Chiracs Tribune-Omaha Be leased, Wire
New York, May 27. - The out'r,r?"g' nif r.e?PdeJ ",0,.e l
standing movement on today's finau
cial market was the decline of no
less than 5 cents in sterling ex
change, which touched $3.86;i and
closed at $3.87 Jii, or 124g cents un
der the high rate of exactly a week
before. This unusually violent re
action appeared to be caused by
sales from London and which again
were ascribed by Wall street to
transfer of credits from Europe to
New York in connection with Ger
many's reparations payment. It fol
lowed the very enigmatical press dis
patch in this morning's newspapers
stating that Germany was to deliver
Saturday in government drafts en
dorsed by the Berlin banks, 336.000,
000 gold marks, payable at New
York, and 504,000,000 each payable
equally at Paris and London.
No explanation appeared' in the
dispatches to what use would be
made by the reparations commis
sion, of the drafts on New York,
what provision was assumed to have
been made for the $80,000.0X) pay
ment in this market and whether the
allied government, the beneficiaries
oj the payment, would draw on New
York in turn for their own account
or leave the proceeds as credit bal
ances in America.
Would r.ffcct Rate.
It was plainly Inferred on th foreign
exchange market that the ilivjatches
meant outright transfc- !. New fork of
Uerman capital or c other European
capital aubject to muiiy's order. Such
an operation, .- icted through etchsnse
remittance- o.i so considerate scale,
would : . : ssarily move exchange rates
rapidly in favor of New Vork. Of Itself,
it would duplicate the ones familiar hroait
in sterling on occasions when London was
buying American securities.
But the puzsle of the present operation
U tht the credit balances, even If thus
transferred by Germany te New Tork,
will he needed again by Europe. In par
ticular, the French parliament's budget
of 19S1 has already appropriated for re
construction of the devastated areas, no
less than 16.000,000,000 francs, all of
which is explicitly set off against amounts
recoverable from Germany and none of
which is provided for by taxes.
Ths stock exchange, so far as it was
Influenced at all by the break In sterling,
seemed to look on it as an unfavorable
Influence which was an illustration of
the extent to which economic Ideas are
nowadays turned upstds down. Most of
the noteworthy declines occurred in the
Industrial shares and for the most part.
In thess which are usually inactive. Rall
way shares, as a rule, held firm.
N"o indication of business recovery is
presented in the week-end mercantile
trade reviews. Bradstreet's makes the
Interesting- estimate that Industry as a
whole, is working at 40 to 60 per cent
of after-war capacity.

and Industrial News of
. Chicago Grain
By CHARLES D. MICHAELS.
Chicago Tribune-Omaha Bee Leaned Wire.
Chicago, May 27.-rGrain ' prices
moved erratically ; within a good
the start and again at the lust to sell
ing pressure. Rams over a good
part of the wheat country have token
the dull edge off the market and
changed sentiment to considerable
extent. All grains had good bulges
at times, which ran into liquidating
and prorit-taking sales which carried
them off. At the close wheat was
5il!4C lower, with May leading.
Corn was 2,.jc higher for May and
je2c lower for the distant months,
while oats lost ;(g4C on the dis
tant futures and May gained .c. In
rye May gained 3c and other deliv
eries lost mlf4C.
It took little selling- pressure to
break May wheat sharply at times
and again it responded to the fair
buying. The market is losing its in
terest to all except those having
open trades and the volume of busi
ness did not exceed 1,000,000 bush
els, according to pit estimates. At
the bottom, $1.6Sa prices- were off
almost 20c from Wednesday's ton
of $1.85, with the finish at $1.65Vj(a
1.67. It was difficult to trade at
times without causing changes of 1
2c and stop order selling was re
sponsible for the break to the low
point.
Cood hhowlng tn Cora.
Corn made a good showing on buying
attributed to some of the strongest local
traders who were bullish and to covering
by shorts. Selling pressure cams largely
from cash houses hedging purchases frolu
the country, particularly from Iowa, where
offerings have increased as corn planting
is nearly completed, while the movement
from Illinois Is said to be about average.
May was hard to buy and advanced 3c
above the previous day close, holding the
greater part. July had a range of 2c
with the finish at 64o to 644C
Selling of a big line of oats tsken
Thursday on bids early today, was a fea-.
ture In the oats trading. Cash houses
were also sellers at times, while local
traders were covering shorts and bid
prices up over lc at one time, which w-as
all lost later on the distant futures, while
the May, in closing at 39 c, was within
o of the top. Rains have helped the
crop. F.levator people were buying July
and selling September at 1c difference.
Cash prices were lc higher early, but
weakened toward tbe last, with receipts
148 cars.
May rye was hard to buy and moved up
6c with a reaction of 2c. Pressure on
the distant futures were sufficient to
close them lower. There were export
sales at the seaboard, but no figures were
given.
Pit Notes.
Elevator interests took the cash wheat
mostly at May prices with some trading
towards the last at 2 under, the May
being sold as fast as the cash grain was
bought. Cash prices were unchanged 4o
7c lower in outsme marKois. wun or.
Louis leading. Export business was of
moderate volume at the gulf and while
premiums on May loading were said to
be lower, the close on distant monthB was
firmer. New wheat is being bought for
July shipment from ths country at c
under July, based on a reduction of o
for commission and 150,000 bushels have
been taken on In the last few days. Ex
port business for July and August load
ing at the gulf was of fair siie, although
no quantities were given. Receipts aro
expected to Increase In the next few
days.
Crop reports had less effect on the
market in general, although advices were
about as bad as usual, but .the removal
of the tension on May wss reflected In
fair pressure on July and local profes
sionals were free sellers, while eastern
houses were the principal buyers. July
at the top was $1.80 or 4o above the early
low, with the finish at $1.274 to $1.27.
with an easy tone.
Owing to a break lit exchange no ex
port business of consequence was done
in wheat or corn at the seaboard. It
is estimated that 150,000 bushels new
wheat has been bought to arrive at Chi
cago by July 20 at lc over July and
a fair amount of vessel room has been
chartered for late July and August to
go to Montreal. Sales were said to have
been made on the basis of 13 o over
July, f. o. b. Montreal, ror io. 3 nira
or red. France has authorized unre
stricted Imports of wheat.
Domestic shipping sales at Chicago
were 9.000 bushels wheat, 422,000 bush
els corn, including 275,000 bushels c. I. f.
Buffalo, and 160.000 bushels oats. Sales
of 6,000 bushels rye were made to go to
store. Deliveries on May contracts were
3.000 bushels wheat, 18.000 bushels corn,.
10,000 bushels oats and 21,000 bushels
f)No. 1 and No. 3 hard and red winter
wheat went to 2c under May at the last,
after selling at July price early. Ths only
demand is from elevator Interests. Re
ceipts 76 cars. Premiums at the gulf
weak at 43c over July for first half
June loading and 40c over for last half,
while August was 13Q14c over July.
