STOCKS-New features were alb
sent in the stock market this past
week. Favorable terms of the Vic
tory loan raised the general tone and
trading was fairly active in a num-
Der of issues. Some issues, such as
steel, continued 10 sag, but some new
speculative energy was evident The
markets underlying support did not
change. There has been little al
formation in general aspect over the
past so days. Barring the profound
effect of progress at the peace con-
ference, the market has been unaf-
fected by current events. Traders
keep looking far ahead and base
their optomism upon the prospect Of
good business, present financial
soundness, glowing crop reports, and
Improvement in the sale Of manufac-
tured goods.
GRAIN--May and September corr
reached new high points for the
season early in the week. Country
offerings were not large, due part
ly TO car shortage and bad roads
Short covering had much TO do with
the advance. Then followed a de-
cline and two days of variation with
in a narrow range. Some bearish
sentiment developed, owing to the
prospect of a strike at New York,
improved weather, and other factors.
The market fell into a waiting atti-
tude. Oats were relatively stronger
than corn. Delayed seeding has
assumed serious proportions in parts
of the northwest Good Friday the
grain market. in concert with other

CAUTION NOTE IN
FINANCE CIRCLES
Approaching Victory Loan
Dominates in Money
World.

The approaching Victory loan
dominates finance and caution will
prevail until its requirements are
met. The money market is holding
steady, but shows no marked activ-
ity. Banks have sufficient funds 10
meet all reasonable needs. Quiet
optimism is the keynote.
Some large houses report a good
demand for commercial paper out
side the large cities. Rates hold at
IA TO IL percent. Banks have
bought treasury certificates heavily,
already issued $1,000, 100000 in ex-
cess OF the fifth loan. The markets
present easy tone may be partly due
to Sec'y Glass announcement that
no more popular loans viii follow.
Call money has touched and per
cent lately, but averages about IL

range from II TO 5 "a.

fairly typify the strength of the
country's financial position. Banks
and other well informed sources be-
lieve the coming loan will be fully

able comment greeted the statement

value close 20 par.
Now that uncertainty as TO the
loan has been removed, financial cir
cles are more confident. Money is
even now more available for build
ing, and contractors applications
for casualty insurance have in
creased. Fears that the loan Will net
prove adequate to government needs
are offset by decliinG expenditures
and the prospect of placing other
bond or note issues more easily in
the future when business will have
improved and circumstances suggest
proper methods. Figures indicate
that savings banks viii not suffer

Trend Of the Markets
StockS-Grain-LiOeStock-CottOn

SrOCkS-Trading continues I'm
abated- The past week brought
with it the 18th day since January
1 WIN transactions exceed 1,OOO,-
600 shares, contrasting with three
days over the corresponding period
in 1918. II in 1917, two in 1916,

1907. Peace news brightens AL
though Germany has yet 10 sign,
and the conference has yet TO de-
fine its attitude toward the Soviet
republics of Russia and Hungary,
prospects for the normal resump-
ton of business. attendant upon re-
construction. are brighter than at
any time since the armistice, and
have a strengthening effect upon
the market. On the other hand, the
impending Victory loan necessarily
restraints trading and a suggested in
crease in freight rates, the price
muddle, strike movements in the
east. and persistent hesitation over
buying. temper somewhat the op-
timism leaders feel toward the do
nestle situation.
GRAIN-More than 1,050,OOO tons
OF shipping have been allocated TO
the work of feeding hungry Eu-
rope. Here lies the key TO present
strength in the grain market, which
reached a climax the past week,
May and September corn touching
new high points for the season. The
need Of foOdstuffs in stricken areas
of Europe grows keener. and will
tend TO firm the market at least I'M
til the mammoth wheat crop is har-
vested. Temporary bearish factors
are the prospect of an ocean tie-up
by strike at New York and lighter
country offerings, due to recent bad
weather and roads. Labor condi-
tons in the Argentine have i'm
proved, permitting larger exporta-
tons Millers propose an Eat
More Bread" campaign to help alb
sOrb the anticipated wheat surplus.
This novel move would be watched
with interest and humorous appre-
citation.
LINESTOCK-New high records
have become so common as to excite
only moderate comment. Top fancy
hogs reached the phenomenal point
OF 5000 during the week, while the
general averages stood S2O63, sass
higher than n year ago and S13.13
above 1915. Receipts at II princi-
pal markets continue 10000 10 25,-
600 lower than last year. while de-

mand remains brick. A govern
ment contract for $4,000 lbs. of beef
has had a stimulating effect upon
the cattle market.
COTTON-ContrOve still turns
on the proposed reduction OF the
cotton acreage. One writer de-
clares that the southern farmer is
rolling in wealth." while Clarence
Ouseley, assistant secretary of Agri-
culture comes to his defense with
the statement that the probable over
production Of 100000 or so bales,
added to a present surplus of $780,
600, will inflict huge losses on the
industry. Foreign demand though
promising, is not expected to revive
quickly enough to provide a market
for the surplus. The cotton goods
situation has improved. Meantime
quotations on raw cotton have
touched new high spots. despite re-
ported consumption during March of
$4,000 bales, against $4,000 last
year. Exports increased nearly
zoo 900 bales, reaching $4,000. The
number of active spindles was only
slightly less than a year ago.
HtDESS-ActiVe buying and firm
ness distinguish the hide market.
Foreign quantities, especially Eng
land, are taking leather ia large
quantities. The domestic trade has
shown increasing interest. One lead
ing shoe manufacturer reports diff
fculty in finding hides enough for
bare requirements. and SCOTS at the
idea of accumulated stores any
where.
The pease terms have caused lit
tie enthusiasm In London financial
circles. which are dull apart from
speculative features such as oil.
Canadian industrials have advanced.
Traders see in this a defining of
values preparatory to active buying
Copper producers do not foresee
great Improvement in the red metal
until building actually starts through
out the country. The upward move
ment will be well sustained, they
argue. Certain interests hint at 1Sc
copper within the year, and 26c cop
per within two years.
Stocks of wool in government
hands have dwindled to $4,000, 900
lbs. on March %.
