NEW BUSINESS IS WORKED Trices Xovr on Shipping Parity With Western Tidewater Points Coast Has Been Declining, While East Has Gained Strength. Wheat business with the Enst has been resumed After a .lull for several weeks. The . Eastern cash markets have become- very strong with sharp advancea yesterday In the face of a decline In options at Chicago. Cash wheat Is now at a point In the East ern milling centers where business could ba worked direct from tidewater points here. The markets at this end have been sag-Rime-. because of the lack of Coast demand, while prices tn the East have been moving the other way. This tendency was continued yesterday at' the local exchange, all wheat bids being a cent lower than on Monday. There was not much Interest In the coarse grains, but oats and barley bids were raised 25 to 60 cents. Barley Is firming up again In California, and this Is Influencing other Xeed. The Liverpool grain cable said: "Arrivals tn the United Kingdom are In excess of tha reduced consumptive requirements. At the moment the wheat market, with restricted trading, moves around the price- that Is re garded as a fair war level, and news of all descriptions Is without Influence." Broomhall says of the foreign crop and up ply situation: It is becoming Increasingly evident that supplies for the United Kingdom are liberal for the remainder of the season. Export purchases have been liberal and those are coming forward In larger quantities than was expected. India. Australia and Amer ica etlll hold good reserves. France Weather Is better and crop condi tions have generally Improved. Acreage shows a material decrease and general out look under last year. . Import needs Impor tant, as stocks light everywhere Italy Weather continues dry and cool. Labor Is scarce and crop prospects not fa vorable.

Russia Winter wheat and Winter rye are well spoken of. Weather is now mild, with plenty of sunshine. Private advices report general improvement In crop prospects. In terior reserves are moderate and movements limited. There la nothing arriving to north porta opening of navigation, and therefore It Is anticipated that Spring shipments will be light. All ports are now Ice free. Argentina All reports speak favorably of agricultural outlook, and expect Increased acreage to wheat and oats. Australia Weather conditions are not fa vorable for seeding. New South Wales too much rain and other states too little. June 1 practically ends seed time, and there is much of the area still unseeded Our Mel bourne agent reports prospects about nor mal.

OPERATORS MORE CAUTIOUS Steel Closes ,at Fractional Net Gain. Bonds) Are Inclined to Droop. Stlffer Rates in Time Money Market. KETy" YORK, June 12. Trading proceeded with greater caution today, a logical result of the latest factors In the general financial situation. Foremost among these were the stlffer money rates. Call loans didn't rise to their maximum of the previous day, rul ing between 2hb and 4 per cent, but time accommodatlona hardened half of 1 per cent for moat periods. The more conservative attitude maintained by local 'banks In accepting collateral for loana and the new minimum of 23.60 for Rdsslan exohanKe were among the other incidents that served to take the keen edgv off bullish enthusiasm. These were neutral ized in part by a more hoperui reeling re garding the outcome of the liberty loan. Prices were uncertain at the outset, but became firmer almost Immediately, only to fall back before the end of the first hour. At midday another rally was In order, the movement attaining wider proportlona on the strength of rails. Transcontinental, grangers, coalers and minor Western and Southwestern issues figured among the active rails at extreme gains cl 1 to 24 points. Pacific Mall featured the steamship shares at a further advance of 2 points. Dealings dwindled on the rebound, the rise evidently falling to evoke outside In terest. Best quotations were made In the final hour, but the movement waa again suo Ject to profit taking at that stage. United States Steel, which fell to 129H on the liberal offerings of the forneoon, rallied to l:U't and closed at 130. a -net gain of "4 of a point. Bethlehem new stock and Lacakawanna Steel made extreme gains of IV to 8 points. Industrial Alcohol and United Cigar Stores were among the atrongest issues at the finish, the former making up much of yesterday's severe decline. Motors, oils and sugars were backward throughout the ses sion. Total sales, 775,000 shares. Bonds were Inclined to drop, pacifies show ing some Irregularity with low-priced con vertibles. Total sales, par value, $2,450,000. United States bonds were unchanged on call, but the coupon 8s fell per cent on a single sale. CLOSING STOCK: QUOTATIONS. Closing Bales. High.
