FINANCIAL GOSSIP

/. {. Sy : 3 .
IS Charles E. Lewis from New York: While
business conditions continue satisfactory and
railroads show no dilninution of earnings while
monetary conditions are expected to soon i'm
prove and our export trade promises returns
in excess of reports of several months past; it
may seem logical, that a recovery should take
place In our markets; still, on the other hand,
the large demands for money by corporate In
terests and the vast amount of undigested securi-
ties for sale the demands of labor upon cap
ital. as well as the total absence of public ir-
terest should not be lost sight Of. and should
be mediums for keen consideration before one
makes makes commitments naI e on the long side The
I to become interesting S Without attaching toe
much Importance to this incident, 1t may be pru
dent, perhaps. to give more than ordinary no
tice to- the various rnmors concerning, this con.
test as It is likely to develop some market ac-
tivity any day. - s.ESE4 fS4.sS5 g .t.e@.

The Wheat Market Shows Little An
imation To-day and the
Session Drags.
The Bradstreet's Figures for the
Change in the Visible Were
# Delayed.
The Weather Fine and Gables Are
Hardly as Strong as Was
A@ Expected.

Wheat held around the 7Sc level this morning
and would not fall back. The early selling had
little effect and it began to look after the mar
ket had taken the first few heavy lots as if yes
terdays advance was to be maintained. All
the early trading was on lower range, with the
At 12A @72ac, against yesterdays close at
'olsc. but prompt recovery followed and May
sold at 1875 @ISaC. The weather was very IA
vorable and this helped weaken the tone. Cables
were also a little disappointing, although Liver
pool was SD higher. The weak opening in Chi
cago wheat dissipated by the impression
that Armour people we're replacing the wheat
sold sold at the close YESTERDAY; Counselman was
bearish. but the trade is waking up to the mod
crate stock left out of last crop.
The Record Herald sizes up the situation by
saying that Valentine yesterday gave notice to
the wheat trade that he was in the market again
by selling, perhaps. 900. 900 bu May Oh the ad-
vance. Apparently the Armour people in
credulous of the wheat price. but while no one
now believes there is any Armour May holding,
there is still good deal of faith in the May
price 1t was 31ac over the July yesterday,
WIZ wth &c a ana se
slight increase of late in the May premium in
the other markets. St. Louis May yesterday
was csc over the July: compared with Ac pre-
over July, compared with &c early last week.
There are some, the Recerd-Herald says; who be,
Heve the contract stocks small 1t Will
not need any leader in Chicago to bring about
congestion in the May; that the mere persistent
holding Of the dozen more moderate long
lines will affect natural squeeze. The outcome
will. 1t is agreed, depend largely upon whether
there appears demand for the moderate stock Of
No. 2 red In Chicago. Some Of the shippers be-
lieve there will be such demand.
Primary receipts were 516, 900 bu, and ship
ments 100000 bu against a part holiday last
year. Wheat and -four clearances were 375.OO0
bu. Minneapolis had 241 cars, against II, and
Duluth SO, against AZ.
The Bradstreets figures of the change in the
worlds visible were delayed.
New York reported 16 loads of wheat and 8
of for export
The close was easy, May 72S4c, July 7Ssc,
September &c.
Good demand ruled In the cash market. No.

decline of Sos points on the old crop positions
and decline Of 2@3 points on the new crop

better cables than had been expected. in view
of the weak closing Of the New York market
the day previous. Later cables, however, failed
I,iserpoo1 had made earlier the day. and
selling became quite active In the local field.
The PRINCIPAL factor in the decline was the
heavy movement of cotton at the ports. Wea ther
conditions were generally regarded as favorable
in the cotton belt, and selling orders COM
paratively numerous in that quarter. while the
local traders We're inclined to cover at the de-
cline. The latter demand steadied the market
1T3 points, but trading ruled moderately &C.

LARGE SHIPMENTS CERTAIN
Heavy Increase in Amount of Stored

Special to The Journal.
Winnipeg, Man. March 31.-Accordins
to the Canadian Northern weekly reports,
the total amount Of wheat stored at Port
Arthur is 2.334543 bushels, showing an
enormous increase over the amount stored
last year at the corresponding time 1t is
expected there will be large shipments Of
grain about the end Of April, when navi-
cation opens.
The weekly reports of the stocks in
store at Canadian Pacific points east and
west of Winnipeg show that in the ill.,
terror elevators there were stored 9,170.-
499 bushels. and at the FCrt Williams ele.
vators 3,S32,97 bushels. 3

THE FLOUR MARKET
GENERAL DEMAND SATISFACTORY, BUT
SHIPMENTS LIGHTER.

Shipments are not quite so heavy. only 40.370
barrels going out yesterday, or considerably less
than on any day since the car situation began to
improve two weeks ago. Demand, the millers
say, is fair. but some nillers say they found it
more than fair: that the sales we'll up to the
average and business generally satisfactory. Not
much is heard of foreign business, but 1t IS
learned that there is a fair inquiry and; while
the sales go abroad not heavy, there Is
some business being done right along.
