WEAK TONE IN STOCK MARKET * Few Exceptions to Downward Trend of Prices. NEW YORK, July 12.—Pressure 'was exerted against the list in the stock market today, resulting in losses ranging from fractions to more than 4 points. Another sharp break in American Woolen featured the early dealings. The issue dropped 4 points to 87. Canadian Pacific was an exception to the general display of weakness, advancing 2 points to 124%. Southern Railway was • re of the weakest of the rails, failing a point to 28%. Fractional losses were suffereed in Reading and Southern Pacific. Invincible Oil rose to 46%, but other oils were weak. Strombcrg Carburetor, after advancing a point to 92%, declined to 89%. United Retail Stores lost 2% points to 79%. The tone was heavy during the entire forenoon, with most of the leading issues in supply. In the early afternoon there was a run up Jn Strombcrg to 95% . "Persistent hammering by traders put most of the industrials down to new levels for the day around 2 p. m. Mexican Petroleum was down to 191. a decline of nearly 9 points from its high of last week. Call money* remained at 8 per cent. There was a final drive on prices during the last half hour of tradnig. Industrials were hard hit and Mexican Petroleum was forced to 188%. a decline of over 11 points from last week's high., Rails, particularly the low priced ones, held up well. Southern Railway retaining a position above 30. The market closed weak. Large offerings of nearly all the active issues in the final trading caused sharp declines of from 2to nearly 8 points. Selling was heavy in the steel issues. Steel common declining to 92%. Vanadium Steel broke 5 points to 85%. Losses of 2 to 3 points occurred in the motor shares, while the rails reacted 1 to 2 points from the high levels. Government bond* closed unchanged and railway and other bonds irregular. Total sales of stocks were 782,500 shares; bonds, $9,434,000. (By Thomson & McKinnon.) —July 12Today's stock market reflected a wavering confidence; the buoyancy of last week was lacking; the buying was not aggressive. The 8 per cent renewal rate was not helpful and time money is discussed here as a theory rather than a fact, for tuere is mlghtly little of it to be had. Trade conditions here, as well as in 1 all parts of the world, show distinct signs of slowing down, and in some lines conditions are bad. Banking conditions remain strained and high-priced crops soon will demand their share of banking resources. We. would rather take advantage of strength to reduce commitments.

German Is Put On List For French Officers PARIS, July 12.—The French newspapers generally applaud the order of the minister of war making it obligatory for students of the French military school at St.-Cyr, beginning in 1923, to learn both German and English. The Association of Professors of Living Languages by unanimous resolution approved the step. The Intrnuslgeant points out that if the study of German was not made compulsory many young French' students might refuse to take the German course and that in case of another war the French army might find Itself illy equipped with officers knowing the enemy's language.

GRAINS RECEDE AFTER ADVANCE Heavy Receipts and Sales for Profits Brought Turn. CHICAGO, July 12. —Corn futures, after a sharp bulge at the opening, which lasted throughout most of the trading, sank to around the opening figures in the last half hour on the Board of Trade todas*. Orders on the closing advance of Saturday and generally credited stories of rust troubles In the northwest were responsible. Heavy receipts and profit-taking sales on the advance brought the figures down at the close. Oats were not active, but rose slightly with corn and sagged at the finish. Provisions worked higher. (By Thomson & McKinnon.) —July 12— * Reports of a widespread infection of black rust in spring wneat territory were responsible for the early strength. It is to be noted that there have been no claims whatever of actual damage. The reports are unanimous m saving that the damage, if any, depends entirely upon the weather for next ten days. Remarkably poor buying power was uncovered in the late market, prices responding readily to moderate selling by early buyers. So far as corn crop itself is concerned, prevailing weather is ideal. The state of the cash market Is indicated by sales of 200,000 bushels to go to store, also by the increase of 1,195,000 in the visible. The market may give surface indications of strength in event of unfavorable crop news from the northwest, but the condition of the cash market, the apparent willingness of the country to accept present prices and above all the curtailed buying power, due to tightness of money should ultimately prevail. Very much the same conditions prevailed in oats as in corn. The market was particularly narrow all day, with trade confined to smaller Interests. The cash situation is not as heavy as in corn. This market probably will take color from corn until something radical develops, of which there Is no immediate indication.

Two Will Introduce Bill for Memorial The bill providing for the erection in Indianapolis of a memorial building for the soldiers, sailors and nurses of Indiana in the recent war. will be introduced in the special session jointly by a republican and a democrat, it is announced by the American legion. The bill, ns drafted, has been fully approved by the legislative committee of the organization, after being read section by section.

The bill calls for an appropriation of $5,000,000 by the legislature, to be used with a like sum appropriated by Indianapolis and Marlon county, to be used In buying the site and erecting the memorial building. • Howard County Wheat and Corn Damaged KOKOMO, Ind., July 12.—A hail storm swept over the southwestern portion of Howard county Sunday evening, doing serious damage to the wheat crop and cutting the corn Into ribbons.
