NEW YORK, Aug. 2.—A ware of gelling came Into the stock market during the early afternoon today, forcing losses of from 1 to over 6 points In the principal issues. The continued advance of the bolßhevik forces into Poland was considered as a factor in hammering down prices. The heaviest losses were sustained In the steel group. The railroad shares, after their response to the announcement of the rate increases, sold off from 1 to 2 points from the early high levels. Steel common declined to anew low record for the year of 86%, a loss of 2% from the opening. Vanadium Steel dropped 6 points to 68 and Baldwin Locomotive 4 points to 109. The Industrial list was carried forward l>y the advance in the rails at the start, but sold ofT Bharply immediately after. Steel common gained 1 point to 89. but quickly lost this upturn.

Studebakcr advanced 1% to 66% with a quick decline to 64%. Mexican Petroleum rose one point to 181. and 'ben sold off to 179%. Pan-American Petroleum rose 1% to 97%. but soon lost this gain. Advances cf over two points were male by International Paper and Barrett Company. The stock market was full of action all through the forenoon, but activity was at the expense of values. Vanadium dropped six points to 68, but later rallied to 73%. Sieel common after selling at SO, yielded to 87% and then advanced to 88. The railroads moved within moderate limit. Studebaker was one cf the weak features. opening at 66% and dropping to 33%, followed by a rally of one point, snd U. S. Rubber, after opening at .80. dropped to 84%. Reading was steadily bought by strong interests, and although it reacted from 91% to 89%, it quickly rallied to above 90. New Haven was bought in large blocks by strong interests.

The break !n Vanadium during the forenoon was followed by a drive at stromberg, which sold at 71%. a loss of 9 points. American Beet Sugar showen a loss of over 3 points. Railroad sto' ks moved In the same manner, twit the decline In those issues were more moderate. This was immediately followed by what was apparently a concerted bear attack based on fear of international complications following the bolshevik raids into Poland and the announcement of the bolshevik armistice terms which were considered as menacing to world peace. These hear raids gathered strength nnd were said to have been led by big operators. They hammered stocks right up to the close nnd, with one or two exceptions, stocks showed practically no resitance to the attack. All domestic news was favorable to a bull market. Including easy money and very favorable crop reports with a big improvement in the condition of cotton. Close: U. 8. Steel 85%. off 2%; Re public Steel 81%, off 3% : Vanadlaum 69%. off 6%; Baldwin 105%. off 4%: American Locomotive off 1; Studebaker 63. off 2% ; ,V. S. Steel 83%, off 3%; General Motors, 21. The stock market closed weak today. Government bonds were unchanged and railroad and other bonds were strong.

GRAIN FUTURES CLOSE HIGHER Canadian and Western Districts Suffer Drought. CHICAGO, Aug. 2.—A1l grain futures closed higher today largely as the result of short covering and bullish weather reports. Canadian and central west wheat districts deported the grain suffering severely from drought. Corn and oats followed the upward trend In wheat.. Provisions were lower on a slow hog market. December wheat opened at $2.08, oft 2%c, from Saturday's close. It quickly rallied, however, reaching a high mark of $2.15 and closing at $2.13%.. March delivery was off 5 cents at the opening at $2.08*4, but later went to $2.17*4 and was quoted at $2.15 when trading ceased. In the corn futures, September opened at $1.3414, down ‘%e. It reacted to $1.38*,4, closing at $1.37*4. December, after opening at $1.20%, %c lower, went to $1.23%, closing at $1.22%. September oats opened at s6'4c, down ■%c, reached 60%c and closed at 09%c. December started at 67%c, off %c, went to 69%c and closed at 68%c. (By Thomson & McKinnon.) —Aug. 2 Wheat—Despite the pronounced decline in wheat value*, offerings of cash wheat from the country remains of goodly proportions. Seaboard reports as light revival of foreign demand mainly from Italy, whose requirements are estimated at around 110,000,000. There is a broadening of the interest In the market for future deliveries. Millers are inclined to watch developments closely. Private estimates of yields increase the winter wheat and at the same time reduce the spring wheat. More Influential trailers are promoted to anticipate a little rally In corn prices. This feeling is borne of the need of rain in Illinois, Indiana and Missouri. It is not possible to say that sentiment favors higher prices. The market may react to some extent in case the drought area widens, but the present outlook suggests a crop considerably above average requirements. It should also be remembered that the number of animals on the farms Is considered less than a year ago. In the event of any particular reaction In prices, sales appear to be logical. In <>nts, as In wheat, the price decline has not reduced offerings from the country. On the contrary, requests for bids and offers to sell are quite general. Estimates of yields have been considerably increased and private reports point to excelleut quality uml condition. Because of this, light weight oats in current arrivals are very slow sale, being quoted at l%c under September. Nothing has developed as yet to give this market any Individuality. The total crop is sufficiently large to more than supply all demands which may be made upon It. There is a little steadier feeling In tlie provision market, on the belief that liquidated holdings have passed into good hands and on the belief that the time of decreases in warehouse accumulations has arrived. It can not he said, however, that there Is any material broadening of the foreign outlet. CHICAGO GRAIN. —Aug. 2 WHEAT— Open. High. Low. Close.

The Tigers couldn't do mu-di and the Trojans could do everything, whirls resulted in a win that was something like a walk away for Manager Owen anil his followers. Some say the count was 8 to t>, some say It was 8 to 1. John Brown started on the hill for the Tigers, hut was Jerked in the sixth to make room for Wernke. who held the Trojans scoreless for the last three rounds.

GARLACH WINS TIMES TROPHY IN FAST RACE

(Continued From Pago Eight.) front of Price, just before the trio crossed the tape. Peter Van Opdurp and C. J. Byers of Grand Rapids, Mich., were awarded silver and bronze medals, donated by the cycle trade directorate, for finishing fourth and fifth on the time list. special awards FOR MICHIGANDERS. „ The Michigan team, composed of Van Opdurp, Byers and Schneider, was also honored with special medal awards by the cycle trade directorate through the judgment of Representative Farwell, for their excellent work as a team and the spirit of sportsmanship they showed throughout the race. Ted Garlach, winner of the event, proved himself a rider of no mean ability. His handicap of three minutes w. s awarded because of his lack of experience in the racing game, but he showed long before the trip was completed that ne could have gone up and bid high for honors without this help. Garlach left the post at a good clip and traveled fast all the way. Thomas Loyal, cairylug a six-minu:e handicap, led for the first two laps, when he was overtaken by Claude liallenbaugh, who stayed out in front for seven trips around the course. GARLACH GOES OCT IN FRONT. Garlach went up to the lead position on the back stretch in the ninth lap and it looked as though (Vagner and his time rivals would catch Garlach on the home stretch in the last lap, but the local boy was there with just as much sprint stuff as the others and he went across with Wagner's front wheel at his pedal. The riders battled against a stiff btieze on the front stretch, which ran from Burdsal boulevard north on Parkview to Thirtieth street, and this served to cut down their speed considerably. If tiie day had been warmer and the breeze light It Is poss.ble Gsat the riders wou'd have camped right around the national record for fifteen miles. Park board officials and the police department co-operated with the race officials in every way possible and the event was staged without the usual crowding of the course and bad road difficulties. Only one accident resulted during the speedy going and that was in the eariy stage or the race. Leonard Kirk, one of the city's best pedal pushers, am. two other riders spilled on the back s’retch. Kirk was badly shaken up by the fall and was forced to leave the track.
