FAILURE OF BILL
LOWERS STOCKS
Decline in N. Y. Market as
Deficiency Bill Dies
with Congress.
by BRoADAN WALL.

New York. March 4.-Failure OF Con-
gress to pass the Deficiency Bill. car
rying with 1t a railway revolving fund
of s75o.ooo,ooo. unsettled the stock mar
ket today and at one time resulted IN
declines Of from to points in the
most active issues. At the opening
strength prevailed. but around mid
day announcement of the adjournment
of Congress without taking action on
the Deficiency Bill resulted In heavy
offerings of all classes of issues
RAILWAY shares were foremost in the
downward movement, declines in the
most active Of this group amounting
TO to 3 points. Reading. which
has recently been purchased by strong
banking interests. broke nearly 4
points. Industrial shares. in which
pools have been very active. also ex-
perienced severe declines. This was
particularly true of Kelly Springfield
tire which at one time showed a loss
of more than five points.
Brokers reported that there were
very few buying orders when the
general market STARTED to sag and
this resulted in the precIpitate de-
cline. The public continues to hold
aloof so that the purchases which
were made early in the afternoon
were largely for the account OF
shorts. The recovery which was
started by short covering continued
during the remainder of the after
noon and the most active shares re-
gained most OF their early losses in
most instances and closed with net
gains for the day.
American Hide and Leather con-
tinued in urgent demand particular
ly for the count Of shorts who sold
the stock at much lower prices.
American Woolen was one OF tho
bright spots in the list and closed
with a net gain of more than seven
points on heavy turnover

CHICAGO GRAIN.
by JOS. +. PRITCHARD.

Chicago, March 4.-Predictions that British
interests would be forced to take corn from
the United States because Of inability to secure
Argentine deliveries were borne ont today with
announcement thst corn for the United King
dom had been bought and that 40.coO bushels
cleared American ports for England. 1t looks
as though corn Of South America is cut Of
the running a competitor.
Cash corn advanced lc to SC and futures &c
L. &c Receipts continue light. Only q .l95
bushels of contract corn is held in Chicago.
There il much on which to sell under present
conditions and little on which t. buy. Those
who put out short lines, knowing conditions
surrounding corn, should not look for sympathy
in event of sharp advances which are likely
to be seen.
Oats showed strength and there were advances
Of Ec to SC. Leading elevator interests were
buying, but there was no particular increase in
demand. Estimates continue to favor decline
in values as there was no heavy shipping
demand.
Hog products market was irregular. Prices
were higher with hogs at the opening. but on
the advances established pig paekes supplied
all demands for either meat or lard. and prices
declined. Fixing Of March hog prices still is
awaited by the trade.
