FLOOR EFFORT TO BOOST R AILS NOT EFFECTIVE Listless Trading Leads to General Decline and Some Weakness. PIG IRON OUTPUT GAINS Special to Indiana Daily Times and Philadelphia Public Ledger. By MOM TOK. NEW YORK, Oct. 6.—After a rather listless trading period for the first three hours or so, the stock market turned somewhat reactionary and a general decline took place v-ith rails and Industrials showing a reactionary tendency. In a few cases positive weakness developed, as cxempl'fied by Mexican Petroleum and the Pan-American shares. Other oils were more or less under pressure, but no decided downward tendency developed. In the motor shares, PierceArrow issues were weak, with the preferred declining to anew low level at 111. Floor professionals made an effort to bid up the rails today under the leadership of Lehigh Valley, but the movement did not attract a following. Another chain store stock, Jones Brothers Tea. has been showing a good deal of activity, with an upward tendency of bite, with the buying based on reports of large earnings and excellent dividend prospects. Steel shares did not respond to the moderately optimistic tone of the weekly review by the Iron Age published Wednesday. The daily average output of pig iron in September shows a comfortable increase over August, and further gains in blast furnace operations Is reported. The chief feature of outside interest was a substantial gain in practically air the foreign exchanges.—Copyright, 1921. by Public Ledger Company. ~Vo Held on Charge of Robbing Miner Two men were arrested today by detectives who allege they are the men who assaulted Fred Patterson, a delegate to the coal miners’ convention, and rohbed him of $228 at the Oakley Club. Kentucky avenue and Eagle Creek, Tuesday night. Thomas Hogan, 20, 3503 East Michigan street, and Frank Mose. 28. 227 South Illinois street, are charged with assault and battery and petit larceny. The reason for the minor charge for such a serious offense, detectives say. Is that Patterson soon will leave the city for his home in Indiana. Pa., and they wish to have the case tried in city court at an early date. Three women and three men were in,the rarty that went to the OakJoy club for a chicken dinner, and the police say one of the women confessed she saw the two men who are under arrest strike and roll Patterson. A man giving the same name and address rs Frank Moss was arrested yesterday on a bootlegging charge in company with two other men of the "levee gang.” Mosc's right name, the police who charge hint with bootlegging say, is Charles Miller.

MEXICAN PETROL FEATURES STOCKg General List Displays Steady 'Tone—Rails Lower. NlNv YORK, Oct. C.—Continued pressure against Mexican Petroleum proved the onlv feature at the opening of the stock market today. That issue declined 1% points to 05%. The rest of the list displayed a steady tone, showing only fractional changes from last night's closing figures. Steel common was unchanged at 78%: Baldwin, % of a point lower at 85% and Studebnker Vi of a point lower at 71%. Pan-American Petroleum sold up 1 point to 42%. The market turned strong in the forenoon and many issues made good gains. Mexican Petroleum sold up to 95% and American Sugar refining roSe 1% points, flora ie low to 55. Coppers were strong. Anaconda and Utah advancing 1 point each. American-Sumntra showed little change despite the passing of the common dividend. Steel common rose to above 79. (By Thomson A McKinnon) The stock market continues to be mainly a professional one, but a favorable tendency was noted today in an increase of commission house buying during tne weak moments. This may ultimately prove to be a determining factor, but at the present time this demand from the public is not in volume sufficient to counter-balance the pressure which the profo-ssional element must bring to bear. Today, pressure was centered mainly on Mexican Petroleum and the various stocks that constitute the tobacco group. American Sumatra, as was clearly indicated by its market action for some time, made a poo-r financial showing and with the dividend passed a little ammunition was afforded the bears element, inasmuch as they used this particular instance as an argument against the entire tobacco- group. The steel shares held fairly well anil increasing activity is reported from various sections in the industry. This has even extended to a more active market in scrap metal. Rails were stationary during most of the day. The feature in this group has been Lehigh Valley, due to the expectation of a very favorable segregation, plan which was to have been submitted to the court today. Up to the time of writing no particulars of the plan have been given publicity. The market acts poorly when considered in tlie light of business develop ments and it is likely that it may continue reactionary for a short period. TWENTY STOCKS AVERAGE. NEW YORK. Oct. 6.—Twenty industrial stocks Wednesday averaged 70.16. off .49 per cent. Twenty active rails averaged 73.76, off .30 per cent.

WHEAT VALUES CLOSE LOWER Corn and Oats Register Slight in Final Trade. CHICAGO, Oct. 6.—Trade in grains .was irregular and unsettled on the Chicago board of trade today, wheat showing some losses, white corn and oats registered slight gains. Liquidation of the Simons, Day & Cos., threxv considerable wheat on the market, causing new iow prices for the season. There was a fair demand for corn after the opening, which was weak. Oats declined at the opening, resulting in, considerable buying strength. Provisions were irregular. December wheat unchanged at $1.11% and dropped %c in later trading. May wheat opened off %o at $1.15% and dropped to $1.15. December corn after opening off %c at 48%c, Regained %c. May corn opened off (4c at 51%c .in/1 gained (ic later. December oats after opening down %o at. 35c. remained unchanged. May oats opened off %c at 39%c and remained unchanged. (By Thomson A- McKinnon.) —Oct. o. Wheat—There have been evidences of rather thorough liquidation in the wheat market, which condition, coupled with a little more interest on the part of exporters may be assumed to be the reasons for the reactionary tendency in prices. Country offerings are reported as light, because of the decline in price. Interior southwestern mills are over-bid-ding other buyers. In Canada it is said the country loadings are large andeasiness in the Winnipeg market would corroborate this. The seaboard claims sales of 2.600,(K)0 bushels yesterday and 2,000,000 today, mainly Manitobas, with Italy thp prominent buyer. It is said that a German grain man now in New York estimates Germany's requirements of breadstuffs at from <lO to 75 million bushels and not much of it is contracted. It is logical and natural that prices should react after the severe anil protracted decline. It .is inevitable that some volume of foreign demand will be encountered from time to time, but it remains to bo seen whether the foreign demand will be sufficiently large to bring about any pronounced advance in United States values. It must lie remembered that exportation of our surplus appears each year and, without this outlet producer* could not find a market for their reserves. It must be remembered also that we have a rather liberal visible simply and a comfortably large world’s available, ell of which must be deplete'! if (lie underlying situation is to be changed. Corn and oats —The erratic action of corn and oats is accounted for by an absence of broad interest and not bv anv Reins of news. it is believed that the present movement of corn will be completed within another ten days or two weeks. Shippers are good buyers of the current receipt*. These markets do not offer anything startling, but at the same time the price probably fnilv represents the surplus reserves in first'hands. We do not anticipate any pronounced weakness. i Drovisions—Receipts of hogs were larger than expected, which gave an easy tene to products. Packing interests were buyers from time to tint/'. Lower priced hogs are expected in the future.. CHICAGO GRAIN TABLE. —Oct. -5 WI T*L AT— Open. High. Low. Close.

BUILDING TO BE REVIVED AGAIN BY CHICAGOANS Cheaper Wages Cause Capitalists to Feel Safe in Erecting New Structures. NO BIG DROP IN LABOR Special to Indiana Deity Times •%&, 5 and Philadelphia Public Ledger. '.%** By U. B. EVANS. CHICAGO, Oct. C.—Pick and hammer are telling that a $19,000,000 structure Is Booiuio be erected in' the downtown district and tell slio that a ghost which has frequented .hat region and paidgrisits throughout the whole of Chicago these many months has boon laid. It is notmerely that the process of wrecking the old Grand Pacific Hotel has begun and that the Illinois Merchants' Trust Company, combination of three large banks, will soon house itself in anew structure, but that the great building problem la this city is close to solution. That enterprise has typified everything here in the building line—costly material, costly labor, ci/mbinntion of employer, employe and material man in the various tredes. The new apparent certainty that the construction will go forward means it pretty thorough change, and the tools of the workman will sing the promise of Judge Landis for his comprehensive decision anil the cracking of his whip around the heads of schemers and evildoers. - Throughout the city now the resistance of the union-i to the reduction iu wages, represented by $1 per hour for carpenters in place of $1.25. is rapidly melting. One of the most authoritative men in the industry of erecting and managing buildings expressed himself today as converted from a deeply despondent state of mind to one of strong hope. The workers who have been preventing themselves from earning a living have cause equally with the capitalist for satisfaction in this turn of affairs. Nor is there any “cost in this undertaking. It is a matter of good stiff prices for the work clearly slated in contract form, the builders to take their own chances as to profit or loss. The projectors of this undertaking are among the most sagacious business meD of Chicago, but they have been the objects of worry not unmixed with sympathy on the part of observers who havn fen red that they would construct their buildings on utMe cjpsts and before it was done would find they were getting basement rents. They foresaw people pointing at this structure some years lienee and saying. ‘‘No, it is not yielding an income because it was built in high times." Ono may predict that that remark will never be made, for if anything xvas ever studied with care this problem has been. Moreover tests in advance have disclosed the willingness of tenants to pay high figures for their quarters. The shortage of office space iu this city is truly distressing and rents generally are not going down, but up. With the present scarcity and the probability that there will be before the structure has lived very long.a great revival in business, the position of this project seems pretty secure.
The construction will mean a great deal for those directly interested and still more for the city at large. It will be a leader. And into this building will go an extraordinary representation es the business of the country— liflge bank deposits, trusteesships of estates on * large scale, lands, railroads, manufactures. oil wells and refineries with the normal aggregation of miscellaenous interests. Chicago always has been n battlefield of emplouer and employe, especiall in the building trades. The outcome in this case will be an example to many in that and other lines. Labor has declined somewhat in the past few months, but those who have studied the statistic* have learned that int or. advancing slowij whe/ff price advances, moves down with < s’o.vn ss when prices are declinirg. It is likely, therefore, that for ■some years -to come wages will remain high compared with the prewar figures, aid enterprise can not stop altogether sos that reason. The heavy stroke that has been given to corrupt union leaders and crooked employers and material men by the disclosures in this city is loosening wages and material costs all around, and there are unquestionably better times coming in that connection. Wages on the railroads are now noted by our best authorities as tho greatest obstacles to a general adjustment of costs. As one put ti today, the men running the trains are getting from a third to a half more than the workers in the towns through whteu these trains pass. The railroads. the same commentator remarked. are now seemingly ruled on the one side by the Government and on the other side n.' the unions. With a million and a half to two million men working for these companies, this is * matter of great importance to business. Wages must come down there before business can get an impulse from cheaper transportation. A Judge Landis ought to be put on the job.—Copyright, 1921, by Public Ledger Company.
