WAGNER,S REVIEW
.March past, of the Week.

| Chicago, March 21.-Business news
OF the world for the week has been
mainly hesitant. The trade rally OF
January has failed to bring a duplica'
ton. There is not under way IN any
industry a buying movement or SUI
preme volume. The tariff has entire
IIv subjugated the steel industry. III
/ Europe continues dull for year our
steel companies as wen as the rails
will require help" in their profits
department.
Corn news of week indicates
enough southwest scarcity to help
clean up Chicago supplies. On the
advance eastern consumers have be-
come alarmed-buying probably p
O0O, 900 Argentine corn at 10 to IL
cents below western corn, New York
basis.
The west and southwest are now
on an independent corn basis and a
return of bearish conditions could
hardly depress the future below the
February AID March average low
points. On the other hand, is a run
into the seventies we must remem-
Der that our eastern markets will
likely be subject to Argentine multi
alton for months. Southwestern corn
markets to be in line with their
great scarcity should sell cents
above Chicago.
The pitiful weekly export wheat
totals from Argentina defeat the $780,
100000 winter wheat prospect in the
United States. North American
wheat and flour exports this week of
4,4SO.O00 are rlarge. On basis of
worlds wheat statistical position
there should be no decline of conse-
quence for some weeks and the mar
ket will finally be forced to respond
to reports of liberal export sales.
The March reserve report showed
Oklahoma, Missouri, Kansas and Ne
braska short just 1OO,OOO.00O corn.
One hundred millions they could use
with comfort That is the crux of the
corn situation. An extra argument
calls for the conservation Of the Illi-
nois and Iowa reserves, which are
100000 below an average.
Oats visible decrease for period of
Jan. 1 to April 1 will equal 100000
to 100000. One of fastest de-
creases known. The enormous spread
between corn and oats guarantees
40 cent oats, but the March reserves
were liberal and terminal stocks on
May 1 will be heavy enough to in
duce deliveries. Oats have gained
by the corn rally, but their technical !
position does not appear to appeal to |
any stray generous bull instincts.
The weak world trade position and |
expanding foreign acreage is against |
4 strong cotton movement, but the |
market for nett so days should easily |
nave weathered the bear troubles of |
he fall and early 1914. A domestic |
of 100000 and exports |
IF 100000 mean close to a 14,OOO,- |
20 bale basis.
