STOCK MARKET TONE IS WEAK Steel Common Sustains Losses —OH Issues Strongest. ' NEW YORK. Oct. 27.—Apparently some of those who had heard or repeated the rumors that an extra dividend might be declared on Steel common had bought the stock on the basis of those rumors, and when they found that there was ne foundation for the report, threw their stocks over at the opening of the stock market today. There was a wide opening In Steel common, the first In a long time, initial sales being recorded at 25,000 shares at from 88% to 88%, a drop of 1% from yesterday’s final, and In the next few minutes the stock was traded In at 68%. Repnblle Steel opened up % to 78% and then dropped to 78, and Baldwin Locomotive moved up % to 114%. The oil stooks continued strongest and moat prominent features, Mexican Petroleum advancing 1% to 194%, the highest price at which this stock recently sold. Central Leather gained 1 point to 89% and then reacted to 89%. There was a good demand for Seneca Copper, which rose to 18%. The action of Steel common in the early trading exerted a disturbing Influence throughout the rest of the list and during the forenoon there was a w£ak tone to the active list. Steel common yielded 1% to 87%. Republic Steel dropped 2% to 76%, and losses of around 1 point were suffered In the other steel Issues. Mexican Petroleum, after advancing to 194%, dropped to 192%, and Royal Dutch dropped nearly 2 points to 76%. Studebaker declined over. 1 point to 57%. The railroad stocks were about 1 point below the early levels. The market closed lower. Closing prices Included: United States Steel 87%, off 1%; Mexican Petroleum 193, off %; Royal Dutch 76%, off 1%; GeAeral Motors 17, off %; International Paper 66, off 2%; Baldwin Locomotive 118%. off 1; Pan-American Petroleum 90, off 1. (By Thompson & McKinnon) —Oct. 2 i We have had another dull and uninteresting day with public interest in the stock market reduced to a minimum. The market recently has been of a character calculated to tire and discourage holders. Notwithstanding this, what outside business developed leaned toward the long side and there has been no evidence of anything more than some scattered selling, and when there was any actual pressure it could be traced to the local professional element. This morning it was natural there would be some disappointment at the failure of Steel corporation to make an extra distribution as rumor bas it. The most discouraging fact, however, is the high money rate which has prevailed since last week. Trade news continues to disclose an unsatisfactory state of affairs with price cutting developing as a well settled policy In the steel and iron trade, with seine companies now anxiously looking for new business. Corporate reports that are now appearing and those that are to come In the near future will undoubtedly confirm all that has recently been said with relation to business. Reports of steel companies have been an exception so far, owing to the ability to fulfill previous contracts. The coming election is counted upon as a stimulating Influence for business, but elections at beat are uncertain, and ther is always the chance of some unexpected change of sentiment and consequently disappointment. Taking all things Into consideration the market has given a fairly good account of itself, but Is now In need of some- ! thing now to stimulate activity. TWENTY STOCKS AVERAGE. NEW YORK. Oct. 27.—Twenty Industrial stocks averaged 85.61, a decrease of .12 per cent. Twenty active rails averaged 83.36, an Increase of .14 per cent.

In the Cotton Markets

NEW YORK, Oct 27.—A further set back occurred at the opening of the cotton market today, owing to poor cables, selling by New Orleans and Wall street Interests and less optimistic news regarding the British Coal strike negotiations. First prices were 15 to 42 points lower, after which the list acted fairly steady on support from spot concerns and a later private message stating that a favorable decision was expected on the British coal matter. . Later weakness at New Orleans was assumed to be a reflection of hedge selling and eventually It affected the market here so that by the end of the first twenty minutes prices were about sixty points under the previous close. . New York cotton opening: December, 21.95 c; January, 21.35 c; March, 21.25 c; May, 21.00 c; July. 20.70 c: August, 20 70c. Selling increased in the last hour, forcing prices down rapidly. The close was barely steady at a net decline of 80 to 105 points. NEW ORLEANS, Oct. 27.—Influenced by spot selling here and In New York andbearlsh cables, cotton futures opened 40 to 50 points lower, and after covering movement which stiffened price# 18 to 42 points, again started downward, reaching levels 60 to 73 points under opening figures. The close was weak, net 101 to 105 points lower. LIVERPOOL, Oct. 27.—Spot cotton was In fair demand. Prices were steady. Sales totaled 6,000 bales.

GRAIN MARKET PRICES SAG ‘Wheat Strike* of Western Farmers Has Little Effect. CHICAGO, Oct. 27.—The first days strike by western farmers against marketing wheat at present prices had no effect on strengthening quotations on the Board of Trade today. After a strong opening, a reaction set In which carried all grain quotations downward. The increase shown, at the opening was generally credited to the farmers’ reported stand against marketing wheat at this time, but as trading advanced and reports from over the grain belt showed that the "strike” was having little effect, the market sagged. Provisions were lower. December wheat opened at $2.11, np l%c, but dropped sc. at the Close. March wheat opened unchanged at $2.02% and closed off 2%c. December corn, up %c at the opening, 82%c, nnd later lost %c. May corn, up %c at the opening, 89%c, agd lost l%c at the close. December oats, up %c at the opening, 54%c, and closed %e down. May oats, up %c at the opening, 00c, and closed off %c. (By Thomson A McKinnon.) —Oct. 27 !\ heat—The policy followed by the foreign buyers of wheat of appearing In the market only when offerings are free and price* depressed, was typified in today’s market. There was no discoverable evidence of any foreign demand from any source. Considerable has been heard from the Southwest of the farmers' Intention to hold wheat for higher prices. This has been without effect for the reason that the Canadian farmer sees the light and is selling freely. Messages from Winnipeg said that offerings were larger than for weeks. It might also be noted that there 1* no decrease In tbo movement at southwestern points. Cash wheat In this market is relatively strong because of (he light receipts. Premiums somewhat firmed today under a demand from one shipper to complete u cargo. The early (strength In corn carno more from a lack of offerings than from any heavy demand receipts foiling off and tho eastern demand is slightly better. Premiums for daily receipts were %c to %c higher. Export Inquiries were in the market, but bids were" below a workin* b*ts. Demand from feeders In the southwest Is said to be somewhat better. These Items all suggest u period of steadiness possibly firmness. In price*, but the *lze of the crop, together with lack of Interest on the part of tho tradgenerally will ultimately bring about a lower range of prices. Oat*—Hedging sales, some of them possibly from Canadian cources, appeared In the oat market from time to time The buying power comes from those Who believe value* have had sufficient decline. Demand of this sort Is not general. Farmers are being paid 40 to 41 cents In western lowa and Nebraska. Despite thin relative cheapness, offerings are sufficiently largo for ail requirement* Provision* -Buyers of hog products lit the cash line are indifferent. A further decline In the price of hogs is expected Stock yards Interests were sellers of products, while tho demand was scattered and small. rmrago grain. WHEAT— Open. High Low. Close.

$500,000 HUNG UP FOR BOUT Continued from Page 10. that he be permitted to name six prospective referees and several judges if the same conditions prevail as at Toledo. Regardless of whether or not final articles are signed today. Dempsey and Carpentler are as good as matched. They will be tied up tightly before Carpentler starts for France and the biggest fistic attraction in tho history of the game will be staged next summer for the biggest purse ever hung up, $500,000. Tex Rickard broke all previous records for .curses when he gave Willard and Dempsey $127,500 to battle at Toledo. That fight drew something oyer $400,000. The coming battle between Dempsey and Carpentler, which is practically sure to be staged in New York, will draw $1,000,000 provided it Is staged in or near the metropolis. .Hence tho purse of half a million is no more or less than the promoters might have been expected to offer. Dempsey, It is said, will receive $300,000 for his end. Carpentler will get the remaining $200,000 and both will share in the moving pictures, as will the promoters of the fight. The pictures, by the way, will earn a handsome sum In New York State or any State in which they are shown in this country, but abrond they will be worth a fortune, and It is believed the boxers will realize almost as much from the showing of the pictures la Europe as they will get out of the purse. BELIEVE PERMIT WILL BE GRANTED. The attitude of the New York State boxing commission toward the proposed big fight is being watched with interest. So far the commlslson has hot shown any definite? policy, thought It has put up what might be called a temporary barrier against heavyweights. This barrier, it Is believed, will be taken down after tho election and. as the Dempsey-Carpentier bout would be highly popular here, it is predicted that the commission will grant the necessary permit to the promoters. Though no site has been named and no date set, It Is very probable that the bout will be staged on July 4, In or near New York City. An Immense arena, similar, though much larger than the one erected by Rickard at Toledo, will be built to house the contest. George* Carpentler will sail for France Nov. 6 and will remain abroad until after the Christmas holidays, returning shortly after the first of the year, to start training. Before leaving, Carpen tier, through his manager, will post a forfeit of $30,000, to guarantee his part of the agreement and Dempsey will post a like amount. The promoters. It I* understood, will post a forfeit of SIOO,OOO. Dempsey and the French champion will no! lie permitted to engage in any bout# alter Jan. 1, but both may box prior to that time, and it 1* expected that It the Imrs against heavyweights are dropped by the New York commission, Dempsey and Bill Brennan will be matched to battle at Madison Sqnare Garden. This match was definitely "on’' at one time, but had to be postponed indefinitely because of the attitude vt the boxing commissioner*.

PREPARING FOR MUDDY FIELDS Continued from Page 10. team that Earlham was able to defeat by only a 7-to-6 score the week before. Wabash had sent out enough "bear” stogies to have caused all the physicians in the State to move to Crawfordsville. but when that Wabash back field started hitting the Engineers' line, the Rose Poly team was unable to halt them. Purdue has had two weeks of rest since Ohio State defeated the Boiler Makers, and should be in good shape. The Wabash team lost to Chicago, 41 to 0, xwhile Chicago defeated Purdue 20 to 0. If comparative sco>es count then Purdue seems to have the edge. There should be a good game at Franklin Saturday when Coach John Thurber's team meets Coach "Lefty” Gilbert's Rose Poly eleven. It would be hard to say in advance which Is the stronger, and the teams probably will play a close game. Earlham has an open date this week. Butler defeated the Quakers Saturday and now Coach Mowe's team Is training for Its game with Kilamazoo (Mich.) Normal, to be played at Richmond, Nov. C. FRANKLIN LINE GETS ATTENTION FRANKLIN, Ind., Oct. 27.—The feature gridiron battle of the season here will be fought Saturday afternoon when Coach John Thurber sends h.s battling Franklin Baptists after the scalp of the Rose Poly Engineers. Comparative scores give Franklin the edge in dope over the Engineers, but Thurber and comparative scores are bitter enemies. The Gold and Blue mentor never gave a rap for the dope sheet and he is paying little attention to It this week. Wabash showed a wonderful improvement and crossed a lot of critic* by defeating Rose by a large total last week, but the plucky Rose team battled hard every minute of the playing time and Coach Vaughan’s men must be given credit for every point they scored. The same will be the case here Saturday. a* far as fighting Is concerned. Thurber expects the Engineer combination to pile off the rattlers full of pep and eager for action, and he is grooming his men to handle a mean proposition. The Franklin line has been decidedly weak in spots this season and Coach Thurber Is making shift after shift in practice sessions and he is confident of finding tho right men for the right places before the Saturday game. Tho Franklin offensive machine also is being overhauled. Coach Thurber is Introducing new plays and revamping the old ones every day, so that hardly a single old formation will be used against this week’s visitors to the land of Baptists. Hose is understood to be working just ns hard as Franklin and the chances for a great fight between two weli-groomed eleven* are brighter than usual. IRISH HOLD FINAL DRILL NOTRE DAME, Ind., Oct. 27—Coach Knute Rockne, "master mind” of many a neat little football plot, today called his Notre Dame men out for their final hard drill before the Invasion of West Point’s camp Saturday. The Irish leave for the East tomorrow afternoon.. Twen-ty-four men will make the trip. Uockne's most valuable back field substitute, Danny Coughlin, suffered an Injured knee In practice yesterday, and It was at first thought that he would tx on the hospital list Saturday, but he was out trotting around as per usual today, although limping slightly, and he will be ready to work against the Cadets if called upon. 4 Today's practice was held behind closed gates, because during the session the Gold nnd Blue athletes opened up their bag of offensive tricks and it would not be well for Army scouts to see what now surprise "Rock” ha* in store for them. No new play* are being Instituted this week. The Irish have known Just what they are to do against the Army for a good whtle. only they have kept the trick* to themselves and will let them all go with a rush when they stack into the military men. It is said that opposing teams have had to use two men to stop the powerful French. Army full back, this season. This may be so, but Rockne has an Idea that’he can be stopped easily.
