Chicago Trlbune-Omaha, Be Leaned Wire.
By ALEANDER DANA NOYES.
Xew York, Feb. 28. The re
ncwed speculative selling of some
half dozen industrial shares of to
day's stock exchange, and the de
clines which were thereby effected,'
had no particular connection with
general situation, except, insofar as
those maneuvers indicated a market
in which the real forces making for
higher or lower values were in sus
pense pending the coming week's
new developments. ,
In financial circles which give in
telligent consideration to such mat
ters, the present attitude is plain
enough. The London conference be
tween the allies and Germany, which
is now beginning, contain the possi
bility of a reassuring turn in the pos
ture of affairs. But it is only possi
bility; in general the expectation of
financial markets apparently is for
at least a partial deadlock, in which
the German delegates might avert
the threatened extension of the occu
pied area while prolonging discus
sion of terms.
Market It Deipondent.
Judgment eema to bo momentarily sus
pended in the matter of the new adminis
tration. If financial market were In a
mood of cheerful confidence on general
principles, one might safely predict that
something would be found, even In Mr.
Harding's Inaugural address next Friday,
which would servo to stimulate speculative
buying. Hut the market's present mood
is despondent, not to say pessimistic and
whether that state of mind Is warranteed
or not. Incidents are apt to take their color
from It.
A trim and resolute statement of pdr
pone regarding our home finances and our
Kuropean relations, clear enough to brush
away misinterpretation and sound enough
to remove misgiving, would unquestionably
have a happy lnfluenco on ail financial
markets. Today, however, the feeing tn
the financial community seemed to be that
the greater probability wa for an utter
ance noneommltal on the large issues, with
cosxelvably the miring of some highly
controverted questions. Until these two
uncertainties at Lindnn and Washington
are removed by knowledge f the facts,
the pause In real financial lnlatlve IB
easy to understand.
Transaction Smaller..
Today's transactions on the stock ex
change were smaller than on any full day
since February 11. The only stocks in
which thero waa even normal activity
were the few Industrial shares on which
the professional speculators converged
ther efforts. Some of these stocks broke
heavily, but without affecting to any
great extent the general market, where
the days net change were mostly unim
portant. The railway as a group held
firm. A fairly active bond market pro
duced few movements of any consequence
In prices.
During most of tha day the foreign ex
change market hardly moved, but late in
the afternoon a recovery Ret in which
brought sterling 1H cents about last weeks
closing, with smaller advances in rate on
other European markets, Including Oer
many. .,
Sharp Cotton Decline.
Not the least lnteres;!tig event of today's
markets waa the further sharp decline In
cotton, which carried th New York spot
price down more than H o nt per pound
to a price 111 cents which (compare with
14, at the end of December and with
434 at last year's high July price. This
embodies a decline of not quite 75 per
cent ni barely five months; something al
most unparalleled In the -whole list of
tumbling commodity markets, whose aver
age decline from last year's highest waa
40H per cent at the n? of January. Cot
ton is now soiling actually lower than nt
this time even in surh prewar years as
1913, 1912, 1911 or 1310. The price may
be called unwarrantably low, but It 1 so
because the southern farmers chose to hold
their cotton buck from the market on tho
bsxis of Insecure hank loans, which con
sumers knew would have to bo paid off
and many of which were called ftfr pay
ment) on this present day.

Chicago Grain
By CHARLES D. MICHEALS.
C hlrago Tribune-Omaha Bee Leased Wire.
Chicago, eb. 28. An erratic ac
tion of the grain markets was on
with a wide and lower range and a
reaction that made small net losses
for the day disappointing for those
who had ' expected a big break.
Wheat was off 34c to l4c with
March leading, corn He lower and
oats Jtfc higher, with rye finishing
unchanged to ?Bc higher and' barley
unchanged. Cotton was down to the
lowest of the year, March being
below jll cents and stocks were also
lower.1
' Between the bullish statistics,
green bugs and realizing sales by
leading holders of March wheat and
the selling of May trades there ivas
a nervous mnrket. Export business
keeps up, and 250,000 bushels were
reported sold at the seaboard. Mill
ing demand in the northwest was
fair and cash prices there held well.
Millers at Minneapolis took the
March, yet it went to 1 cent under
May at one time. Kansas Uty March
was 11 to 12 cents under Chicago.
Corn Drop Surprise.
That corn values only declined 1 cent
from Saturdays close and at one time
advanced nearly 2 cents from the low
point made early was a surprise to the
trade in general. rne eariy oreaa ac
counted the effect of the big receipts. But
as the latter . failed to reach expected
proportions, being 926 cars, and the visi
ble greatly to the surprise of all de
creased 1,343,000 bushels, there was a cov
ering movement and bettor support.
Most of the business In oat was In
buying July and selling May at 1 to
l!to difference. Shorts bought July.
Seeding operations are progressing In the
southwest and Jacksonville, 111., reported
It under way there. Cash lota sold at
fair discount.
An v export bid for rye of 22o over
Chicago May with offers at 28c over
was the nearest to cash business In thla
grain, A few eastern order were here
for July while May was neglected. Stocks
are decreasing.
Pit Note.
Export aales of cash wheat at the sea
board were reported at 250,000 bushels
with 20,000 barrel flour. There were in
quiries In the market for two cargoes
flour close to a working basis, but details
were not given. Bids for the gulf were
on the basis of 14 cent over March, or
the same as waa bid by exporter for
No. 1 hard, track Texas City for 20-day
shipment from the country.
Domestic shipping sales at Chicago
were 10,000 bushels wheat, 100,000 bush
els corn and 40,000 bushels oats. There
was also 605,000 bushels corn sold to the
seaboard for export.
Premium on cash wheat , showed little
change with red winter I213c over
March for the No. 1 and 1012c
over for the No. 2. No. 1 hard was 67o
over, and dark No. 1 northern 612c over.
Receipts. 76 cars. Including 18 car No. 1
or No. 2 rod.1 ;
Outside Wheat Kasler.
Outsido cash wheat markets were a little
easier with St. Louis and Omaha lc
higher to lc lower and Kansas City un
changed to 2o lower. Minneapolis was
unchanged.
The arrival of a few cars of wheat
from Kansas City and the buying of 160,
000 bushels there t( go to tor,- also the
purchase of 50.000 bushels here to go to
store were the basis for the late selling
and decline of over lc.
The visible supply of wheat decreased
697,000 bushels last week, while last year
the decrease was. 2,521,000 bushels.
At. the extreme Match wheat sold at
$1.66 and $1.69 with the finish, at
$1.66 to $1.66. May at $1.54$1.59
and finished at $1.66 to $1.68. The
movement continues In excess of last year
and export clearances liberal.

New York Cotton.
New York, Feb. 28. Still lower price
levels were reached in the cotton mar
ket this morning, owing of a continuation
of last week's selling movement, which
was evidently stimulated by the weak
ness of Liverpool, unfavorable reports
from Egypt and British trade depression.
The opening was easy at a decline of
21 to 50 points, with March selling off
to 11.10c, May to 11.62c and July to
12.02c, or about 40 to 43 points net
lower on the active positions.
After the close of Liverpool there was
less selling pressure and prices showed
rallies of 10 or 15 points from the lowest
around midday, although the tone was
unsettled. '
It is expected that there will be large
tenders of March contracts to Liverpool
Tuesday, and March liquidation is be
lieved to have been largely responsible
for recent liquidation there.

"Doc" Kent Expects to
Profit by "Advertising"
In "Wells Babies" Case
"Dr." H. S. Kent will probably
re-enter the candy business, he an
nounced yesterday. At present he
is scouting about for a suitable loca
tion to reopen, he said.
With the "advertising" that he re
ceived previous to his acquittal a
month ago after his second trial for
the alleged attempt to murder of the
"Wells babies," he believes that
business will be great.
Dr. Kent denies that he proposes
to marry Miss Louise Hoeke, al
leged mother of the twins, stating
that he had met her only one since,
the trial.
The twins. Betty and Jimmy
Wells, are still at the Methodist hos
pital, to which they were taken after
being rescued. They are in custody
of the Nebraska Children's Home
society.
