STOCK MARKET TONE FIRMER Some Issues Make Gains— Steel Common Quiet, NEW YORK, Oct. 15.—The stock market was buoyant at the opening today, nearly everything traded In making some amount of gain. Interest, however, was concentrated In Baldwin Locomotive, which adtanced 1 point to 115%. There was continued buying of Reading 2d preferred, which, after opening at 57, advanced to 69. N The advance in this Issue was based on reports that the stock will be given half its face value of the common stodk, •a permitted under the terms of the reorganization. Reading rose to 100%, but later reacted to 96%. Bteel common was quiet, selling at from 88% to SS%. Many stocks made gains ranging from fractions to 1 point, -but business on the advances was small, reflecting the scant offerings that nave been a matter of com ment for some time. Chandler Motors continued in steady cemand and after yielding to 84% quickly advanced to 86. Crucible Steel, selling ex-dividend, rose 1 point to 132. American Tobacco advanced 2% to 135% and Independent Alcohol over 1 point to 87%. Prices continued to advaiqpe vigorously during the forenoon and many issues tonened the highest levels reached for some time. Baldwin was in large demand, advaning i% to lia%. Steel common moved up to 88%. Heading sold up over 1 point to 100%, while Reading second preferred rose 6 points 10 63. Bears-Roebuck was a weak exception, falling nearly 4 points to 112. Mexican Petroleum rose 2 pojnts to 186% and Caddo Oil was active, advancing over 1 point to 18%. IThe motors also showed strength, Chandler getting close to 87. The market closed irregular. Closing prices included : United States Steel, 88%, up % > Baldwin Locomotive, 115%, up % * Pan-American, 90%, up 1%; Southern Pacific, 100%, up %; Industrial Alcohol, 85%. up 1%: Crucible Steel, 130%, up %; Mexican Petroleum, 191%. up 3%; Reading. 99%. off %; Studebaker, 58, off % ; Central Leather, 43, P 1%. , • (By Thomson Sc McKinnon) Th< strength displayed by the stock market yesterday afternoon was in evidence again today. We have steady demand for stocks, both from commission houses and the professional short Interest. The strain In the money market was not noticeable today. And after the announcement of the renewal rate money was again quoted at what would be called, at this time, a normal figure. While the day’s activity was fairly well distributed, main interest centered in the rails and with the exception of the few that are In t absolute disfavor, all are gradually reaching a higher level. In the Industrials discrimination must be used, as there are some lines of business that are not at the present time particularly attractive. In others the outlook Is very promisIng. For illustration, equipment stocks occupy a position of advantage as compared with the motor Issues. In the steels we need a settlement of the price question, and whenever that is settled the steel companies will find enough business in the country to keep them busy for a long time. It is possible that after the presidential election business will assume a different shape. In the meantime the market will rest on a sound basis because values have been deflated to the point where Quotatlons are in many instances below actual worth. r TWENTY STOCKS AVERAGE.

On Commission Row

Trading opened with a quiet tone on the wholesale produce market today, with tb<rgeneral trend of prices steady. However, there were some higher tendencies among some of the tropical and semitropical fruits, such as oranges, lemons and grapefruit. There was but little change In the prices of oranges, although the tendency was plainly higher, but ■ lemons were considerably higher, due, commission men said, to the fact that for some time the lemon trade has been conducted at a loss. Florida, as well as Isle of "Pipe grapefruit, now on the market. TODAY’S PRICKS. Sweet Apple Cider —Per gaL, $1; half gal., 60c. Apples—Darrel, $6@S.

GRAIN FUTURES I TAKE JUMP Wheat Gains 11 1-2 Cents— Corn and Oats Up. CHICAGO, Oct. 15. Grain futures soared on the Chicago Board of Trade today. December wheat Jumped ll%c, closing at $2.17%. March wheat closed 9%c higher at $212%. J3ood gains were recorded In other grains. A heavy buying movement Influenced by a belief that the world wheat supply will be Inadequate for the demand was responsible for the gains. December opefled down 2c and closed 11 %c higher. March wheat declined %c at the opening* ot $2.03, and closed with an advance of 9%c. Decemher corn opened at 86%c, off %c and closed up 2%c. May coin advanced %c at the opening of 90%c and closed 2c higher. December oats opened lato at 56c, unchanged, and closed up %c. May oata opened late unchanged at 60%c and closed up l%c. Provisions were higher at the close. (By Thomson & McKinnon.) —Oct. 15Wheat—lt develops that there la more export business being done in wheat than is made public. This situation, together with moderate buying of the deterred deliveries by cash houses and an absence of any important selling, gave the strong tone to the late market. The surplus remaining for export the next nine months, as computed from the recent Government estimates of farm holdings, makes the market particularly sensitive to any news In the way of further foreign demand. Canadian wheat is in' good demand from United States millers because of its excellent quality and because of the poor quality of our own spring wheat crop. Importations of Canadian wheat, of course, reduce the ultimate demand for sur own surplus. Corn—A considerable betterment In the cash situation prompted heavy covering by shorts. The country is selling very little If any new corn and coustgumeuto of old corn- are small. Eastern demand Improves as the market hardens. Sales reported today, 175,000 bushels. Premiums for cash corn are % to 1 cent better than yesterday. The export business clone the past several days is estimated at 660,000 bushels. This item was effective in a sentimental way, an oversold condition In the market has been considerably rectified and we believe it la again time to take into consideration the enormous surplus derived from this year's crop, also the reserves of the previous crop. This load will prove burdensome In ttys end and we believe that the selling snle, particularly of the May, Is preferable. Oats- The strength In wheat and corn was reflected In the oat market. Demand came chiefly from former sellers. Eastern distributing demand slightly better, hot nothing beard of any export business. The surplus of alt feed stuff* Is so large as to makfe us believe that tho coservatlve seller of oats will find his position logical. Provisions—lt is reported that rather goodly sales of lard in warehouse* were expected to show a material decrease. However, the cleaning up of warehouse accumulation Is not a strong reason for expecting higher prices la the list.

MAY ASK COURT TO DECIDE COAL BODY’S POWERS (Continued' From Page One.) ever possible, the margin of $2.23 aa ordered. Mr. Dlthmer stated that coal conditions here were bad and that coal retailers In this city bad to take labor that other people did not want, and that bis firm could only get the laboring class who cannot get any shorter hours or any better money. The expense per ton for his firm amounts to $3.68 be stated. In comparing the expenses of previous years he said that operating costs were smaller and that the high cost this year was due to higher prices. In 1918 Mr. Dlthmer said that bis firm I paid 12 cents a ton for unloading cool; In 1919 It cost 15 to 18 cents to unload coal and in 1920 It cost from 28 to 35 cents a ton to unload coal. SHOWS STEADY INCREASE IN PAY OF DRIVERS. Drivers’ wages In 1918 were $lB a week; In 1919 the wages were s2o a week and In 1920 the wages paid amounted to $27 a week. In addition to their wages Mr. Dlthmer stated that a bonus of from $2 to $3 was given each driver each week. If the drivers remained with the company that long. Gasoline for trucks used In hauling coal In 1918 cost 12 cents, be stated, and In 1919 the price ranged from 18 to 20 cents a gallon, and this year about 30 cents a gallon. Feed costs were proportionately higher, he explained. In addition to bis high costs he said that demurrage rates in 1918 allowed three days’ time for unloading cars or a fine of $1 a day after the time allowed; lu 1919 two days' unloading time was allowed, with $2 fine for every day over that time, and In 1920 orders were to unload cars In twenty-four hours or else Lave an embargo placed on the switch, or suffer a fine of $2 a day after the first twenty-four hours. SAYS DEALERS HERE HAVE CLEAR RECORD. Mr. Dlthmer stated he had no opporI tnnlty to secure cheap labor, as labor ! knows the unloading conditions which ! confront the retailer and therefore fixes a price which must either be accepted by the retailer, or else the retailer will pay the demurrage rate. "Coal dealers of Indianapolis have a clear record of holding down prices and of giving service to the public," said Mr. Dlthmer. "The cooperation of Indianapolis dealers with the Federal Fuel Administration Is proven in their willingness to deliver ns small an amount as 500 pounds of coal during the time of the shortage during the war," explained Mr. Dlthmer. The cost of delivering; such amounts was made at 50 cents a load. Mr. Dith- ' mer state<Y the mine prices as well as those of tbe brokers was too high for the dealers and occasioned losses. In 1919 his firm lost $7,541 on 17.000 tons, he said, on coal secured from j mine* and brokers, and in 1918 on 27.000 j tons he lost $2,700. while in 1920 to date ‘ the firm has lost over SB,OOO on 13.277 ; tons. j Some Indiana coal ha* been purchased ! at $4 a ton at the mine from the Consolidated Coal Company, but, Mr. Dlthmer said, that he understood that company had since retired from the coal business. In nrswering a question of Mr. Noel, Mr. Dlthmer said that the "prices of coal depend upon the demand rather than the basis costs."

NO LEGAL FIGHT 15 EXPECTED HERE. In the hearings of yesterday afternoon Ft. Wayne dealers were again heard. Nearly every dealer claimed that shrinkage on cars amounted to 5 per cent. When Chairman Fxchbach a*ked If shrinkage or ‘'stealage" of coal could be recovered from the ca Tier or railroad he was informed that coal shortages on the car could be recovered from the railroad only under protest. BUTLEB 'OUT OF ORDER” WHEN DEMAND 18 MADE. One dealer explained privately that 1 when he called the railroad to get their weight on the shipment of coal that he j might recover if he was found to be short, that the railroad generally told ! him the car was not available for their ; scales at that particular time, or that the railroad acales were genealiy out of I order. Meantime consumers would ask for coal i and the dealer would have to get his car Into his bins. Mine operators collect for the full car, ! regardless of shortage at the destination, explained the denier. The power of advertising in newspapers and along other lines was belldved to be the best thing for the business of Ira Kauffman, Elkhart, although he advertised oven when he had no coal. Among other dealers heard” yesterday afternoon besides those from Ft. Wayno were Philip P. Bash of C. E. Bash & Cos., of Huntington: Sherman Harlan or Anderson, F. M. Pickering of Pickering & Son., Anderson; Ira Kauffman, Elkhart. Cotton Mills Check Cjr UNION, S.
