PRICES BREAK UNEVENLY IN HOG TRADING

EXCHANGE VIEWS MOST UNIFORM ACTION OF WEEK Short Session Experiences Considerable Short Covering. Hu United Press NEW YORK, Jan. 29. —Considerable short covering came into today’s brief session, giving the general list a more uniform action than it had enjoyed at any time during the neck. Wide divergence of views still existed in the speculative community and this situation was heightened by the mixed character of the weekly mercantile reviews. / Dun’s reported definite evidence of expanding activity while Bradstreet’s pointed to spotted trade conditions expressing doubt that the January showing of general business would equal that of a year ago. However, these conflisting opinions were taken as evidence of the uncertainty which in variably’arises from the confused surface movements in the business months during the midwinter lull. Nothing has happened yet to change the outlook that the country has ahead of it a period of reasonable prosperity and this fact was reflected in the more comfortable tono displayed by the principal industrial stocks. With gold continuing to pour into this country from abroad and the Federal reserve statement showing rapid expansion in the Nation’s credit resources, a strong groundwork was furnished for a drive against an over-extended short interest.

Though zoo keepers maintain ’gaitors can't be tamed, it was a ease of love at first sight between Aleck and Theodore, and they’ve been friends ever since. Aleck purrs when Theodore feathers. Being a smart Aleck he doesn’t bite the hand that feeds and pets him.

MIXED SENTIMENT CONTROLSWHEAT Buyers Generally Disposed to Be Cautious. Bu United Press CHICAGO, Jan. 29. —Sentiment of wheat traders was mixed today, with a general disposition to be cautious for the time being. Opening prices were %c to %c lower than yesterday’s close. Liverpool failed to respond to the advance of American markets and closed ? g c to lie lower today. Corn opened !gc to %c lower than tlie previous close. Casli corn handlers are exceptionally pessimistic, and freely predict a declining market. Several cars had to be carried over unsold yesterday, and there was general complaint of lack of shipping demand. Oats are regarded by most traders as in a weak position, with indications of increasing hedging pressure and further liquidation by tired longs, while tiie market lacks speculative interest.

U. S. AMBASSADOR DENIER OF STORY Germans Relate Anecdote Concerning U. S. Official. Bu Times Sorriul BERLIN, Jan. 29. —An anedote narrating an adventure of Joseph Choate, erstwhile ambassador of the United States to the court of St. James,' is making the rounds in Germany. It lias been revived by the liberal German press in connection with the recent reintroduction of uniforms for German diplomats and is meant to ridicule the German government’s explanation 'that only bywearing uniforms could German diplomats be safe against being taken for servants. Choate's story is related as follows: After a brilliant banquet at London, where the ambassador of the United States had been one of the few guests in mufti, lie was accosted in the hall by a < bemedalled, uniformed diplomat who haughtily addressed Choate, saying: “Call me a four-wheeler.” America's ambassador bowed politely and with a smile, retorted: “You are a four-wheeler.” Commenting on this apeedote, the German press emphasizes that, (hough Choate's experience proved that diplomats in mufti are running the risk of being taken for servants, the United States Government did not feel obliged to introduce uniforms for its diplomats.

WHEELING STILL MAIN ATTRACTION ON WALL STREET Shorts Closely Held, Implying Corner on Market. % By E. Walter Mockler NEW YORK, Jan. 29.—Wheeling & Lake Erie was the absorbing interest point of the stock market Friday. There seems no doubt but that shorts are in dire straits as is evidenced by- the premium paid for one-day borrowings. Starting at 1-16 of a point, the borrowing price ran up to a full point, which means in plain English that the harassed shorts were willing a pay SIOO per day for each 100 shares of stock owed. Traders who covered their shorts in the open market soon ran the price well above the previous high record and found precious little stock available even at the top figures. - Closely Held The position in Wheeling & Lake Erie is embarrassing because a majority of the stock is very closely held. Apparently- the stock which came out at the full point premium represented stock which had been closely- held. On the face of it the market has all the earmarks of a corner, although technically the market is not cornered so long as stock can be borrowed. Shorts have been called for delivery and more than 18,000 shares were bought on a cash basis today, thus insuring delivery. Stock bought in the regular way would not be available for delivery until Monday, making one more day to pay the big premium. Outside of Wheeling & Lake Erie, there was little in the way of marked interest in the trading. Other rail stocks were backing and filling, while the main line of the bigger rail and industrial leaders held onlysteady. The undertone was firm enough and moderate advances were common. Best Guide Sentiment in the market is still very much mixed. The folio-,vers of the long side persist in the belief that the strong bond market is the best guide and that the trend will swing into the stock market again. On the other hand, the bearish element —and this includes a large proportion of the professionals—believes that the tops for the movement have passed and that the market generally is in a liquidating period with pools distributing. They quote the steady declines ill the leaders from tiie year's high points as evidence of the value of their reasoning.
