It was generally conceded by corn traders that the speed of the crop movement ' depended now . almost wholly on. the number of cars that the railroads could furnish. Opinions had been widely circulated that car scarcity would prevent any sustained heavy flow of supplies from rural sources before spring, but such views failed to hold confidence after orders were out in important regions to give grain the right of way even against coal. ' As a consequence the downward swings of the corn market, were interrupted only In a transient way by bullish factors such as brisk European demand for wheat, rye and oats, or by the signing of the Edge bill.
