STEEL MIN IS FORCED DOWNWARD •BY PROFESSIONALS Bear Raid Follows Buoyant Advance of Rail Group in Early Trading, STUDEBAKER IS INCLUDED Industrial List Succumbs to Pressure After Weak Opening—Sugars Break, The WALL STREET JOURNAL NEW YORK, June 13.—With the New York Central dividend meeting scheduled for the morning, speeula'tive Interest centered in this stock at the opening of the stock market today. On the initial transaction 2,500 shares changed hands at 101, an advance of a full point over the previous close. Other rails were steady, while changes in the industrial list were confined to fractional areas. First Hour Stocks moved quietly during the first hour, the rail group maintaining &> position at the head of the list, bile the industrial group fluctuated somewhat. Speculators seemed to be awaiting the announcement that would folicw the dividend meeting of the New York Central was quiet aecumula tion of this issue, continued, while other rails benefited by the better feeling manifested toward the whole carrier group. Second Hour Establishment of a S7 dividend rate on New York Central was followed in the late afternoon by a wild outburst of trading in this issue, which spurted to 104*$ on heavy dealings as compared with its early morning low of 99~*. This demonstration eleetn fled the whole list and substantial re coveries took place in many sections Standard rails such as Baltimore & Ohio made especially good response. Noon Hour Selling broke out in the steels in the noon dealings, with the result that the whole market was checked in its upward course. Steel common broke to anew low for the year at 941£ and new low points on the move •were touched by Stedebaker, Baldwin and leading industrials. Sugars also broke badly, following a further drop of more than one-half a cent in the price of raws Fourth Hour Another burst of selling occurred in the early afternoon, the efforts of professional having been directed against the steel group and Bethrf|hem. like United States Steel brokand other industrial losses of considerable magnitude followed in the wake of the drive on steels. Demand for New York Central, however, per- ' sisted and the issue wa taken in enormous volume around 103. Closing Hour The day's market session ended in swirl of confused price movements, but one thing was evident and that was the fact that the short inteerst was in the ascendency. Wall Street was frankly disappointed over the failure of the market to follow up the improved tone induced by the dividend .inorease by New York Central, but the short rally that followed was too short-lived to have any influence on the general market. Twenty active industrial stocks on Tuesday averaged 95.37. off 1.25 per cent. Twenty active rails averaged 83.71, off .80 per cent.

RALLY IN WHEAT BOON TO GRAINS News of Inundation in Southwest Causes Late Buying, Bu United Financial CHICAGO. June 13.—Grain prices rallied late, and under the leadership of wheat, closed higher on the Chicago Board of Trade today. As good class of wheat buying followed receipt of unfavorable croft! news from Kansas, Oklahoma and parts of Texas, where excessive rains have caused rivers to inundate farm lands. Corn received good local support on the dip. Country elevators had sufficient supplies to meet trade requirements. Kansas City and other south western markets reported a marked decrease in orders. Oats were dull and neglected, but regained some of their earlier losses. Lard remained weak throughout the session, while ribs maintained a tprong undertone.
