COVERING HAIB
 EARLY DECLINES
Market Closes Steady At Net Advances Of 13 To 37
 Points.

NEW YORK, March 8.--A further decline in the cotton market during to- days early trading was checked by covering at 270sc for July contracts, or within points of the low levels touched on the break of Monday. Ral- lies followed with July selling. up to 27 .Ssc, and closing at 27.7Sc. The gen eral market closed very steady at net advances of 13 to g points.
 The market opened easy at de- cline of 20 to 52 points, and the active positions showed net losses of e7 to tSZ points shortly after the call, with May declining to 27.67c and October to z4.S5c. There were a good many overnight sell ing orders around the ring brought in by the weakness of yesterday, and probably some fresh selling on relative ly easy. Liverpool cables, the uncer- tainty of the Lancashire labor situa- tion, the continued weakness of foreign exchange and the failure sof weekend reports to show decided improvement in the cotton goods markets. Offerings were absorbed by covering at the de- cline, however, and the market turned upward later in the morning on pros poets for unfavorable weather in the south, reports of a somewhat steadier spot basis and rumors that private authority estimated domestic mill con sumption for May at 500,000 bales. May advanced to 2S.45c and October to 25.4sc making net gains of about r to 36 points. and the close was only a few. points off from the best under realiz- ing. New crop months were relatively steady during the entire day, being in-, evidently, by the talk of de- layed farm work in the southwest and apprehension of further delays owing to unfavorable weather conditions Brokers with western and New Or leans connections were active buyers on the late forenoon rally. :

CORN STRENGTH
 CHIEF FACTOR
SmaIlness Of Arrivals Has Bull- ish Effect On Grain
 Market

CHICAGO, March s.-Corn strength, rather than increase of the import ,dnty on wheat, proved to be the chief price making factor in the grain mar kets today. Arrivals of corn here for the day were the smallest in some weeks, and this circumstance had bullish effect, both on corn and on wheat. and oats as we'll. Corn closed firm k to Mc higher; May, S1hc, with wheat steady at shade lower to hc advance; May, $1.11S@1.11tz, and July, Sl11k to S1.l1Gt.11%; oats, kc to %c up, and provisions showing shade to a7c gain. }'s4 t7re3f N.s,
 Until the corn market began to rel fleet the scarcity of receipts, wheat tended downward in price, traders ap- parently accepting the view that bull had already been discounted, and that the unlooled-for simultaneous. reduc- ton of the tariff on mill feeds was an incentive to sell. Gossip about possible passRge of the McNary-Haughen bill led also to considerable selling. Weak ness of foreign exchange was further bearish influence. On the other hand, scattered reports of damage to winter wheat attracted some notice, and in the last hour the upward swing of the corn market helped wheat to recover com pleteiy the preceding decline.
 In me corn market, Scanttness or re- ceipts and an absence of consignment notices forced industries to bid up values. With previous sellers making haste to change their trade position, sudden bulge in prices ensued, where as earlier there had been ,sagging quo tations as . result of clear cold weather and because of the reduction of the duty on mill feed. Oats were governed by corn.
 Higher prices on hogs gave a lift to the provision market. t'

INTEREST CENTERS
 N FALL OF FRANC
Demand Rate Establishes New
 Low At 3.45 Cents


 NEW YORK, March S.-Chief spec ulative interest in this weeks finan- cial markets centered in the demoral- ization of French exchange, the de- ,mand rate for the franc establishing a record low for all time at 3.45c. This represented a depreciation of approxi- mateIy IT per cent during the week. Belgian francs broke to a new low in sympathy and marked heaviness as or der developed in the British and other continental exchanges. Speculative sell ing, inspired by the unfavorable show ing made in the weekly statement Of the Bank of France, was the primary cause for the further decline.
 Stock prices drifted rather aimlessly within the trading area in which they have been flnctuating for the past three weeks. The averages showed a slight gain above those of a week ago. Bond prices also firmed up slightly. Com modity prices were irregular, cotton dropping to a new low for the year. The wheat market failed to make much of a response to the higher tariff rates. Money held relatively strong.

SHARP CONTRACTION
 w STANDARD OILS
Declines On Curb Due To Pro- r. fessional Activities


 NEW YORK; March S.-Progress of the congressional Investigation was ef- fectiye in causing a sharp contraction in the volume of business in the Standard oil Issues on the curb mar ket during the greater part of the week, and many of the leading stocks in that group moved, within an un- usually marrow range. There was no display of weakness. however, declines that occurred being in nearly all caaes due to supply that came from the, pro fessional element, which was put ont each morning and generally covered before the end of the day. There were several special movements. neverthe- less, among them an advance in Ches- 'brcugh Manufacturing to a new high record, and there was renewed action also of Borne and Scrymser, which had Violent advances at intervals. Prairie aOll and Gas was in special demand, at times making a gain of about 10 points, the buying apparently being based on the prospects for that com pany iresumipg business In Kansas Standard oil of Ohio was another strong featuHe, moving up about 8 points. Some of the independent oil stocks were strong, among them Mur tual Oil.
 A feature of the industrial group was initial trading in Westinghouse new stock. which ranged from 50 to 69h, or about 2 points above the sub scription price. Dubilier Condenser continued its upward movement, mak- ing q new high record on an advance Of 26h. Park and Tilford was strong for a time, advancing more than 3 points, and there was a display of strength in Tobacco Products exports. Motor stocks were heavy.
 In the bond department, Maracaibo Is were prominent selling at loss or 4O points, compared with the last preceding sale made a few weeks as-o Argentine 6s yielded to ls7 following the news of the dissolution of the syndicate. Weakness also was shown in Associated sSimmqns Hardware .6hs.

NEW ORLEANS COTTON

V W
 NEW ORLEANS, March S-The cot ton market experienced quite a sharp recovery from the weakness of yester- day in today,s short session. After opening lower with rather active sell ing on poor LiyeFpool, cables prices eased off until May traded as low as 27.75c and October at 24.39c, oor A and 25 points, respectively, down from the previous close. The market then nal lied well, and near the end May sold at 2S.50c and October at 24.8Sc, or 75 and .49 points above the early low. The close, which was slightly down from the best. showed net gains of 20 to g points on old-crop months and 1T on October. The weakness in Liverpool was the cause of the early decline, and was at tributed to fears that the Lancashire lockout might matsrialize next week and weakness in the French franc, all time. After making an early low of A down from the previous cclose on May and 25 down on October, the market rallied on the very unfavoEable weather conditions shown by the map and private reports of rains in all parts of Texas.
 After recovering practically to the levels of the previous days close, the market developed another reaction A further sinking of the French franc was the principal incentive back of this recession. The constant flood of private reports of rains in north, cen tral and southern Texas and the long distance forecast for a prodracted spell of bad weather caused a sharp rally, in the second hour of taadipg, and prices advanced rapidly untfl May traded 75 points above the early low and October 49 points above.
 The rally was helped by more favor able spot news and better advices from the dry goods market and Fall River. and also by forecast of 50O,- 900 bales consumption during February by American mills from private Washington bureau. Exports for the day were also good. The market closed slightly below the best of the day cont realizing.

MATERIAL ADVANCE{
 SCORED BY WHEAT
Rise Due To Belief Import Duty
 To Be Raised s,s Ii

l, CHICAGO, March s.-Chisfly owing to belief that the import duty on wheat would be raised, the wheat market this, week has scored . material advance in price. Compared with q week ago.. wheat this morning was 1M@1Ac4 to, |1Mc higher, whereas corn was un- changed to Ac lower, and oats Y 0%c to MG1c down. In provisions: there were 1oc to 27c upturns.
 Tonic effects from anticipation that the wheat tariff would be hoisted wers given added force through estimates in- dicating that domestic supplies pron- ised to be far from. burdenspme. Ac-. cording to figures, from q leading au- thority, farm reserve stocks of wheat in this country are the smallest since 1918, and the United states at present has only 94,00O,0O0 bushels available for carry-over and export, an amount already 100000 bushels less man was on hand July 1 last year. Another lac tor strengthening the market was an, estimate that the Dakotas and Minnes sota taken together can furnish no. more wheat than barely sufficient Tor seed requirements of the nprthwest without shipping any wheat away else-, where. ~ :.
 Some crop damage reports from Ilii-, nois and other states east of the Mis- sissippi led to enlarged buying at times in the wheat market, and the. upward tendency of values was further ern- phasized by reports that the 1s24 do- nestle yield Of winter wheat would bs about 545,O00.000 bushels, as against .572, 900, 900 bushels in 1923. On the other hand, the trade was bearfshly affected a good deal of the time by advices that the McNary- -Haugen bill might become a law and perhaps upset the present, marketing system. lfsu. x
 Liberal receipts of corn during the first part of the week acted. as weight on the corn market and on oats.
 Provisions reflected higher quota tions on hogs. \

Net Loss Of Day Is More Than
 ThirtyyOne Points

NEW YORK, March s.-A flood of selling orders again overwhelmed the French franc today, forcing 1t to sell for the first time below 3hc. Establish ment of a new low quotation of S.45Hc represented a net loss of 31A poipts for the day.
