( lilcugo Trlliune-Onmlia Be Leased Wire. New York, May 31. Resuming business after their virtual three days holiday, the movement of the finan cial markets was curiously confused and the action of one seemed to have little relation with that of the other. Trices of stocks declined aKaiu, i though with great irregularity. Call money again went to 71 2. I he Liberty 3j per cent bonds fell to the lowest price of their history. Wheat for May delivery rose 22 cents per bushel on the last dav for performance of the contract. With the first installment of 1,000,000,000 gold marks out of the total indemnity of 132,000,000,000 made by the Ger man ambassador at Paris today, and with the program for conversion of this payment into American credits still left in much obscuritv. financial interested centered in the question now tar that transfer ot balances had already been effected, and in the consequent course of foreign ex change. There was reason for believing that the part of this initial payment, 150,000,000 marks, which was made last week in the shape of bills of exchange, had been turned into credit balances at New York by the opening of business today and was lodged with the federal reserve bank. Part of the New York credit had vl. dently been accumulated by Germany be fore the heavy sales began last week In Wall street. The rest of the transfer must have been effected in thn later days of Inst week, when sterling rates fell from $3,9713 to $3.86 Vs. ending the week at Mrrllng J.xchange Drops. Although the Wall street foreign ex change markets was closed on Monday, the cables report that a further decline In sterling to $3.85 occurred at London the lowest rate since February 19 and iHO in tne pound below the years high level of May 19. Proaumahlv tha decline of Monday reflected speculative foreign Transactions not oasea on lull Inrormation for sterling opened today in New York at $3.86 and rose during the day to $3.89 or nearly lc above last week's closing. Recovery occurred also in French. Belgian and Italian rates, though with smaller scope. The stock exchange was not Influenced by the foreign exchange fluctuation. -Its attention again seemed to be limited to the dividend reductions or dividend omis sions on industrial shares. Railway shares moved somewhat Irreg ularly, but In the main held reasonably firm with a show of strength in the earlier trading. But they were dealt in lightly, which was natural when the for mal announcement of the labor board's decision as to the scope of the railway wage cut will be made tomorrow. he hi 19 604 7 60 ' 7... 14 949 8 00 , 9.. 67 703 8 2S 14.. 9 731 8 60 YEARLINGS. 25......

MICHAELS. Chicago Trlbtuie-Omaha Bee I.enscd Wire. Chicago, May SI. May wheat closed at the best price of the season, with shorts frantically bidding for the wheat. The close, $1.87, was l'jC higher than the finish Satur day. Cash houses continued to pour wheat into the pit all day against cash wheat bought on the bulge, but this failed to relieve the congestion. July wheat weakened later in the session and resting spots were 'iC higher. Corn was ic higher to fgc lower, while oats were IJ4C higher to He lower, the advances being on the May. Ilye was l'43)ic higher and barley, l3c lower. Pork fin- ished SS(a!95c off. lard, 12lSc off and ribs, lZ'Ac lower. Local cash sales were 31,000 bush els of corn and 30,0 bushels of oats. Shippers claimed that the only place they could sell grain was in the pit. There were no export bids for corn, owing to unfavorable ex change rates. Seaboard reported 1,000,000 bushels of wheat marked for export, mainly to Germany, for late June shipment, also 250,000 bushels of corn. Cash handlers ex pect wheat to start at about 2530c over July price tomorrow. If this premium should be realized it will be about 2 per cent off from the close of today, figuring on a theo retical close of $1.85 at 2c under May, at which price all cash wheat sold today. Cash corn and oats closed J4c lower. Receipts Not Large. May wheat furnished some excitement at the opening, but the exhibition of pyrotechnics fizzled out almost immediate ly after the start. The established re ceipts were for only 450 cars, somewhat less tnan expected, while deliveries or 117,000 bushels before the opening served to increase rathen than relieve the repre sentation of outstanding shorts. There were odds to buy at the start and $1.83 was paid before all of the orders were filed, amounting to about 60,000 bushels. After that price had been established scattering trades were closed at slight variations In prices. . There appeared to be some congestion in the July at the opening. Commission houses bought, while offerings wero light, considerable wheat having been taken out of the pit an Saturday. Offerings above $1.30 were ample, but below that figure the market appeared to be getting sup port. The pit trade talked of good ex port business over tho holiday, owing to the number of "give-ups" of futures in the pit by export houses. Seaboard In terests, however, failed to confirm uny new business. Intimating that foreign buyers are holding off until after May Is out of the way, believing present values inflated. Strong I ndertone In Corn. There was a strong undertone to the corn market at the start, and good com mission house buying in evidence, while offerings ware light. There was a change in sentiment to the bull side. The theory Is that a demand generally springs up when the run is heaviest and this theory was said to apply today with re ceipts of 1.750 cars estimated. There was a slow cash demand tor corn, eastern buyers being imbued with the idea that they will be able to buy cheaper after May contracts have been closed out. Oats were traded in at higher levels. There was little outside interest displayed in the market and prices were affected largely by the action in other grains. Commission houses were good buyers early, but sold on the bulge later In the Session. Receipts were heavy, the esti mate placed at . 350 cars, comprising a three-day run. The cash market basis was unchanged at tho starl, but later ruled c lower. Shipping demand from all distributing points was dull, buyers generally awaiting the expiration of May in the hope that purchases couiil be made at a better level thereaftr. A boat is to be loaded out this evening containing 350,000 bushels of oats, the destination being Buffalo. Rye was linn, cash No. 2 selling at $1.641.67 and No. 8 at $1.42 01.43. De liveries on May contracts were 25,000 bushels. Pit Notes. With the explratloo of the May wheat future, sentiment was a good deal mixed in reference to the July, but a number of commission houses showed a leaning to the bear side on the theory that croo damage news had been discounted and that short sellers would be more positive In their views than they have been. Wheat cutting has started In the southwest, so that the crop situation has less sentiment than it had when the May was shooting skyward about every other day. In Ok lahoma it Is claimed that the crop out look has Improved and the rains in Kan sas since the worst reports were received have probably caused some Improvement In that quarter. In the soft wheat sec tion the general view of the crop Is favor able. The weekly Indiana crop report says corn Is all planted and some being worked a second time, with the stand good. Acreage practically the same as last year. Showers have improved oats during the week, and the acreage is little changed from last year. Wheat condition is vari able, some districts excellent and others poor. Cutting will begin in the southern part of the state In about two weeks. "Wheat looks fine all through the big wheat-raising counties of Ohio. Indiana and southern Illinois," said John F. Bar rett, who made his usual Decoration day trip from Chicago through Indiana, south ern Ohio and southern Illinois. "In the real wheat raising sections 1 never saw wheat look better than this year."

Write, or a.fc for a Red Croun Road Map Why gasoline quality is the determining factor You can't see whether the gasoline comes into your cylinders as a fine mist or as a heavy spray. Yet that is the thing which largely determines the power and mileage you get from gasoline. The nature of the gasoline spray governs these things the power of the explosion, the completeness of combustion, the amount of gasoline for each piston stroke and the speed with which carbon will collect and the lubricating oil become diluted. Unless your gasoline vaporizes readily in all weathers, and unless it is uniform, you cannot adjust your needle valve to give maximum power and at the same time maximum economy. Use Red Crown Gasoline which meets all U. S. Government specifications Complete and uniform vaporization, and a series of boiling point fractions which insure quick ignition and complete combustion these are the characteristics of good gasoline, straight distilled gasoline. The Red Crown Gasoline you can buy everywhere is this su perior quality gasoline. It meets the standards re quired by the United States Government for motor gasoline. Look for the Red Crown Service Station The prompt, courteous service Red Crown Service Stations afford and the dependable gasoline and motor oils they sell add to the convenience, pleasure and economy of motoring. Drive in where you see the sign of the Red Crown where the little, but appreciated, courtesies such as free air for a soft tire, water for a hot radiator and road information and directions are cheerfully given.
