TgDAf'S MARKET REPORTS

Chicago, March 2-CoRN-Fine weather
likely to facilitate the crop movement
tended today to ease the corn market
Later, however, prices were rallied by the
prospect of liberal export business. 1t
was said also that the country was again
complaining of car scarcity. Opening fig
ures, which showed a sixteenth decline at
$1-26A@ 81 May were followed by a re-
covery.
Low grades were hard to sell, as one of
the leading industries remained out of the
market. on the other. hand, sales of cash
corn to the seaboard this week were esti-
mated at 10000 bushels, all to go to the
entente allies. Futures closed steady at
the same as. yesterdays finish with March
$1.27A and May S1.27
OATS-Absence of any aggressive buy
ing allowed oats to sag. Reports that
seeding was going on in Kansas counted
against the bulls After opening 1s6Ac
off to sc up, with May S71hc to S73sc
the market scored a slight upturn, but
soon reacted.
PROVISIONS-Higher quotations on
hogs gave strength to provisions. Demand
tho was of only a scattered sort.
Gains were well maintained, owing part
ly to the scantiness of the available sup
plies of lard here.

GRAIN PRICES WANE
slight Decrease During Week Due to
Fixing Maximum Price.

Chicaso, March 2.-Sharp setbacks
ir values on change here have re-
suited This week largely from the es-
taiishinc of maximum price limits on
every commodity that is traded in.
oats and pork were affected most.
Compared with a week ago corn this
ruornin., was unchanged to 5s a u
cent lower. Oats off % to 8 Is a u
and provisions down Is to $2.75.
Despite a general rush to let go of
speculailve holdings of oats the corn
market held relatively steady. The
chief reason was that the restrictions
did not apply directly to corn any
more than had been the case for some
time.
Liqu dation of oats holdings reached
a big total.
Most of the decline in provisions
was traeeable to the setting of an all
around maximum price limit.

Vologna, Russia, Friday, March l.
An example of the tendency being
shown in interior Russia to follow the
example of Moscow and declare
against separate peace with Germany
and for a fight to the limit of the
revolution is furnished by the action
of the council of soldiers and work
mems delegates at Pensea, some $50
miles southeast of Moscow. This
council has declined to approve the
signing of peace treaty with the
central powers and has declared for a
Holy war. The council at Narva by
a vote of 40 to 10 called for general
mobilization and against separate
peace.
Provinces Mobilize for Battle.
General m utilization orders have
been issued in Kazan province. In
these orders all the soviets are urged
to fight Germany to the bitter end

In d u s trials s
Cotton

There were violent fluctuations in the
cotton market yesterday an advance of
approximately cent pound being fol-
lowed by equally extreme reactions Of
70 to rs points. July contracts sold up
to 2724, or fully SIS per bale above
Thursdays closing figures, and closed
at $3.50, with the market closing weak
at net advance of 10 to 27 points on
all months except May, which was 3
points lower.
The days fluctuations did not seem
to be connected with any special feat
ure in the news. The forecast for
frost in Arkansas and parts of Okla
homa seemed partly responsible for
the buying movement and there were
reports of an improved spot demand. 1t
may be, too, that the successful block
ing of the submarine base at Ostend
was factor, but on the whole the
big advance seemed to grow out of
the technical position. Shorts have
been showing uneasiness ever since
the publication of the last weekly re-
port Of the Weather Bureau, and when
the buying movement started to-day
there seemed to be very few contracts
for sale. Stop orders were uncovered,
but as soon as more urgent demand
had been supplied prices weakened,
selling off almost as rapidly as they
had advanced Reports that New Eng
land mill men were finding it difficult
to sell goods and were we'll supplied
with raw cotton were circulating on
the late decline and may have stimu-
lated profit taking after the advance
of nearly SIS bale from the low level
Of last Saturday.
The market opened at an advance Of 3
to IL points and sold Is to 26 points net
higher right after the call on continu-
alton of Thursdays buying movement
The failure of the early news to con-
firm Thursdays rumors of important
war developments was disappoint-
ment which led to realizing, but reac-
tions of several points We're soon fol-
lowed by renewed strength. Active
months showed net advances Of 80 to
101 points at the best, or 28O to 289
points from the low levels of late last
week. May was relatively weak, owing
to the circulation Of few notices, and
there were rumors during the day that
shipments Of tinges and blue stains
were on the way here for delivery on
contract. There were also rumors,
however, that British buyers were TAX
ing low grades in the South, and that
purchases were being made with con-
fdence that the British government
would furnish freight room later on
Exports for the day were 1886 bales
Southern spot markets as officially re-
ported were unchanged to SO points
higher.
