestic 35,000 bushels. ,
Oat Lower.
Oat were down to 4314c for May. a
new low. and closed to, J over that
figure. Long stuff came out freely while
huvlna- was scattered. Cash, price were
off 2c at the lat. with shipping sales,
lSll.OOO bushels. Receipts. 67 cars.
Rye was bought by seaboard houses
and sold by local operators, who were
spreading between wheat and ry at 10
difference. ' . ,
Barley wa oia oy """" -
broke. .
Pit Notes. .
Export demand for wheat from abroad
became very active as the result of thj
decline, with sales of 1,150.000 hushels
confirmed by western cash handlers, in
cluding 650,000 bushels to Germany, 350,
000 bushels to Italy, and 150 000 bushels to
Belgium. First half 6f February Joadlmj
at the gulf wa 21 c, over March. Chi
cago handlers sold 60.000 bushels corn to
seaboerd Exporters. Two cargoes of wheat
were offered for resale at the seaboard and
48-pound barley was offered atf tc, track
New Tork. .
Domestic shipping sales were 27,000
bushel wheat, 35,000 bushel corn, and
123.00 bushel oats. "
No change was noted in premiums, on
cash wheat Vat Chicago, with No. 2 fed,
1722c over, No. 2 hard, !07c over,
I Vn 1 .nnrttl.rn. 10tfif18c .OVer March.
St. Louis cash wheat was unchanged .tor
So lower; Kansas City, 103c lower at tne
last on hard winter and unchanged on
red, while Omaha was 24o lower.
Wheat traders were taken by surprise
bv the report of a large , order at New
York from Portugal. It came to a. large
hankina- house in New Tfcrk and asked
that the quantity offered' be extended to
600.000 tons in tne aggregate. 11 w
disbelieved for a time, but confirmed at
tb last by the New York bank.
Traders were encouraged to sell by tn
report that two cargoes of wheat had been
reaold by seaboard exporters, Despite this
buvlng. selling continued strong after top
price had been reached with much long
grain coming out for eastern account
while buying support was peer and main
ly agalnat bids and to take potlt;on re
cent sales. At the Inside ." prices
were off 7c on March nd 8e for May
with the close $1.65 to $1.65 for March
and $1.54 to $1.55 for May. Exports
for the week of 4.888.000 bushels were the
smallest in recent weeks and compared
with 4.119,000 bushels laet year. Nothing
was heard from the Argentine tax.

New York Cotton.
New York, Jan. 11. 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.

"Improvement is the key-word in the
trade situation, but there 1 still a treat
deal of lrretularlty in the reports, dif
ferent industries and sections of the coun
try sending In Varying advices. , t or one
thing, wholesale distributive trade seem
to have held all the ground- gained in re

retail trade is rather quieter, mild weather
in parts of tho west being charged with
affecting sales of winter apparel.
"Perhaps the most marked improvement
is noted in advices as to gaina in manu

not uniform, nor are the reporta from the
country as a, whole uniform. Best report
as! to wholesale trado come from th big
