In the South.
New Orleans-Regarding Mr.. Ba.

tonnage enough to provide for cotton
exports, local shippers take exception
claiming that much tonnage is now be-
ing held up by red tape and war regu-
lations which, now that the war is
over, should be removed. 1t is begin
ming to be pointed out that before long

mage will be put to use. Further tele-

New York-The market appears to
be in a sold lou position and to pro-
III a considerable short interest, a
condition that could easily make a rally
for a short time; but / believe that
trading rallies are all that can be
looked for at present, and that when
commodity prices start down the prices
of stocks will closely correspond. We
must not fail to give due regard to
the problems of readjustment Of affairs
to a peace basis. This applies to the
railroads as well as to the Industrial
market, though there is a more dis
tant consideration.-Morse to Shepard

Chicago-The record provision levels
which face a possible serious trade re-
action have been used as a boost on
corn. Some believe the wave of famine
talk influences may end today or
Wednesday. The East is oversupplied
with corn meal and some critics say
the United States will export no corn
Of consequence for months. The cash
corn price has not followed the futures.
The government has cut off purchases
of oats, feed n hay. Many Western
bakers are evidently making big bread
profits and will have to be forced off
the use of corn and substitutes. New
movement of corn rarely arrives before
