Market, Financial and Industrial News of the Day Financial be Cttiork Sinus. By ALEXANDER DANA NOYES. Chicago Tribune-Omaha Bee Leased Wire. New York, April 25. In wliat was practically the third successive "mil lion share day" for the transactions of half a million in two hours which placed Saturday in that class todays stock market continued the advance which began with Germany's note to Washington. The pace of Recovery slackened somewhat as compared with the two preceding business days: prices did not close at the days highest, and the railway stocks hung back. But in the active in dustrjal shares, numerous advances occurred of 2 to 4 points; there was plain evidence that the widely ex tended "bear" interest was continuing its retreat. In some parts of the bond market also there were signs of strength and sterling exchange went above the previous high rate of 3.94 1-2. The investment market f lho past, few days has manifestly been reflecting both visible occurrences and the appearance of certain tendencies, which, while their re sult is still uncertain, contain the possi bility of highly Important events. What lias actually happened is a perceptible slackening of tho fall In commodity prices Dun's long Hat contained last week as many advances as declines a still more rapid Increase in our gold re serves, and soma faint but suggestive signs of improving business. The decrease In Idle freight cars, for the first time in a number of weeks, is one indleatlon of a change; the considerable Increase of or ders in two or three Industries, whose reaction began comparatively early, is another. . On the flnauclal Bide, these slow and hesitant signs of at least a halt in the movement of depression seem to have made les impression than the suggestion of a chance of settling the German repa rations deadlock, which has paralyzed Europe both politically and economically, and the more obscure indications that an effort will be made, at Washington and elsewhere, to straighten out the compli cations of the railways. It is easily pos sible to take too much for st ranted in either matter. But the mere fact that to assumo the worst results In either would be to imagine' an impossible situation irives reasonable ground for conservative hopefulness. Tho stock exchange has rec ognized all these considerations; perhaps the more readily because both the repa rations matter and the railway matter are at least to have some new light thrown on them-within the next two or three weeks. Sterling at $3.95 sold above the year's .previous high rate of $8.944 and, al though the day's early strength in the European exchanges was not maintained, the rate on Holland reached the highest figure of the year and Italian exchange was for a time close to its best.

A hopeful facling1 as to prospects for a settlement of wsr reparations and the British coal strike, combined with more facorable reports from the cotton goods trade, the firmness of foreign exchange, and reports of a cheerful tone in Wall Street promoted an advance in the cotton market today. The opening was steady at a decline of one point to an advance of 1 point with active months selling some 7 to 12 points net higher after the call on Wall Street and local buying.. Liverpool and the south sold, however, checking the advance around $12.73 for July and $13.37 for October, and later fluctuations were ir regular. . Reports that a canvass of southern bankers pointed to a reduction of S2.4 per cent In acreage, contributed to ths early advance. There was also scattered buying on unsettled weather conditions in the south, with July contracts selling up to $12.75, or about 12 points net higher. Commission house business was a little more active on this advance, but there was continued southern selling, and the mar ket eased off later under realizing. New York Coffee. Xew York. April 26.

Extreme weak ness developed in the wheat market during the last half of the session. There was much prcsssurc brought to bear against the May by cash in terests. This selling was based on the l2c decline in cash wheat premiums and heavier offerings of wheat reported in the country from the southwest. July sympathized partially with . the May. Resting spots were 2.5c lower. Corn fin ished lji2c off and oats were l 5c lower. Corn finished l.JJ2c off and oats were 1 J41J-jc lower. Rye declined 3j4c. There was very little trade in the wheat market. Wire service was inter rupted by the western storms and this made business almost entirely local. T'.ie price trend was downward. There was selling by houses who were Identified with the Ion- side of the market, while locals sold because of the sharp break In Win nipeg. An eastern house bought Msy early. Aside from the Winnipeg stump, the news was favorable to the construc tive side of the market. Exporters so licited offers of wheat in this country. Unsettled and much colder weather was forecast, with high winds and heavy snowfall reported in the west. The for eign situation was more bullish. The Germans were more disposed 1o settle the reparation squabble by meeting the silted terms, while labor troubles threaten shipping from Argentina's ports. Cora Supported on Break. Corn eased off a fraction, but ensoun tered support on the break. There was further buying of May by cash houses, which suggested further purchase of cash corn by exporters. Soiling was based mainly on the break In wheat. Exporters were after cash corn early In tho dav. not making any outright bids, "but they were asking local shippers to submit of fers. Weather is unfavorable and corn planting is being delayed. It was a quiet affair In oats. Prices averaged lower in sympathy with the de clines recorded in wheat and corn. Com mission houses sold a little for outsldo account and there was a light scattered demand in evidence. There was a bettor shipping Inquiry reported In local circles and Decatur. 111., advices stated that the south was after oats there and farmers were inclined to meet this demand oc casionally. Rve was easier. Cash No. 2 sold at $1.31 01.32. Receipts were 8 cars. Pit N'oies. A probe by the federal commission into every aspect of the Canadian grain trade will open at Winnipeg tomorrow. J. W. T. Duval, expert advisor to the United States Eraln standards board, em ployed here during the war. will give ex pert evidence to the commission. Alleged artificial spread of grains by which farmers suffer, also activity of the United States Grain Growers as a factor in con trolling certain aspects of the trade will be investigated. Grain exchanges. North west Grain Dealers," association. Lake Shippers' association and elevator com panies also will be probed. Mills will be required to submit a record covering the past 10 days, showing percentages of all grades of wheat used in the milling process. Charges ir being made that tho commission has designed to discredit a grain society with counter charges that it lias been projected by producing inter ests to discredit exchange, elevator and milling interests. Amarillo, Tex., wired: "Past week was bard on wheat; the last three daya have been windy and wheat has deteriorated rapidly. Early wheat damaged badly." Receipts of Wheat. Receipts of wheat were: Duluth, 53 cars; Winnipeg. 99 cars. W. F. Murphy of Farnum Winter &, Co. had the following from Minneapolis: "Understand from an official of the Great Northern railroad that there it still about 29,000,000 bushels left-over wheat to come in on the Great Northern alone." Illinois weekly crop: Farm work mano slow progress during the week growth of winter wheat was retarded by the freeze and the crop has deteriorated same In southern counties; condition on the whole' is still high. Michael Cudahy of Milwaukee was on the floor today. He was inclined to be optimistic over the future in the pro vision trade. He said that export trade is Improving, the French, displaying a lit tle more Interest. He also looks for a good British trade to develop, but at the present labor conditions are against them. Emporia, Kan., wired: "Contrary to some reports put out there are buying big lot cash wheat In country and offerings increasing.
