Tribune’s Grain, Livestock and Market Report for Sat., March 10 STOCK MARKET HAS QNE OF MOST QUIET SESSIONS IN WEEKS Federal Control Measure and : Nervousness Over Labor Situations Blamed New York, March 10—(4)—Although | some metals and a few specialties at- | tained a small degree of popularity in Saturday’s stock market, leading is- sues were extremely listless and prices generally. narraw. It was one of the dullest sessions since early in Janu- ary. Transfers approximated 550,000 shares. The close was moderately ir- regular, Market observers attributed the Jack of enthusiasm for most equities largely to the inability of Wall Street to determine just what sort of a fed- eral control measure will pass con- gress; to nervousness over labor situ- ations which, although static for the moment, are still being watched close- ly; and to the NRA campaign for shorter working hours and higher wages, a Various metal stocks rallied follow- ing word that the house coinage com- mittee had reported favorably on two y silver bills, 5 Heaviness of the Alcohol group fol- lowed overnight Washington advices that President Roosevelt had moved to force down domestic liquor costs. ‘Wheat railied about a cent a bushel arcund midday, but cotton again pointed downward. Silver and rubber futures were fairly steady. Interna- tional dollar rates continued to fluc- tuate in small fractions. Bonds were @ little mixed. - Shares of U. S. Smelting got up more than 2 points and advances of a point or more were recorded by Mc- Intyre, American Smelting, Cerro de Pasco, American Metals and Home Sound. Canadian stocks improved and gains of about a point were held by Case, Western Union, U. 8. Rubber and Atlas Tack. General Motors was up a trifle, but Chrysler eased. The Rails and Utilities were hesitant. National Distillers, American Com- mercial Alcohol and U. 8.

FINANCIAL REVIEW New York, March 10.—()—Small |} turnovers in stocks and a lowering of the price level this week mirrored the current restraints on speculative activity in Wall Street and environs. Trading on two occasions fell under ® million shares for a five-hour mark- et, and at best it did not exceed a mil- licn and three-quarters shares. The market tended to be busiest when de- clining. Qualms over federal regulation were relieved a bit when it was learned that the Fletcher-Rayburn bill probably would be made more flexible. The wide publicity given the NRA proceedings in Washington and the]; q w. pointed suggesteions for shortening of working hours, contributed mainten- ance of the caution that has charact- rized market transactions for about i @ month. Meanwhile, interruptions to the up- 1 ward trend of business activity have been of minor consequence. 1 The biggest surprise of the financial week was the small amount of new financing decided on by the treasury : DHW for its March 15 operations. ————___________@ , Produce Markets | o¢—_—_—_—_______—_—__® CHICAGO 2 Chicago, March 10—()—Butter was weak in tone Saturday with prices lower, Eggs were also weak, but poul- a try ruled steady.

Gi SUDDEN OUTBURST OF BUYING HOISTS New York Stocks | Quotation Elevated Two Cente /Per Bushel Above an Early Low Lev Chicago, March 10.—(#)—A sudden outburst of buying hoisted wheat. “| prices almost straight upward about , |2 cents a bushel Saturday above an early low level. Favorable action of the house coin- age committee on a proposed bill at ‘Washington to exchange agricultural products for silver inspired brisk pur- chasing of wheat, and was quickly re- flected in the sharp rise of quotations. Better milling demand here for wheat helped the upturn of prices. Wheat closed strong at the day's to point, 1 cent to 1% cents higher than Friday's finish, May 87% to 88; duly 87% to %. Corn and oats both % to % up, corn May 51% to %; July 53%, and provisions varying from 2 cents decline to an equal gain. Scattered selling carried the wheat market down to 86% for May con- tracts, but enough demand appeared to produce comparative steadiness. 1, | Buyers took some incentive from re- ports of prospective large abandon- 14} ment of wheat acreage southwest, as much as 60 per cent in various sec- tions of Oklahoma and Texas. Dust storms were reported as prevalent in these sections, and rain was needed. Absence of rallying power, however, characterized trading the greater part of the day. Corn and oata prices aver- aged lower with wheat. *| Provisions reflected downturns of ffs hog values. ir. Ad. Mch. .

Dept: Agr.)—The wheat market was dull and narrow with an easy undertone during most of the week ending Friday, influenced by slow ex- port demand for North American wheat. May wheat declined 1 cent for the week, closing Friday at 83%. May rye closed at 56%, a net de- cline for the week of 1% cents. May barley here declined 1% cents for the week, closing at 41%. May oats closed at 30%, a loss of 1% cents for the week. May flax finished at $1.78!2, a loss of 3% cents for the week. Math. Alkali Mid.-Cont. Pet.” Midiand Stl. Mo.
