By United Press XEW YORK. July 17.—The Wall Street Journal today says; Operations on the New York Stock Exchange were more noteworthy today for the character of the stocks /which were featured than for the degree of activity.

With the railroad average achieving , anew high on Saturday's close, and the industrial average almost within a point of their top. the combined judgment of the financial community was predicting an early settlement of labor complexities. No matter what delays occur in the settlement of the coal and rail strike, it Is becoming increasingly evident that the market is not to be discouraged by surface currents, such as labor unrest.

GRAIN PRICES SHARPLY LOWER ON jIG SALES Eastern Connections Drive Wheat Down Carrying Others Along. By United Press CHICAGO, July 17.—Grain prices were sharply lower at the close of the Chicago Board of Trade today. Heavy selling by houses with eastern connections was the principal factor in the decline in wheat, the other grains showing some independent strength but dropping in sympathy with wheat. While no definite cause for selling by the seaboarders could be given among local traders, it was believed that the possibility of peace in the rail strike have induced the heavy selling. Local houses followed the Easterners and prices were off about 3 cents on wheat until a rally at the close gained about 1 cent of the loss. Provisions were lower.

When this estimate is taken in connection with the Geological Survey figures that 100,000,000 barrels of crude oil has been added to storage In about a year.
