Daily Stock Letter.

| United Press Leased Wire Service.
| NEW YORK, April 12.--The New
! York Evening Sun financial review TO-
! day said:
| Further covering by the short inter
ests caused by rumors Of peace and by
various aspects of current news de-
velopments impaired still flrmer
tone to the general list In today's stock
market. Trading was quiet, however,
and almost entirely of professional ORR
gin.
Copenhagen hears that Germany is
proffering peace overtures to this
country and Lloyd's Of London report
betting that hostilities will come to
an end by July.
A progressive movement kept the
general list firm. with mid-afternoon
prices at the highest level of the day.
There were moderate fluctuations in
the later trading. The feeling in the
street that congress was disposed to
proceed with the taxation problem IN
the most conservative spirit and re-
port from Rome that Bulgaria was
seeking peace, served, with what had
gone before, to keep the shorts on the
move.
The steel and shipping shares re-
Elected the best demand among the In
dustrials. The sugar stocks were
strong as were most of the specialtles.
The railway list was In general mar
row and dull. Union Pacific and Read
ing lost most Of their initial gains.
Delaware and Hudson sold to a new
low level.

Of the National Lead company, was

wife early today when he returned

she had shot her husband when she
mistook him for burglar
According to the police, Agmar has
admitted he had been attentive to Mrs.
Doremus during her husbands alb
sence and that the shooting had fol-
lowed a violent quarrel.
AS he was going on the operating
table, Doremus told the surgeons that

Long Commission CO. Grain Letter.
Furnished by Long Commission Co,
4O3 Main st. Telephone No. 350351. j
CHICAGO, April 12.-Wheat-Our
brief statement of April 10 in defense
of grain exchanges has received much
favorable comment. For much more
complete discussion of the same top
ic, we urge the widest publicity of J,
Ralph Pickell's article, rs Speculation
a Failure?" which is to appear In the
Rosenbaum Review of April IA. The
demand for cash wheat in every posi-
ton, and the strength Of the nearby
delivery in southwestern markets Off
set the effect Of scattered rains in the
southwest. It is believed that the
cash wheat now in store at all markets
is owned either by shippers or millers,
and it seems difficult to further de-
press the price of future contracts be-
low that of the cash article. Premiums
for milling and export wheat were the
highest on the crop, not only here but
in Omaha and Kansas City. Foreign
ers and domestic consumers are bid
ding against each other
Corn-The announcement that dis,
tilleries are being turned over to the
government for the manufacture of al
coho1, and the scarcity of corn in CON-
mercial channels, combined with bull
lish foreign news to advance prices.
The urgent need in the corn market is
for more cars to ship to market the
supplies that are unwillingly held in
the country. Do not overlook the ex-
hortation Of the united States depart
ment of agriculture to plant corn early
in anticipation of possible damage by
early frosts.
Oats-It is believed that, while
stocks of oats are heavy and have
been an advantage so far in checking
price advances, the bulk of the stored
oats in this country are already sold
to go out when freight room is avail
able. The process Of moving the Chi
cago stocks will start in large way,
with the opening Of navigation, and
short in May oats may not find his po-
sition comfortable. With an advanc-
ing tendency in other grains, it seems
plausible that oats will seek higher
level
Observation-Disclosures were strong
and higher N sympathy with grain.
Selling was scarce except on the adj
vance. where there was evidence Of
profit taking. Heavy buying Of July
ribs by local house was the feature.
Cash trade was unchanged.
