MARKET TAKES UPWARD TURN AFTER SLUMP Ready Response to Bullish Tactics Results in Rise in Prices. SPECIALTIES IN GAIN Spt L-!aI to Indiana Dally Times and Philadelphia Public Ledger. BY MONITOR NEW YORK, March 29.—The stock market, although showing some diminution in activity, gave another demonstration it the strength of the technical position. While It was evident that operations were largely professional in character, it could not be denied that the market made a ready response to the bullish tactics employed. There was little or nothing In the outside news to furnish the incentive for the upward turn in prices. Call money showed a moderate tendency to ease, and reports from the steel industry were better. One dispatch stated that one of the Carnegie Steel plants had gone on full time operation. The improvement in the steel trade is expected to be recorded in the weekly reviews. There is little In present price movements, however, that can be explained on any other grounds than the favorable money situation and the strength of thp market position, relating particularly to the Email ontside speculative holdings of stocks. This is a state of affairs that works strongly into the hands of professional cliques. On declines it is difficult to buy any quantity of stocks. On advances it Is difficult to effect sales In voluma. Floor traders are responsible for much of the activity and their speculative intinct causes them to follow the orders when they appear in the market. Specialties figured prominently in the day's market. Express stocks were strong. * and advances of an unusual character were scored by the Barr .all issues, Market Street Railways, Pul nan. American Zinc preferred, Electric Storage Battpry, I'nited States Industrial Alcohol and numerous others. The sugars were freely bought, the oils were in better demand, with Mexican Petroleum gaining nearly two points on a fairly large turnover. Steels were steady, and equipments were stro, = . Public utitlities, Including the gas stocks and local tractions, made fairly good gains. Ralls were steady but generally inactive with the exception of New Haven, which was bij up sharply by the professional element. —Copyright, 1922, by Public Ledger Company.

MRS.M’CORMICK’S LACE COLLECTION HELD FOR DUTY Custom’s Official Must Determine if SIOO,OOO Worth of Antiques Remade. CHICAGO. March 29.—The rarest collection of old laces In the world outside the Vatican in Rome—property of Edith Rockefeller McCormick—was held today by Niels Juul, United Stales Collector of Customs for Chicago. The laces, valued at more than SIOO,000, were brought from Zurich, whore she spent the last eight years, to Chicago by Mrs. McCormick. Mrs. McCormick petitioned that the laces be allowed into the country duty free because they are antiques. In ease duty is charged it will cost her about SOO,OOO. The laces. In eighteen pieces, were gathered by a score of collectors working for Mrs. McCormick, in all parts of the world. They were in hundreds of small parts, which were made together into the dozen and a half priceless pieces. The law provides that antiques, more than one hundred years old may be brought Into the country, duty free. All of the lace is more than the required age. However, the statutes further say, tha* in ease the antiques are r made, duty must be paid. The question Juul must decide is whether in sewing the pieces together they were remade. Mrs. McCormick brought the laces to j *.his country for exhibition purposes. I

Government bonds were unchanged and railway and o her bonds steady. Sales of stocks for Friday were 749,SOO shares. (By Thomson A McKinnon). —March 29 The volume of transaction on the stock exchange are under their recent record established, which is not at all surprising because the reaction during the latter par! '.f last week had the effect of unsettling sentiment a little and the result has been a smaller volume of buying orders to be executed at the market and an increase in the number to be executed at limits under the market. But this very fact 19 evidence of an improved undertone, because, after nil. the real test of a market's stability is that stocks ere wanted at a price rather than for sale. Furthermore, a moderation in market activity is beneficial because it is not for the best interests of all concerned that that market should move too rapidly aud go too far In the discounting process. We should realize that we are only In the discounting period. Aotuni business expansion will cotne by degrees and It may be a year or two before we can see the full result of the present efforts for expansion. That conditions are daily Improving, thorn can be but liltle doubt and today's review of the steel Industry by the Iron Age Is certainly encouraging. It summarizes the present situation by saying that accumulating tonnage in steel mill books is having a marked effect on the prices and short construction of various kinds Is constantly Increasing. We continue to entertain a favorable opinion of the market and think the tendency will continue upward. TWENTY BTOCK AVERAGE.

Prices, however, were generally only 10 cents lower. Values were again within a very narrow range, there being but very few heavy swine on the market. There was a top of $10.50 on light iugs. while the bulk of the sales ranged at $10,254(10.10. Cattle values ruled steady 1 morally, with receipts around 800, tin quality fair to good and the demand mewhat better than, the market of the eeeding day. There were a few strong spots in the steer market, however, but this should not be counter! ns really coming within the general market trend. Veals were 50 certs lower generally, due principally to large receipts and lower prices on eastern markets. Receipts ran close to ,800 for the day. With 150 Sheep and lambs on the market prices were steady generally. The quality was only fair to good. Many of the lambs were in wet condition.

GRAINS SUFFER LATE DECLINES Large Receipts in Northwest Cause Wheat Losses. CHICAGO, March 29 Grain prices were generally lower in late dealings on the Chicago Board of Trade today. Large receipts from the Northwest was the chief factor of the decline in wheat prices. Fair commission house buying prevented a still lower trend. Provisions were irregular. May wheat opened at $1.32%. up %e, and was off %c at the close. July wheat opened at $1.19%, up %e, and closed off %c. May corn opened at 5.8%c, unchanged, and closed down %c. July corn opened at C2c, up %c at 36%c and closed unchanged. July oats opened at 39%c, off %c and closed down %c. —March 29 (By Thomson A McKinnon.) Wheat—Foreign markets displayed a little strength and claims of damage to the new crop in the Southwest have been numerous, nonetheless, there has been a noticeable absence of influential demand. This apnfhy is displayed, not only in the deferred deliveries, but in the export and milling trade, also. The sdaboard estimated 200,000 to 300.000 business closed but no breadth of demand or urgency of bids. Canadian messages speak of heavy accumulations at Ft. Williams and Port Arthur, together with many oars on sidetrack, awaiting unloading, while, at the' same time, the demand is poor and likely to so remain until after the opening of navigation. Southwestern cash markets express a particularly poor demand for cash wheat, together with the fact that warehouse stocks are much larger than a year ago and are not decreasing as rapidly as bad been hoped. Kansas City shippers have petitioned a bearing on the question of rates, will* the idea of permitting present warehouse accumulations to move on the present freight rate, which is lower than that prevailing when the accumulations were being built up. It is noted that the unfavorable crop news is confined to a limited territory in the extreme Southwest, official publications speak of considerable improvement in other territories, one unofficial report shows an improvement in condition of 14 points .over the December condition. Under the'present slow milling and export demand and the favorable weather over the major portion of the wheat belt the market is distinctly in need of some new incentive to revive demand. Corn and oats—Market for current arrivals of corn and oats is steady be(ause of the small receipts. However, it is not possible to mention any improvement in the general demand, either domestic or foreign. Both markets are neglected, and. like wheat, are awaiting important developments beofre taking Individual color. Provisions—Holders of bog products are not disturbed because of the discount under hogs. At the same time, cash trade is not brisk and new Investment demand does not appear. This market, like all of the grains, is awaiting developments of some nature to revive interest. CHICAGO GRAIN TABLE. —March 29.WIIEAT— Op n. High. Low. rinse.

In the Cotton Market
NEW YORK, March 29.—The cotton market opened steady today at an advance of 2 points to a decline of 1 point. Cables were steady, but Liverpool was a seller of May here. Wire houses also sold. New Orleans was a buyer. Heavy rains in parts of the Southwest acted as an offset to further precipitation in tlie Eastern belt. The list was maintained after the start with prices a few points above the initial levels. The market was easier in the late dealings, closing at a net decline of 7 to 11 points. —Cotton Futures— Open. High. Low. Close.

Though it confirms in all respects the daily reports of the past week with reference to the delay in crop preparations reports of the past week with reference to the delay in crop preparations in the central and eastern belt. It specifically mentions the fact that little or no cotton has as yet been planted in the central gulf district, the main progress having been confined to the west part of the belt and field work was hindered by frequent rains and wet soil in the central and southern valleys districts. In the trading, switching operations a gain constituted the feature. The May option maintained its premium over July and confirms the opinion previously expressed that tfii3 option is oversold. There is nothing at this time to attract the public. We need anew incentive, but with all the crop uncertainties before us, we regard the long side as offering the best opportunities. LIVERPOOL.

ILLINOIS TO JOIN IN MINE STRIKE APRIL 1 (Continued From Faae One.) gylvauia had kept their contract, nnd met with the miners to draw up anew wage agreement." Farrington told the meeting. ILLINOIS MINERS WITH OTHER UNIONS. Farrington made it plain that Illinois miners would “ride along’’ with the national organization on the strike unless an “emergency arises.” “I cannot negotiate anew agreement with you because the national policy committee of the union has decided against separate State agreements," Farrington told the operators. “I merely caile/l this meeting as a matter of form, because our contract requires that we shall meet prior to its expiration, April 1. "I ntn going to abide by the decisions of the policy committee unless an emergency arises.” "Just what do you mean by an emergency?” one operator asked the union chief. MIGHT NEGOTIATE SEPARATE PEA(E. Fat "ington refused to amplify his statement. It was understood that in case of further difficulties with the national organization on the question of a slrikc, Farrington would be in position to resume negotiations for a separate peacce with Illinois operators. F. C. Honnold, secretary of Illinois operators: "Mine operators have done everything within their power now to avert the April 1 strike. Our hands are clean.” LEWIS EXPECTED IN LATE TODAY John I/. Lewis, president of the United Mine Workers, was expected to arrive in Indianapolis late today to direct from union headquarters the strike of more than half a million eonl miners, which is to be launched Friday at midnight. The first step to be taken by the miners’ chief is the issuance of telegraphic orders to district president of the mine workers’ organization, closing every unionized coal mine in the country. These wire instructions were expected to bo sent out today, but Inasmuch as Mr. Lewis does not arri\-o from his home in Springfield, Hi., until late afternoon, it was considered probable at union headquarters that the action might be deferred, possibly until tomorroxv. Before departing for Indianapolis, Mr. Lewis declared Saturday would find all the union mines idle nnd that many nonunion workings soon will be on the “suspension” list. With the longshoremen’s union promising not to unload imported coal, it was poiuted out at headquarters and with the non-union field “sewed-up” by the strike—if it succeeds in Invading the unorganized field—the nation will be compelled to subsist only on the stocks, ample for a considerable period, of coal now above ground. Even though the nonunion minors do not finally cast their lot with the strikers, another possibility of virtually shutting off that source of fuel supply loomed. That is through action of the railroad men. While the railroaders,

whose unions have tentatively promised “moral support" for the striking miners, fire not pledged to a sympathetic strike, it was pointed out in miners’ circles tint they “might” refuse to haul coal from the non-union fields —or in absence of flat refusal, merely “forget" to haul to market the coal dug by the non-union men. PREDICT FAILURE IN N. Y. SESSION NEW YORK, March 29.—1n a last attempt to adjust their differences before the strike order goes into effect Friday at midnight, representatives of the anthracite coal miners and operators were to meet in conference again at the Union League Club this afternoon. Before the meeting convened, it was generally agreed on both sides that nothing could be done to avert the proposed walkout. Thomas J. Kennedy of Hazleton, Pa., chairman of the miners’ wage scale committee, said the walkout was inevitable and will be 100 per cent complete in tho' anthracite fields, where 132,000 men are now employed. HESSLER REJECTS SECOND INVITATION TERRE HAUTE, Ind., March 29. John llessler, president of District 11, United Mine Workers, today rejected the second invitation of the Indiana operators to meet In separate conference to discuss anew wage scale. In a letter to Fhil Penna, secretary of the Indiana Operators' Association, Dossier said: "We are committed ;o the policy of interstate joint conference, not because the miners ’desire to make a contract in a Particular way and including the parth .Jar territory desirable to our union’ as stated in your letter, because su*;h a policy wa3 definitely agreed upon at New York two years ago. A State conference would accomplish nothing because your association would agree to nothing until you knew what your competitors were doing.” Kessler's refusal was in reply to a stinging message from Penna.
