WHEAT FUTURES
HOLDING FIRM
Tuesdays Gain Extended
By AS Much As Half
Cent Per Bushel

CHICAGO, March 4.-CP-Wheat
futures prices were firm at the
opening today, extending yesterdays
gain as much as another half cent,
but around midsession the follow UP
demand disappeared and prices
weakened in sympathy with the
trend in securities.
Rye led the retreat and at the
close all commodities on the board
of trade except lard were at or frac-
tionally lower than Tuesdays clos
ing levels. Wheat closed unchanged
to u cent lower than yesterday,
May s1.291s. July s1.307sA; corn
unchanged to Is off, May S7%-h:
July 5s-A; oats Il to % lower, soy
beans 1s to "a down; rye 4 to u
lower and lard 212 to cents higher.
Trade interest was at low ebb
and the turnover was light. The
majority of traders seemed content
to take position on the sidelines
pending developments in the contest
between the President and members
Of the farm bloc over pending legis-
lation affecting the relationship be-
tween market prices and parity for
agricultural products.

NEW YORK, Mar. 4.0RNEa'
eerness Of market followers to col
iect the small profits ACQUIRING
from the previous days rise
worked against stock prices today.
There was a slow retreat after
an irregularly higher opening. Al
the best rails, rubbers and falr
number of industrial specialtles
were ahead fractions to point or
so Declines widened in the later
dealings and with fe exceptions
the leaders were off fractions to
more than point at the finish.
Serving at the same time to
quicken the flow of profit selling
and restrain fresh buying were
suggestions that the British bomb
ing of industrial centers near Paris
might induce France to become
an active ally of the Axis powers.
The sill critical plight OF Java
and statistical surveys with bear
ish interpretations of the effecs
of the Treasury's tax proposals as
they would apply to some OF the
larger corporations added further
drab touches to the speculative
background.
The Associated Press 60-stock
composite recorded net decline
of 2 of point at 35.8. Transac-
tions again were at crawling
pace and totaled 375,670 shares
compared with yesterdays 4O9, l2O.
Failure of the rails to hold their
early advantage seemed to be TAX
en- as an indication Of weakness
in the markets technical position.
Reflection on the Interstate Com
merce commission freight rate

sible explanation for the carriers
disappointing action. Traffic cir
cles pointed out that whereas the
roads granted the recent wage in

freight tariff rise was to be effec-

NEW YORK COTTON

NEW YORK, March A. tP -
Hedge selling forced cotton futures
prices SO to Is cents a bale lower
today, most of the selling coming
from interests believed to have made
purchases of Commodity Credit corn
cotton during February.
Buyers were scarce, principal sup
port coming from trade and outside
interests. although some will pur-
chases were noted early in the ses-
sion, at one time lifting prices above
yesterdays finish.
The mill buying, some observers
said, seemed to stem from a belief
that the 1912 crop would fall short
of bumper" proportions because of
a lack of sufficient farm labor, fer
tilizer and machinery.
While trade circles watched
Washington for developments In re-
gard to government sales of farm
commodities. there were no reports
that affected prices noticeably.
Hedge sales against Commodity
Credit corp. cotton were estimated
between 10000 and 25, 900 bales.
