BRISK DEMAND HAS TENDENCY TO AID STOCKS Active Buying Strengthens Prices, Although Gains Are Not Uniform. U. S. STEEL CLOSES HIGH Special to Indiana Daily Times and Philadelphia Public Ledger. BY MONITOR. NEW YORK. Nov. 2D.—Trading in stocks again covered a broad range with the general tendency higher and the character o fthe market Quite similar to that cf the closing days o£ last week. In other words, the investment buying that has been such a feature of recent sessions again took in the character of semispeculation, although demand seemed to be concentrated largely on dividend paying stocks or issues with excellent prospects, both in respect to earnings and dividend disbursements. Buying was particularly active in the rails, equipments and coppers, although the gains in the latter group were not uniformly held. Utah Copper for example got up to CO, the highest price in a good many months, but reacted moderately later. American Car & Foundry was strong on relatively heavy trading, Baldwin made* a further advance and Pullman and Pressed Steel Car were higher. In the rails, Union Pacific was an outstanding feature, with an advance to 131, anew high level. Atchison, Nortnern Pacific, Southern Pacific and Rock Island issues were active and higher. On the other hand. New Haven made anew low level for all time on gloomy forecasts of its financial future. In spite of the rather indifferent reports rgarding the status of the steel industrs' the steel shares were steady to firm with the exception of Gulf States and Crucible which were slightly reactionary. United States Steel closed at the top on buying of fair volume. In the industrial group the only feature of actual weakness was represented by Sears-Itoeburk, which was heavy all day and closed practically at the bottom. The Selling was aceompan.ed by expression of doubt as to the mairtenance of the preferred dividend owing to wbat were alleged to be the terras of some proposed new financing. Official denials regarding the new financing failed to stimulate buying of the stock.—Copyright, 1021, by Public Ledger Company. BALL STREET GOSSIP BY" MONITOR. Traders came down town expecting a slightly higher opening and a sagging market through the remainder of the session. The higher opening arrived as per schedule, and there ensued a period ot uncertainty in the middle of the day. floor traders sold stocks short, and at this juncture their plans went awry. Large buying orders iu the equipments. United States Steel and some of the railroads were placed with the result that a generally higher range of prices was established at the close. There have been reports that directors of the I>. L. A W. R. It. will meet by the end of the year and declare an extra dividend of £2 a share. From sources in close touch with the company's affairs it is learned the disbursement will be larger than $2, but that the exact amount has not been determined. The buying of this stock recently has been of an excellent character. Sears Roebuck was an outstanding feature of weakness iu the industrial section. A decline of more than four points was attributed to a report that the dividend in preferred stock will be passed when the directors meet this week. It was reported also that the eoinuany contemplates new financing, but this was denied officially. American Car and Foundry sold within 3 points of the highest price on record. It is in a favorable investment position as compared with other industrials of its class. The same character of buying which has been evident in Union Pacific for some time past was evident again, and offerings did not iucreuse materially as the price advanced. There was no news to account for the strength of this issue specifically, its appeal to the investment buyer Leing given as sufficient reason for the advance.

Houses which in yearn past have been buyers of United State Steel for the account of the corporation for resale to employes have been the principal purchasers of this stock recently. l.ast year about 250.000 shares were taken by the workers at 81, but it is understood in some iiuarters that the price this year will be somewhat higher. The employes' Stock carries dividends of ti per cent which makes the present price proportionately cheaper to them than to the general public. The independent steels were laggards again as they have been in recent market sessions. Tae operations of these companies are approximately 10 per cent below those of the corporation, which has induced some outside selling. Despite the advance in the market, a careful canvass of the Commission houses indicated that the outstanding short interest is of very large proportions. Haskell & Barker made anew high record for all time. Several weeks ago when the plans for tae proposed merger with Pullman were made public there was heavy selling of both issues by professionals. Reports from the metal market indicate that the recent quotations for clipper are being maintained lirtniy and this served to bring further public participation in the movements of the stocks of these companies. Anaconda and Utah made anew high record. There was heavy selling of WillvsOverland on the announcement of receivership for the Willys corporation. This corporation bolds 32 per cent of 730.000 shares of Willys-Overland stock and it was feared forced liquidation might result in stil. further depreciation in the price of the latter. Davison Chemical was one of the weak features, the pool which has been operating in this issue withdrawing its bids with the result that offering were not taken within a half point or more of the previous sale. The action of this stock and the evident disinclination of the poo) to support it rcsuited in some unfavorable comment. New Haven stock Wild at anew low record for all time when transaction were reported at 1214. The financial out look of this property Is so dark as tresult in the circulation of reports tha are discouraging to holders—Copyright, 1921, by Public Ledger Company. Legion Outlines Clubhouse Plans Plans for a downtown club house for .he 2.000 ex-sailors and 300 ex-Marlnes in Indianapolis were outlined at a sgnoker of George Dewey Post No. 3, American Legion, last night by Frederick A. Payne, a former commander in the Navy. Other speakers at the meeting were Judge Arthur R. Robinson and George F. Zimmer, who was attached to Admiral Sims' staff during the war.

STOCK MARKET CLOSE IRREGULAR Buying of Reading and Lehigh Valley Chief Feature. NEW YORK Nov. 29.—The stock market closed irregular today. The buying of Reading and Lehigh Valley was a feature, the former moving up nearly 2 points to 74%, while the latter rose 1% points to 57%. United States Steel, after yielding to 52%, rose to 83, and Baldwin Loeomot.ve rallied 1 point to 98%. Standard Oil of New Jersey yielded .3 points to 175 and Mexican Petroleum fell over 1 point to 114 ft. Government bonds were unchanged and railway and other bonds steady. Total sales of stocks were 801,500 shares; bonds, $20,813,000. , (By Thomson & McKinnon.) —Nov. 29 The volume of business today was again on a fairly large scale but trading was more irregular than heretofore, disclosing a more general disposition to accept profits where available and as the demand from the public was less urgent a reactionary tendency became noticeable in many Issues. In a few spots we had real weakness, especially in Sears Roebuck where pressure was again concentrated and another substantial decline recorded. During the early trading some of the rails established new highs on this present move and in event of reaction it seems more than likely that the same character es investment that lias been noticed recently will again be in evidence for this group Is regarded with greater favor than in a long time. The news of the day was generally favorable. Trade reports from the. Northwest are encouraging as to holiday business. In Chicago successful sales in the mercantile line are being conducted in the Chicago steel district anew high rate of production has been reached and many additional orders for railroad cars are expected from the railroad companies, and a substantial business is reported in the copper line for export. During the afternoon the market was adversely influenced by the continued weakness in Sears Roebuck as well as industrial Oleohol as this encouraged considerable selling from the professional element as well as some further profit taking by commission houses. 80 far, as ultimate results are concerned we continue of the same opinion as we have expressed recently hut temper arlly we regard a reaction as most likely and timely.

Reports from the South show unsatisfactory spot conditions, with the demand limited and in some instances the basis is said to be easier. This will mean irregular markets until such time as the world's spinners will bo impressed by Ihe very doubtful outlook for next year s supply. We are inclined to be of the opinion that the better opportunities will lie found on the long side if purchases will be confined to weak markets.

Receipts for the day ran close to 15,000, which is .the largest numlrnr of swine that have been on the market in any one day for the past mouth or more. Local packers established the market, buying the heavier grades of swine principally, while shippers with Eastern house connections followed the lead. Trade was active and practically ail of the early receipts of 12,000 were sold at an early hour in the forenoon anil a lair clearance for the day was anticipated. Light swine brought [email protected] and there were no premiums paid. Mixed and medium swine brought while the bulk of the heavy swine brought $7. There were a few sales of extremely heavy hogs that sold at 'ower prices. Roughs were in lair demand and sold at $0.25, while stags brought $4.50(0.5.50. There was an extra good demand for pigs, that grade of swine bringing $7.50(38. There was not the active tone to trade in cattle that there was on the opening market session of the weak and prices showed declines of 25 to 50 cents generally on practically all grades of cattle. Bulls, however, were in good demand at steady prices, there being but few on the mart. There were also a very few sales of choice steers at steady prices, blit these were exceptional sales and could not be considered as coming within the general market. Receipts were rather large, in fact the largest for the past two or three weeks, and packers seemed rather reluctant in buying. Veal prices were 50 rents to $1 higher, with receipts around 600 and the shippers with Eastern city connections displaying good demands. Choice veals brought a top of $12.5(4, while the bulk of that grade brought $11.50313. Other grades were higher in proportion to advances in the choice grades. Willi receipts of sheep and lambs light and tiie quality generally good, prices were fully steady. A few good to choice ewe and wether lambs sold lit $9, which was the top fur the day.

WHEAT SUFFERS SHARP DECLINES Corn and Oats Lose, but Not So Heavily as Wheat. CHICAGO, Nor. 29.—The firm tone of the garin market broke today when wheat prices took sharp declines on the Chicago Board of Trade. • Offerings were light at the opening, but Increased in amounts greater than the demand as the session progressed. Other grains were lower, but did not take the losses wheat took. Provisions were irregular. December wheat opened at $1.14%, off Vic, and closed off 2%c. May Wheat opened at $1.18%, up %c, and closed 2%e lower. December corn was o ff%e at the opening at 48%c and later slumped l%c. May corn opened unchanged at 54%c and closed off %c. December oats opened at 32%c, off %e, and closed %c lower. May oats was %c higher at the opening at 38%c and closed %c lower. (By Thomson & McKinnon.) —Nov. 29—• "'heat —Poor response to strength in foreigh markets was displayed in wheat early today. For this reason and because liquidation was under way in coarse grains realizing sales appeared and found rather unimportant support. Cash wheat in the Northwest has ruled rather slow and it is claimed that the advance in prices increased the offerings from the country on both sides of the border. It is claimed that millers and flour jobbers are buying sparingly ns possible, in anticipation of a possible reduction in he tariff to lie fixed at some time In the future by Congress. It is also claimed that miHers have sufficient supplies to tide them over until the first of February. at which time it is expected the tariff bill will be completed. It is inevitable that reactions appear at unexpected times, and ns there is no particular improvement iu tiie news from the southern hemisphere, it follows that the decline today was simply a natural reacliou and not a change in the general trend. Corn and oats —Possibilities of liberal deliveries of oats and moderate deliveries of corn on December contracts have been responsible for rather general selling of the December delivery. Seaboard houses were seen as buyers of the corn anil hedgers and spreaders of the oats. There was also substantial buying of May oats, which seemed to come from cash interests Offerings of oats from the country are light and of corn only moderate. The completion of December liquidation on tomorrow diould place these markets in a more healthy position. Provisions —-There is a fair domestic! cash trade, but Europe is out of the market, temporarily at least. The provision lint was neglected and inclined to drag a little.
