STOCK EXCHANGE SESSION CALLED ‘PIKEMEETING’ Broker With 500-Share Order Is Regarded as Extremely Lucky, The WALL STREET JOURNAL NEW YORK. July 14—Attendance was unusually light at the opening of the stock exchange today, but prices were firm under influence of a better foreign exchange market- Reports from the floor 6 aid there were some buyers in steel, while coppers were in demand with Cerro-de-Pasco opening up fractionally and Utah unchanged. Baltimore & Ohio, among the rails, showed an initial advance, while Cosden, among the oils, was off fractionally. * Twenty active industrial stocks on Saturday averaged 89.40, up .33 per cent. Twenty active rails averaged 79.20, up .12 pgr cent. , First Hour The first hour was a very empty affair with most of the trading originating on the floor and prices moved within very narrow limits. Studebaker probably was the most active, selling up fractionally and later sagging. Foreign news was languidly discussed and traders were disposed to await the British note on reparations, but it was admitted, however, 1 that the advance in foreign exchanges j was a significant factor in pre-deter-mining foreign sentiment. Closing Hour One sage-Uke trader at the close of the day’s market remarked that the session had been a “pikers’ meeting” when fifty transactions, all of 100 shares each, showed in a line. Any broker with a 500-share order was regarded as lucky. A selling order for 600 shares of Studebaker put that stock down % while a buying order of 400 shares in Anaconda accounted for a - half-point -advance in that issue. The undertone, however, was firm, substantially what it has been for the past week. Local Bank Clearings Indianapolis bank clearings Saturday were $4,103,000: for the week. $28,332,000. Bank debits Saturday were $7,551,000; for the week. $40,075,000. Foreign Exchange Bu United Financial NEW YORK, July 14. —Foreign exchange closed higher: Sterling, demand $4.6*4.

WHEAT IS LOWEST . SINCE btrUHt WAR Cloud of Canadian Production Overhangs Trading, By Timet Special CHICAGO. July 1^. —Led by wheat, which hit new low figures on the crop, all grain prices were sharply lower on the Chicago Board of Trade today. All deliveries of wheat struck new lows since before the war. Selling was on by longs and buyers refused to take hold on continued j-eports that the Canadian wheat crop would hit spectacular figures. The movement of new wheat in the Southwest continued heavy and added to the bearish tone of the trade. Com prices, which were strong throughout the early trading, succumbed to the bear attack on wheat and prices slumped sharply at the close. Trading In oats was slow. Prices held practically steady until the big bear movement started in the wheat pit. . Provisions closed weak and lower. Chicago Grain Table —July 14 — WHEAT— - Prev. Open. High. Low. Close, close.
