DECLINES ARE NUMEROUS ON STOCK ’CHANGE Some Coppers Find New Low Levels During Day. Special to Ind.ana Dally Timas and Philadelphia Public Ledger. By MONITOR. NEW YORK. Aug. 24.—Although declines were quite numerous throughout the Hat Tuesday. there was a sprinkling of gains that served to give the market a somewhat mixed appearance Weakness Id the steels was a prominent feature of the early trading and later In the afternoon whoD the steela showed more steadiness, the coppers were under pressure, with some of the Issues making new low levels on the poor earniugs statements ol the porphyry group. In addition to this development quite a number of tpcciab ties showed pronounced x nknrst. Among these were the Mercantile Marius shares. American International. Central Leather. Bears Roebuck and some of the in active tobacco shares. Mexican oils were higher on the report that a committee of oil men was going to Mexico to codfer on the oil export tax The advance was not fully maintained, but sentiment In regard to the future of these stocks It somewhat more hopeful. The rails, as might tie expected, responded to the unfavorable impression created by the practical certainty that no final action will be taken by Congress on the funding bill. The passage of this measure by the House is not construed as any assurance of early action by the Senate or a guaranty that the action when taken will be aa favorable as the provisions of the current bill call for. About the chief thing to be said in favor with railroads at present is their good showing in July aa a result of the reduced operating costa emanating from the recent wage reductions. So far as industrials are concerned, it is beiieved It will lie a long time before imany corporations can show sufficient profits to stimulate confidence in their financial future.—Copyright, 1921, by Public Ledger Cos. WALL STREET GOSSIP. By Mentor. The Mexican oil stocks were leaders In the sharp rally Tuesday morning on the ever nignt news of the departure for Mexico of a party of influential oil men. It was this development that was resntnsible for the intimations last week ttt a substantial rally would take place In Mexican Petroleum this week. There were large otferings around 95, and the selling vas of a quality which is considered good. Belling in the low priced Issues has been a permanent feature of recent market sessions. This is reported to be due to the attitude of bauking institutions in looking askau-e at them as collateral for loans. Such issues as Columbia Graphophone, American Ship and Commerce and others of that class long since have been taboo at the banks. The executive committee of the United States Rubber met and it is said discussed at length the six months operation statement. No date has been set for making these figures public, but after the meeting it was intimnted they would be released before the end of tbe week There are some reports tbe figurs will Show an operating deficit of s'2o.otx*.ooo for the first half year. The Porphyr Copper Companies made their reports for the second quarter and the figures were diaconcerting in view of the shutting down hf the properties. Ray Consolidated reported a deficit of 4370,206, aa compared with a deficit of •181.200 for the previous quarter and a net Income of 3387.255 for the curre spending quarter last year Chino showed an operating loss of $350,132. which, ol Course, is ail deficit. Nevada Consol Mated reported an operating loss ol •266.695, and a deficit of $278,858. I'tah showed an operating losa of $589,665 and a deficit of $444,226. Dividend paymeni el 3812,245 resulted in a net deficit ol •1,256.414.

The figures of Utah give rise to the question as to the maintenance of dlvt- j bend payments. While the company al- ! ways has maintained a strong rash position. with the present outlook for the metal market most uncertain. It is felt ; vhe management may decide to eliminate further payments until conditions iiu- j firove. There h-is been some distress sell ng of this stock, which was hastened by the publication of the figures. The Union Pacific reports net earn- j Ing income for July of. $2,102,156, •n incrrase of $1,851,547 For the seven months a decrease of 57.071.040. as com- ; pared with the same period last year, is reported. For the first time in several weeks, buying by important interests has come Into Chandler Motors. At the close of last week some orders were placed, and these have been augmenfed on a s-ale down Houses fatn'liar with the situa tion in the stock declare there is no fixed figure at which the decline will be •topped, but that scale buying orders evidently are absorbing such offerings as come to market. Baldwin Locomotive made anew low level for the present movement, but by noon had recovered nearly 2 points, present operations in the stock largely confined to the speculative group which controls its market, and snpport stock taken on a scale down is sold promptly on any rally. The selling is described as being better than the buying A further reduction tn the price of refined sugar did not have any material effect on the prices of sugar arocks. Cuba Cane Corporation was w-eak as it has been for some time on a report that developments in the immediate future will be of a most unfavorable nature. t'nited States Steel was among those issues making anew low for the move pvent despite reports from (Chicago of the placing of ■ considerable tounago of structural steel for a Los Angeles building operation. The Independent steels also were weak, although they rallied In sympathy with the general market. Trailers expressed the opinion the steel stocks will work lower, but due to their relatively low level and the rather thin market which exists in most of them. are inclined to take other and more active stocks for their operations Declaration of the regular dividend in cash on Famous Players served as an excuse for opening that stock higher, but most of the gain was lost In the first few minntes of trading. The earning statement showing more than $26 per share for the common received favorable comment. hut the Street was Inclined to believe it represented water that had run over the dam, and Is not particularly optimistic as to the immediate future of the Industry. Directors of the Cora Cola Company met here and declared the semi-annual dividend of $3.50 per share on the preferred stock. From a low of 19 hhe price has advnnced to 35 without any public explanation. The executive committee met in Atlanta. In some quarters It Is said here the recent advance la price has been due to an attempt to obtain control of the company in the open market and that tuis effort has been •aecessful. Net earnings of approxl- ? lately $500,000 In June and SOOO,OOO in aly will. It Is said, be Increased to OKre than $1,000,000 monthly by the end of this year when the last of the highpriced sugar which the company has on Band will have been used. It is reported control has passed to a highly speculative group. A number of consignments of gold from South America were received during the day. Shipment* came from Cnracao from various Central American ports and from Demarrara. Considerable interest was manifest In a ahipment of . Liberty Bonds consigned to tbs Mereani file Bank of America brought on the , AUlanca. The value of these bonds U I pot given, but the consignment is taken as an indication of the efforta being made to liquidate thla institution’s '■ pasfrete. —Copyright, 1921, by Public

(By Thomson & McKinnon.) —Aug. 24 Try as we may to find something cheerful and encouraging in the existing situation, it roust be confessed that if there is anything good here il is decidedly obscured. On the surface at least the market situation is about as unsatisfactory as it has been at any time this year. There have been times when we were led to hope that liquidation had ceased, but it is unite evident that this was an erroneous Impression and while the vol ume of liquidation sales is smaller it s Just as effective. The trouble is that business has shown no recuperative power, and in some Industries it is distressing, as was disclosed In the recent statements of a number of our copper romnanies. it is no wonder that stockholders grow tired and throw their stocks upon the market. And to make matter worse we have the soectaele of railroad brotherhoods throwing out suggestions of a strike to discourage the railroads from pursuing a course of bringing Insuaic mid expenditures to a rational basis, and this nn doubtedly accounts for the pressure that has been noticeable in tbe railroad group since yesterday morning. The professional element, using their position in the market and selling from this source, mayo be expected on all tha bulges. TWENTY STOCKS AVERAGE.

GRAIN MARKET TONE IRREGULAR Fluctuations Due to Trade Regulations Passed by Congress. CHICAGO. Aug. 24. Grain quotations fluctuated fractionally and irregularly on the Chicago Board of Trade today. After a slight advance at the opening, due to the reaction from the yassage of grain trading regulatory legislation by Congress, fractional losses were regis tered by some of the prices, while others advanced slightly. Provisions were irregular. September wheat opened unchanged at $1.17% and closed %<’ higher. December wheat opened at $1.19%, up %c, and closed %<• lower. September corn opened at 53%e. up %e and closed up %•’. Dec<‘iuuer corn opened up Vic at 53%c and closed un changed. September oats opened at 34%c, up %e a-ud dosed up %c. December oats opened at 37%c, up %e and closed %c off. (By Thompson & McKinnon.) —Aug. 24 Wheat—The foreign demand for wheat remains in the tnarket. Foreign sales from here yesterday ure estimated at around one and one-half millions bushels and in addition to this there Is considerable Improvement in the milling o>inand, this demand being more pro nouuced in the market* of tbe Southwest and Northwest than here. Offerings in tbe Southwest are reported as very light and local mills are taking what little is offered and the result is Increases In prices. While the merchandising demand is improving, it is not possible to dia cover any broadening of the outside interest In the more differed deliveries, therefor values react from the advances. We are inclined to believe that this condition will prevail for sometime, pos sibly when it has discovered what effect upon the market the movement of spring crop will produce. We see no reason to anticipate lower prices, but as noted above, we exeet the market to remain around the present level. Coarse Grain—There has been conslil erable firmness in the cash corn, the demand being principally from xport in tcrcsts. This firmness is reflected in the September delivery, cash handlers being the principal buyers of that future. Transactions Id oats have been mainly in the wn.v of changing holdings from September to December. The country offerings of this grain are light, but the demand Is confined entirely to domestic sources and is not urgent. We do not forsee any important price action in either direction, but feel that bulb market* will show firmness Provisions—it is daibaed that Ihe for eigu trade in lard Is better This is supported by the fact that larger packers were taking the nearby deliveries They were also buyers of rilis. More eonfi dome has been displayed by holders than for some time, the market showing underlying firmness. CHICAGO GRAIN TABLE. —Aug. 24 WHEAT— Open. High. Low Close.

There was another dull day of trade on the cattle market. There was another day without trade. Receipts in cattle ran close to 1,500 fresh, while there was a considerable number of stale cattle held in the pens from thf market of the past few days. Packers were lnd'sposed to buy a good supply of cattle, due to the opening of the western cattle season and a slack in beef trade in the East and locally. Most of the local packing concerns also have their coolers practically full of beef. Prices on the stuff that sold were lower, but few sales were made. There were close to thirty five loads of steers on the market and a similar number of butcher stuff. With 700 calves on the market and the demand slow, veal prices were 50 cents to $1 lower.

RECOVER 30 STOLEN CARS IN NINE DAYS Detectives Say ‘Joy Riders’ Responsible for Majority of Thefts. Thirty stolen automobiles have been recovered by Lieutenant McMurty aud his squad of automobile detectives since Aug. 15. Forty-two have been reported stolen and eight of that number were taken last night and early toda, recording to Herbert R. Fletcher, supervisor of detectives. An automobile belonging to James H. Carnine, 1431 Hoyt avenue, which was stolen last night at Market and Delaware streets, was recovered this morning standing in trout of 312 South Hamilton avenue. Police, who investigated two hold ups in which a confectionery and a restaurant were robbed, believe Mr. Caruine’s car had been stolen and used by the bandits who then deserted it Two other machines were recove rc i which had been stolen during the night. One belonged to George Robinette.fi 2818 North New Jersey street, and was found two miles south of Maywood, and one belonging to Albert Henry, 1186 Kentucky avenue, was found at Blaine avenue and Ray street. A machine reported by the Taylor Carpet Company as stolen was found in the possession of Robert McCray, 1130 Finley avenue. He was arrested by Patrolman O'Connor and was charged with vehicle taking. McCray told detectives he is clerk in a downtown cigar store. He said one of the store's regular customers came in yesterday and told him that he had just bought anew machine and McCray said he asked the privilege of driving it home to dinner. Soon after he had taken possession of the auto he was arrested. McCray was released on his own recognizance when he reached headquarters and told detectives he would bring the man who had given him the machine to police headquarters. He returned to the detectives' office a short time later and brought with him Janies Kay, 18, 725 North East street. Ray also was charged with vehicle taking. Detectives declare ‘'Joy riders” are responsible for the large number of automobiles stolen. They say they will steal a machine, drive it until it runs out of gasoline or "breaks down - ’ and then desert It. * Marriage Licenses Diamond Beetley, 115 Euclid 21 Helen Howard, R.

COUNTY MUST MAKE REQUEST The State highway commission cannot undertake to make an examination of tbe t condition of the Kentucky avenue bridge without a formal invitation from the Marion County commissioners, according to a letter written by William J. Titus, bridge engineer of tiie highway department, to Frank C. Lingenfelter, city engineer, today. ' The board of public works, which is objecting to the use of the bridge in its. present condition, has invited the highway department to make an investiga'iou and report. County officials, however* are objecting to the bridge being closed. The letter to Mr. Lingenfelter follows : “Referring to our telephone oonver sat'on when you called yesterday, please note that in accordance with the statutes under which we are operating, it will be necessary for the board of commissioners of Marion County to present a request that we make an examination of and report on the present condition of the bridge over White River on Kentuckyavenue, before wo undertake the workr which you say the Indianapolis board of public works has requested, perhaps jointly with the board of county commissioners. “We are very glad, indeed, to assist the counties and other municipalities by making Investigations and reports on present or proposed structures but feet that such work should be thorough and not based on any snap judgment which we might form from a hurried inspection. I believe very strongly that this policy, which we insist upon in our own work, should especially be adhered to in a bridge job of such magnitude ss the one in question. “If, therefore, the board of commissioners will write us a letter requesting , us to make such investigation and report, we will arrange to start the work at once. Our report would, of course, be made to tlie parties requesting it and would involve no obligation other than the payment of the actual cost of the work done” MEET TO DISCUSS LAND PURCHASE Session Continued One Week From Today. Officials and citizens Interested in tbe purchase by the city of the land for the proposed convalescent park oetween the city and the Robert W.
