CHICAGO GRAIN

CHICAGO. March 6.-Announce- ments that exports have been much larger than was generally supposed had a good deal to do with substantial up turns which took place in the wheat market today Closing quotations were firm, x tu 2as net higher. with May at $l.9O1s to Sl90A and July at Sl.5s to $l59k. Other commodities, too, scored gains-corn l T. to 2c; oats F to F and provisions 2n5 to F. Evidence of urg- ent export demand helped the wheat market upgrade from the outset
 Scarcity of wheat for immediate shipment was illustrated by the pay ment of S2.0l bushel here today for No. 2 red. showing a bonus of llhc for spot delivery as against the May option
 Corn reached q new high level of prices, a result due in part to show ing of enlarged exports of corn as well as of wheat. Besides. receipts were small. Filling of government contracts acted as d stimulus to the oats market.
 Fresh record breaking advances in the hog market carried provisions up- ward Close:

over their stocks on the news from Washington.
 , There is a big short interest in Cen tral Leather and a strong crowd be- hind the stock. This company shows up stronger on it's balance sheet than almost any company on the list.
 The sensation of the curb market to- day was Jerome Verde, which opened at 112 and sold up to 27s at the close, on an estimated turnover of over 300,- 900 shares.
 Reliable reports from Jerome stated that late last night they encountered copper glance in the shaft at about 940 feet. The last report was that the bot tom of the shaft was in ore on both sides.
 The public interest in this stock for the past few months has been very keen, due to it's proximity to United Verde Extension And if the ore en- countered holds out. it no doubt means the adding of another rich, producing property to the Jerome district, and in cidentally adding much wealth to the many Arizona stockholders of the com pany.
 The curb market showed some hesi- tancy in the early trading on devel- obments al Washington and the bears

NEW YORK, March 6.-The upward which began with the expiration of congress, continued today on q broader and more impressive scale. Technical conditions. especially the drastic li- quidation of recent months and an at tenuated bear position, conduced meas urably to the further improvement, in which rails almost alone failed to share.
 More substantial gains were made by shippings, munitions and a wide var iety of equipments.
