WHEAT VALUES
 SHOW DECLINES
Prices Ease Off On Fav, orable Seeding And
 Growing Conditions

CHICAGO, April Slowing largely to favorable conditions both for seeding and growth, wheat today eased down in price. The market closed unsettled at 1h to 3sc net decline, May $1.021s to 1.021h @1.O2A and July, $1.03es to 1.O3A. Corn finished $@2 to Ac off with oats showing 4 to ssc loss, and provisions varying from Dc setback to a like advance.
 It was generally recognized by wheat traders that with continued suspicious weather a larger crop than last year was not improbable, notwithstanding that the 1924 acreage is smaller. Be- sides, there was no evidence of any export demand of consequence. Selling, however, lacked volume except from the northwest where seeding appeared to he making progress. On the other hand, dearth of buying kept the market de- void of important rallies, primary cleo tion activities doing q good deal to cur tail business. The best upturn came at the last, and resulted almost entirely from squaring accounts on, the part of small previous sellers.
 Predictions of larger receipts of corn after sowing of oats is complete led to persistent scattered selling of corn. Moreover, eastern demand for corn was again slow, and reports were current that gluten and other manufactured feeds were being heavily substituted for corn. Af ..FOats were depressed by adyiees, that seeding was likely to be finished at some Illinois points within few days. Receipts of oats showed a decided fall ing off.
 Provisions averaged little lower re flecting weakness vf hog values and of grain.

STOCK MARKET
 IS WEAK AFFAIR
Independent Strength Is Shown In Some
 Spots, However

NEW YORK, April S.-Renewal of professional selling pressure brought about further reaction in today's stock market, although independent strength was shown by wide variety of issues, the days transactions totalling only about 100000 shares.
 Wall streets speculative community apparently devoted the major part of it's attention to the cotton market, in which futures were bid up 70 to ITO points on running-in of the short in- terest.
 Early selling in the stock market centered principally in the industrial list, U. $. Steel common touching new low on the movement at 9SH and new low records being established by Kelly Springfield. Vanadium Steel, Willys Overland preferred, and several other issues.
 :, .- Rails continued their upward move ment under the leadership of Norfolk and Western, which established a new 1924 high at 1922, until just before the close, when it broke to 127%. This break unsettled the rest of the list, Missouri Pacific preferred, which had established new top at 42h, drop ping back to fl, and humber of others slipping point or more. Southern Pacific closed 1% lower at S9A, and Northern Pacific dropped from '53b to 51h despite the publication of the annual report showing the $5 dividend fully earned in 1923 with a small mar gin to spare.
 News that the new revenue bill had been ordered reported favorably to the senate today by the finance committee was responsible for the early after noon recovery in a number of the stan dard inddstrials, but they fell back later when heavy selling broke out in the rail group.
 Among the industrials that moved against the current trend, International Harvester, the American Waterworks issues and American Agricultural Chemical preferred were the most prom inent. Standard Milling, making its first appearance in several weeks, broke 201a points. Oils held relatively steady. Marland closing about a point higher and Superior touching a new 1924 top.
 Call money opened at per cent and then dropped to AZ, where it closed. Time money and commercial paper markets were quiet with the bulk of the business being transacted at Az per cent.
 Foreign exchanges maintained a firm tone. Demand sterling ruled about a cent higher at $4.333s, and French francs climbed about 10 points to around 5.S6 cents. South American exchanges were slightly reactionary.
 Total stock sales. 572,OOO shares.
 Twenty industrials averaged 93.43 net loss, 20.
 High 1924, 101.24; low, 93.OS.
 Twenty railroads averaged S501 net loss, .63.

COTTON ENTERS NEW HIGH GROUND.
May Sells Up To 31.25, An Advance Of 180
 Points

NEW YORK. April S.-Yesterday' s reactions not only were recovered, but the cotton market advanced into new high ground for the movement on old crop months today. May sold up to 31 .25c, an advance of 1S0 points from Mondays closing quotation and 1S7 points from the low level of the morn ing. May closed at 31.10c with the general market barely steady at net advances of Q to .165 points.
 The opening was unchanged to 21 points lower, under continuation of yes terday's realizing or selling for reac- ton. This was encouraged by a favor able weather map, and rather an easier futures market in Liverpool, but soon as the initial offerings had been ab- sorbed, prices turned upward on bullish spot advices and reports that there had been further sales of about 5000 bales for export out of the local stock. Gov ering by near month shorts became more urgent and excited as prices worked upward without meeting an increased supply of contracts, and July sold at 2999c, or TO points net higher.
 Active new crop months sold S1' to 101 points net higher and the close was about 10 to 20 points off from the best under realizing.
 Exports today, 9,912, making 4,751,- $50 so far this season. Port receipts, 11,042. United States port stocks, 597,- 454.

NEW ORLEANs CoTTnN

NEW ORLEANS, April s.--After a rather tame opening the cotton market de- turn, featured by frenzied stampede of the shorts in near months who had to com pete with outside spectators in endeay- bring to buy back their contracts. May, vanced in the early afternoon to 31.41c, 9 gain of 200 points from the low, and fur ther trading for the rise in that month was stopped under the rule limiting fluc- tuatfons to 200 points in single day. July advanced from 27.95 O 29.90c, and at the highest was within only points of the limit with a gain of 195 points. New crop months did not develop the same strength as the near positions. October advanced from 24.02c to 25.25c, a gain of 123 points. s All active months eased off moderately in the final trading on real- izing, and the lose showed net gains for the day of 165 to 1s0 points on old crop months and s1 to s5 on new crops
 At the start cables were rather 1ndff- ferent and the weather map was dry, hence the opening was tame. but prices were sustained by the large spot sales in Liverpool. An official forecast for un- settled weather in the belt started shorts ticatly continuous with only a small and short reaction from time to time. The upward swing was kept in motion by ex- tremely bullsh spot news, particularly an active demand for export, stimulating dry goods advices with converters reporting the largest orders in many months, a favor que TeporS tO tHt senate or the tdX re- duction bill with the Mellon features re- stored and expectation of highly favor able report from the Dawes commission on the separations problem.
 The, reported active demand for spots and the increasing demand for goods was the cause for the final uprush of prices in the afternoon when the limit was reach ed on May and almost touched by July The alarm of the shorts in the near months was due to the fact that all the available stock fo tenderable cotton is now in the hands of a few strong firms, and there is little cotton to be counted on in southern markets.
