STOCKS JUMPY, BUT UNDERTONE .FAIRLY STRONG New York Telephone Cos. Bond Issue Sale Proves Remarkable Success. Special to Indiana Daily Times and Philadelphia Public Ledger. By MONITOR. NEW YORK, Nov. 16.—Stocks showed less activity and more irregularity, with a fairly steady undertone in the forenoon and a reactionary tendency toward the close. Several points of weakness developed. and these operated to deter confident buying and encouraging short aelling. The action of the market was more or less of a puzzl, in view of the optimism created by the favorable report from the Disarmament Conference and various explanations which offered. It was even suggested that a certain amount of celling had already made its appearance for the purpose of establishing income tax losses. Various groups of stocks moved in response to special influences. The oils were reatiuonary and Royal Dutch was distinctly weak. Motor shares were inclined to sag, tut it looked as if rubber and tire stocks had about discounted the price reductions with the belated announcement that Goodrich had made Its cuts, and these issues were steadier. The equipments generally made a good showing, although the pronounced strength of Haskell & Barker and Pullman Company was due to special causes. Steels showed a tendency toward recovery end Bethlehem closed at a small net gain. The coppers started off well, with most of the active issues higher in the forenoon, but Seneca was the only stock to maintain practically the full extent of its advance. In the investment division a continued gold demand is reflected by the large turnover, although prices sagged somewhat In the afternoon. The heavy oversubscription to the offering of $-10,000,000 of 6 per cent bonds of the New York Telephone Company Is excellent evidence of the large supply of available . Is.— Copyright, 1021, by Tublic Le Company. WALL STREET GOSSIP BY MONITOR. Some idea of the abundance of investment funds may be gained from the fact that the subscription books for the issue of $50,000.0000 of twenty-year 6 per cent refunding mortgage gold bonds, series A of the New York Telephone Company were opened at 10 o'clock at Uie offices of J. P. Morgan .V Cos and immediately closed. The issue was several times oversubscribed. The bonds were offered at 07 and interest to yield over 6.25 per cent. A great deal of interest had been taken in the underwriting and bankers and bond dealers had been flooded with advance orders for the bonds. According to O. E. Gifford, secretary of the Bridge Builders’ Structural Society. orders for structural steel are equal j to more than 50 per cent of the capacity ! of the country's plants. Contracts placed ; during October amount to 97.500 tons, or 54 per cent of the plant capacity of the country. This is a gain of more than 11,000 tons over September orders. The American Telephone Company has raised the price of its stock under the employes’ stork subscription plan from ■sloo a share to $lO5 a share, effective Dec. l. It is said that since the plan was nnnoum-ed last May about 40 per cent | of employes of the company have availed i themselves of the opportunity to become [ stockholders. The stock dosed Tuesday j above 112. which is anew high figure i for the last two years. The quarterly I dividend of 2% per cent is payable Jan.' 16 to stockholders of record Dec. 20. Weakness In Royal Dutch has been mor- or less of a puzzle to the street. On ■ theory is that it is prompted by the rise in guilder exchange which is quoted around 34.90 compared with 34.60 a week ago. Another view is to the effect that the naval disarmament proposals, if carried out. would adversely affect the fortunes of Royal Dutch which is the chief purveyor of fuel oil to the British adm. Th sharp rise in Famous Players, which represented a gain of more than 4 points, was construed chiefly as a belatcd response to reports regarding the earnings of the company. The statement for the September quarter was more favorable than expected, as to the net profit for the period was $1,100,000. The total net up to the end of September is placed at $4.156,0”0. or at the rate of $23.25 p> r annum. The 8 per cent dividend. therefore, is earned nearly three times over. American Hide and Leather stocks, both common and preferred, continued to show strength in spite of the fact that the preferred made anew substantial advance Monday. The previous high level for the preferred this year was 54. and the close yesterday was above 57. It is said the company has been showing increased earning power in the last quarter, and has reduced the deficit incurred in the first quarter to $757 358.—Copy - tight, 1921, by Public Ledge.- Company. In the Cotton Market COTTON REVIEW. YORK. Nov. 10.—The cotton market gave a surprisingly good account of itself today. Southern pressure that has been apparent daily, while stir in evidence today, was of moderate proportions, and since the price appeared more attractive to traders, as well as the public, the buying became more attractive and as the demand increased it became apparent that recent liquidation had created a very favorable technical situation here. The news was rather mixed. The rumors of a private report on ginning estimating that 97 per cent of the crop had been ginned, was rather surprising to those who have entertained the idea of an 8,000.000-bale crop. From England news In relation to reduced time apparently was not regarded seriously here, for it was entirely ignored in the day’s operations. The present price of cotton. In view of all the circumstances, is a reasonable one. but the question of a further advance will depend entirely on the attitude of Southern spot holders and if they will display a little more independence a further advance becomes likely. NEW YORK. Nov. 16.—Easy cables with uncertainty about short times st the mills inManchester, England, started a selling movement in the cotton market at the opening today, which weakened first prices 10 to 25 points. Later, the list recovered much of this loss on reports that the pink boll worm had invaded the largest cotton county in Texas. New York opening cotton prices: December, 16.40 c: January, 16.22 c; March, 10.30 c; May. 16.25 c: July, Io.SSc. The market eased off from the top in the late dealings under profit taking. The market closed barely steady at a net advance of 20 to 27 points. —Cotton Futures— Open. High. Low. close.

(By Thomson & McKinnon.) —Nov. 16— The stock market has not reached that stage of stability where it is beginning to act like a well regulated automatic machine. It recedes under pressure and only so long as pressure is applied. The moment it is left to itself it automatically expands and moves forward. It is not only demonstrating strength, but is. broadening each week. It is now pos- | stble to move stocks that heretofore were dormant and regarded as helpless while the leaders continue to reach higher levels. Public interest in increasing, confidence is increasing and there never was a more opportune time for optimism than the iresent. There never was a time in recent years when the world outlook was more‘brilliant and if the conference in Washington will solve the Far Eastern, international problems as easily, ns the problem of naval construction, there will follow a period of commercial expansion unparallelled in the history of mankind. In this country we are making progress each day. The records show Increased employment, increased production In textile mills, steel mills, shoe, factories, lumber and numerous other industries. Stocks can advance materially and still be within a reasonable range of values. TWENTY STOCK AVERAGE. NEW YORK. Nov. 16.—Twenty. industrial stocks Tuesday averaged 71X0, up ;•*> per cent.

The influence of large receipts upon the trend of the market was offset by higuer prices in Chicago and other foreign marts and good demands by both local packers and shippers with eastern house connections. Receipts ran close to 13,000 swine for the day and with trade very active, practically all of the hogs had been sold at an early .hour in the forenoon. Shippers early bought must of the light grades of swine, while loeuS packers again bought the heavier grades. Heavy hogs brought $7. mixed and medium, $7(0.7.10 and lights, $7.10®7.23. The bulk of the sales ranged at [email protected]. There was another dull aud draggy session of the cattle market. Although packers Lought, as they usually do, they were slow about getting started. Itecefipts of cattle ran around 700. with but few really good cattle on the market. Due to this poor quality and the reluctance on the part of packers and other interests to buy, prices were generally barely steady to 21 cents lower, although there were- a few spots where fully steady prices were maintained. There was a top of $9 paid for one good yearling steer, while there were a very few scattered sales of yearlings at around $8.30. Bulls were generally steady with the trend of the previous day, but during the past week or more they have sustained losses ranging from 25 to 71 cents. Veal prices sustained declines of from 50 cents to sl. with receipts around 600, the demand in the East poor and the quality generally only fair to good. Choice veals brought a top of sll, while tin? bulk of that grade sold at $10.50. Good veals sold at $9.10% 10 and tnediunis at $7%9. Heavy and thin calves brought $4.50% 7. Sheep prices were steady and luntb values strong to 23c higher, with the demand by both local and Eastern concerns good and the quality generally good. Receipts of sheep and lambs ran close to 500, the bulk of which were taken by local concerns. There was a top of $9 on a few choice ewe and wether lambs, while there was a fair number of sales of that grade at $8.75. Other grades of lambs were higher in proportion to the advances sustained by the better grades. HOGS.

GRAIN VALUES MAKE RALLIES Shorts Make Efforts to Cover Their Former Losses. CHICAGO, Nov. 16.—Wheat rallied from losses of yesterday and showed a firmer tone on the Chicago Board of Trade today. Buying by the shorts, in an effort to cover up their losses and reports that a large loan would be extended Germany were the factors that caused the rally. Other graius were also higher. December wheat opened at SKM?*, up %c, and closed 2%c higher. slay wheat opened up %c at SI.OB and closed up 111 c. December corn was %c higher at the opening of 47% and closed up %c. May corn opened unchanged at 02’ic and advanced %c at the close. December oats opened at 3274 c, up 74c, and closed up %.c. May oats opened up 14c at 36Vic and closed l%c higher. (By Thomson A McKinnon.) —Nov. 10Wheat—The seaboard speaks of a better feeling in export circles, and there is some inquiry for gulf wheat at advancing premiums. Beyond this, there have been no developments. This condition, however, has encouraged friends of the market for the reason that they believe that the foreign demand must again appear in North America as Southern hemisphere wheat does not usually arrive until March. Minneapolis also reports more interest on the part of shippers and elevators and says that export bids for all grains are In that market. At time of writing, no export sales have been made public. The new crop of Argentine wheat is said to have sold to Europe for January-February shipment at some 6 cents cheaper than United States sorts. Canadian wheat still presents active competition. their December wheat being 4 cents cheaper than Chicago market, without taking into account the matter of exchange. Rains have been reported in Illinois and parts of Missouri, but nothing as yet in Kansas, although rain or snow is predicted there. The optimism displayed by seaboard exporters should be c-losely watched for the reason that the trend of prices is to be gathered from the foreign demand. Corn and Oats—The seaboard demand for corn is Insistent, the basis of bids being advaned another *4 of a cent today, resulting in sales of about 450,000 bushels. It is believed that the account of sales would lie considerably larger If western shippers were lt%s reluctant to offer on the present basis. There is some reason for thinking that the contemplated reduction in western freight rates will not materialize. If so, there is not likely to be any important increase in the receipts. Southern markets are overbidding Chicago at Illinois points. Reel nt sales probably have cut into the elevator accumllations here and as light movement is expected, it is reasonable t|i believe that December will show relative strength. That market is neglected, operations being small and mainly changing between December and May. Provisions—Yesterday’s buyers of January lard were seen ns sellers today. There was also a little selling of November lard by packing interests. The volume of trade was not large. Sentiment favors lower prices in both products and lings, but the market receives support from cash handlers on all declines. CHICAGO GRAIN TABLE. Nov. 16— WHEAT— Open. High. Low. Close.

This fact has been revealed through a survey of welfare agencies throughout the city, conducted by several committees front the Chamber of Commerce. Nearly 10,000 nten, 50 per cent of whom are “floaters,” are without employment in this city, the survey showed. There has been a large influx into the city of m'n from all sections of the country, lured hero by numerous false rumors circulated to the effect that Kansas City has no unemployment problem. Relief organizations report they are receiving hundreds of appeals for aid, far in excess of any made previously, they say. The Helping Hand Institute's records show that 1.073 nteu were cared for during ■ September this year, compared to 300 duriug the same period a year ago. “Requests for aid from our organization come in larger numbers every day,” Brigadier John C. Smith, divisional commander of the Salvation Army, said. “At least 100 per cent more requests for food, lodging and transportation have come during the last month than in the same period last year.” During 1920 the Provident Association distributed aid to 451 families in September. This year assistance was rendered to 706 families. Mayor Cowgill has announced that he is strongly in favor of and would endeavor to cooperate extensively with President Harding's recommendations to mayors of municipalities that they do everything humanly possible to aid the jobless in securing employment. “It would help some,” said the mayor, “if employers could conduct their business so as to divide a week among their regular employes and those out of work, giving each class three days' work each week.” Bring ‘Nothing on Hip’ Is AlumniJVarnmg BLOOMINGTON, Ind., Nov. 16.

BRITAIN *OT COMMITTED TO PLAN CHANGES Naval Experts Say They Have No Definite Amendments to U. S. Program. WASHINGTON, Nov. 16.—Great Britain’s naval experts are not committed to any definite program of amendments to America’s far-reaching scheme for limiting the world's navies, it was semiofficially stated today at British headquarters. The statement was made in connection with the meeting of the four allied admirals—Beatty, Kato, Deßon aud Acton —under the chairmanship of Assistant Secretary of the Navy Roosevelt, to consider the practical application of America’s proposals. Admiral Beatty, it was said, would merely present his views as the discussions progressed, but had prepared no program and was under no instructions to stick to hard and fast principles. London dispatches reporting criticisms of Balfour's acceptance by the Liberal press were not alarming to the members of the delegation. British spokesmen said the criteisms were based upon preliminary reports cabled to London from ashington and that sufficient time had not elapsed for the full speech of Balfour to. receive editorial comment. As Great Britain, Japan and the United States approach an agreement oil the limitation of the size of their respective navies, it will become evident, according , to opinions expressed in high diplomatic j circles, that provisions must be made for ! assuring adequate protection to the world's merchant fleets. Tap concrete suggestion may be made that the various nations now maintaining merchant fleets should enter into nit agreement or treaty arrangement whereby the cost of such protection might be i shouldered proportionately by the par- : ticipating powers.
