STOCK DEALING 111 FEW ISSUES MS INTEREST Scattered Leaders Score New Year’s Highs as Prospects Brighten. PRICES GENERALLY HIGH Sharp Advances in Crucible, as Sears-Roebuck Falls, Take Place. By United Financial NEW YORK, Aug. 15.—The Wall Street Journal today says: Wall Street today recognized the prospects of early resumption of coal production as the elimination of a grave menace to Industrial activities. Stocks were strong most of the ses- j sion, reflecting the belief felt in the financial community over the breaking up of the soft coal strike and thi prospects of early peace in the antthracite fields. While only a limited number of stocks reached new high ground for the year, substantial recoveries were scored by most of the active issues. Traders who put out short lines on Monday’s decline found a decided scarcity of offerings from the start of trading. Covering during the morning hours resulted in a general higher level of prices. Around noon the demand for stocks slackened, but prices held around the best levels for the day. Speculation attention during the latter part of the afternoon was focused on a sharp advance in Crucible, which advanced 4 points from Monday’s close. This run up was clearly due to pending developments regarding financing and was virtually ignored by the balance of the list. SearaSoebuck’s abrupt decline was due to impairment of technical position resulting from punishment meted out to the short interests. LOCAL BANK CLEARINGS Indianapolis bank clearings Tuesday were S2.01S.000; bank debits were 55.505,000. NEW YORK LIBERTY BONDS — Aug. 15— Prev. High. Low. Close, close. L.

Aug. 15.—Fresh receipts >f 21,000 hogs and a holdover supply >f more than 8,000 proved too much ’or the market at the Chicago stockyards today and prices were unevenly 10 to 25 cents lower. Local demand vas fair but the Eastern outlet was lot up to normal and shippers did ttle buying. Big killers took about 500 in direct shipments from other oints and were likewise slow to enter he market. Cattle prices showed more strength oday with receipts of only 8,000, of which the killers took about 300 di•ect from other markets. The day’s run was mostly good grades, a few it the poorer classes selling about a nickel lower and holding the advance vithin narrow limits. There was a air demand from Eastern sources. All classes of traders showed considerable opposition to advances in the -heep market, but fat lambs showed trength in the face of slightly lower prices on other classes. Receipts were 13,000. Buyers figure they can make economical gains on feeder lambs, most of which will be matured on grass, which is plentiful. A heavy run of ange lambs has been mostly of poor quality and has been taken eagerly on a feeder basis. BOSTON WOOL MARKET By United Financial BOSTON.

The locals sold on the bulges, but did not press the declines. The market was helped somewhat by the rally in col ton and the steady tone In laid. The latter market was a shade lower tc a shade higher. Hogs were weaker not withstanding small receipts.. Cotton houses were fair selrrs of oil on the upturn, but there was evidence of support and quite a little covering by shorts. The rail situation is being lollowed closely, as a possible factor In the old crops, while cash demand is reported fairly good, cash oil neld strongly at 12® 12 %c. In general the trade is expecting the Government report due within a few davs to show a July consumption of about 175.000 barrels. There were no deliveries today.

CLOSE IRREGULAR 111 GRAIN PRICES ON CHICAGO MART Trading Light and Uneasy in Spite of Strength of Corn and Oats. By United Financial CHICAGO, Aug. 15.—Grain prices closed irregular on the Chicago Board of Trade today. Trading was light and the market somewhat uneasy despite the strength shown by corn and oats. Reports that coal miners and operators had reached an agreement were received by traders just before the close and induced some selling of nearby wheat in the hope movement would be heavier in a few weeks. There was fairly heavy selling pressure in the wheat pit throughout the day. Private reports from the seaboard indicated a number of exporters were offering to resell wheat at lower than purchase prices. Simultaneously European cables were received which pointed to improved crop conditions in most European countries. Com responded to reports from several sections of the Southwest com belt which Indicated drought was looked upon with considerable apprehension and the crop would be far under expectations if rain were not received within a week. There was some buying by Eastern exporters, but the purchases were light, and it was not taken as an indication of any substantial foreign demand. Oats showed a moderate advance in I sympathy with the com market and j closed about % cent higher than yesj torday’s close. Weather and crop re- | ports were not so favorable and there | was fairly active buying by local commission houses near the close of the market. Provisions closed irregular after a day of easy trading and few sales. CHICACO GRAIN TABLE —Aug. 15— By United Financial WHEAT— Open. High. Low. Close.
