after the average of 20 leading in
dpstrlal stocks had established a
the early trading on buying obvi
ously influenced by the publica
tion of additional favorable Feb
ruary earnings statements, particu
larly by the northwest carriers.
These gains were materially re
duced or cancelled later when
heavy selling developed in Norfolk
& Western.
New low records for the year
were established by United States

baker at 91, but all made a
good " recovery from their low
prices of the day.
Oil shares moved up with rails
in the early dealings in. further re
flection of another decrease in
erode oil production, but they fell
back with the rest of the list in
the selling which engulfed the
market soon after the noon hour.
Call money opened at 4 per
cent and. then advanced to 5, where
it closed... Time money rates were
unchanged, the shorter maturities

CHICAGO, March 28. Wheat
values broke to within a cent
to $1 a bushel today with all de
liveries reaching a new low record
for the season. Reappearance of
liquidation on the part of holders
of wheat, corn and oats and pre
ceded the fresh downturn of prices.
Wheat closed unsettled at c to
14c net decline, with May (1.00
to $1.00, and July, $1.02.
Corn, c to Hie off; oats, c
to lc lower, and provisions
varying from 10 to 12 cent set
back to a gain of 2 cents.
In contrast with the weakness
which later developed, the grain
markets early showed a tendency
to advance. Predictions of colder
weather with rain had led to a
temporary reversal of position on
the part of a number of traders
who previously were active sellers
but who inferred that adverse
weather would bring renewed de
lay to oats seeding, as well as hin
der the movement of corn and
wheat. Absence of selling pres
sure, however, was- subsequently
less noticeable than apparent de
ficiency of buying power. Then,
the lack of any aggressive support
for the wheat market was given
decided emphasis , after midday
when word came that Canadian
oats were continuing to find a
ready outlet in New England. Be
sides weakness of the New York
Stock , market and in cotton had' a
bearish effect on grain. "
Only as wheat approached the
dollar-mark was there much let
up in the selling after liquidation
here bad once got under way. The
dollar-mark .pause in the selling
of wheat j was also coincident with
depression of corn to 75 cents for
May delivery, a price regarded as
about even with hogs at $7.50,
the first time in a long while that
such an equal ratio has been es
tablished.
Corn fell to the lowest prices
touched of late. Oats went under
40 cents for September, a new
bottom figure for the crop. Pro
visions sympathized to some ex
tent with the weakness of grain.

ciation sold 1000 boxes of 60s for
