Commodity Price
Changes for Week

prices during the week
ending March 8 again moved upward,
establishing a new high. Individual
price changes, however, were mixed,
and review of IA individual groups
shows five at higher levels, while five
declined. -Four groups remained the
same as in the previous week. AS in
past weeks. the principal price strength
was confined to two groups-namely,
live stock and vegetable oils.
Industrial prices recorded the third
consecutive decline, although in each
case the decline was extremely small
Preliminary figures pertaining to in
dustrial activity indicate sidewise
trend rather than any disposition to
move upward or downward.
Farm Prices Down.
Agricultural prices were also lower,
representing the second consecutive
decline for the month. The index is
now at the lowest point since early
October. Price declines predominated,
as lower quotations were recorded for
wheat, corn oats. barley. rye. cotton,
f1axseed and butter. Price strength
was confined to three items-rice,
beans and eggs.
Live stock prices successfully ad-
vanced to new high, rejecting higher
quotations for hogs and sheep. Cattle,
however, did not reach new high
ground, but declined moderately from
the previous week.
Paint materials recorded Substan-
tial increase under the leadership Of
price strength in linseed oil, roSin and
turpentine, as well as white lead.
Shellac was the only item that de-
clined.
Fine textiles reached q new low for
the year and also ruled under the
minimum recorded in 1884. During
the week lower prices we're noted for
cotton, silk and worsted yarns.
Coarse textiles also lost ground, due
entirely to burlap, the spot price break
ing under the Scent level.
Vegetable Oils Soar.
Vegetable oils reached a new high
of 1876, which compares with an in
dex of 53.3 a year ago. Although
cottonseed oil recorded some weak
ness, higher pric levels were noted
in coconut, corn. linseed, chinawood,
palm and soya bean oils.
Most important price changes In the

NEW YORK, March 9.-With the
exception of steadineSs in United
States Government obligations, the
bond market idled away its short ses-
sion today without getting anywhere.
Investment circles were cheered at
the lack of pressure in the Government
list, and this lent encouragement to
some loans in the industrial and util-
ity section, which showed fractional
improvement under light demand.
Most of the Treasury issues were 2-32
to 8-32 higher at the close and nearly
that much improvement was shown by
Liberties and indirect obligations.
The persistent downward trend in
railroad securities was halted, tempo
tarily at least, but there was little
enthusiasm for accumulating these
bonds, except in isolated cases. Penn
sylvania general 4l2s were q higher
at 1865, Erie SIS gained p at 59l2 and
New York Central 5s were Il higher
at SAP. Declines were shown by
Southern Railway As, Missouri Pacific
IS and Northern Pacific As.
In other divisions the best showing
was made by utilities. North Ameri-
can IS gained 1l2 points at 88, Con-
solidated Gas 5l2s were "a higher at
1861 and moderate improvement was
shown by Federal Light G. Traction IS
and Laclede Gas SIS. Among hand
full of industrials improving were
United Drug SIS and Youngstown Tube
SIS. The Associated Press averages OIL
Of point higher to OIL of point
lower.
The foreign section was quiet and
without feature. Some improvement
occurred in British Dominions bonds.

CHICAGO, March 9.-To a notable
degree weakness that developed in
grain markets today resulted from
bearish action of securities and cotton,
especially cotton.
Scattered liquidating sales were a
feature in all the grain pits. On the
who'll, trade sentiment was more pes
siHistic than has recently been the
case.
Wheat closed unsettled, 1s-7s net
lower, May. 951 512-5s; corn, unchanged
to rs down, May, 8l-811s; oats,
1s-l2 off, and provisions showing to
25 cents decline.
