High Points in Today's Financial Ncivs
Steel common (uns in Rood demand again on New York Stock

largo on the Curb, with prices higher. Corn advanced and cotton
declined. Foreign exchange was dull, but steady. The New York
weekly bank statement showed inci cases in average and actual loans
and decreases in lcsetves. Bank clearings throughout the country were

It is possible that at next week's

Accqrding to the trade journals, tho
economics of business linve an ineicas

has hail the effect of strengthening ton

the question now is to ivhat extent it
bus been carried to date
In all sections, trade is broadening
and there is a disposition to anticipate
wants somewhat more freely without
evidence of speculative tendencies ac
roninanilng the movement. Demand
'for crude materials has grown, building

FURTHER GOOD GAINS
ARE SCORED IN CORN
Unfavorable Weather and Ad
vance in Hogs Start Another
Buying Movement
Chicago, May 3. Unfavorable
weather, with rains over a fcirgc part
of the belt and nn advance of 10 to 15
points in lings, started another buying
movement in the corn market al the
opening today and prices scored further
good gains.
The undertone was nervous, however,
nnd shortly after the start offerings
pnlniged, causing recessions from the
top, Tiadc was mixed. Teveris'li fluc
tuations are expected until some sta
bilizing factory develops.
May opened nt $1.0SV. to $1.00,
against $1.07 V6 nt the end yesterday,
and Inter sold at if 1 .70. July smarted
at Sl.07V4tSl.6S, against $1.05. jes
terdav's last price. September wns
nuotcil ntvSl.04 to $1.G-!V& at the out
set, against ?1.02t6, jesterday's last
puce.
Only smnll amounts of the cereal are
being distributed in the United King
dom, wheie the demand continues active
and well in excess of all lications, nc-
rding to private cables,
Ulentauccs from Argentina nre ex
pected to show further increases, if
oading conditions arc satisfactory. The
tceipts beie today were 135 cars,
'the receipts of wheat at Minneapolis
today were 142 cars, against 145 cars
last year; nt Dttluth one car, ngainst
two cars; nt Chicago ten cars, against
five cms; nt -Winnipeg 331 cars, against
132 carf..
Oats started firmer in cjinpajthy with
corn. uoinnnssiou nouses generally
were on the buving side, due to the
wet weather and continued talk about
a smaller area. Trade was only mod
erately active and selling developed on
the rise.
May opened at 10Vj to 71c, against
70c at the end jesterday, and Inter sold
at 71V&e. July started at 71Vi to
72Vsc, against 71c at the close yes
