280 Madison Ave. New York City
By CHARLES D. MICHAELS.
Chicago Tribune-Omaha Bee Ieaed Wire.
Chicago, March 26. H i g h e st
prices were made for, all grains m
the early trading, with a collapse at
the last.
Local operators provided for their
ciminitnients on the short side
early and the selling movement that
came later carried prices down, mak
ing a tame finish, with net losses
on May wheat of 3-4c, while March
was tight and showed a net advance
of 3-4c. Losses on corn were l-8c
to 3-8c; oats were l-8c higher to 3-8c
lower, the latter on September; rye
was off 3-8 to lc, and barley l-4c
In provisions there were losses of
2 l-2c on lard, Sc on ribs and 27 1-2
on pork. ' .
Action of the grain markets
throughout the week reflected the
light speculative support and a de
cline to the lowest of the season.
Net losses, however, were light, con-
I sidering the bearishness that pre
vailed, May wheat being on 1 i-ec,
while March gained 1 1-2. Corn
showed losses of 2 l-23c, oats 1-2
lc higher, rye 1-2 to-2 1-2, barley
1 l-3c, pork l-A iara j i-it
l-2c and ribs 2530c lower.
Flour Exports Heavy.
Buying of wheat against export sales
was the basis for an advance of 23c,
after an early dip. There was also siild
t bo a lot of flour sold for export. Trad
ers generally covered and for a time sent.
tuent favored the buying aide, but after
the top was reached buying subsided, and
vlth increased offerings, prices receded
nnd clostd wltn the early bulge lost, tha
last sales being nt almost the Inside.
slde from the export news .there was
r.othlng In the j?iieral situation that was
lulllsh. The green bug scare Is said to
have worn Itself out in the southwest. A
crop expert from Texs says there Is little
dairaca there-after 60 daya of activity
on the part of the bugs. There were rains
I'l rarts of the west and at the mme tune
Hutchinson, Kan., messages reported a 60
rn'io an hour dust storm.
Unliveries we'e .12.000 bushels.
March whent was hard to buy. Flvo
bir local shorts who sold it around
tc over May a lew days ago covered at
H13o over. . .
Corn Reflects Wheat.
Action of tho corn market was a
flection of wheat, on a reduced scale.
Country offerl.igs were light and lower
arades sold at rid-n ed discounts. The In
(Juetrlea and e::ojvters wye out of the
niAtket. but the domestic demand wtis
better. March deliveries were 6,000
litiKhelu.
Oats were bought largely by shorts, the
locale coming In with one big Una covered
while the selling was scattered. Prices
were up c at me extreme, which was all
iost later, although the close was at a
fractional advance irn May.
Rve was bo'iunt by spreaders and sea
board exporters, who took May. while the
locals sold July. Cash lots were 27c over
Chicago May, track Baltimore, and 16c
over c. I. f. Buffalo, shipment at the open
ing of navigation.
A small trade was on in provisions, wnn
a narrow and lower range of prlcea ana
nothing striking in the news. Hog prices
wsre easier and the cash trade was light,
with the exception of a demand for com
pound lard for export, Fine close was ai
tho bottom.
l'lt Aotea.
The wheat trade Is looking forward to
the opening of transactions In July wheat
on Monday. General expectations are that
It Will be around $1.20tor about 20c under
the May delivery. This would be 2c a
pound, or about the same price as rye,
which is selling on the same basis.
While sentiment early was favorable for
a good rally, at the close it was bearish
on all grains and the belief that sales hud
been made on all bulges was prevalent in
nearly all - quarters. There has been a
good evening up and liberal putting out
of new lines. It was said that the break
In wheat started on selling by seaboard
exporters who had prepared for the Greek
order of 1,250,000 bushols, which was
taken by Dreyfus at a price said to be
3c under the market. This induced sell
ing by local traders and was a factor in
the late decline,
"I cannot see the logic in selling May
wheat at- 13c under March on a break in
the premium of Cc in red wheat over
March," said 'a local trader. "It would
be all right to sell March, but why sell
the 'May at such a discount."
Winnipeg men who were here yesterday
talked bearish on grains. They said they
saw no Indication of farmers selling the
22,000.000 bushels of wheat they own at
Fort William and Port Arthur. As to the
movement of Canadian oats, an oat spe
cialist from there said there was very
little demand and that despite the fact
that the high freight rates give farmers

By ALEXANDER DANA NOYES,
Chicago Tribune-Omaha Bee leased Wire,
New York, March 26. Interest of
the financial markets was chiefly di
rected today, to the reserve bank
statements and of these the weekly
showing of the New York bank was
very striking. A rise of 4 1-2 per
cent in that institution's ratio of re
serve to deposit and note liabilities
brought the percentage to much the
highest figure touched since June of
1919, and, in fact, to a higher figure
than that of the weeks immediately
following the armistice.
This notable improvement of the
New York reserve position occurred
curiously enough, as a result of
practically all favorable influences
acting simultaneously. Rediscounts
were reduced . $41,000,000 last week
and they are now. $133,000,000 less
than they were a year ago.
Notes Cut Down.
Notes In circulation were cut down
$3,100,000 and the combination of large
receipts of imported gold with $24,000,000
addition to the New York banks credit
In the reserve system's central gold fund
(a result of repayments by Interior re
serve banks) brought the New York Insti
tution's gold reserve no less than $78,400,
000 above that of the preceding week end.
Notwithstanding the half holiday com
ing between two full stock exchange hojl
days. today's stock market was reason
ably active. Its transactions running to
more than one-half of those of Thursday.
Changes In prices for the day were generally-
upward, with numerous advances
of 1 to 6 points In the industrial groups
and with the railways' shares generally
closing a fraction better. The usual tac
tics of concentrated professional selling
of three or four Industrial shares were
pursued again, and In these cases, de
clines of 1 to 4 points were effected. But
even these stocks closed considerably
above the lowest and the effect of their
movement on the rest of the market wad
not great.
Advances Outnumber Declines.
When today's closing prices are com
pared with those at the end of the pre-
