fering a little more freely, but advices
from domestic territory are practically
unanimous in saying that offerings are
distinctly limited In volume. General
rains and lower temperatures in the West
Would be ee'p preferable. There is sufficient
Improvement in the demand from millers
to overcome a slowing down of the ex-
port business. There Is, also, sufficient
difficulty In buying cash wheat from
ton strong. We believe the deferred de-
livertes must make further recognition of
the light stocks, small movement and
strong premiums for cash wheat.
Corn aud Oats-The seaboard was again
inquiring and taking cash corn. but mar

check the advance temporarily. The Kan
sas City report yesterday noted de-
crease in area OF 10 per cent and there
were private advices from Missouri of
considerable decrease. The features In
corn and oats are the small movement
from the country, the likelihood of con-
siderable decrease in the visible supply
and evidence of a better distributing de-
maud.

GRAIN MARKET
TRADE LIFELESS
Price Fluctuations Irregular
Provisions Unsteady.

CHICAGO, April 23.-Grain prices fuc-
tuated irregularly on the Chicago board
of trade today. There was little life
to the trading and the turnover was
small. Price changes were fractional
with a slight trend toward higher levels,
due to improvement in the export condi-
tions. Provisions were irregular.

In today's market, there was no dupli-
cation of yesterdays activity. Many of
the traders who were long of stocks were
was true Of commission house business.
The fact OF the matter Is that many
people are not inclined to take the pres
ent advance seriously but rather disposed
to regard it as an advance based on
an over-exten sion of the short interest.
The market however gave an excellent
account of itself. At no time was the
pressure sufficiently pronounced to re-
suit in more than moderate recessions
and during the latter part of the session
a fairly good demand again developed,
which again disclosed a scarcity of offer
ings, especially in the rails. The fact
that this coming week very large rail-
road bond issue is to be offered, prob
ably had something to do with the sup
port offered in this group.
The oils, however. appeared to get
most of the popular support, with mo-
tors and rubber shares following.
European news is satisfactory and in
high circles the opinion prevails that
A settlement Of the Preparations con-
troyersy is close at hand. This natural
" is the biggest single proposition that
we have at the present time and its
settlement must of necessity have bene-
ficiaI effect on business and finance
throughout the world.
We continue to feel that a conservative
" optimistic attitude is justified but
purchases should be made during periods
of reactions.
