GRAIN AND PRODUCE

Chicago, January 23-Peace talk and lack of foreign demand except from Holland led today to lower prices for wheat. The market closed previously 94 to 2A net lower. with May at s1.s4sl to s1S47s and July at sL52h. Corn finished unchanged to a shade lower Oats off $ to F and provisions with gains of 290 to 62
 Bearish sentiment regarding wheat be- gan to spread almost as soon as busi- ness opened. Much notice was taken of assertions that President Wilson's speech apparently opened the door anew to peace negotiations. At the same time 4 decided absence of foreign buying was evident, and one of the chief shipping authorities said his private cables indicated that the demand from Europe would be slow for sometime. The British commission was represented as at present, trying only to forward wheat already purchased. New crop months. however, developed consid- erable strength owing to reports that the winter crop was being endangered by adverse weather conditions in Ne braska and by Hessian fly in Illinois
 Aggressive selling by houses with east ern connections took place at the close of the wheat market drew near and as the effect of crop damage fears seemed on the wane. The weakness which had prevailed early was now intensified and lowest prices of the day were reached just before the finish
 Corn was relatively firm owing to re- ports that 75 per cent of the Argentine crop had received irreparable damage. Besides receipts of corn here were meager and rural offerings small. Oats reflected

PRIMER MARKET
 FOLLOWS BREAK
Cotton Closes at Good Net Advance Over Mon-
 days Close

New York, January 23-After a rather sharp forenoon break, the cotton market became firmer with May selling up from 16.76 to 1719c or 30 points above last nights close. The list closed steady at a net advance of 15 to 26 points.
 The reactionary feeling which developed in the market after the big break of yesterday was encouraged by relatively firm cables and after opening at an ad- vance of to B points, prices sold about IA to P points above yesterdays closing right after the call There was active covering and probably some fresh buy ing, but the advance met increased of ferings. New Orleans was a seller here, while weakness in the New Orleans mar ket seemed to inspire rumors of an easier spot situation. Liverpool was also a seller and and local pressure became more aggressive as soon as long cotton seemed to be coming on the market
 A few stop loss orders were uncovered and prices broke to about F to 15 points lower Pressure then subsided and tEe market rallied sharply on covering, while buying>for a reaction was encouraged by the large exports and there was also a moderate, demand from trade sources. Stop orders were uncovered on the short side, which helped the advance to 16.9Sc for March, and 17.18c for July, with ac- tive months selling 26 to 30 points net higher during the middle of the afternoon Slight reactions followed under realiz- ing, but selling was held in check by the continued bullish average of private spot advices, and the market held the greater part of it's gains

New Orleans Cotton

New Orleans, January 2S.-Strong recu- perative power was shown by cotton here today, the market recovering after sev- eral declines brought about by pressure from short selling. Last prices were at a net rise of F to 21 points. The sub stances of the stimulating features of the day was the large export movement
 The opening was at the advance and prices gained IS to 26 points in the early trading. Cables were better than due and the trade regarded favorably the census bureaus ginning report, which placed the output up to the middle of January at 11,1471lS bales, indicating a production for the period of 1O2,00O bales against 11500 this period last year The inn provement was met by extremely heavy offerings of short cotton under which prices crumbled 35 to s points, the active months landing F to r points below the level of yesterdays close After several minor reeoveries and declines the mar ket finally firmed up and rose strongly to a net gain of 26 to 32 points.
 Exports for the day from all ports were 59,23S bales against receipts at all ports of only 25,102 bales. The export movement thus far this week amounted to 104,4lS bales against only 60,076 dur ing the same time last year. This caused confusion among the shorts because of recent bearish predictions of a falling off In the outward movement of the crop.

STOCK TURNOVER
 SMALL YESTERDAY
Extreme Dullness Was Only Feature With Heaviness
 Marked at Close

New York, January .23.-Excessive dull ness was the only striking feature of to- days session. sales barely amounting to 100000 shares, the smallest turnover of any full day since last August Of this total more than 40 per cent represented the operations of the first hour, the market thereafter drifting idly, with general heavness at the end.
 Developments in the so-called leak in- vestigation, with the scene shifted to this city. excited little interest Far more attention was direced toward the meet Ing of the Bethlehem Steel board, the result of which was not announced until long after the close of the session.
 Bethlehem Steel meanwhile fluctuated between 450 and 430, closing at the latter quotation with a net loss of point. while the preferred gained points. On the curb the new Bethlehem stock opened On the usual "when issued' basis at 140 bid, 200 asked, but sold down to 133 later.
 The decision of the Bethlehem directors to declare the increased rate of dividend and the 200 per cent stock bonus was in line with general expectations, although the nonvoting clause attaching to the new stock caused some surprise.
 CHahSeS III iOtHer QudrIerS or the lSC were So irregular in the main as to have no real significance. United States Steel, the shipping division, coppers and Mex lcan Petroleum, Chemicals and Fertili- gers, as well as Gas and Sugar shares were 10 to B points higher at their best but failed to hold.
 Texas company and Associated Oil, Tn- dustrial Alcohol, Liggett & Myers Tobac- co, and American Hide and Leather pre- ferred constituted some of the offsetting features, as declines of 1 to points, with an extreme reversal of points for Brook lyn Rapid Transit.
 Rails remained sluggish, with few transactions in standard issues and a further advance in Long Island and marked weakness in New Haven.
 Russian and Italian exchange estab- lished new low records. with indications of liquidation in fires. which fell to 7.13 while rubles yielded to 2S35
 Bonds were irregular, with total sales par value, s4,O60 900.
 United States bonds were unchanged on call.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York, January 23.-The exneoted recovery from the depression of vester- day came today. though checked early in
 the day by the unaccountable weakness in Liverpool, where cotton is selling away below any of the American markets. We hear of the restrictions in Liverpool. though no one knows just what they are. so we are unable to do more than sur. mise that the stock of cotton there is too
 mucn TOT the amount of capital directly in the trade. Exports to France today are believed to consist of the linters re- gently purchased here. Tonight the trade expects sharp recovery in Liverpool. but is not so confident regarding this
 market because of the reported purchases by single large operator through Chi cago houses.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1917-01-24

bear selling ran values down some 70 points, but there was further buying on the. break, which resulted in a steady advance throughout the remainder of the session, the close being about IS points higher than yesterday.
 Spots were quoted about unchanged. and exports were large. However, there does not seem to be the class of supnort that spot conditions would justify and I would not buy cotton until there was some further show of strength, rather prefer ring to sell on the bulges for a scalp.
