SCANTY SUPPLIES KEPT UP STRENGTH

Oats Made Small Loss, While Pro- visions Ranged From 7c De- cline to 40c Advance Over
 Tuesday
By AmoeIatsd Prsm

Chicago. March 3.-Sterngth, due chief ly to scantiness of supplies here. contin- ued to manifest itself today in the corn market despite heavy profit taking by longs. The close was nervous at the same as yesterdays finish, to sc higher, with May s1,40A91. 401s, and July s134&q1.Sfs. Oats lost 4 to 7sc. In provisions the out come ranged from 7c decline to 40c ad- vance.
 Although some loosening up of corn of- ferings from the country had taken place as an effect of the recent lie upturn in quotations. the general attitude of rural holders did not appear to have been radi- cally altered. Meanwhile, receipts were meager and the attention of traders was still fixed to a considerable extent on reports of big winter use of farm re- serves. Unfavorable prospects for winter wheat tended also to give bulls an ad- vantage. Traders who have of late been among the most conspicuous buyers, pro fessed to believe. however that reac- tion was now natural and selling pres sure that ensued made advances difficult to hold Nevertheless March touched the highest point this season.
 Gossip that Canadian oats would here after absorb all export demand had a depressing influence on the oats market.
 Provisions were weakened by current estimates of heavy western stocks, but rallied later. owing to strength in corn and hogs.

 New Orleans. March 3.-Pronounced buying pressure was felt by the cotton market today, and it lifted prices ma terially, following small declines around the opening.

 Charles H. Habin. head of the Guaranty Trust Company. and di- rector of numerous important cor porations, was quoted in the street today as saying that pessimism at this time is not justified. His re- marks supplied the first note of op- timism that the district has heard in quite while. Fundamentally, economic conditions in this country are sound,' said the banker, and in the ordinary course of events should remain so. While there Is unquestionably abundant reason for caution of coudse, there is no sound Justification for pessimism. The United States is the most sol vent and the greatest going con cern in the world or the worlds history. The credit situation, to be sure, is matter of concern, and during March will probably become more acute as a consequence of sew eral factors. These include the re- turn of the railroad which will ne- cessitate the arrangement for vast amount of financing, maturity of large volume of mortgages, especially farm mortgages, pay ment of income and excess profits taxes, financing of spring building projects and spring agricultural needs for capital and credit. But 1t is essential in considering the fis- cal problem that we should not lose sight of the economic background against which it is thrown into high relief for the time being. So long as that background remains safe and sound. there is no real oc- casion to feel alarmed or even ner- vous about the immediate future

COVERING IN OLD
 CROP MONTHS WAS CAUSE OF A RISE
General Market Closed Steady at a Net Advance of 9 to 40 Points Over
 Tuesdays Finals
By Askeelated Press

New York, March S.-There was contin-
 uing cf the covering movement in old crop
 months in tne cotton market today, which
 sent March contracts into new high ground for the season. while May made a new high price for the present nfove- ment. The latter delivery sold at S5 s6c or
 4o points above last nights closing price.
 and closed at s .ssc. with tne general mar
 ket closing steady at a net advance of 6 to 40 points.
 The marke. showed some nervousness and uncertainty at the start, owing to lower 1iverp pol cables. The opening was
 s points higher on January. but generally IS to p points lower, which was by no
 means a response to the English break, and consequently led to considerable sell
 ing here on srbitrage account. These of
 ferings sent tfe active months about 10 to 24 poiuts net lower right after the call.
 but were absorbed around s5 32c for Sfay
 and so.30c for July. The market then
 turned firtncr on renewed covering and later in the day there appeared to be in- creasing nervousness on the part of May and July shorts owing to the sustained strength of sne March position and the apparent failure of recent advances to draw shipments here from the south. March sold up to ss. esc or s1 points het higher, while July advanced to g .96c or 45 points above last nights closing ng- ures
 Later dsliveries were relatively qiffet, but responded partially to the near mony strength, selling 15 to IS points net higher. The reporteL receipt of 400 bales of cotton from Liverpool at Galveston was not considered q market factor, as 1t has been
 known since the middle of last month
 that small amount of cotton would be
 returned because of the break in ex-
 change during the first part of Feb ruary.
 Private cables said the early Liverpool
 buying, but later weakened under Man chester selling of now crop positions.
