Greater Activity and Higher Prices
Follow Early Dizziness.
UPWARD MOVE UNEXPLAINED
Oatside Financial District There is
Undoubted Evidence that Busi-
ness Is ON Mend, Espe-
elally In West.

NEW YORK, March 7.-Early dullness
and irreguIarity followed by greater ac-
tiYity and a pronounced hardening Of
prices which sent some Of the active
issues to the highest level Of the present
movement summarizes today's operations
on the Stock exchange
So far as could be learned none OF the
days Developments was directly respon-
sible for this change News respecting
the British coal strike was virtually un-
changed and In fact at the outset there
was disposition to view the general
advance factor being found In the an
nouncement that the government at
washington purposes to Institute fresh
proceedings fgainst the Standard OH
company because Of the alleged attempt
OF that corporation 10 acquire some Of
the larger Independent companies In the
southwest.
The report Of the Railway Steel Springs
company was altogether poor, showing
earnings Of less than ! per cent on the
common stock. Another batch Of railroad
earnings. only q few Of which were at all
favorable, and indications that the Inter
state Commerce commission viii soon
take action against the express COM
panies. were bearish features.
As an offset TO these conditions II be-
came evident In the dullness Of yester-
days market that stocks were not press
Ing for sale and technically at least the
situation was rather more favorable to
side the financial district there is indu-
bitabie evidence that business Is on the
mend. especially in the west and south
west. tF
Such significance as today's movement
may have POSSESSED attached In no small
measure to the continued strength Of the
copper shares. Ama1gamated Copper
crossed 70 for the first time In some
months and approached its best price of
the previous year, The steady advance
OF this stock has been one OF the mysti-
flying features Of the market. Foreign
demand for the metal continues apace,
but home consumers are holding back in
the hope Of some price recession.
In the way OF new financing. the Penn
sylyanil company. which IL controlled By
the railway system of that name, an
nounced the sale Of si0.ooo0o0 OF per cent
collateral trust bonds To a Pittsburgh
financial institution and other deals OF
like character are under negotiation.
The February statement Of the British
Board OF Trade shows an increase OF sls,-
5000 In imports. which lust about
doubled that OF exports. The Bank OF
England reported another decline In its
proportion Of reserves to liabilities from
y TO AID per cent -Four weeks ago when
that Institution reduced It's discount TO
81 per cent. Its reserves were up TO al
most IS per cent The Bank Of France
reported nominal loss OF gold with the
very large decrease Of s0,oooooo In dis
counts.
The Paris Bourse was firm, but In
Berlin prices weakened because OF In
creased tension In the Industrial situation.

Totals

CATTLE-Cattle receipts were fair for
q Thursday, making the total this week
l6J5 head. While. as noted yesterday, the
receipts this week are slightly larger
than last weeks very small run, they
are nevertheless smaller than the average
for a good many weeks back, and for the
four days are $40 head smaller. than for
the corresponding period a ye3r ago. The
market as whole was In very talr con-
ditlon.
Packers all seemed to want few addi-
out In the yards In good season in the
morning While the trade was not par
ticulariy active such cattle as they
wanted commanded good steady TO strong
prices On the other hand there was
some complaint on the part OF holders OF
even pretty decent cattle that did not
seem to find favor in buyers eyes.
Cows and hefers were generally IN
good demand, and they commanded fully
steady prices with statesmen In many
cases quoting them steady TO little
stronger.
There we're only a few loads Of stock
ers and feeders In sight and they sold In
about the same notches as yesterday.

Bulges in Wheat Values Due to the
Timidity Of Nay Shorts.
CORN IS AFFECTED BY WHEAT
At the same Time the Surplus Corn
Taken OFF the Market During
last Few Weeks fs Alb
sorbed by Investors.
oMAHA. March I. ~.

OMAHA, MarCn :. isi--
1t Was clearly demonstrated yesterday
that the bulges in wheat values are due
entirely to the timidity Of the May shorts
who cover quickly on the first sign OF
an over sold condition. There Is not
enough snap in the cash trade or enough
announcement in the flour demand 10
support wheat on the swelis. Crop Gam
age reports are very numerous but have
received little attention so far. should
the trade suddenly turn their attention
and credit these damage reports prices
could easily work higher.
The advance In corn was due greatly
20 the bulge In wheat. at the same time
the surplus corn taken off the market
during the last week has been firmly
absorbed BY investors who firmly be-
lieve in higher levels later In the season.
Cash demand Is low for the present and
prices have declined. A revival OF the
shipping demand and a bullish govern
ment report Friday would make the sit
uaiion doubly strong.
Liverpool cables responded 10 our ad-
vance and wheat vaiileS were held steady
for awhile. but eased off later on SLOW
cash demand.
Early profit taking eased the. corn
market al the starr, but all offerings
were taken readily and values soon
firmed up and closed strong.
Primary wheat receipts were 1900 bu.
and shipments were e52.0o bu., against
receipts last year OF S3i.oo0 bu. and ship
ments OF 1000 bu.
Primary corn receipts were $4,000 bu.
md shipments were 77s.ooo bu.. against re-
ceipts last year OF a9,0o blu. and ship
lnents OF $500 bu.
