At no time In the rectnt past have we
had a more favorable combination of
circumstances favoring the market and
encouraging a contlnnation of the pub
lic demand for securities. The constant
Improvement in our banking situation,
the steady Inflow of gold, the Improve
ment In conditions to an extent that
warranted a very optimistic statement
from the governor of the reserve board,
and the reduction of the rediscount rate
by the reserve bank here, should be
convincing: to any one who is still in
doubt that we have actually entered
the road of progress. „ . .
In the days trading the railroad issue*
wers most prominent. There was *
steady demand, with many traders
giving Baltimore and Ohio the preference.
The buying of the industrials shares
was not spectacular but all commission
houses appeared to participate in ( the
days business, and the buying of these
shares was for public account, and as a
rule in moderate quantities.
This market is now moving forward
In anticipation of general business im
provement. which will be accelerated by
a speedy adjustment of the European
reparation problem.

Wheat —A few reports from the far
southwest slightly unfavorable as to the
growing crop of wheat brought the trade
to a realization sense of the strength
in the cash market and the extreme
discount at which the July delivery is
selling. We do not consider the un
favorable reports as the chief item of
strength in the market, we pin our faith
upon the constant export inquiry for
everything offered, which, coupled with
the heavy clearances up to date, very
naturally suggest considerable scarcity of
supplies before the new ;rop is available.
Advices from the southwest as to offer
ings by the country Were conflicting,
but it is to be noted that premiums for
shipment via the gulf were firm the de
duction being that there is j sufficient de
mand for all offerings. Lower of cash
wheat, in this market, were easy in tone,
but the better grades maintained
previous premiums, hard winter wheat
selling from 14 to 16 over May and No.
1 Northern spring from 23 to 26 cents
over. It is not discoverable that any
volume of wheat is offered for move
ment to this market. We may then fore,
expect maintenance of strength in the
spot market and corresponding action lu.
the deferred deliveries
Corn and Oats—Considerable of the
strength in coar H e grains was a reflection
of wheat, but the oats market was helped
also by unfavorable reports from the fax
Southwest and from southern lowa, mere
