STOCKS OPEN LOWER; HEAVY PROFI T TAKING Fractional Drop of Leading Industrials—Cast Iron Pipe Rallies.

Average Stock Prices

Averue price of twenty industrial stocks, 110.07. off .44 Average price of twenty rvtils, 06.13, up .22. Hil United Press NEW YORK, Anril 17.—bhe week's easier tone in eai’ money was explained by the weekly statement of the Federal Reserve Yank of New York, which showed a reserve ratio of 78.2 against 75.6 per cent, reflecting a comfortable situation existing in the local money market. This imparted some encouragement to the speculative sentiment, but stocks continued irregular in the early dealings with a predominance of losses. Thursday’s late profit-tak ing among the leading industrials was in evidence and further fractional recessions took place in steel, Baldwin and American Can. Cast Iron Pipe, however, rallied 2 points to 157. Prices in the main body of stocks maintained a confident tone around noon unaffected by selling in special groups especially in the oils and sugar. Pressure in oil shares was attributed to the reductions of from 15c to 20c In the various grades of Pennsylvania crude and the rumors of an impending cut in Mid-Con-tinent. prices. Marland reached a newhigh on the move at 34 7-8 Cuba Can preferred, sold at 55*4, anew- lowon the present reaction. American Can’s behavior was one of the most impressive features of trading in the Industrial list. Local Bank Clearings Bank clearing* Friday amounted to $2 - 819.000. Bank debits were $6,483,000.
