CHICAGO, May 5-An early l.
cent advance which pushed wheat
prices up to new high levels for the
season today was wiped out later be-
cause of heavy profit taking and the
market closed slightly lower than
yesterday.
Fear of further deterioration in
dry sections of the winter wheat
belt coupled with strength in quo
tations abroad inspired the opening
rush to buy but subsequently the
trade received reports of scattered
rains in parts of the Southwest. An
official forecast of unsettled, showery
weather also had a bearish effect.

Assncia ted Press Eina ncial WrireH

NEW YORK, May 5.-Stock mar
ket traders today were unable to find
much inspiration in happenings at
home or abroad and an early feeble
rally gave way before the lightest
kind of selling.
While here and there resistant
spots were in evidence, leaders gen.
orally were fractionally in arrears at
the close.
With the ticker tape barely creep
ing during the greater part of the
proceedings, transfers for the five
hours were under 350,O00 shares, one
of the lowest aggregates for the past
year or so.
Tending to give sentiment mild
lift at the opening was the rather
conciliatory speech of Polish Foreign
Minister Beck, answering the Nazi
| demands on Danzig and the cor
ridor.' Lessening of war tension was
seen in the fact that the speaker left
the family entrance ajar for an
| amicable settlement of the Berlin
Warsaw controversy.
Reports the British government
had agreed to a fiat military al
lance with Russia and France failed
to rejuvenate the market.
The growing menace to industry
Of the soft coal tieup was the
principal fly in the financial oint-
ment. Business news generally
/ lacked stimulation for those trying
! to put finger on trend clues.
Securities at London. Paris and
Amsterdam steadied in the wake OF
the Beck address. but most held
to a sluggish routine.

French Currency Hoarding
Boosts Circulation
By the Associated Press,


NEW YORK, May 5.-French cur
rency circulation jumped to the
highest figure on record during the
week ended April %, bankers here
pointed out yesterday, giving as a
reason the activities of hoarders
combined with month-end require
ments of business.
The statement of the Bank of
France for that week, published
yesterday, showed jump of 1901 :
100000 francs approximately $42,-
426,0OO in circulation to total of
24,665 100000 francs (about So
303, ,622 ,000. This compared with
24,425 100000 francs (S3,297 OOO,-
000), the previous high mark, set
on September 30 at the height of
the Munich crisis.
Hoarding of notes has been usual
in most European countries during
the various crises since the annexa-
ton of Austria to Germany last
year, and circulation of the central
banks has expanded heavily as a
result. One feature has been a de-
mand from abroad for United States
currency, and it was recently esti-
mated that about $4,000, 900 in this
country's paper money had been
shipped abroad during April.
