A repetion of the previous days tradings was pulled off on the ex- change yesterday. There was little more activity and diversification, but a hesitant one was evident on for eign news. United States Steel trading was on a narrow gauge. Dullness be- came more marked during the noon hour, but the tendency was toward further improvement. Shippings, mo tors, Lackawanna Steel and Corn Products were 1 to points over yes- terday's close. but American Tele- phone and Peoples Gas reacted a point. Motors, tobaccos and low-priced spe- c;aIties showed extreme gains of l to 2k points in the listless final hour. The closing tone was firm. Liberty 315c sold at 9S.96 to 99, first is at s664 to s674. and second As at 96.62 to 9s.76.

Hubbard Bros. & Cos Letter

New York. April Especial )-For- eign advices were disappointing in that the advance abroad did not equal the improvement here, but the offerings at the opening were quickly absorbed by the local traders, who thought that the demand during the day from spin ners would cause an advance. In this idea they were right, the market slow ly advancing up to the last hour when outside parties again became large buyers. especially of the new crop de- liveries.
 The market closed strong. with the trade expecting hfsner prices tomor- row.

FREEZING WEATHER BULLS GRAIN PIT
Feared Extreme Cold Will Affect Termination of
 Oats Now in Ground

Chicago April 3.-Freezing weather in the northwest had decided bullish ef- feet today on oats and indirectly also on corn. Prices closed unsettled with oats 1l2c to 1ssc to 1s4c net higher, and corn UP 1ac at s1.25&. May provisions gained 12c to SC.
 Activity centered in the oats market and there was a notable evident renew al of seaboard demand, based on appre- hension that cold might result in serious interferences with the germnating of the new crop Assertions of some au- NoHties that low temperature would have beneficial influence by retarding top growth and by strenthening roots failed to allay uneasiness or to bring about any lasting check to the ascent of the market. An additional bullish factor was Knowledge that the United States visible supply was still f6,000 001 bushels less than was the case a yea. ago, and that the North American total was 39.000,000 bushels short as compared with last years figures.
 Corn sympathized with the oats strength, notwithstanding thae the visi- ble supply of corn is about 1000 GOO bush els in excess of the aggregate at the cor responding time in 1917 Bulls were handicapped, though, by material im- provement in the quality of receipts here.
 Provisions ran up owing to jumps in the value of grain and hogs.
