WHEAT REACHES 81
IN LOCAL MARKET
Decrease In Visible Supply and
Strong Demand Maintain
Upward Move.

The market opened strong yesterday
and with the exception of oats gains held
TO the close on the development of
strength in foreign markets. The war in
fiuence was shown in wheat. which went
10 81 for No. northern, the wheat sup
ply abroad being firmly held. A factor in
crease of 1000, 600 bushels in the visible
supply against an increase of half a mil
lion year ago.
What the Brokers Say.
M. Doran & -Co.-Markets were strong
from the start and gained steadily with
out small receSSonS excepting oats,
which became easy in the last hour Cen
eraI bulishneSS of the outside public and
the awakening of the foreign market were
features. Commission house buying was
conspicuous and orders small. which was
suggestive of outside trade. Foreign ad-
vices strong and all markets higher Spot
gains, particularly wheat at European
sources OF supply, are firmly held. The
Eastern situation will continue an i'm
portant factor and the threatened con-
hlct IN the Balkans is another disturbing
element. We believe in buying wheat
corn ana oats on receSSions, but beware of
the bulgeS.
Wheat-Foreign markets ranged from
2sd to asd UP at Liverpool to 215c up at
Budapest; Liverpool reports shortage of
good qualities. European supplies of low
and average grades scarce, as it is to
America that the foreigner looks for sup
pines OF that character, and the domestic
demand Is urgent and taking care of of
terlngs- No, l northern at Minneapolis
sold at 81 today. No. 8 red here brought
$1.O3 and No. 2 red $1.05, and is reported
bid at Oklahoma country stations and
finding but few, sellers. Visible decreased
nearly one million bushels against increase
of half million year ago. Local re-
ceipts 40 cars, With so estimated tomor-
row.
Corn-The local trade sold at the open
ing but buying by commission houses ran
them to cover and held the market re-
markedly firm. Country movement is
light Over four fifths of local receipts
were No. and no grade, with only two
contracts out of a total of 658. Iowa
feeders are as well stocked with cattle as
usual and corn Is a necessity to them
at any price. The severe winter is a
factor which will have to be taken into
account. as it has increased enormously
farm consumption Local market was 1c
higher all around. Local estimated to-
morrow 5S5 cars.
Oats-Oats until noon participated in
strength of the other markets when SELL
ing by early buyers took the edge off
prices and the close was unchanged from
Saturday for May, but higher for the de-
ferred futures.
Provisions-The prices all show a pretty
fair advance compared with previous
close. Pork is 271zc higher and lard and
ribs are up to 10@12Ac. The advance is
due principally to efforts of a few local
commission houses, but larger wire houses
early and who were the cause of a good
deal of short covering on advance There
, was some scattered Investment buying by
commission houses but larger wire houses
were induced to take profits. Packers sold
product in small way in the swell Es-

NEW YORK, Feb. 15.-The stock mar
ket today was iistless, but light as was
the trading it was sufficient to maintain
I prices; Tnere was no sign OF hquida5
on the short side OF the market. There
was nothing in the days news that seem
ed to have any influence upon the market
beyond the negative influence of the alb
sence of selling pressure. The special de-
mand for Baltimore last week for funds
which counteracted the currency move
ment to New York is expected to con-
tinue this week The financial world.
however, Is in very composed frame Of
mind regarding the money outlook, in
spite of the Baltimore demand. the COM
ing Panama canal payment and the con-
tinued temporary borrowing by railroads,
which receives a greater or less addition
every day.
The abstract Of the reports of national
banks throughout the country as of Jan.
y, shows some comparisons with the
condition of Nov. II, the period of the last
call by the comptroller, which help to ex-
plain this confidence. While the total loans
for that period have increased some $44,
100000 the reports of New York clearing
house banks between the nearest corre-
spending dates show an increase Of $751;
,00O The aggregate increase in de-
positS which reached $f24 900, 900 Is also
exceeded by the New York increase, which
was $139, 900, 900. It thus appears that the
enormous increase which was noted IN the
New York bank loans during that time
and which has gone still further since
then, was accompanied by an actual
Shrinkage in the loan account of other ma
tional banks.
interior Banks After Interest.
This corroborates the supposition that
interior banks as well as New York trust
companies were transferring deposits to
New York banks to take the interest rates
on deposits and reducing their own loans
because of the low rates to which interest
on money had fallen. The aggregate re-
serves of the country have increased about
$94. 100000, while the New York reserves
expand $780, 900. The small loan expan-
sion shown by the Saturday bank state
ment is also interpreted as showing that
the large corporation borrowings, which
have made so portentive an impression,
were largely provided for in the previous
loan expansion.
OF today's few noteworthy movements
that in Amalgamated Copper was attrib-
uted to an advance in the price of cop
per. Reports were current that an agree
ment had been reached between the larg-
est individual holders of New York Central
stock to pool the stock and Withhold it
from the market, and the shorts in the
OF the serious Illness of the German en-
peror and the car were without appar-
ent effect. Reports of rate cutting on
grain, the failure of railroad earnings to
show improvement and rumors of a COM
ing strike In the soft coal fields were
equally without effect The closing was
firm but nearly stagnant. The days bus
mess was the smallest in nearly four
years.
The bond market was also exceedingly
dull and the tone was steady. Total sales,
par value, $1.218 500. United States
bonds were unchanged on call.
