Obviously, business statistics cannot go on indefinitely reaching new peak figures, but easy money, continued demand, high purchasing power and improved conditions in Europe all furnish sound reasons for expecting the maintenance of generally prosperous and sound conditions.” Commission Row PRICES, lb RETAILERS FRUITS Apples —I 1 anc-.v Unmet Golden bb( $4.5013)5: Jonathan, bbl.. $4ti15.25: Delicious. 40-lb.

INDUSTRIALS SAG STEADILY WITHOUT BALDWIN’S LEAD Ground Given Suddenly— Seems to End Covering Temporarily. By E. Walter Muckier NEW YORK. Nov. 30.—Industrials sagged steadily Monday, evidently ' missing the inspiring leadership of ; Baldwin. On Saturday when Baldwin touched 164, its high for the | move, the stock gave ground with a i I suddenness which indicated that j urgent covering had been ended at | that point at least for tiie time be- ; ing. Further proof that stock is for sale was offered in Monday's market, ! I when Baldwin yielded an additional j 4*3 )>oints with offerings rather \ heavy. Most of the pressure which j came in was liquidation. The recent j example of the danger of selling i Baldwin is still too fresh to on- , I courage any new pressure against ■ the issue. Follow Baldwin | Most of the leading industrials were prone to follow the example of Baldwin although, naturally, not 1 to the same extent. There were a few exceptions and these stood out all the more | prominently by virtue of their > scarcity. Congress eighr was an out- | standing feature in this group, jump- ! ing s*,i points when tiie Porto Rican American Tobacco . Company, renewed its bid for the company. Some time ago negotiations were under way in this quarter, but Congress Cigar asked S7O per share for Its stock. Porto Rican desires 200,000 shares outstanding and is willing to pay $63 per share. So far the negotiations are still in 1 the discussion stage. Following re- ■ newal of these discussions today, the market rose to 55, anew high for | the year. j Gas Stocks Lead Consolidated Gas led the New York utilities in fairly active trading, consolidated crossing 113 in heavy tradi ing. The immediate basis of the ad- , vance was the Supreme Court decision overriding New York States $1 I gas ruling. Brooklyn Union Gas also moved higher. Call money rose to 5*7 per cent, a not surprising development. On th eve of the month-end settlements. money is usually tight and just before the Dec. 1 and Jan. 1 : turnover the scarcity is more proI nounoed that usual. Millions in dii vidends will he paid off on Dec. 1, ! • probably more than on an previous ; : line date.
