OPTIMISM IS REFLECTED IN STOCK SALES Bullish Overtures of Market Found in Prominent Holdings. IMPROVEMENT IS NOTED \ Special to Indiana Dally Time* and Philadelphia Public Ledger. NEW YORK, Sept. 12.—As the week progressed it brought more evidence of increasing optimism in market circles and not the least important incident wag the bullish position openly announced by a speculative figure who undoubtedly for more than a year has been the most active individual element on the bear side. Pools are beginning to get active. ■ Evedlnce of such bullish overtures Is found in the action of such stocks as Mexican Petroleum, Baldwin Locomotive. Corn Products, Kelly-Springfield, Qen- j eral Asphalt and Sears-Roebuck, with i the practical certainty that the list will increase In the market shows a rising i tendency. Os course, belated bears virtuously : will charge manipulation and assert that any upward movement will be short lived and terminated upon the distribution of any stock held by the pools. It will be : -said further that advances are being engi- j net red merely to enable old holders t®, get out even, profits being forgotten. ; Os course, this is a narrow and partisan • view to take. Upward movements cannot be engineered unless conditions are favorable for such tactics. Nothing of the sort would have been possible In the last few months, for example, and the fact that it may be possible now is an underlying indication that the situation has improved at least to a certain extent. Moreover, the contention that holders of stocks are working for an advance mere-ly-to "get out" Is sheer absurdity. The claimants of this theory are absolutely In the dark and even If they were mind readers, there is no guaranty that minds might not be changed. DOMESTIC REPORTS ARE FAVORABLE. Developments duiing the week from a domestic standpoint at least, have been of a favorable character. Not so much can be said of the foreign political and financial situation Marks have been extremely weak and the position of Germany in respect to finances undoubtedly is precarious. The collapse of the mark below one cent In some respects may be a reflection of the so-called “catastrophe boom," but it shows still more the cleavage between Germany's Improvement and the fall In her currency due to inflation. The Irish situation, moreover, continues to furnish a disturbing political factor ; that may menace the security of Europe, j In the United States improvement con- j tlnnes. The brightest spot at the moment is the textile industry, both in the woolen and cotton goods division. Scare- , ity of finished products is apparent and j buyers are showing an anxiety, which presages a change to a "sellers' ” market • in this department. The stik market also! is showing signs of life. Steel ingot production is In increasing and products for structural purposes are being turned out In larger qantities in response tc demand. Undoubtedly the Improved aspects o* the agricultural situation have furnished much of the occasion for increasing optimism. As has heen pointed out in this column previously, the rise In cotton due to a short crop also affects a large carryover of old cotton, thus adding materially to the wealth of the cotton belt. The Department of Agriculture this week forecasted the yield of all wheat at 754.000.000 bushels and the corn crop at 5.156.000.000. The wheat yield compares with 750.000.000 bushels last year. Around I current prices it provides the grower a j fair return, particularly as it was raised this year with cheaper labor than for ! several years p_ast. Reports from the | wholesaling districts of New York, Chi- ! cago. Phiiadelpnia and Baltimore report a large influx of country buyers, particularly from the South. Business is looking up and this appears to be the fundamental reason for the Improvement in security prices and financial sentiment. —Copyright, 1921, by Public Ledger Company. CHICAGO REPORTS IRON GROUP GAIN By C. B. EVANS. Bpeeiai to Indiana Dally Times and Philadelphia Public Ledger. CHICAGO. Sept. 12.—While the United States Steel Corporation continues to re- i port decreases In unfilled orders and 1 most of the widelv-known producers of steel are uniting for something to turn up, which long has refused to turn, there are tome developments in this part of the field that mgy have considerable meaning. The American Radiator Company, which enjoys a high standing not only In this country but in Europe, has raised Its prices and now is swamped with orders. The Kewacee Boiler Company, having a much larger function In the world than would be Indicated by the small Illinois town where Us works are located, has no considerable amount of its own products on band, has abandoned plans based on the dullness heretofore prevailing and will start at once on a new program. Plckands A Brown, known everywhere as producers of pig-iron, have had a business this month twice as great as that of the corresponding period of last year, and its prices are up from $lB at the low to $22. They have no fnr- v naces in blast now but their yards contain a large supply of pig-iron. SMALLER INDUSTRIES TO REFLECT REVIVAL. No one of these concerns Is large by companson with the United States Steel Corporation, but all are highly responsible and evidence as to the condition of business coming from them is of much value. When the grand movement forward starts it will not be first announced by he biggest corporations. It will be a result of revivals at many points, an accumulation of small orders, a movement on the part of individuals In response to the demands of their own business. For that reason we cannot expect that there will be anything spectacular springing up all of a sudden some day like the rise In cotton, but a steady expansion. There ia no revival yet in the Iron and steel interest broadly considered but there is here and there considerable gain, part of which is no doubt due to the natural lift in affairs in the last three months \>t the year, when money Is realized from the products of the soli acd when In he eourse of their labors the farmers find that they are short of equipment. In normal times It might be expected that, the great Importations of gold Into this country would cause a revival in business, and eventually these Importations will have an effect, but at the present time the tide of liquidation Is so strong as to counteract influence coming from the precious metal. As slow accounts at the banks are liquidated, however, ready capital becomes more abundant, and one hears of large boards that are ready to be loaned or to be put into active business. If the abuse of the too great percentage of Federal taxation running agiinst large Incomes, as compared with the levies on small Incomes, were abated, we doubtless should see a change In the aspect of American affairs. There is now no sign of currency Inflation On the contrary the statistics have disclosed for months past a decrease In the amount of money percaplta in circulation In the United States. LIQUIDATION IN INDUSTRY SLOW. Bat we cannot forget the large um-

Markß Are Down NEW YORK, Sept. 12.—The German mark today fell to the lowest price In Us l.lstory. Its value on the foreign exchange market hers was less than 1 cent—oo93, to be exact. Disquieting unconfirmed rumors of the possibility of a moratorium being declared In Germany was re*por>*lble for the decline. The pre-war Talue of the mark was about 24 cents.

Liquidation has been on a tremendous scale in the stock market In the paat two years, but that la a place where things come quickly. Liquidation among merchants and manufacturer!, must be relatively slow and testimony in this city indicates that It has gone only a small part of the distance which the backers consider it necessary to compass in order to have our affairs in tolerably sound condition. But meanwhile this debtor class has learned a few things about making both ends meet. They are not buying unnecessary articles right and left as they were at one time, but have chastened thetr desire* down to reasonable limits. Thus they will be able to pick up, and when 100,000,000 people are practicing the virtue of economy the accumulations are soon found to be big. When this process comes to a meeting point with a well advanced liquidation of loans, the country so tar as relates to its own affairs will be in excellent condition. It will then be a question of what the rest of the world will do and we cannot have tha most hopeful feeling In that direction. For rears yet Europe will be an unfavorable factor in the doings of I mankind, compared with Its wonderfu' j leadership in former times.—Copyright, 1921, by Public Ledger Company.

(By Thomson A- McKinnon) —Sept. 10— The individual who Is in a frame of mind not hedged about by prejudice or undue pessimism will have no difficulty In finding much to encourage him in hie surroundings as well as in his observations of national condition*. If any reliance is to be placed upon the reports fiom various sections and various industries. there can be no doubt of improvement. The improvement may be small, but it is always that way at the start. Given time, expansion will come. The stock market, the most perfect mechanism that ever was invented to detect coming changes In business, shows unmistakably that Improvement is ahead of us. Those familiar with stock market movements know that unless conditions were favorable, no financial combination j oould succeed in advancing values and I maintaining the advance. Can there be any doubt of the per- , manency of the market improvement 7 I As values move forward the volume in- 1 creases. The ranks of buyers increase' as the light Is seen. Today, the volume suggests a material increase In the public participation in the market. Wise leadership will not permit a violent upward swing and. therefore at fre- '• quent intervals, especially after sharp | bulges, long stocks will appear on the market but with the trend unmistakably I upward ample Support may be expected on each recession.

The increase in the visible supply is due to further clearing up of old cccumulations at terminal tracks. The embargo laid against Montreal by one railroad has been modified to the extent of the Institution of a permit system. It Is believed that Canadian grain will be given preference. It Is probable that liqulda tions has about become completed and if so th market will recover readily whenever exporters see fit to reenter'market. v> p favor the buying side at the present level. } naree Grains—Rough weather over tha West and declines in prices have hut off: offerings from the country. Corn Is still is demand from export interests but oats are slow. The southern trade is still consuming jts own crops, but will be In a position to enter northern markets within a short time. The present movement of corn from the country is expected to clean up such surplus as" the producer Is willing to sell. We feel that both of these market* should recover with any strength in wheat. Provisions—Outside of some commission demand for January lard, there has been no Important buying. Cash trade is tame and tho tone of the entire market I* not good.

Local packers bought the bulk of the receipts. A slack in pork trade, domestic as well as foreign, and a tendeny among the packers to lower prices In anticipation of tho opening of the winter paeklng season were market factors. Light swine generally sold at $9. with a few sale" at $9 10. mediums sold at $8.0003.7.5 snd heavies generally at $8.50. The bulk of the sales were made around the $0 mark. With 800 fresh cattle on the market ■ and a tendency on the part of buvers i to bid lower, trade in cattle was slow 1 But little stuff moved during the open- j ing hour of the market, although trade did show a little life later. Chief cattle buyers of two of the prin- j cipal local packers were not at the yards and that had a tendency to weaken trade. Prices on the cattle that moved were barely steady on the good butcher grades ; to weak on Bteers. [ Veal values were steady, with 610 calves on the market and a fair demand displayed by shippers with Eastern connections.
