STOCKS ADVANCE IS RAIL LEASERS ’ ACCEPTPROVISO Expression of Favor Toward President’s Terms Serves as Stimulant. EARLY TRADE RUNS DULL Closing Reaction Lends Tonic Effects to Rail Issues and Industrials. By United Financial NEW YORK. Aug. 12.—The Wall Street Journal today says: Announcement of the railway executives' acceptance of President Harding’s seniority terms, which came after the market had been in session more than an hour, completely overshadowed other developments relating to stock values. Trading dragged lazily during the first fifty minutes, but the whole market was stimulated by the decision providing for th@~ return of the shopmen to their posts. Professional - operators immediately concluded that ther position and advance of rail issues into new high ground this week had been discounting early settlement of labor troubles. Their selling on the theory that the news was out had a sharpening upon enthusiasm among the stocks. Hence the prospective railroad peace found more forcible reaction in the industrial class. New highs for the year were attained by International Harvester, Sears Roebuck and Columbia Gas, while special strength was shown by Bethlehem, Lackawanna and other issues concerned in the proposed steel merger.

CHICAGO GRAINS RECEDE LOWER; PRICES WEAKEN - u w / Com Follows In Sympathy as Oats Yields With Closing Reductions. By United Financial CHICAGO. Aug. 13.—A1l grain prices closed at new low levels for the present crop on the Chicago Board of Trade today. The market wag extremely weak, except for some support in the nearby shipments, where fear of congestion on the railroads induced some buying to cover local shortages. Ixiwer prices for wheat at the gulf, where considerable quantities of grains have been shipped for export, has resulted in a heavier movement to the Chicago market. Weather and crop reports from most sections of the West and Northwest continued favorable and indicated heavy receipts would continue unless the car shortages became more serious. Unconfirmed reports that several large railroads operating in the Southwest had placed embargoes on livestock shipments was taken as a Blight) bullish factor among traders, but the bearish news was t(fo strong to hold prices steady. Com dropped in sympathy with wheat, after showing a little independent strength shortly after the opening. Crop reports are favorable and receipts unusually heavy for this time of the year. There has been some export buying, but it was only apparent on the dips and did not affect the market to any extent. Oats showed some strength on buying by local elevator Interests, but the weak trend of the market induced ate selling and prices closed about half a cent lower on all crops. Lack of domestic demand, as well as an absence of export business, has had a decided bearish influence on the trading throughout the week. Provisions were dull and prices closed irregular. chicacoTcrain table —Aug. 12— By United Financial WHEAT — Open- Hlrh. to*. Close.

GEIUL TIDES MOVE ON DESPITE STRIKEPROBLEWI Dealers Trace Improvement tp Confidence in Crop Possibilities, JOBBERS BUY CAUTIOUSLY Confine Purchases to Small Orders With Subsequent Business in View. By w. n. GRIMES United Financial Staff Correepondcni NEW YORK, Aug. 12.—Strikes naturally remain the primary consideration in business, but the remarkable feature is not that they have slowed down progress, but that business does go ahead in spite of them. A coal strike has brought a fuel shortage, the probability of a fuel famine next winter .priority orders artd the closing of some industries. Still there is no change in the tone of confidence. Apparel dealers In New York describe business as better than expected and a big merchandise fair can draw thousands of buyers, who not only look but buy. The last two weeks' have ended with the coal strike on the verge of settlement and that is true this week. Probably the big reason for the underlying confidence is the condition of the crops as shown by the government. This Is the week’s line-up in the principal industries. Corn and Crops In earn, hay, potatoes, apples and some of the other crops, record yield crops are possible. In the grain crops the high conditions of July are maintained. Cotton needs rain in some parts of the South, but the condition seems quite as favorable, if not more so, than in recent weeks. Prices of grains have made new lows this week, but cotton has been sharp rally. Iron and Steel Bradstreets say about 16 per cent of the furnaces active July 1 are now die because of the coal strike. Pig iron is up $1 and $2 for the week and up $2 and $5 as compared with a month ago. Finished steel, according lo figures by the Iron Age is $8 and $lO higher than a month ago, but the ndex number-jaf thi® authority is $3 lower than a year ago. The average price of eight principal iron and steel prices is $48.11 this xveek and $47.02 last. Unfilled orders are at the high est point since April, 1921. Dry Goods and Textiles The national merchandise fair in New York has brought upward of 5,000 buyers and retailers. Buying for the most part is in small lots. There s, however, opinion that' a late but large fall trade can be expected. Woolens and worsteds for next season show more activity than any other line in the textile trades. Automobiles. Price cuts helped the automobile business because it convinces the consuming public that the Industry is ready to pass on the lower cost of production. Unfilled orders, which were large at the beginning of this month, may show some but not much reduction because of the price changes. > Building. Building figures for July record a reduction under those of June, but still are far ahead of those of last year. Lumber business is brisk and remain firm and have an upward tendency. Railroads. Total ear loadings for four full weeks of July reveal 3,500,080 cars loaded on the country’s railroads as against 3,461,000 cars in the preceding four weeks of June, a rather small effect of the railway strike, although he increase In movement of new erop wheat would ordinarily have brought a gain in car loading. The July movement was approximately 300,000 cars, or 10 per cent ahead of that of a year ago, when wheat movement was very heavy- In June the movement was 11 per cent ahead of 1921. Reports filed with the interstate commerce commission show that 199 out of 200 class one roads had operating revenues totaling $472,880,600 in June, which was an increase of 2% per cent over the same month last year, while their operating expenses amounted to $363,335,000, a decrease of 4 J /i per cent compared with June, 1921.
