this morning and early prices marked the continuation of the recent advance with further heavy arbitrage purchases of both May and July.
 The level of today's market was nearly a cent a pound above the prices prevailing early In the month, so that realizing on the part of outside holders in the summer months seemed only natural These sales checked the ad- vance, bringing about a decline at the close of below last nights figures.
 Weather conditions south were again unfavorable, owing to heavy rains in the central belt which will further de- lay planting. So far 1t cannot fairly be said that the crop has been seriously delayed, but complaints begin to come from the west and from the central belt and the weather should therefore be closely watched.

RADICAL bEAR|SH
 FEELING DEVELOPS.
Brilliant Crop Outlook Is Among Features Respon-
 sible-ClOse Heavy

Chicago, March 3f.-Radical bearish sentiment as to wheat developed today because of the brilliant crop outlook and in consequence of the total lack of ex- ports. The market had no good reaction and closed heavy, 7s611c under last night. Corn finished ss1Ac to 1c down. and oats off asq3ic In provisions the outcome va ried from 10c decline to an advance of 2ihc.
 Liquidating sales on the part of the big holders formed an important element in the situation regarding wheat, but the downward pressure was by no means confined to longs. In view of the further rains over western Kansas, relieving ap- prehension of drouth in that region, the main body of spectators accepted the crop promise perfect on the greatest acreage ever reported for April l. and there was soon evidence that the widen ing break was fast bringing into action many stop-loss orders.
 Notwithstanding a big falling off in the worlds available stock of wheat no authentic trace could be obtained of any export business being done The actual seaboard clearances did not include a single bushel of domestic wheat.
 Furthermore. milling demand was at a minimum, and there was increasing quantities of new wheat being offered for sale here to arrive in July.
 Corn trade became semi-demoralized as a result of the cheapest offers yet from Argentina Besides, westbound rail rates from New York were being cut in some places, and there was enlargement of the eastern inquiry for corn from here It was said 12000,000 bushels of corn had been sold from Argentine ports for April May shipments to American markets, and in addition considerable was coming to the United States from India.
 The weakness of corn and wheat was too much for the oats market. Specula- tion was emphasized by the big stock holdings and by per cent increase of acreage in Oklahoma.
 Provisions receded with grain. There was some substantial buying on the de- clines, thought to be for one of the lead ing packers.

ACTIVE COVERING
 BY OLD CROP SHORTS
Active Months Sell 3 to IA Points Net Higher as
 Result

New York, March S1.--A sharp early advance in cotton was followed by an equally sharp decline. with the close steady, net points lower to points higher. Reactionary sentiment seemed to gain ground after the last March short had covered, although there was change in the general character of the news and the market was steadied toward the close by a renewed demand for May and July cotton from leading spot brokers.
 There was active covering by old crop shorts at the start, and after opening steady at an advance of 2 to points, active months sold about to IA points net higher. Relatively steady cables and private advices from Manchester claim ing that spnners had decided not to close down their mills for Easter week owing to an improved demand from China and India undoubtedly stimulated early de- mand.
 Bullish southern spot advices also had some influence while there was buying of new crop positions, which seemed to be encouraged by reports of unfavorable weather in the south and talk of delayed crop preparations in the southwest. There were no large blocks of March wanted, but there were quite a good many small buying orders around the ring, and 1t was estimated that about 10000 bales trad ing in during the morning.
 The demand from March shorts was supplied at abou 80 points over May, however, as soon as this support slacken- ed, the whole list sagged off. March broke from IS. .40a13.25c with tho last sale at 12.S7c. and after selling at l2,eoc on the early advance, May eased off to F. 4oc on the afternoon reaction. Closing prices were or points up from the lowest on covering and trade buying.

BELIEVED DECISION
 WILL FAVOR ROADS
Rate News Construed Dis tinctly Bullish and Mar
 ket Responds

New York March s1-The extent to which the speculative situation is bound up in the freight rates case was indi- cated today by the course of the stock market. The action of the interstate commerce commission is expediting the rate case foreshadowed an early decis- ion and as the financial community ex- rects that the decision will be favorable to the railroads, the news was construed as distinctly bullish. The market re- sponded strongly.
 While the upturn was attributable pri- marily to the action of the commerce commission, it was influenced fundamen- tally by the strong technical position of the market. Professional selling had been carried to a point which exposed the shorts to successful attack. In fact, the advance began in the late session yes- terday and was resumed at the outset today, before the announcement that the railroads would be permitted to com Tlete their testimony immediately.
 Other influences were at work on con- strucuve side. Estimates of the state of winter wheat indicated a promising outlook. The London market was more cheerful and American stocks advanced there. London was a buyer here, talk iEs perhaps 5000 shares
 Despite the hopes for better business entertained by brokers in the early part Of the year, trading thus far has been no heavier than in 1913. With the close of the market today the first quarter of the year ended. During that time trans actions in stocks were about 220OO, GOO shares, compared with 22, 5000 shares E Sala about $21S, ,ooo,O0o compared with s145, 900. GOO ill 1913.
