DEALERS MADE OPTIMISTIC BY ► MARKET TONE Buying Moderate and Some Leading Stocks React at Close. STEELS SHOW STRENGTH fpeclal to Indiana Daily Times , and Philadelphia Public Ledgerj By MONITOR. NEW YORK, Sept. 17.—Bulls derived much encouragement from the action of Friday’s market and although the well distributed gains In the majority of cases were fractional In extent, the firm undertone v of the general list and the i strength of the steels, it was felt, furnished a sound basis for optimism. The Volume of trading was moderate and some of the recent leaders. Including Baldwin and Mexican Petroleum, reacted from their peak but came back at the close. I The strength of United States Steel I was a feature. This stock came within an eighth of reaching 80 and the turnover of more than 50.000 shares represented fully 10 per cent of the total Oils- were reactionary and there was doing 1n the rails with the excep:lon of Delaware. Lackawanna A- Western, which brake into a spurt of activity with a gain of more than four points. Among the specialties American Linseed shares, both common and preferred, were active and higher. United 'States-Food" Products was a feature of weakness. One of the cheerful items in the week's news was the further gain of I*3 per cent in the Federal Reserv ratio to the t basls of 67.5 per cent. This improvement xvos construed as indicating that last week's loss was nothing more than a temporary setback incidental to Labor day currency demands. The call for funds for crop movement purposes evidently has been offset by gold Imports and commodity liquidation as well as the lc&seued demand for money In business and industry.—Copyright, 1021, by iPublic Ledger Company. WALL, STREET GOSSIP BY MONITOR. It Is reported here that the unemployment conferences in Washington may lead to definite action by the railroads in re-employing many thousands of men. It Is understood representatives of the railroads are entering into a series of conferences with the Interstate Commerce Commission looking to this end. I It is understood the railroads wish a reduction^ of 15 per cent in present rates with a 15 per cent reduction in raiiwav iabor wages, and if granted_they wiil agree to re-employ a given number of workmen. — A report that 'he Baldwin Locomotive Company had taken a large order from soviet government of Russia wag deby President Yauclain. according to reports received here. It is understood the Russian government has bought a considerable quantity of equipment and rolling stock, but these orders are believed to have gone to German plants. Th ! s gossip was responsible for some selling in Baldwin. A reduction in wages, effective Fridav. was announced at the Farrell works of the American Sh et and Tin Plate Company. The mill workers will re'eire about 12 per cent less than the scale heretofore obtaining and tin mill workers about 7 per cent. Approximately eight hundred men will be affected. Delaware, Lackawanna * Western was >ne of the outstanding features >,f itrength in the market. The buying w.is ossed on the dividend payment at the ?nd of this month, and reports that the llvidend rate soon may be increased. This s the season of the year when trader, jsually turn to the long side of the an thracite carriers and Delaware. Lackawanna A Western in addition has the idvantage of being assured of a greater raluation in any unification plan by the Government than the present stock price jives it. Statisticians hare been watching closely the developments of the building industry throughout the country and Wall Street's interest has taken tangible form In the recent sirength of U. S. Realtv. It is understood the George A. Fuller Company, a subsidiary, has taker, contracts since May 1, approximating sl4 - "‘OO.OOO In value. The work calls for the 'onstruction of hotels and business huildngs from Montreal, Canada, to Miami. _ U. S. Food Products declined two points m the knowledge that the company had i note for $4,500,000 at a local bank which matured Friday Officials said the pay rient would not be met in full, but anticipated that an extension would be btained. Products refined is said to be penning at 85 per cent of capacity as ompared with fib per cent a few weeks go Firms which harp advocated the mrchase of this stock claim the increase s due to an enlarged foreign demand int as the company operates a plant in iermany, there is some question in the minds of traders as to the cause of the ncreased output if the semi-official figures are correct. A reduction of one quarter cent in the price of raw sugar has brought that commodity to the lowest record since before the war. The effect of the constant letiine in raw as well as refined sugars has been without effect on the sugar Stocks. American Sugar reflected -some ■light pressure, but there was nothing in [he character of the trading to indicate :hat more than professional operations.— i'ophrlght, 1921, by Public Ledger Comf^any. - In the Cotton Market MEW TORK, s>ppt. 17.—After yesterday's large liquidating movement, the ’otton market opened comparatively steady today.

Stock Market Review i NEW YORK. Sept. 17.—The Evening Sun financial review today said: “Trading - in today’s short session of the stock market disclosed a very good tone in the early dealings, but it was quickly -apparent that there was little buying initiative to be expected. ■*’’Weakness in the petroleum shares seemed to be the principal instrumentality in "heading off such forward tendencies as were manifested. “Very little business was done in the mis"ellaneous stocks. “There was not much change in the market’s position in the second half of the session and trading was largely perfunctory. A mixed movement in local traction shares attracted the same attention. “Bank clearings this week, based on' the financial chronicles compilation with Friday's figures estimated, totaled $6.800,442,877, against $5,192,341,502 last week and $8,932,834,451 in this week last year.” N.

LITTLE TRADE ON STOCK EXCHANGE Market Tone Is Irregular— Mexican Petroleum Down. NEW YORK, Sept. 17.—The stock market closed Irregular today. j There was little feature to the 'trade, buying being on a small scale. Some issues made moderate rallies from the low levels, while others finished around the bottom. Steel Common, after moving up again to 78%, receded to 78% and Baldwin Locomotive finished at 89%. General Asphalt yielded nearly 6 points to 50%. Mexican Petroleum finished 2 points net\ lower at 113%. Most of the other active issues held within a narrow range. Total sales of stocks were 233,000 shares; bonds, $6,643,000. Total sales of stocks this week wero 3,579,4C0 shares; bonds, $71,535,000. (By Thomson & McKinnon.) , Sept. 17— Business today was on a moderate scale. There was a lack of incentive. There was nothing very striking in the overnight news, which was largely of a routine character, though the news from Washington in reference to the sgreement es to the new tax bill and the reports of commercial agancies were in harmony with the views more recently entertained in stock exchange circles, where the opinion is growing that better things are ahead or us. But. so far a* general sentiment, is concerned, there is still a noticeable lack of confidence through the country, which was emphasized by an exceedly pessimistic editorial in' one of our leading journals. It is just suf-h opposition that will make the attainment of the ultimate object more difficult because sentiment after all is one of the essential fundamentals and business makes best progress It when entertains a cheerful view. Omitting front the consideration at the moment the active operations that have been conducted'-recently nnd considering only resonable probabilities dues it seem likely that improvement once started will progress and thus solidify the foundation for a rising stock market and it seems to us that the buyer of securities during reactionary periods will have all the advantage.

(By Thomsom A McKinnon.) —Sept. 17. — YY'heat —Canadian flour is being purchased at domestic prices or cheaper, even with duty Included and Canadian wbea Is not much above an import basis. T'b.s is causing tue trade to realize tnat tayie is no present scarcity of domestic wheat, the present visible accumulation being larger than the average. In addition to this, the chief source of support In times gone by, namely foreign, demand, is not now in evidence. On >top of a withdrawal of foreign demand, the domestic flour buyer is not coufideui of values, and demand irom that source is lessening. Recent rains over the Northwest have been used as an argument for higher prices on the theory that the movement would be delayed aud the quality damaged. We submit the idea that a scarcity of good wheat front our own crops meats an enforced importation ft-otn our northern neighbor, the ultimate result being an increase in domestic supplies. The market is now in position where it is very much in need of strengthening motives, aud is also in position to respond readily to any Increase in the visible accumulation, which condition ts not impossible in Monday s showing. We are expecting still further recession. Coarse grains—The important outlet for corn, namely export business has disappeared, lit fact, it is reported by cable, that Argentina is underselling America at some European points. Shippers are very slow buyers of the daily receipts. Count ty offerings for deferred shipment are light, but consignments are rather free. There is no evidence of any export business in oats despite the reported inquiry from abroad. The marker is laboring under the weight of an enormous visible supply. 1 revisions—Larger packers were buyers of October lard. There was aiso some short covering. The market seems liquidated of the nearby deliveries, but not of the January anti March. Hogs may rule steady for a time, but a liberal movement is expected to continue.
