MARKET LEADERS FORGE AHEAD If! SPLENDID STYLE | Fisher Body and- Dupont Reach New Highs in Early Dealings, RAIL LIST IS QUIET Carrier Group Awaits Dividend Action of Southern Railway, The WALL STREET JOURNAL new YORK, March 13.—Stocks were stimulated in the early dealings today by a further rebound in francs which sold at 4.46%c, a recovery of a | cent from last week’s low, responding : to the announcement of a $100,000,000 I credit arranged by the Morgan syn- | dicate for the Bank of France. Fracj tlonal gains were scored by Stude- | baker, Baldwin, Steel and American j Can while General Electric spurted 1 two points to 214. First Hour Trading in the carrier list was prac- | ticaliy suspended in the first hour, i pending the outcome of the Southern I Railway directors’ dividend action, I , ** I but the Industrials displayed marked strength on light dealings. High priced issues were inspired by Gen- , eral Electric’s example, Fisher Body reaching anew 1924 high at 214 anfl Dupont a-new high on the movo at ' 133. Buying of Dupont followed an accumulation of GeneraJ Motors for the account of the Morgan interests. From a business standpoint, news could hardly be better, as steel shipments are running close to a high I record. Second Hour Interest in the late morning was practically monopllzed by Southern Railway which spurted to a record | high of 55 in response to the inaug- : uratlon of common dividends at a $5 j rate. After selling at 50 Vi the next 1 transaction was at 64 after which the I gains were made on a fractional basis. ! After the 65 record had been made ! the stock receded to 63% on proflt- ! taking sales.
Noon Hour Professionals took advantage of the noonday dullness to launch a selling movement otenered largely in tho afferingiT of Baldwin and American Can, but their efforts were shortlived and their success indifferent. Staunch support was encountered on the decline and toward one o’clock the stocks had regained most of their ■oases while operations for a rise were ontinued lnsuch specialties as Colorado Fuel it Iron, which succeeded in -duplicating its 1924 higlL Kinney common gained substantially on dividend increase rumors. Fourth Hour Further consideration of the significance of the $100,000,000 credit to France, furnished the basis for important buying of stocks In the early afternoon. Wall Street bankers are convinced that this extension practically guarantees th acceptance of the Dawes reparation plan. Tt is the generally acecpted theory here that the Morgan interests would not have given assistance without the assurances of the French government that Dawes’ plan would be accepted. If this is true the stock market has by no means discounted the developments that will follow. Twenty active industrial stocks on Wednesday averaged 97.58, off .23 per cent. Twenty active rails averaged 81.03, up .10 per cent. Local Bank Clearings Indianapolis bank clearings Thursday warn fit ,207,000; bank debits were SO,005,000.

NEW CREDIT TO FRANCE BOOSTS FRENCH BONDS Other Foreign I/mns Strengthen in Sympathy—l tails Steady. By United Financial NEW YORK, March 3. —Announcement that an American banking group headed by J. P. Morgan & Cos. had established a credit of.not less than $100,000,000 in favor of the Bank of France, influenced a further rise in French government bonds in the early trading on the stock exchange today. French 7 soid at high of 94%, up % point from the previous close and the 8 per cent issue rose % of a point to 97%. French cities 6s were fractionally higher. Other foreign issues were aiso strong in sympathy with the French bonds. In the domestic field, a concerted attack was made on Wilson issues on refinancing rumors. Under persistent pressure the 7%s were driven down from high of 91% to a low of 88 Vi around noon. The sixes lyinged from 85 down to 81 Va and the first sixes were driven from 93% down to 90. The rails were steady with New Orleans, Texas & Mexico the most active, sales varying only fractionally from 87 7 *. Liberty bonds remained approximately as they were throughout Wednesday’s session. OILS ASSUME LEADING ROLE IN CURB TRADE Borne A Scrymser Takes Five-Point .lump—Others Off. By United Financial NE WYORK, March 13.—Trading on the Curb exchange remained light today and the market continued to give evidences of great irregularity. Tho chief trading position again was held by the oils. Borne & Serymrcr opened at 257, but shot up 5 to 262 almost immediately. At almost the same time. Solar Oil sold off 2 to 203 and Prairie Oil off 3 to 247. The market appears ready for a break in either direction as soon as strength is thrown in on either the up or down side. Some nervousness was manifestly due to the injunction proceedings against the Teapot Dome operations which open today in Wyoming. In tho industrials. Ford of Canada shot up 5 to 407, the weaker side of the market being shown by Parke & (Tilford which sold off fractionally from its opening at 27V*. Irregularity was much more pronounced in the oils, other Issues varying up and down only fractionally.

GRAINS ARE WEAK IN ML TRADE Confidence of Whqat Traders Appears Undermined. Bu United Financial CHICAGO, March 13.—Grains dis : played weakness at the opening of | the Board of Trade today. Confidence of local wheat traders was still undermined by statistical developments and political agitation. There -was considerable distress selling on tho part of tired Eastern longH who have given the market consideri able support for many months. It ! was apparent that the wheat put on the market Wednesday would have to be digosted before any change will take place. j Corn displayed a better undertone, but was off at the start due to weakness inwheat and flat demand in all sections. Handlers have accepted wheat as the market leaders, as is indicated by the susceptibility of this grain to wheat influences. Depression gripped oats despite a better cash demand and prices registered fractional recessions. Provisions showed a moderate advance influenced by strong hog markets.

The decline was generally a dime though the market was quotably 10 to 15 cents lower. Trading opened on a $7.65 basis for all weights and classes, compared with Wednesday’s predominating price of $7.75, and a few fancies sold at a top of $7.70, but the force of buying soon spent itself and Kingan buyers began to bid $7.60 and in the absenci of competition, acquired about 1,500 hogs at this price. The bulk of sales, however, was made at $7.65 at which price shippers bought their supplies. Sows and pigs were lower, sows selling down generally from $6.35 and pigs down generally from $6.50, with only selects of good weight commanding $6.75. The day’s receipts touched 18,000 head, inclusive of 506 holdovers and the demand for shipment’ to outside account was insufficient to prove a stabilizing factor as the bulk of the receipts were left to local packers, who took advantage of the situation and made their commitments at lower figures. Trading on a practically unchanged basis featured the cattle market* as receipts were composed largely of common and medium gTades of stock and no incentive to bid prices up was found by buyers who displayed a rather apathetic disposition in their buying. Receipts 900. The Eastern demand for veal suffered a falling off and pi-ices as a result were generally a half dollar lower at sl4 for tops and sl3 to $13.60 for the bulk. Receipts 800. Prices In the sheep and lamb market -were generally steady at sl6 down for native-fed lambs and $9.50 down for ewes. Receipts 100.
