(By Thomson -fe McKinnon* NEW YORK, Feb. 21.—Acceptance by the B. & O. of the interstate commerce commission’s consolidation plan, according to unofficial reports, will soon be forthcoming. Importance thereof lies partly in the fact that it will be the first of the eastern trunk lines to act favorably upon the plan, and it suggests the possibility of C. & O.’s acceptance as well. The January return of the latter, showing increased income, is distinctly pleasant reading, in view of the recent down trend of railroad earnings. Decline in the Stock Exchange ratio last month to a point approximately 4% per cent below that of a year ago illustrates the improvement which has been brought about in the market’s fundamental position. The moderate increase in broker loan account this week probably was somewhat less than many had expected. Process of further strengthening the reserve bank’s position has been carried onward. Commodity markets continue to hold the center of financial interest, for the moment at least, and indications of improvement therein are being closely watched for. We feel that fundamental conditions generally are fairly well maintained, but with the surface factors tending to be mixed, the trend of the market is momentarily somewhat indistinct. However, this does not in any way detract from our friendly feeling for the better grade issues, particularly when they are obtainable, because of technical corrections at temporary price recessions.

STRONG FOREIGN MARKETS MOVE GRAINS UPWARD Better Demand. Removal of Hedges and Short Covering Help. R<! Cnitcd /'>** CHICAGO. Feb. 21. —Wheat bounded upward on the Board of Trade today, surprisingly strong foreign cables indicating a fnuch better tone in world markets. Liverpool opened strong and rose rapidly, due to the removal of hedges, short covering and a better continental demand. Buenos Aires opened sharply higher and just before noon was 2% cents to 2% cents up. Corn and oats jumped with wheat. At the opening wheat was 1U cents to 25i cents higher, corn was % cent higher, corn was % cent to 1 cent higher and oats w or F :i cent to 1 cent higher. Provisions were firm. Liverpool opened much stronger than expected and climbed steadily during the day, being 2% cents to 2% cents higher about mid-after-noon. Less pessimism seems to prevail this morning, with the traders of the belief that the present low levels have discounted the situation. Another factor is the possibility of damage to the crop in the southwest where the new wheat is above the ground, due to the warm weather, while a cold wave is forecast. Corn showed more strength than wheat Thursday, and with the soft roac’s over the belt retarding the movement, better prices may be expected. The farmers seem dissatisfied with the present prices and are unwilling to let go of their grain. Oats made a fair recovery at the ciose Thursday on the strength in corn after its earlier reaction, and corn remains the dominating factor in the pit. Chicago Grain Table —Feb. 21— Prev. WHEAT— High.

Feb. 21.—While tlie controversy over prohibition enforcement continues in the capital, the Anti-Saloon League is investigating the records of prospective senatorial and congressional candidates at this year’s elections.
