STOCK SALES MODERATE ON FIRM MARKET Oil Shares Occupy Center of Trading Stage With Advances. COPPERS SCORE GAINS Special to Indiana Daily Times and Philadelphia Public Ledger. By MONITOR. NEW YORK, Oct. 25.—Firmness again characterized the stock market, and also operations wore on a moderate scale. The Cession furnished several trading features of interest. Oil shares agaiu occupied the center of the stage, and several sharp advances were scored. Pacific oil again touched anew high level, Houston ran up sharply and General Asphalt sold at the highest point in several weeks. The rails advanced only fractionally, but the equipments were quite strong under the leadership of Baldwin and American Locomotive. Haskell and Barker on the other hand was a trifle reactionary. The coppers took quite a spurt, with Utah touching and closing at 55, which is the highest price this stock has reached in several months. Cerro de Pasco and Anaconda also advanced. General news was of a soihewhat conflicting character. The strike outlook was much better, but the optimism engendered by this department was offset by the unfavorable construction placed by the Senate action on taxation providing for a maximum surtax of 50 per cent. European cables professed to find much that was discouraging in the Hapsburg coup and the Irish question. The Street is looking forward with interest to the forthcoming reports of the United States Steel Corporation and the Central Leather Company. The Street appears to be looking for steel earnings somewhat above 513,000,000. An unfavorable statement is expected from Central Leather, although some improvement over the June showing is anticipated.—Copyright, 1921, by Public Ledger Company.

In the Cotton Market NEW YORK. Oct. 25.—Figures on cotton ginning issued by the census bureau today proved to be much lower than had been expected and started a heavy buying movement at the opening of the cotton market on which prices rose lti to 77 points. Most of the selling was from the South. Buying orders came from commission houses. At the end of the first fifteen minutes, the market was very active around initial high levels. New York opening cotton prices: October, 18 50c; December, 18.75 c; January, 19.00 c; March, 13.90 c; May, 18.38; July 17.90 c. The market displayed a firmer tone in the late afternoon on a belter outside demand. The close was steady at a net advance of 70 to S3 points. •—Cbtton Futures — Open. High. Low. Close.

The market was in a very strong technical position and the demand that appeared for contracts forced a rather sensational rise. So far as the size of the crop is concerned, we are no nearer actual knowledge than we were when the last Governemnt report was published. In the absence of official information, it is a guess as what percentage of the crop was ginned, but whether the crop has increased or not, the fact remains that in the spot market there is no indication weakness. FtiU prices are being paid and with hedging pressure probably complete, tin advantage for the immediate future will be with the owner and there is a reasonable likelihood of the market reaching higher levels.

STOCK YIELD 1 T 0 4 points NEW YORK, Oct. 25.—The stock market closed steady today. There was a falling off In the demand in the final hour and some issues yielded from 1 to 4 points from the high levels. Mexican Petroleum closed at 106%, a gain of over 3 points. Total sales of stocks were 803,000 shares; bonds, $12,821,000. 1 (By Thomson A McKinnon) —Oct. 25 — Today’s market has been the broadest that we have had in a considerable period. There was a material increase in the number of active issues and the rise is of unusual significance, because there was no particular incentive to urge buyers, with the single exception of the statement published by the Mexican Petroleum Company. The Central Leather Company made a poor showing and the general expectation is for a rather indifferent showing by the Steel Corporations. In the railroad labor controversy, there Is no change apparent. It is still a question as to whether the strike will take place at the scheduled time, but there Is a feeling of confidence throughout the country that the power of the Government will lie exercised for the protection of the public. The very best argument for the market and its future is its present action,- because, when there is nothing apparent to the casual observer, nothing tangible to point to as a reason for immediate activity and the market displays the stubborn strength that we have witnessed recently and continues to broaden and to move forward, then the logical inference is that there is something beneath tho surface, something that is not visible that is exercising a power and influence in the market. And when all concede that prices arc low and tile liquidation of the past lias been thoroughly completed it seems entirely in order to take advantage of the little reactions from day to day and buy stocks.

GRAIN VALUES CLOSE HIGHER
Diminished Receipts and Reports cf Export Demands Factors. CHICAGO, Oct. 25. —Grain prices went higher in trading on the Chicago Board of Trade today. The market was irregular at the opening, but diminished receipts brought higher prices. There were also reports of an increased export demand, which gave the market a firmer tone. Provisions were irregular. December wheat opened up %c at $1.08% and closed up %e. May wheat was unchanged at the opening at $1.12% and closed up l%c. December corn started off unchanged at 48c and closed %c higher. May corn opened %c higher at 38c and closed up %c. (By Thomson A McKinnon.) —Oct. 25Wheat —There was an early demand for wheat from Eastern sources, although there was 110 evidence of any improvement in the foreign demand. Early firmness was help by advices from the Northwest that the crest of the movement from first hands had passed and that receipts hereafter would dwindle. It was noticeable, however, that the early advances In the market brought selling by cash handlers. This fact prompts us to again say that there is a hedging load of 55,000,000 bushels against the visible supply and much more than that against stocks in country mills and elevators, which % being speculatively carried. Until this load is lightened, a falling off of receipts will have only temporary influence. Flour trade Is slow end Minneapolis cash wheat is lower. England reports sales of parcels on passage at materially less than replacement price. Canadian wheat is being offered at Buffalo at much under United States prices and it Vi, of course, this Canadian wheat which > ill supply such foreign demand as may appear. Inasmuch as we still have a supply over and above home requirements, it does not seen) logical to expect any permanent strength in prices until we reach a point where we can compete with Canada and with the Southern Hemisphere. Corn and Oats—A considerable falling off in the receipts of corn has encouraged some who feel that coarse grain prices are too low, but it can not be said that this encouragement is general. These markets, like wheat, run into hedging sales on every advance. New corn is selling considerably lelow a delivery basis, in addition to which there are liberal accumulations of eld corn in Chicago elevators. Winter feeding will, undoubtedly, lie on a broad scale, but the amount of corn which has reached commercial channels will have to be diminished before these markets will be favorable to investors. Provisions —Strength in grains and a ratlu-r good cash trade offset a decline of 23 to 49 cents in hogs. The provision market Itself has been particularly dull. A further lowering of hog values is expected. CHICAGO GRAIN TABLE. —Oct. 23 WHEAT— Open. High. Low.

The liquor raid conducted by Bert Morgan, Federal prohibition director for Indiana, and agents under bis jurisdiction at “Death Valley” near Cheviot, Ohio not far from Cincinnati Sunday, when $40,000 worth of liquor was seized and a large number of arrests made apparently has started a big “rumpus - ’ in prohibition enforcement circles in Ohio. Roy A. Haynes, national prohibition commissioner, went to Cincinnati yesterday and is quoted as saying: “Why did Cincinnati prohibition officers have to be shown by Indiana officers where liquor was kept?” He also said that he considered the raid to be the most important ever made by prohibition officers nnd that it hail provided more evidence that can bo use! in prosecuting the so-called whisky ring operating throughout that section of the country thau anything accomplished by the prohibition department since its establishment. It i3 said further investigation has | shown that the large force of guards I employed to protect the distributing ! plant at “Death Valley,” so named bei cause of the great number of liquor hold-ups since the prohibition law went j into force, were paid S4O a week with a j bonus of SSO fur every man killed. I Some cf the guns captured are said * to contain notches on the stock in ac- ! cordnnce with the established custom of 1 Tad men” of ‘he cld frontier days in 'notching their gJ" stocks for every man I killed.

STRIKE THREAT AFFECTS IRON, STEEL TRADE Demand for Stocks Against Tie-up Prospect Not Large. NEWS SHOWS BUYING PITTSBURGH, Pa , Oct. 25.-Threat of a railroad strike has not been without an effect on the iron and steel trade. Business was lighter last week than in immediate preceding weeks. Some consumers have been urging hastening ot shipments, especially of coal, coke and semi-finislied steel. The desire for stock supplies against a possible tie-up of transportation is n*)t large. It Is not generally believed there will be a strike and if it floes come large stocks shipj>e(l lu advance would not mean mucj since they Could not be shipped out. The slower movement in rew buying is based on the expectation that, strike or no strike, freight rates are coming down anil following it a possible lowering of prices of iron aud steel. N Price cutting is general In plates and one desirable order was placed at $1.50. The prices of both tin plate and wire products are cut moderately, while some sharp cuts have developed in line pipe. Operations of plants is on the whole on a somewhat better basis. .In the l'.ttsburgh district operations are at a!#out 42 per cent cf capacity, while the southeast Ohio and Johnstown districts , are at about 40 per cent, with a somewhat lower average in the Wheeling section. Jones and Langhlin Steel Company has ! placed two additional blast furnaces in operation in Pittsburgh, and the Carnegie I Steel Company another at its Ohio works jat Youngstown. In the whole of the sec- - tion there are now forty-two of 119 blast i furnaces at work. ' Many blast furnace interests report there has been less interest in buying pig iron since the announcement of the decreased freight on iron ore. The Westinghouse Electric and Manufacturing ; Company has purchased about 1,500 tons ! of foundry at from $20.50 to $22, having | bought three grades. | Awards have continue to increase la | structural steel, but fabricating com- | petition is very keen, one important job j of the week going at $37 a ton erected. Semi-finished steel is very dull. Orders for standard pipe are slowly increasing. but for large or line pipe, used mostly for oil and gas lines, there is little demand. Some railroads, especially in the South and YY'est, have ordered ; rails against suspended 1921 contracts. : Those so far aggregate more than 50,000 I tons. I Chicago.
