NEW YORK, March 2s.-The fur
ther decline on the stock exchange
during the last week has signif1ed
two things: First, that the business
community three months ago took
an altogether too sanguine view of
the outlook; second, that specula-
ton under the momentum Of she
early Winter advance was much
overdone.
The principal point to consider at
the present time is how far these
mistakes have been rectified. Look
ing back over the price list one sees
that in a large part of the market
everything that was gained between
December 1 and March l has been
lost More than this, there are a lot
of stocks which within the last day
or two have been selling where they
were at the beginning of November.
In other words, the post-e1ection
rise has been to a large extent un-
done.
Street Was OversanEuine.
Nobody ought to take the position
that business conditions are unfa-
vorable, for they are not. Simply,
they are not up to expectations. A
lot was said about railway earnings.
and how in view of the record break
ing tonnage figures, they were going
to make an extraordinary showing.
AS it turns out, the February results
have not been good, and with all al
lowance for the very large revenues
in 1924, with which comparison has
to be made, the outcome is below ex-
pectations.
Industrial production has fallen off,
but this is not the thing Of most i'm
portance. The big development IS the
failure in most lines Of manufacture
to obtain better prices and thereby
offset higher costs of labor and
materials. Dun's review makes the
statement in it's latest summary that
reports Of narrow profit margins
continue"
Pig iron from time immemorial has
been considered an index of trade, and
the Cleveland Iron Review has made
the statement during the last week
that "1ower pig iron prices are the
general rule" Instead of the increase
in iron and steel prices reckoned
upon at the start OF the year the drift
is consistently downward. The COM
posite on IA representative iron and
steel products is given as $4o.33 a ton,
against s40.53 a week ago and $40.S3
two weeks ago.
German Competition a Factor.
The copper metal has completely
disappointed anticipatfons. 1t was
quoted at the end of the week below
IA cents a pound as against the re-
cent high Of 1915 cents. Scarcely
anybody is talking nowadays about
the Dawes plan and what it is going
to do for the helping out Of Ameri-
can foreign trade. Must more to the
point are the statements being made that
low-cost German goods are coming
into competition with the high-cost
/ A As "a
ANTI dumping clause Of the tariff
law is being invoked, and that
American producers are turning to
washington for more relief under the
protective system.
These are all developments which

have made the industrial position look
different from what IL was three and
four months ago. OF more conse-
quence still is the tremendous break
in farm prices. 1t is not of so much
consequence that May wheat, repre-
nting the demand and supply for
the 1924 harvest, should have shot up
from around $3.50 a bushel and then
lost most Of it's rise. for the farmer
previous to these fluctuations had
sold over so per cent of his crop. But
1t is quite vital matter that the
wheat options representing 1925
should have come off from their tops
% to 80 cents 5ushel. and that corn
and other grains should have lost
correspondipgly. All this suggests a
lower agricultural buying power than
that which was contemplated in the
markets Of the early Winter.
Speculative Wave Slows Down.
In this synopsis of the changes in
business conditions one sees the prin-
cipal explanation why the Wall street
market of March is in & different
frame of mind from that of December
and January. The second reason,
hardly less to be considered, has been
the necessity of clearing away the alb
surdities Of the Winters speculation
for the rise. The opinion may be ven
tured that this corrective process is
pretty far advanced, If indeed, it is
not complete.
Reverting to the industrial situa-
tion, the facts are that it has fallen
short by a good deal OF the more en- :
thusiastic predictions made at the
outset of the year. Yet It is not like
1928. with its overbuying at abnor-
mally high prices, and it is still fur
| ther away from the infiationary war
years. Therefore 1t is foolish to talk
| about the recent decline on the stock
| exchange as If 1t portended a season
OF depression.
French Securities Lower.
One of the features OF the week
past has been the decline In French
securities dealt in on q dollar basis ir,
| the American market. This has not
| been due to the threat Of new
issues, which would involve fresh
competition. II comedies with a new
high record for the French paper note
currency. Quite possibly 1t also re-
| fleets misgivings regarding the as
surances which official France has
| made as to the ability to strike a
budget balance. The French franc
has not gone down, but rather has
recovered, yet the dispassionate view
of this occurrence is that resources
are available at the Bank Of France
to support the paper unit, and that
these are being used, regardless of
natural conditions.
New Burden on Market.
The Federal Reserve banks have
beer selling freely out Of their hold =
ings of Government securities. In
doing SO they have thrown an addi-
tional burden upon the market, and
this has shown In the moderate ad-
vance of money rates. The SUPPOSE
tion Is that this is an alternative
measure to a further Increase In off,
cial discounts. At all events. it is one
of the factors which has exercised a
restraint upon the previous specu-
lation in stocks and grain.

MEMORABLE WEEK
IN GRAIN TRADE
Setbacks in Wheat and Corn
Prices Have Been Very
Far Reaching.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press-
CHICAGO, March 2s.-Severe set
backs in price both for wheat and
corn have made this week memorable
in the grain trade. Much of the sell
ing that carried values down was
ascribed to uncertainty over the out
come OF Government inquiries rela-
tive 20 unprecedented big market
fluctuations of late. Compared with
q week ago, wheat this morning was
IL to IL lower. corn, Tx to 8h off
oats showing is to Q decline, and
provisions at losses ranging from so
to 1.42.
U. s. Inquiry Worries Traders.
Sharpest breaks in the price of
wheat came when the week was
drawing to a close and reports were
prevalent that drastic Federal meas
ures against any abuses in grain
marketing transactions were near at
hand. Trade nervousness at one
stage grew to such a pitch that the
May delivery of wheat dropped in
value So a bushe1 from figures cur
rent a couple of hours before. Indi-
cations of wet weather likely to af-
ford relief from drought in the South
west and West tended further to
scare buyers out of the wheat pit
Besides, throughout most of the week
the export demand for wheat showed
a decided tendency to lag.
Moro Corn for sale.
Acute weakness Of the corn market
was largely due to the fact that the
corn visible supply had increased to a
notable extent, although corn receipts
of late had been light. Furthermore,
Eastern shipping call for corn kept
surprisingly slow, and despite the near
ness Of Lake shipments. numerous pre-
dictions were heard that burdensome
amount of corn might be handed over
to holders of May contracts here. A big
movement of corn from Kansas City
to Chicago was an additional depressing
influence.
Sympathy with corn and wheat eased
down the oats market.
Provisions fell with grain and hogs.
