2 cents per pound. With foreigners bidding for
No. hard wheat, (. o. b. steamers at Gulf ports,
quail TO per cent over the Chicago May price.
Iere little IN the situation that those who are
Investigating high prices can take exeepdon to.
Breadstufs badly wanted abroad and the agents
sting for the foreign goyeTnments are said to hold
fpen buying orders which mean secure the wheat
10 matter what the price may BE- I"
The cash wheat situation continued to oVerbasnce
n elss - . market factor. There Is very little
sheat coming 70 Chicago and very little Is TO Be
found sale from day to day. The reason for this
ssrdty Il that the other markets Of the country
outidding u.s. and it is impossible to SECURE
snough Of the cash article to meet the wants OF the
ninerS While there many unfaVorable crop
reports TO come forward to the various commission
hous.s today there also large number re-
porting improved conditions. Foreigners bought
futures in the Chicago market today, adding to
their holdings Of both May and Wly.
While the May future up lEa2 cents today
the deferred months were ISs2k cents lower. Casn
interests bought ths May largely and the September
and JCly taken By local influential interests
and houses with Eastern connections
There were losses IN the corn and oats prices Of
kaH and Ha% cent, respectively. today Influential
interests were sellers Of both thee grains and the
rads on the whole Inclined to wait soft spots
On which to make purchases.
Hog products were allowed to drift Ribs were
shade better and May lard and pork were stronger,
but the other commodities were a little lower.

SPECULATIVE ISSUES
SHOW new STRENGTH
!. S. Steel Advances ~ Points.
Bethlehem B. Also Receivers.

CBy the international News seryiee.D
New York, April 11.-Strength in the
stock market today was due very large
" to the covering of short contracts that
had been put out by professional traders.
Some wonder has been expressed in the
last few days as to where the stocks that
were sold were coming from. Today's
market proved that they did not come
from anywhere. They were sold by peo-
pie who didn't own them. The public has
thus far refused to show the slightest
alarm at the state Of war that has been
declared. Brokers have few stocks on
margin and their loans are small. The
technical condition of the market Is gooo.
4 Nearly all the speculative favorites
were strong today with United States
Steel attracting most attention in its ad-
vance Of 21-2 points. 1t closed at the
top. Other sharp recoveries were In Beth
lehem B., General Motors and in the
steel and munition stocks generally
Here and there a stock was heavy and
one of these was Sloss-Shenield because
IL Is In danger Of losing its dividend alto
gether.
Wall Street talked of but little less be-
sides the war bond issue OF 5000 o,Ooo
the note issue of 8, 900 900. 900 and the loan
Of 1900. 10000 Of this money to the allies.
This Is an extremely serious matter from
the stock market point Of view.
The bond issue viii not be a depressing
influence on stocks, because It will ada
Just as much to the circulating medium
Of the country.
Hope of rate increase helped the rail-
road list, but the improvement was check
ed by heavy selling Of Union Pacific, ap-
parently for the account OF the allies
Delaware and Hudson struggled up about
two points from its depression.
