FEDERAL LAND IS
ARE SELLING WELL

NEW YORK. April 1S.-The $4,000,
600 Federal Land Bank per cent
bonds offered to the public at par
and accrued interest were reported to
be going well today. These bonds
rank next to Libertys in point of
security. The collateral back of them
consists of an equal amount of U. s.
government bonds and first mort
cages on farm lands not exceeding
so per cent of the value of the land
and 30 per cent of the value of per-
manent improvements.
Another new syndicate operation
started today was the Offering of
$4,O0o000 Marland Oil Company ten
year 8 per cent sinking fund gold
bonds. This is part of an author,
jsed issue of s7.000.0o0. The Marland
Oil owns nearly all the capital stock
of the Marland Refining Company and
the Kay County Gas Company. both
Oklahoma concerns. and through the
Kay County Company a large ma
iority also of the capital stock of the
Marland Oil Company of Mexico.
Mexican Bonds Wanted.
The general bond market had a dull
day of 1t, but there were one or two
features of note. Among these espe-
cially were the Mexican government
bonds. which were very active. with
the SIS up over a point to 49A and
the As up nearly point to 37k. Both
these represent a new high record.
Later in the day there was a partial
reaction.
The talk that Mexico is about to re-
sumo interest payments on its exter-
nal debt is thought to be rather prem
ature, but as a result OF the confer
ences on the Mexican situation, which
are to start at Washington this week,
II ia considered probable that resump-
ton of such payments will be dis
cussed and light thrown upon the date
at which it may be expected.
This is the motive back of the five
point advance in the Mexican govern
ments since the middle of last week.
Burlington A. Open Higher.
Nothing further was said about
the Burlington refunding plan and
when it was likely to be brought out.
The Burlington joint IS reached new
high at 99A cash, later on recedins
Railway issues were pretty gener-
ally inclined to reverse their ten
dency In the early part OF last week.
before the labor board handed down
its decision.

changed. japanese Ans made . new

STOCKS ARE EASIER
AND VERY QUIET
Some Strength in Oils.
Traders Waiting for
Developments.
BY STUART p. WEST.

NEW YORK. April 1S.-The recov-
cry which followed the decision of
the Railway Labor Board and the re-
lease in the strike crisis abroad did
not continue in the markets today.
Stocks opened about where they left
off saturday. Some further advances
occurred here and there. as in some
of the oils. which were helped by
the news that the turn had come in
the oil trade and that the price of
Pennsylvania crude had risen 25
cents a barrel.
But the market generally showed
no inclination to resume it's advance,
ana seeing this, the active trading ell
ement reversed it's position and began
experimenting again in moderate
way on the short side
Pullman stock had another sharp
break on the talk that the dividend
might be reduced at the meeting next
Thursday. Republic Steel and Cruel
pie were driven down on q revival of
last weeks gossip about cutting the
dividends in their case, too.
In the rails. although there was no
lessening of the better feeling brought
about by the action of the labor board,
the view was reflected that it would
be well to await DEVELOPMENTS and
see how the conferences between the
carriers and their employees were GO
ing to work out
In consequence. railway stocks.
which had been strong on Friday
and Saturday, were inclined to react,
with the exception of one or two OF
the low-priced non-diyidend payers.
Waiting for News.
The financial community was await.
ing some fresh incentive. in the mean
tlme preserving an undercurrent Of
optimism. There will be few more
hot
their dividends. There will be a
number OF very unfavorable indus
trial reports for the first quarter Of
the year.
The RI March traffic figure. on the
railroads will make another unfavor-
able showing. and it will not be until
the returns for the current month are
at hand that much of an improve
ment will be shown.
But these remaining items Of bad
news have been pretty well taken
into the reckoning. Their influence
may be exerted to keep the market
down and restraint. but so far as anv
more positive effect is concerned.
tnese occurrences have doubtless
been discounted, except perhaps In
'he STOCK Immediately affected.
March Trade Reports.
The March statistics on the foreign
trade give a still more startling pic
u
preston and price slump than did
those for any of the previous months.
In March. 1920. exports of merchan-
disc stood at 100000. .ooo-this was
close to the peak of the inflated period.
In March. 1921, the export total
shrank to $3s4.0oo. .o00-a most ex-
traordinary measure of the defiation
as it had applied to our commerce.
with other countries
Imports have fallen off for the
same reason. but TO no such extent,
They are $524,00 900 for the month
last year and s252.O0O,ooo for the
month this year. The decrease in
dne trade balance from nearly $780,
uoo.oo9 TO s132 100000 throws good
deal of light upon the recent firm
ness in the exchanges
Evidently the shrnkagn in Aincri-

CHICAGO. April 1s.-Fear that dam
age to the new crop had been done by
low temperatures led to upturns to-
day IN wheat prices. Buying, how
ever, lacked volume. and with warmer
| weather in prospect an increase of
selling pressure soon took place.
Sellers contended that crop damage
would prove to be of only a minor
sort. Opening prices, which ranged
from y to cents higher, with May
1.2s to 1.30 and July 1.09h to l10.
were followed by a material setback
and then something of a rally.
Corn hardened with wheat, but later
was inclined to sag. After opening
y to u higher. including July at SO
to 62k. the market reacted to slightly
below Saturdays finish.
Oats paralleled the action of corn,
starting unchanged to y higher. July
3SA y to S9h, and later easing down.
Higher quotations on hogs gave
some firmness to provisions.
