MICHAELS. Chicago Trlbun-Omh Be Leased Wlr. Chicago, May 20. A bull market was on in wheat, with crop news the leading (actor. Trade has broadened and prices are the highest in" more than a month, with the close around the top,, wheat gaining i'iyjr, with May leading, touching $1.60. Coarse grains were influenced by the strength in wheat and while corn lost ?((t?iic, oats were up UJ.C rye, 2S,5c, the latter on May, and barley gained 1 cent. Traders who were bearish and short a few days ago are now bullish and long on wheat. They have lost sight of the economic and legislative conditions for the time being. Bad crop news from the southwest dominated the wheat trade. There was more of that than any day this season and the showing on the whole was less favonable. All the experts out sent rather doleful reports. The Modern Miller said the crop is los ing ground steadily. Goodjnan gave a comprehensive view of the situation and said there was nothing in the re ports so far to suggest that the con dition of the crop had declined more than 4 points or about an average. Short Hating Trouble. Seaboard exporters have control of th May which la congested, and have taken the aurplua ot th July out nf the pit. Tha market la ahowing tha effect of thla recent buying. So Ions a this situation exists the shorts are In bad. The latter were activ buyer, partcularly towards the last. The country offered corn freely slightly above the market. Consignment nutlcea wera mor numerous but aalcs tn firm were not ao large aa several days past. Corn traders on the whole are luo rad ically bearish, desplts 1 is prospects for an increased mov i, for values to continue to decln- i lue fare of a strong and advani in- : iiet. Cash houses were good acll"" lo hedge country purchasers, while f':i;. and a feu Io.hI bulls wero the b era. CisH prices were 'e lower, with shipping rales 140.000 bushels and re oetpt 398 cars. Inside pricea were more than lc under tha previous day'a rlof, which as partly Recovered later, but the close was lower. A comparatively small market was on in oats considering the advance in wheat. Cash houses and shorts did the selling while AVairncr was the buyer. Prices ad vanced and closed at nearly tha top, show ing around lc above the early low point. There waa nothing alarming In the crop reports from th big producing sections. Shipping sales were 176.000 bushels with sample values unchanged. Receipts, 114 cars; deliveries. 60,000 bushels. Rye was bought by seaboard exporter and shorts. The advance In wheat was -the real faptor. The cloa waa around the top with. May 1.48. Tit oiee. The upturn in wheat this week hae surprised even its best friends, as prices have advanced so rapidly that It was not regarded aa possible to have such a strong market with an inoreaaed trade under extating condition. That th mar-v ket had been heavily oversold la shown by its aetion of lata. How long it will be before it becomes overbought a question. Crop news from the southwest has been the basis for the advance, while the over sold condition of the market has made the advance more easily attained. In advancing 20o for May and 12c for July from the. low point of last Saturday, the wheat market has accomplished what the trad thought was impossible. A report from Springfield, II!., saya farmera ar willing to contract for their new crop of wheat at 31 and Kansas City messages claimed that 1,000,000 bushel might hav bean bought at $1 for the new crop. Thla shows the changed atti tude of the farmers, who a year ago re fused to U at 32.60 whan th demand waa good. Old wheat la hard to gat to fill aales for this month' loading, aa well a, for th delivery, on May aales. ' LeCount wired from Salina, Kan.: "From Great Bend east to McPherson some field fair, other very poor. About 60 per cent of th plant is small and alckly. In thia section some of the plant in Bam tat but condition are mor promising. ' Some fields heading. Crop through, tb-i territory is about an aVBRr. Snow wired from MoPheraon, Kan.: "Good ehower today through Ford, Edward and Pawn counttea. Shower needed. Weather condition cool nd fa vor.hlo Considerable burned through Ford. Propecti in Edwards.

( Financial By ALEXANER DANA NOYES. Chicago Tribune-Omaha Be leased W ire. New York, May 20. After several days in which occurrences of large significance for the longer future had lield the attention of financial mar kets, today passed unconventionally, the markets returning to considera tion of iinm;diate conditions. That these conditions are not altogether agreeable, the postponement of the Chesapeake and Ohio railway 2 per cent semi-annual dividend showed, and that announcement was-followed by a generl decline in railway shares and weakness also in the industrials. The dividend problem of the rail roads is necessarily bound up with the fact that the transition period, rven after a fair readjustment of working costs, must be more or less prolonged. Foreign exchange went slightly lower today, with sterling down 1 cent: the market pursuing the course which has lately become familiar, of losing part of the advance after each successive upward movement then rising again to a higher level than be fore. Tendency Upward. Th reactions aeom to represent the paus wheh naturally comes whil trad htlle, whose al had been deferred while rate vers rising, are being absorbed by a market whose tendency is, atlll upward. Fractional advance in open market dis count rates at London was an incident of the dav. Wheat prices scored a further strikinB advance and contracts for May delivery touched $1.60 per bushel, a rise of 7c for the day and 40Hc alnce April, while July contracts sold S3c above the. season's low price of $l.om. Wheat exports for the week and for the month to date have nearlv doubled those of the correspond- : Insr nerlod of 1920. It is not Inconceivable that the aupply and demani position, which was ao smasingly misjudged by the grain speculators and grain trade experts when the price guarantee expired last aummer. will turn out to have been again misjudged this past season in the opposite direction. In th week-end mercantile trade re views one' finds the same evidence of a pause, of a situation which as a whole is growing neither worse nor better, as has been indicated both In the business reporta and in the movement of stock exchange pricea during the eveff or eight If a continuous foreward movement has not started, at least the continuous down ward movement appears to have been arrested. Dun'a Review observes that this is the 64th consecutive week tn which declines of prices of commodities havs outnumbered advances. Bradstreet'a points out as one sign of promise that the country's expenditure for building construction in April' turn out to have been not only 19t per cent greater than in March, nearly 160 per cent above January-and the largest since April, 1920. but actually represents the fifth larseat outlay of any month on rec ord. Boston Wool, Boston, May 20.

There was a further decline in the cotton market during to day's earlv tradinff. The favorable weather reported tn the aouth wa considered responsible for most of the selling and the early feature wa bought several days ago. There was also further liquidation of July, partly against nurchases in later months, and alter open ing 2 to 10 points lower, activ positions sold 8 to 14 points below Tnursday s close, with July touching 12.62c and October 13.I5C. Ten Mar notices were reported, but May held relatively steady on buying by epot houses. Owing to the holiday, there were no Liverpool cables. ( The early liquidation was followed by scattered covering and th late torenoon market was steadier. The feature wa some covering by May shorts, who ran the orice un to 12.20c. or 2 points net higher and within 40 points of July, which was the smallest diiterenca since tne nrst notice day. Otherwise there was no spe cial point of Intorest and the market was quiet, wun active monuis rutins m wr points below Thursday's closing. Don's Trade Bovlew, New York, May 20. Dun's tomorrow will say: "With no general departure from the policy of restricted buying, a full re flection of the factors making for better business Is still lacking. Confidence In the future, although increasing, does not lead to vigorous action, most Interests awaiting an extension of the Industrial readjustments and a further lessening of price uncertainties. The movement to ward more settled market is well de fined in some channels where mor than a year of deflation has brought relatively low prices, but stability is yet to b at tained In various quarters, and important commitments are being deferred wherever possible. Despite the various unsatisfac tory features, however, there is more basis for encouragement in the general outlook. The eaalng of monetary tenaion as dis closed by the reduction of . discount rates st several leading centera marks a con structive development' and a modification of th depression in foreign exchange rates is also helpful."
