THE MONEY MARKET
SUNDAY. April o0-P. VI.

v
70 bibor ,oIrcs FOR orroi, Is = measure of public
gain. then last week should be looked upon AZ ,n'
turning point in the tide of commercial affairs.
The improvement in prices ut Chicago (Which i tne
leading market amounts to / cents for wheat ana
corn and 10 cent for oats. This establishes an
advance for wheat Of 7ls cents from the lowest
figure of twelve days ago. il Is therefore iIhpor-
topt to inquire whether the causes for the advance
have been legitimate or speculative, ana whether
the advance possesses the character of permanent
cv or not 1t Is claimed by Chicago holders OF
wheat that the low price has stimulated
an EXPORT demand; that the grain Is 60
ing out of Chicago rapidly; that the stock IN
si-ht is decreasing 600 600 bushels per week ana
finally there was attempt 10 get mp small scare
on reports of the poor condition OF the winter crop
IN few isolated districts. II is now known th't
the exports of wheat from the Atlantic ports III the
week ending April - the week in which wheat
sold in Chicago at - cents were l.212,-
sol bushels against 5O3.3S> oushe-7
for the preceding week. What they
were for last week is not yet known but If rates
for ocean freights. which again are lower, are
criterion the movement at least from this port was
smaller. The foreign prices have responded only
fractlonallv to our advances. 1t has been SHOWN
that the movement eastward was stimulated Is
much by the low rates for frelghts az by the de-
clue in price if not more 1t IS time for the SOCKS
TO begin 10 show decrease even without an export
movement no one supposed were going INTO
the new crop with our elevators so flied with the
old crop that the new could not be moved; but II
seems probable that the unusually large amount IN
transit has embarrassed the stausticians who
make mp the records. For instance the shipments
from Western points in the week ended April II
were ,934 go bushels Of wheat, yet the account
