By United Press NEW YORK, June 18.—Reports from Youngstown of improvement in iron and steel buying and a Philadelphia dispatch that the Baldwin Locomotive Works has been gradually expanding operations, served to check irregularity which has developed among the industrial leaders in Tuesday’s late trading, and stocks displayed a steady tone in the early dealings.

Wheat Recedes —Corn Well Into High Territory, By United Press of corn, grains closed higher on the Board of Trade today. Wheat receded from anew hign point on the crop in late general realizing. Recent leading buyers reduced their lines in the belief that the present advance had run its course. Winnipeg broke sharply at the close. Experts aggregated 500,000 bushels. Crop news was mixed. Shorts reinstated their lines, confident that no immediate set-back anticipated in the wheat market. Resting firmly at the top in the day's advance, corn closed well into new high territory. Some profittaking developed when leading industries left the market, but was of insufficient strength to affect values Oats lost some of its earlier gains following issuance of a favorable Government report.

IMPROVEMENT NOTED IN HARDWARE SALES Only a Few Prices Advanced; Number of Reductions. By Times Special NEW YORK, June 18. —Hardware Age in its weekly review of the hardware markets say": ■ Reports received from hardware jobbing centers show that there has been an increase in business during the past week. Several days of good weather have done much to increase the sales sot seasonal merchandise such as lawn mowers, garden hose, screen cloth etc Automobile accessories are also selling well in the great majority of jobbing centers, while sales, of builders’ hardware continued to maintain their high average. Although conditions have improved somewhat, there is still much to be desired. It is the general opinion, however, that there will be no decided change for the better until tiie political aspect becomes more, settled than it is at present, and until the weather becomes warmer than it has been. Many well informed factors in the trade predict exceptionally good fall business and the slimness of stocks would seem to hear this prediction out. A few price advances have been recorded, but the greater number of changes during the week have been in the nature of reductions. * Receipts. 800: market, active, 50c lower: cull to choice, $3.50% 10 50.

Thus the Yankee regulars, who at first intended to give Gazella only SSOO, were compelled by the judge to slip him a full share calling for better than $6,000.
