■SHARP RECOVER! FEATURES STOCKS IN LATE TRADING Rally Gains Momentum in Closing Minutes of Short Session, STEEL SETS THE PACE Breadth of Recovery Suggests Market Lies in StrongHands, The WALL STREET JOURNAL NEW YORK, Feb. 16.—Overnight business news was decidedly constructive. particularly the announcement from Youngstown that Republic Steel had withdrawn from the market as a seller of semi-finished steel for the remainder of the year, owing to its having sold up to the limit of Its output. Operations of all steel mills are gradually Increasing, with U. S. Steel close to its laat year’s peak. Professional traders had ex pected further recessions on the first sales of the day. Instead of this the leading industrials such as U. S. Steel. American Can and Stude'oaker, showed surprising strength at the opening and regained fractionally the ground lost Friday. First Hour Fair-sixed recoveries were made by steel, Baldwin, American Can, New York Central and other Industrial and rail leaders In the first hour. Great encouragement was derived from the constructive character of the weekly business reviews which demonstrated that fundamentals in the economic situation were strong and afford no excuse for the week's severe reaction in stock values. It was declared recent gains in trade had been maintained and In some cases extended and that moat of the important statistical measures reflected larger operations. Closing Hour Stocks continued to gather momentum on the recovery throughout the last hour, until a brisk rally was in progress at the close. Sheel common came back 1% points to 105. Baldwin 2% to 123 and other speculative leaders regained proportionate amor.ts of the ground lost Friday. The day’s late recovery suggested to many market observers that Friday's reaction might have been of a corrective rather than destructive nature and that many of the favorites had not been entirely abandoned by their recent supporters. Twenty active industrial stocks on Saturday averaged 98.06, up 1.43 per cent. Twenty active rails averaged 81.UO. up .61 per cent.

WHEATAND OATS SCORE ADVANCES Corn Stubbornly Holds to Its Opening Gains, Bu T'nlted Financial CHICAGO. Feb. 16. TV heat and o.ita scored sharp advances in today’s irading on the Board of Trade. Corn held firmly to opening advances. Wheat made most of Us gains when Friday's sellers reinstated their lines. Factors that brought these buyers into the market were predictions of small farm reserves and reduction In Southwestern wheat acreage. Corn was under pressure, caused by liberal receipts, but held firmly to Us opening gains. Oats were directly under influence cf other grains and scored advances. Domestic demand improves gradur :ly.

Grain Briefs CHICAGO, Feb. 16.—Local sentiment is inclined to the short side of both wheat and corn and the magket is susceptible to selling pressure whenever there Is a let-up in fresh demand. Braking up of country roads looms as another factor to hold back country offer Inca Fairly good movement is reported getting under way in all directions. Oats show a disposition to break away from the influence of com. It seems to bo the only thing this grata can do to reach its natural value in view of the increase in consumption. Most Pacific Coast wheat arriving at eastern seaboards is of a very soft variety, much white wheat and comes in competition with Australian varieties.

BONDS ARE STEADY IN DAY'S SHORT SESSION Low Rale on Call Money Regarded as Partly Responsible. Bu ’ nited Finn mini NEW YORK, Feb. 1C. —The ability of the bond market to work Independently of radical movements in stocks was demonstrated again today by the steadiness in all parts of the bond list in the face of the late break In stocks on Friday. The bond market performed well, due In no small part to the low call money rate of 4 % per cent ruling over the week-end. The fact that new bond offerings for the week were confined to the $150,000,000 Japanese loan, outside of a few small municipals, left the field fairly clear for the listed issues. Pub I lie Utilities did well. Copper and steel bonds showed up much better than oils, as the latter group is still agog over the Teapot Dome investigation Railroad bonds have done little more than back and fill all week, though some Issues have been active and generally steady. Traction bonds have been especially active, though most of the dealings have obviously been done by specula tlve interests. Liberty bonds brought up the rear for the week, trading being desultory | In character. CURB ISSUES GAIN AS OFFERINGS ARE TAKEN Market Hardens Soon After Opening Call—Oils Rebound. Bu Vnited I innncial NEW YORK. Feb. 16—The curb market opened barely steady today under a drive, of selling orders which probably represented the tale end of Friday's bear raid. Soon after the opening call, however, these offerings began to be absorbed in good style and by 3 0:30 a decided hardening tendency had appeared. Prairie Oil followed its drop to 226% with a rebound to 230, while Standard of Indiana regained a point after dip ping to 59ff1. On the upswing Chasej brough jumped 12 points over the i opening to 391.

Steadiness featured cattle trading, due to the usual small week-end receipts of 200 lie-ad. Steers and No. 1 heifers showed an advance of 25 to 50 cents for the week, while cows, canners and cutters were regarded as generally steady with last week's close.

That Fall and Secretary of the Navy Denby were the two men primarily responsible for transfer from the Navy to the Interior Department by President Harding of the naval oil reserves. 3. That Denby approved the terms of the leases and the contracts for exchanging oil for tank storage, ovei the vigorous protests of naval officers, who held the contracts illegal under the law of 1920. Negotiations Early 4. That Fall was negotiating with Sinclair about Teapot Dome shortly after he took office in March. 1921, although the reserves were not transferred to the interior department untilJune. 1921. 6. That first Doheny and then Sinclair had been trying for a long time to get Teapot Dome. Claims held by the Pioneer Oil Company had been held invalid by the Government and this apparently caused Doheny to drop the matter. 6. That Sinclair bought off the own ers of these prior claims, agreeing to pay $1,000,000 to the Pioneer Oil Company; $1,000,000 to F. G. Bonfils, end Leo Stack of Denver, and various other sums to other claimants, to prevent Interference to his negotiations with Fall for Teapot Dome. Information Withheld
•. That Fall, making the Ter.pot Dome lease secretly ordered Depart ment of Interiors employes not to give out any information regarding the lease. 8. That Fall thought it unnecessary to ask Attorney General Daugherty's opinion regarding the leases and that Daugherty had expressed informally and verbally a belief the leases were valid. 9. That the whole question of the legality of the leases was discussed at least casually in the Cabinet, though individual Cabinet officers in separate statements said they did not remember this and President Coolidge, who as Vice President, attended Cabinet meetings, could not recall it. Roosevelt Quits Company 10. That Archie Roosevelt, brother |of Assistant Secretary of the Navy Roosevelt quit Sinclair’s employ be- | cause he suspected fraud and cor- : ruption in connection with the ?*• | leases. 11. That Attorney General Daugh- | erty and Fall both knew the oil leases had been held invalid by an attorney ! of the Standard Oil Company, who ad- | vised his company not to bid on those ! terms,’ Development of these facts by the committee has! brought about this action: Adoption by the Senate of a resolution demanding Denby resign, which President Coolidge has served notice he will ignore. Adoption of a resolution for appointment of special counsel to prosecute the matter civilly and criminally. Appointment by Mr. Coolidge of Owen J. Roberts and Atlee Pomerene as counsel for this purpose. LONDON "PLAYS'’ STORY British Press Says Oil Scandal May Become International. By Vnited Press LONDON. Feb.
