STOCKS TOUCH NEW LOW LEVELS Market Sustains Heavy Close —Mexican Petrol Down. NEW YORK, An* 13.—Th® gtcck m*rkt closed hea rj today, many of the leading Issue* falling to new low figure* for the day. Mexican Petroleum was again in tupply, dropping to a lot* of abont 5 §olnt from thi* morning’* high, and tudebaker, after recovering to 72%, yielded again to 72%. International Harvester made another new low record for the year. 09%. Industrial Alcohol rallied 1 point to 47. while General Asphalt yielded 1 point to 43%. Some of th* railroad Issue* were also In supply, Baltimore & Ohio dropping 1 point to $6%. United State* Steel hung around 72%. Total tales of stocks were 419,500 shares; bonds, $6,475,000. (By Thomson A McKinnon.) —Aug. 15. When a market, as Is at present, absolutely ignores all news of cormtructlve character for price-making purrfjses and instead takes cognizance of various happenings that would appear to be the final clean-up of an unprofitable period, having day after day or depression w;tn no Indication of demand either present or prospective slfficient to absorb the offerings without price concessions it is time to give sober second thought as to whether or not general business iinfirovement is as close at hand as we would ike to believe history records that tho stock market discounts some times months in advance important changes In conditions. There Is no evidence of this as yet. Poring July and early August considerable accumulation of securities was noted, in preparation for an uward swing this fall. During the past week or two many of these stocks have been put back In the market at a lower price In some instances than that at which they were purchased. Much dependence for a better market has been placed on the forthcoming railroad and tax legislation, but so far the market shows no disposition to discount such action. Today’s market has been a repltltton of that of many days past, dull and dragging as to the general list, but with conceded weakness in a fe wissues. Conditions may build up a short interest sufficient to give the market occasional upward spurts, but until such time as there is ground for belief in a decided and immediate business betterment. which would be accompanied by general investment demand, little can be looked for In the way of permanence to sny rally which may occur.

TRADE IN GRAINS EXTREMELY" DULL Speculators Become Panicky and Withdraw From Pit, CHICAGO. Aug. 15.—Withdrawal of many panicky speculators from the market caused a dull dry on the Chicago Board of Trade. Professionals did little buying or selling, fearing the trend of recent legislation aimed at Speculation and also the general attitude of farmers against operations in the pit. The frame of mind of operators and not nows from the outside world was the chief factor In influencing prices. Provisions were irregular. September wheat opened at $1.24%. up %e, and closed %c lower. December wheat opqned %c higher at $1.26% and closed %e lower. September corn opened nt 56%c, off %e, amt c’osed unchanged. December corn opened %c higher at 55%c and closed off %o. September oats opened, off %c at 35%c and closed %c higher. December oats opened at 38%c, up %e, and closed %c lower. (By Thomson & McKinnon.) —Aug. 15. Wlieat—While the cash situation in winter wheat keeps gradually hardening, the speculative end is still quiet and running within small price ranges. The spring wheat start continues slow, with low grades dragging a little, but choice wheat In good demand. A great deal of the wheat that has moved lately Is in direct channel* for clearing from senhoard and Gulf ports. Gulf bids were again higher today, with exporters taking so much wheat that millers will fittu difficult to supply their needs at going prices. Omaha reported urgent cash wheat demand and estimated* 75 to 90 per cent of the whoat in Nebraska had moved Clearances from Galveston for the week were 3.200,000 bushels aud North American clearances for the last week were 12,600,000 bushels, for flour and wheat. Kansas City eavh red wheat sold 5c higher and all kinds there were 2 to 4c up with good demand. The visible increase was about a* expected and had little effect. The apathy of the speculative public is still the noticeable thing but we see no Indications yet of anything more than temporary easy places In wheat and any awakened Interest should be a stimulus to prices Coarse Grains —Corn held rather steady, with exporters in the market. Ail crop reports were favorable aud estimates on the movement from first hands were for a libera! run. September corn was bought at times by the leading elevator lntorest. oats were heavy under liquidation, many people either selling September, outright or selling September and replacing with December. Provisions Hogs were strong at around sll and there was a little levs selling prexsure on product. We f,— l enough export business is being done on easy places mid that the domestic is taking quite a little stuff too so that values should shew some stability.

Hodgin, primary campaign manager fOT Samuel Lewis Shank, Republican nominee for mayor, had left the regular Republican organization and would not accept a desk at city headquarters were set at rest today when Dr. Hodgin appeared at the city committee rooms In the Letncke Annex and went to work. The reports that Dr. Hodgin was “out of line” were founded, for the must part, upon the fact that he has nut been seen around headquarters fur several days. The doctor said he had not been at headquarters fur two simple reasons, the first of which was that his automobile was stolen and he had spent two days getting it back, and the second was that Mrs. Hodgin had become seriously ill following a minor operation and it was necessary that he remain with her almost constantly during her illness. Dr. Hodgin said there is no truth In the reports and that he will not be found working for Republican success as usual. A place for him at city headquarters was created ns part of the terms upon which the Shank and News-Jewett factions declared peace a few weeks ago. L‘r. Hodgin had been a candidate for city chairman to succeed Irving . Leinhux, lu case the latter resigned. He, Joseph Hogue and Herman Rlkho.ff were designated as Shank leaders who were to have a share In the direction of activities at city headquarters with Vice Chairman Ernest L. Kingston, Secretary Leonard Jt. Quill and others counted members of the Xews-Jewett faction. Organization for registration and conference of precinct committeemen with their executive committees are the principal features of the Republican program fpr the week. Joseph Ilogue is in charge of registration work. Most of the committeemen will meet with their aides In each precinct Wednesday evening. Secretary Quill announced.

MARKET ACTION IS CONTRARY TO DEVELOPMENTS Influences Operative in Se* curity Circles Are of Nature to Bring Confidence. 'stocks ARE CHEAP MONITORS WALL STREET REVIEW. NEW YORK, Ang. 15.—Movements in the stock market during the week ones more have run contrary to the charaete.l of the known developments. News has been constructive and encouraging. but the action of tho market in the main has been disappointing. Even the stock explanation that “something is' hanging over tho market," famishes no tangible clew to the mystery. The episode of the mercantile bank of the America's apparently has passed its most disturbing phase, and may be dismissed as a menaefc to the loeni financial situation. Tbe Influences ordinarily operative In the security markets have been of a nature to stimulate confidence. For example, there could be nothing more calculated to Instill optimism than the announcement from Washington that the Nation’s tax bills are to be cut by more than half a billion, and that the exce eV profits tax is to go. Enormous economies should result from the discussions st the coming disarmament conference, and it seems strange the stock market should wait for actualities In view of the substantial shadows they are now casting before them. MONEY SITUATION IS IMPROVING. Moreover the money situation Is Improving and promises stlil further betterment. Little attention, perhaps, has been paid to the greatly lessened demands for | crop movement purposes, compared, for | instance, with last year. As an ltlustra- ; .ion. it might be pointed out that we have 'he prospect for a wheat crop, both spring and winter varieties of 737.000,000 bushels compared with 787.000,000 bushels last year. The August 1 price per bushel to the farmers as estimated by the Department of Agriculture, is a trifle under SLCS a bushel, compared with a little * more than $2.32 a bushel last year. This calls, theoretically, for nearly SSOO.OOO 000 less than was required last year. In the case of cotton the figures are even more striking. At this time last year a crop of more than 13,000.000 bales was about to move to market, and the farm price on Ang. 1 was 36.S cents per pound. This jn-ant a tentative demand for about $2,40o,000.(>00. This year with a crop forecasted at about 8.000,000 bales and a farm price of 9.8 cents a pound, the theoretical requirements are only about $400,000,000 for full two billions less than last year.*’ In the opinion of sober minded Judges who do their own thinking free from the contagion of pessimism stocks ridiculously cheap. Weak spots exist, no doubt, but in the opinion of these observers the present level discounts any probcbla development of a disturbing nature. Wall street holdings have been reduced to a minimum, as recent figures on brokers' loans indicate. If further liquidation is impending, one wonders from what source it is to come. In all probability the predictions of further pressure are based on habits of pessimism formed during more than a year and a half of liquidation. HANK LETS BUSINESS SHIFT. I. is only fair to set forth the theory upon which prevailing pessimism la based. There is general admission that the hanking situation has improved materially. That Is, it Is conceded the banka themselves have in many instances succeeded in extricating themselves rrom numerous entanglements that hate caused widespread anxiety until recently. It seems strange that this improvement In the banking structure should furnish capital for bearish arguments, but it does, it is contended, for example, that the banks, now that they bave worked themselves out of embarrassing positions, will be inclined to stand aloof and permit tho luckless corporations and firms to shift for themselves, in this ordeal only the fittest will survive, say these financial Cassandras. and the citrnax of receiverships will mark the end of th® agony. This may be perfectly logical, bnt tho element of the human equation is being overlooked. Economic tendencies proceed along stern lines, but they do not entirely overlook the principle of corapt#raise. Many a concern whose mis*aJka' ' might have entitled it to be consign“d\vd the limbo of insolvency are likely to bJ helped through the valley of the shadow with none but the directors cognizant of the perils encountered. In the recovery which is believed to be not far distant, the railroads are expected to reap the largest initial share. Already their economics are beginning to bear fruit in substantially increased earnings, and in the event of favorable action by Congress on the relief suggested by th® Frgsident. tho rails probably will be th® leaders in tha embryonic stage of th* next bull market.—Copyright, 1921, by th® Public Ledger Company. ’ — LL2_= " ."
