were selling to take their profits
This was notable IN the case of the Bal
timore & Ohio preferred, which was
pushed up alone till nearly three points
above last night. While the preferred
was thus rising, heavy selling continued
in the common stock
All of the stocks which have been heav-
lily bought In the last few days were
most largely sold today. Selling orders
came not only from the board room trad
ers, but from outside sources. London
bought slightly OF some stocks, but the
balance of transactions on that account
was on the side sales. This had q decided
sentimental influence on speculation, as
great hopes were aroused by London's
active buying yesterday that sustained
support would be accorded to the market
from that source. al.l
There was nothing in the news Of the
day to afford clear explanation of the
weakness in the market beyond the nat
ural desire to take profitssorr yesterday s.
very considerable rise
The local fractions stock showed spec
ulative weakness and were something af
a drag on the market, as was Sugar. The
local fractions were sold on renewed ap-
prehension that heavy tax would be
levied under the new franchise tax law
A sudden squirt to 1914 by Metropolitan,
utes, caused rallies in this group and had
a steadying effect on the whole market,
which was tending .downWards up to that
time.
The weakness in Sugar was due to the
explicit announcement that recent nego-
tiations for a compromise of the trade
war had been abandoned The iron and
steel stocks continued dull and rather
heavy on account of the machinists'
strike.
There was some apprehension early In
the day that the rate for loans to carry
over until Monday would cause a pinch
in call the money market, but this fear
proved groundless. Money continued In
good supply up to the close.
The cash conditions for the week on
various accounts as estimated so nearly
balance that the fate of the surplus re-
serves will depend upon the changes In
the loan account The subtreasury has
commenced to disburse the premium on
government bonds deposited for CONVEX
sion into the new Is, and, as a conse-
quence the losses by the banks for the
week on subtreasury operations are re-
duced to 81, 1877 coo, and this is almost Off
set by receipts Of gold from Canada and
other points. The shipments to the inte-
rior are almost offset by the receipts.
The proft-taking in governments has
tended to the reduction of loans of the
banks, but the renewed activity on the
stock market has created demand for
new loans. The action Of the money mar
ket indicates that the banks are we'll
within their limit of legal reserves.

CHICAGO, March 23.-The wheat mar
ket today was easily depressed by the en-
ormous Argentine shipments, but reacted
later on the big cash business and sym
pathy with corn rally closing firm, May
1sc under yesterday. May corn closed &c
improved and May oats shade up. Pro-
visions were strong and active, lending
more or less support to the grain pits.
May pork closed 171202Gc higher, and May
lard and May ribs each 10c improved
May wheat opened 19c under yesterday
at 651a@65Ac depressed by lower cables
and the record breaking size of Argentine
shipments. The cash business done yes
terday, 800 coo bu during today's session
was increased to 100000 bu and this fact,
together with the corn and provision
strength and the moderate receipts
caused rally which carried May to 655sc.
The close was firm, May &c under yes
terday at 65126l655sc. Trade during the
greater part of the session was rather
quiet. New York reported 46 loads taken
for export. Clearances were 100000 bu,
all of it in flour. Primary receipts were
600 bu, compared with 479. 900 last year.
Minneapolis and Duluth reported 4S0 cars,
against 4S2 last week and 1872 year ago.
Local receipts were % cars none Of con-
tract grade.
Corn market, after a period Of depres-
sion, turned strong. The heaVineSS Of
wheat was felt early but later covering
by shorts caused sharp reaction. Gables
were higher, country offerings light and
the provisions strength was felt. Local
receipts were 473 cars. Trade was rather
quiet and the cash business about 900.
Buying by interest which have recently
been supposed to be taking profits in
augurated the sharp rally which stopped
only with the end Of the session. May
ranged from 6$4q3G7sc and closed 7sc up
at S7sl@377sc.
The trade in oats was small and such
hrmneSS as the market showed in SYM
pathy with corn. Some May were sold
early, but 1t was taken back when corn
began to rise. Local receipts We're 224
cars. May ranged at 23B@24c. and closed
a shade improved at 24Q241sc. The pro-
vision market was strong and generally
active lending some Of its strength to the
grain markets. Receipts of hogs under
the estimate. higher prices at the yards,
better cables and a sharp general cash
demand, together with covering by shorts,
were Influenced; The small stocks also
contributed ig to the support, being in con-
from $11:7CQ11:S9 and closed 171!ga2Oc. over
yesterday at $11.S0; May lard from $6.171s
@6.271a, closing 10c up at $625@6.271A, and
May ribs from $6.25@6.2714 TO $685., with
the close 10c improved at $6.321206.35.

CATTLE-Receipts of cattle have been a
little light this week; and there has been
an especial shortage in good butcher
steers The bulk of the steer stuff that
has been coming in has been only fair
and half fat. The fat cow stuff has been
fair to choice in quality, selling from 3d.
to $40, with the bulk of the good cows
going at $3.50 to s3.S5. In some instances
prices have been little stronger than
last week. In the stock cattle alleys
everything showing quality has found a
ready sale. Prices have held about steady
on all kinds, except steer calves, which
sold quite little lower than last week
until today, when orders sent the quota
lions back to the high time of last week.
Orders have been In this week for thin

fair sale at slightly better prices than
