 Absence of selling pressure character ized the corn market from the beginning today. Wire service had been crippled by the tornado. and with business confined almost entirely to Chicago traders, the prevailing spirit was one of caution. 1r view of the small supplies here, the fact that receipts this morning gave no indica- ton of any important increase of the crop movement tended noticeably to strengthen values. So. too, did con tinued export demand for rye and wheat but after midday the bears made con- siderable capital out of reports that a big oats industry had reduced it's output 50 per cent. owing to lack of export call for it's product Oats were depressed by stoppage of European industry. as well as by shipping preference given to corn
 At first provisions showed strength in connection with a stock yard employees strike that threatened to interrupt packing house work. Later, though, values were left almost entirely without support

New Orleans Cotton


 New Orleans, March 2e.lThe opening in cotton was higher today and the ad- vance persisted throughout the session, highest prices being reached toward the end when the active months were 53 to 69 points over last weeks final quotations.
 The close was 36 to 69 joints higher, net for the day Unfayorable weather and a continued large export movement were mainly responsible for the demand. Shorts were disposed to cover and an important new demand arose for long account
 The storms in the belt over Sunday and the heavy rains east of the Mississippi river caused an accumulation of buying orders on the opening and in the early trading advances of about half cent a pound were scored Realizing caused small reaction from the advance but each recession seemed to tempt buyers Into the market.
 Bullish sentiment was constantly stimu- lated by general complaint of lack of labor, some sections of the belt claim ing that much land would lie idle be- cause of the want of hands to work it. The export movement for the day or 55a2 bales caused much comment and no little buying, especially as it was ac- companied by claims that considerable new export business was being done in the crop yet to be planted for shipment from September on.

The hrst or the additional tank ship of the Sinclair Company now building will be delivered in April Others are under construction, and by the end of 1920 the company Will have twenty ships operating between Mexico and other points With the in- creased business in prospect, 1t IS esti- mated the company could easily use twenty more New financing at this tune would enable the company to Immediately proceed with the construction of addl- tionals tankers.
