STOCK MARKET ON DOWN GRADE Early Gaifrs Turn to Losses— Petroleum Advanced 1 Point. NEW YORK, Aug. 18.—Although the news from Poland was regarded as satisfactory, It had only an Influence on the stock market for a short period today, and before the end of the first fifteen minutes prices were again on the down grade, early gains being turned into losses. United States Steel started on a gain of % to 86%, and then dropped to 88, and Baldwin, after advancing % to 103%. declined to 102%. Mexican Petroleum moved in the same way, making an opening gain of 1 point to 152, from which it dropped to 151%. After the stock reacted on selling b> room traders, business became dull, but the tone was strong. Baldwin Locomotive, after its decline to 102%. moved up to 103%. Crucible Steel made a gain of over 2 points to 133. and United States Steel rallied from 66 to 66%. Petroleums were in demand, and Mexican Petroleum advanced % to 152%, and Pan-American Petroleum advanced ovei 1 point to 80%. Bear operators continued their driving tactics, but made little headway at the beginning of the second hour except in sugar issues. American sugar was off 1 point; beet sugar 2 and Cuba cane about 1 point. Pan-American sallied forth and dropped back to 79% and then recovered again. Mexican Petroleum moved In a range between 151 and 152%. The market behaved much better during the last half hour. There was a rally In spite of 9 pr cent money. Mexican Petroleum rallied 3 points from the low and Pan-American about 2 points. Close—U. S. Steel, 86%; Bethlehem B, 71%, off % ; Baldwin. 102. off %; American Locomotive. 92%, off %; Mexican Petroleum, 1.56%, up 1; Pan-American, 80%, up 1; Royal Dutch, New York, 79%, up %; Stmlebaker, 59%, off 1; General Motors, 20%, off %; Reading, 86%, off %. The market closed higher. —Aug. 18— (By Thomson & McKlnonn.) Such action as there was in stocks today was a true reflex of a general confusion of opinion as to what import existing conditions both at home and abroad have in relation to the market. Prices moved Irregularly, but not significantly, and the trade throughout was not of sufficient volume to furnish a basis for formulating' any intelligent Idea on the course trading will take In the Immediate future. Nothing definite has as yet come out of the armistice conference and seemingly there was a disposition to attach more importance to the outcome of this meeting than the results of the battle being waged for the possession of Warsaw. Less activity in the steel industry is noted by the Iron Age. This is ascribed partly to uncertainty over prices due to the advance in freight rates, whtch becomes effective next week, and partly to further cancellations of contract by automobile makers. Some selling of equipment issues was prompted by the statement made by this same trade authority that not much further business for railroad equipment was expected by the car builders this year.

Terse Market Notes NEW YORK, Aug. 18.—News of the Poland comeback will affect the market but little with call money harder and time money almost unobtainable and weak places appearing to eliven bearish imaginations. Lower prices are expected in the steel group. Railway executives, according to reports, have asked for $200,000,000 loans to expedite the movement of freight. * There is little New York state opposition to railway freight and passenger advances. According to reports here British labor defies Lloyd George demanding peace with Russia.' British labor agitators have been ordered to leave Russia. In spite of the wage increase granted raiiwhy employes, there are murmurings of more discontent. The Plumb plan shows evidence of life, according to reports, the Idea being to obtain universal conditions to provide for the handling of grievances, standardisation of wages, working conditions, etc. In short, for conditions that prevailed in this regard while the roads were under government control. NEW YORK, Aug. 18. —Sales of stocks today totaled 326,000 shares. Bonds to the value of $2,243,000 were also sold. COTTON. WASHINGTON, Aug. IS—According to the government weather report, the week average temperature was warmer than normal in the eastern cotton belt and slightly cooler in the central south. There was frequent moderate to heavy rainfall, with excessive amounts In a few portions and much cooler than normal in western districts. Sunshine was inadequate in nearly all parts and cotton deteriorated in all but a few north central districts. Cotton deteriorated over large areas except from northern Arkansas and eastward and in those parts of Texas where the rainfall was light. Shedding and insect damages increased and there were complaints of rank growth at the expense of fruit, although it was fruiting well In a few places. 800 l weevil was reported from Oklahoma and Texas due to excessive niuisture, low temperatures and lack of sunshine. The weather favored the opening of the bools in Florida cotton regions, but they opened slowly In south center of the belt. Picking made satisfactory progress in the lower coast counties of Texas, but was delayed elsewhere in the state. Picking was begun in southern Alabama and Mißsiss’ppl. NEW YORK, Aug. 18.—Liverpool came lust about as expected, 7 to 8 points lower. Scattered showers with temperatures slightly below normal were recorded during the last twenty-four hours. The continued decline in spots both Is foreign and domestic emphasize the uncertainty as to the outlook for consumption. Despite generous rainfalls the temperature continues favorable to the crop. GRAIN. CHICAGO, Aug. 18.—Burlington railway reports state that the harvesting of wheat and oats is practically finished. In Illinois wheat Is averaging 15 to 25 bushels to the acre and oats 30 to 55 bushels to the acre. Oats In lowa averaged 50 bushels per acre and in Missouri 35 bushels. Wheat, according to reports, in Nebraska Is averaging 22.7 bushels. NEW YORK, Aug. 18—According to reports coming In during the week a greater loss of spring wheat 's Indicated than was anticipated, owing to the black rust. The corn situation has not improved during the week but has b-en seriously affected, as good rains fell In many sec lions the latter part of last week that were barely in need of moisture.

In the Cotton Markets 5 NEW YORK, Aug. 18.—With the exception of Novemberfi which was unchanged, the cotton market opened rather firm today, at a net advance of 15 to 29 points. The tone seemed to be better, due to partly more optimistic news from Poland. Offerings were large, while there was a demind from Wall street, local shorts and commission houses. At the end of the first twenty minutes the list was still firm, with prices fully 33 points over last night's close.

It was first regarded as extremely unfavorable because the flr/it eighteen lines could hardly describe conditions any worse. Then it suddenly changed and said the crop was making good to excellent progress In Texas. Oklahoma, northern Arkansas and most oT the Carolinas. December had Jumped to 2U.04c, but collapsed on the contradiction and later on developed extreme weakness on general liquidation and lack of support. The only other news was the Improved Polish situation and another wet weather map. It is suspected that much of the weakness in cotton Is due to practically no demand for spot cotton in the south. This, coupled with fairly good crop prospects and lack of bull speculation, is driving prices down. NEW ORLEANS, Aug. 18.—Cotton futures opened steady, 3C to 41 points hlgner, and advanced 2 to 10 points further on covering orders and reports of excessive rains in the belt. Heavy selling later by spot houses and bearish cables caused a decline of 105 to 118 points under the opening. The close was easy, 61 to 85 points net lower. New Orleans cotton range— Open. High.

GRAIN FUTURES CLOSED WEAK Market Opened Firm, but Polish News Forced Declines. CHICAGO, Aug. 18.—Grain futures dosed weak on the Chicago Board of trade today. The market opened firm on a fair demand but declined later on reports of a break In the Russian lines by the Polish army. September corn reacted the strongest, dropping more than 3 cents below the opening. December wheat opened at $2.39, up %r. and closed at $2.39, unchanged. March wheat opened up %c at $2.41 and dosed %c lower at $2.40%. September corn at $1.49 opened up %c and was at $1.43%, down 3%e, at Ihe close. December corn closed at $1.26%, up l%c, against the opening of $1.25%. up %e. September oats opened at 69%c, %o higher, and closed at 68, l%c off. December oats opened at 69%c, up %c, and dosed at. 6S%c, down %c. Provisions closed lower. (By Thomson & McKinnon.) —Aug. 18— Wheat—Premiums were firmer. The market advanced a little with the opening of the Winnipeg market, but when it was found that their October wheat I was opening about on a par with our j No. 1 northern gish It lost Its effect. The country was reported as only moderate sellers. Exporters were almost entirely out of the market. Corn—Trade started narrow and largely local. An early appearance of strength was in sympathy with wheat, but some- ; what larger receipts and the dull demand i caused prices to ease off. Good ral:is were reported in the west, where it is . claimed they were needed. As the ses- j sion advanced the Inherent weakness became more apparent, sellers found a poor] market with hut little support, and prices j declined sharply with commission house | selling. Rallies are possible, of course, j but meeting fairly good advances with sales seems safe. Oats —This market was narrow with the trades mostly In the way of changing from September to December. Receipts were fairly liberal and the cash market had no snap. $t responded raedily to weakness In corn. If receipts keep up as at present, lower prices seem more than probable. Provisions—A little easier hog market with easiness In grain also made Indifferent buyers and prices dragged, but we should tie careful about doing any selling except on advances.

Losses by fire are showing heavy increases In the United States, according to reports, owing to the higher valuation placed upon property destroyed. Settlement* are made by the fire Insurance companies on the basis of the cost of replacement, which, owing to the rise in the cost of building materials and the rapid lnrreasea In wage* In the building trades, bas been on the up grade. In July losses by fire In the United States and Unnada, according to a compilation made by the Journal of Commerce, New York, reached n total of $25,120,600. or approximately 25 per cent larger than for the same month last vpar, when the figures reached $20,198,CfO. The July record brings the total fire waste for the eleven months of 1920 up to the unusually high auin of $1.89.655,500, or an Increase of over $38,000,000 over the same month of last year. The -number of fires charged with losses ranging between SIO,OOO and $20,00 in relatively less than the outbreaks which result In much heavier damages. This is ascribed to the fact that once the outbreak of fire gets sufficient headway to cause any real material damage the loss, with present high valuations of property, Is almost sure to run beyond $20,000. The classification of the relative destructiveness of 256 fires In July Is shown In the following table: Estimated loss. No. of fires. SIO,OOO to $20,000 81 20.000 to 30.000 36 30.000 to 50,000 33 50.000 to 75,000 28 75,000 to 100,000 IS 100.000 to 200,000 33 200,000 and over 29 "Total 250 There has been a marked Increase in fire insurance premium writing throughout the country,, estimated at least as high as 25 per cent. Increased cost of production has led property owners to Increase the amount of Insurance carried. WHOLESALE MEATS.

[email protected] 15.00 @ 15.40 [email protected] With 9,000 hogs on the market today, approximately 2,000 of them left over from Tuesday’s market and orders coming in slow, the hog market held steady with Tuesday. Commission men were of the opinion there would not be as goo-! a clearance today as there was Tuesday, which means that there will probably be between 2,000 and 3,000 hogs left over for the Tuesday market. What buying and selling that did take place was of a general nature. There was no deviation from the buying schedule of the Tuesday market, which follows; Hogs weighing 160 to 210 pounds, $15.75; 210 to 225 pounds, $15.60; 225 to 250 pounds. $15.40; 250 to 275 pounds, $15.15, and 275 to 300 pounds, sls. Roughs and pigs were unchanged. Tops again brought $15.85 and the bulk of the sales ran between $15.40 to $15.75. The cattle market was draggy with a general drop of 25 to 50 cents, with the exception of good and choice which brought, practically steady prices. An over supply in the outside cattle market Is the principal cause for the drngginess of the market, cattle dealers said. Receipts for the day approximated 1.000, with some stuff left over from Tuesday’s market. There was but very little good stuff on the market. It was rumored that u few steers sold at $16.50, but that was outside the general trend of the market and effected only some extreme choice steers. With orders from eastern shippers scarce and no local buying to speak of except among speculators, the calve market dropped 50c to $1 lower today. Top calves brought $15.50, while there were only a few that brought an extreme top of sl6. The bulk of sales among the good calves ran at sls® 15.50, a drop of 50c on good and choice. Medium and others brought $1 lower. Receipt* for the day approximated 750. The sheep market is steady to 50c lower, sheep selling steady nnd lambs 50c off There was only a small amount of good stuff among the 900 receipts of the day. The drop on the lambs Is due to the over supply on th-* Chicago market, where there are 29.000 receipts today and where they are being sharply sorted. HOGS.

On Commission Row The produce market took on a slightly firmer tone this morning, credited mostly to the fact that there was not the general oversupply of produce on the market in comparison to today’s demands and to Tuesday’s oversupply. There were but few changes in the prices. The cheese market has developed a much firmer tone. Jersey sweet potatoes are now on the market at $9 a barrel. Michigan Duchess apples are now arriving on the market in sufficient quantities to supply the demand. They are selling from $1.50 a basket up. The summer supply of apples is deteriorating nnd it is only a matter of a week or two until they will be off the market to be replaced by early fail apples. Rains in the cantaloupe sections of the southern part of the state have held up the harvesting of the crop and hut few cantaloupes are being shipped to the market. Consequently they are higher than they were last week. For the past few days the usual fall advance In the price of oranges has been coming on, and some wholesale men are of the opinion that the advances may go even higher than ordinarily this fall, due to several unusual causes, including the advance in freight rates, which will amount to considerable from the orange growing sections.

LACK OF FUNDS A BIG HANDICAP TO SUNNYSIDE (Continued From Page One.) nystde at heart it is a serious problem to be solved. MARKET TOO TIGHT. County Auditor Leo K. Fesler admits that the bonds have not been sold and explains it on the grounds of the present peculiar bond market condition. Wealthy citizens of Marion county and of Indianapolis as well could materially aid Sunnyside by purchasing the SIOO,OOO bond issue at once and so assure the opening of the power plant and service building before winter. A visit to Sunnyside would impress any one with the necessity of at once disposing of these bonds. Among the patients at Sunnysld*' is a 5-year-old orphan boy named Glenn. The first few years of his life was spent at a local orphanage. Glenn, on arriving at Sunnyside, was so weak from the ravages of the white plague that he was unable to stand. CURE B<VON BEGINS. ' He was placed in a bed and soon the fresh air and the expert medical attention began to work its cure. Today Glenn Is one of the most robust, active and happy patients at Sunnyside and he had so much pep while romping on the lawn yesterday that he sang a song for the guests of the institution. Glenn didn’t have a chance In life before he entered Sunnyside, but months spent under the watchful and expert eyes of Dr. Hatch has resulted in a complete transformation in this lad. There are twenty tubercular children now at Sunnyside and the opening of the power plant and the service building means a great deal to them in their fight against the white plague. Certain hours of the day these children, who are fighting for health, attend school in a large, airy and welllighted school room, which is presided over by Miss Del Roberts. HER WORK JUST ANOTHER ARGUMENT. The work of Miss Roberts is Just another reason why the SIOO,OOO bonds should be sold at once. Among the patients at Sunnyside Is a former United States marine, who would be a splendid specimen of manhood if it were not for the ravages of tuberculosis. One morning he woke up and was frightened when he spit up blood, then he realized ths horror of it all—it was tuberculosis. “The best part of it,” said Dr. Hatch, as the big marine dressed in a bath robe sat In the doctor’s office, “is that we can about guarantee an absolute cure in his case because we took the case over in its early stages.” And so the great work of Dr. Hatch and the management of Sunnyside goes on and on in spite of the handicap for funds. , Sunnyside must dispose of SIOO,OOO worth of bonds. Who will help little Glenn, the big former marine, and seventy-six other tubercular patients at Sunnyside? That’s the question.

NO COLLECTION OF ASHES IN 15 YEARS (Continued From Page One.) the lnterurbans thunder past at forty miles an hour, day and night, but to have them moved ten feet closer to the houses would be unbearable. “Why we wouldn’t dare let our children out of the house," said V. F. Irey, 1116 We*t Thirty-sixth street. "They’d get on the car tracks and be killed before we'd know It." The right thing for the traction company to do, the residents contended, would be to put their car tracks on the other elde of the street, which is bounded only by a cemetery. The board of works took the complaint under advisement because it was not euro that the complainants live within the city limits, and that the street Improvement Is under the board's Jurisdiction. "Well if I don’t live within the city limit*," remarked Mr. Robbins indignantly, "I'd like to know why It is that I’ve had to pay city taxes for the last fifteen years?"

Spcms REDS BAT WAY TO FLAG BERTH While Dodgers Rest, Cincy Regains National Lead. The Brooklyn Dodgers rested themselves out of the National league lead yesterday. While the Robins were Idle, Cincinnati busily mauled and maltreated the Chicago Cubs, 3 to 2. Aside from the fact that the Reds slipped into first place with the victory, the game was important as marking a return of the drivIng power* of Moran’s outfit. Fat’s athletes apparently had recovered from their somnolence and are ready to go forth on the trail of a pennant. No games were scheduled for the Nationals today, but the Americans had a full program, with the Yanks and Cleveland resuming hostilities after a oneday suspension out of respect for Ray Chapman, Cleveland shortstop killed by a pitched ball. The Chicago White Sox normally would expect to Improve their position in the next few days, battling with the tail-end Macks at Philadelphia. If it be a matter to be discussed now with propriety, the death of Ray Chapman should hare an important bearing on the finale of the American league race. His loss Is bound to weaken Cleveland, it probably will weaken New York through cutting dowti the reflectiveness of Carl Mays, who hurled the fatal ball. The White Sox may be helped by the accident. The possible effect on Mays was voiced by “Dutch” Ruether of the Cincinnati Reds In Chicago today. “If I ever killed a fellow with a pitched ball,” Ruether said, “I would throw away my shoes and glove. I couldn't play another game.
