Grain Notes

The Chicago Inter Ocean says:
Some of the shrewd traders In wheat
said last night that there was a large
short interest out in wheat and they
believed that the long side Is the
sa fest on breaks for the present. Some
Of the conservative commission men
were tImid about advising short sales
of corn after q break of nearly ten
cents. The decline is attributed main.
ly to the imports of Argentine corn
free OF duty and the mild wealth sr
checking the consumption throughout
the West"
Bartlett. Frazier & Co. says:
"Wheat-The undertone seems quite
healthy and on all little setbacks we
advise purchases.
Corn: We believe that prices win
work off a little to-day.
Oats There is nothing in the
situation to lead us to expect any
thing but temporary rallies.
provisions: The market shows a
rather firm tone with a good class
OF buying on weak spots"

and prices sagged 4 to I points from
last nights final, in the absence of
buying orders.
Sentiment is still bearish in the 10
cal trade, and some of the more con

take advantage of any rally to put
out short lines No change of con-
sequence is looked for in prices un-
til after the ginenrs report is pub

ever, the popular opinion is that the
market will probably advance be-
tween now and that time, and it is
believed that figures will be around
500, 600 for the period.
Trading developed into complete
stagnation during the late forenoon.

STOCK GOSSIP

The New York Financial Bureau;
ON reactions good buying orders Will
be found. The technical position is
such as to encourage operations
against the shorts, which seem to be
scattered throughout the actives,'
The New York Herald: with the
general outlook the present prices
of bonds and sound stocks should be
very attractive to investors
The New York Commercial: In
vestors should not worry about the
technical position of good stocks"
The New York American: Re
cent fluctuations are termed the rest
lessness that frequently precedes an
advance
The New York Wall Street Journal:
Traders who try to cover shorts find
there is only a small supply of stock.
Many rumors are afloat that the
Union Pacific distribution may be en-
joined by the preferred stockholders
The New York Post: The market
presents nothing but an uncertain
drift of prices"
@. y. Potter SAYS. The reduction
in the Bank of England rate of dis
count to I - per cent is a bullish
argument and | believe We are only
at the beginning of a prolonged up
