IJrvidend Davlns rails and stand ard industrials of the steel, equipment, oil and miscellaneous divisions made net gains of two to almost five joints. Sentiment among traders respecting fed eral tax lesislatloh seemed to bo more hopeful. Moderate Increase of production by Inde pendent steel manufacturers in middle western territory accompanied Intimations that the proposed sleel mergers were pro gressing towards consummation. Exchange on Ixindon made a vigorous recovery from last Saturday s reaction The rally, reflected the buoyant tone of the markets at that center. Demand bills on London at $4.36 were 3 He over the recent low. and advances of 4 to 11 points In the allied exchanges were overshadowed by gains of 8 to 22 points in other, conti nental quotation?, notably those on Hol land. Denmark. Norway and Sweden. Ths German rate alone held back, marks malt inar onlv the slightest gailk. Time money rates were more rigid than demand Quotations, few loans other than those of 30 to DO days being made at less than 5 per cent, the latter rate prevailing for all long-time maturities. High-grade merchants' paper was quoted at 4 per cent, but no acceptances were reportea - Bonds showed a tendency to improve as stock market operations expanded. CLOSING STOCK QUOTATIONS.

Rushes to buy wheat today lifted the price of that com modity fully 614c a bushel at one stage of the day's transactions. The urgency of traders was generally explained as the result of a preceding big rise of values in European markets. 'The finish here was strong, o4c to 6c net higher, with May $1.3814 to $1.38 and July $1.214 to $1.2114. Corn gained IV50 to 1 i c, oats lc to 4c, and provisions 17 20c to 3uc. With knowledge that wheat in Liverpool was being quoted today at equal to more than $1.&0 & bushel. American money, whereas wljeat in Chicago was recently selling at less than $1, the majority of traders here took at - once to the buying side of the market. In a twinkling the price jumped to the highest point yet achieved by the July, delivery and to new -high figures for May since the recent up ward movement of values began. News of disappointing threshing returns In Ar gentlna added to prevailing anxrtety about the apparent scarcity of world's supplies ana so, too, did continued adverse crop advices from the southwestern sportion of tne domestic winter wheat belt. Selling to take profits brought about setbacks in price late but before the day was ended tne market- resumed its upward swing. with fresh Impetus coming from renorts ot an enlarged demand for flour and frojn announcement of a decrease in the United States visible supply of wheat. There was also talk of a big export business in wheat having been put through at the seaboard. Corn and oat prices reflected to some extent the action of the wheat market and were also helped upward by an antic ipation that 25,000 tons of corn grits would be bought tomorrow for Russian famine relief: S Provisions ascended In price with grain and hogs. The Chicago .rain letter receiver! ve terday by the Overbeck A Cooke eomnanv of Portland follows: Wheat The atre'nirth In foreign. mor kets was fully reflected at the oneninei today and the market thereafter was com pelled to digest a tremendous volume of liquidation which appeared to come from all directions. The real mystery was where the wheat disappeared. It seemed as if the advance strengthened rather than weakened the technical position. There was little bear news to be found aside from the reports of snow in Kansas, the extent of which was confined to the eastern and southern part of the state. One message from the east reporting offers to re-sell from the United Kingdom at Saturday's basis received little credence; in fact, ad vances were much to the contrary. One prominent exporter said the buying re cently had exceeded all expectations and that a significant feature is that the-purchases are being made for shipment to arrive on the other side about the same time as the new Argentine and Australian wheats. We see no indications of a re actionary tendency at this time. Corn The market was active and strong, closing at the best price of- the day de spite heavy receipts over the holidays, which caused an easier spot trading basis: While the export demand contributes ma terially to the immediate strength of the market, the paramount factor from an in vestment viewpoint is the feeding volume of corn based in livestock prices. Oati Advanced with other grains and on buying emanating from the northwest. A few weeks ago that section of the coun try was the principal seller in the way of hedging. The cash department was with out feature, the basis being fractionally lower, due to the accumulation of receipts over the holidays and an indifferent de mand. It will not be long until the spring demand for oats asserts itself in the market. Rye Trade was large with an increased volume of outside investment buying noticeable. There was also some buying by the east, presumably against sales for export. Cash rye was firm at 4 cents under May for No. 2 on track. WHEAT. High.
