PORKERS UNEVENLY WEAK TO 5 CENTS UP
MAIN INDUSTRIALS EARLY FAVORITES. MAKING ADVANCES Railroad Stocks Mixed — Pressure on Chicago Great Western. Bn f’nitrd PrcRH NEW YORK, Feb. 10.—Leading industrial stocks advanced in early trading. .Steel and General Motors were the early favorites. Rails were still somewhat mixed, with Chicago Great Western under severe pressure. As the session began Wall Street was looking forward to two developments of prime stock market importance. One was publication of U. S. Steel unfilled tonnage statement for January, due at noon; the other the dividend meeting of General Motors Corporation, scheduled for 3:30 o’clock. It was generally expected that the tonnage statement would show a small decrease. If tills proves to be the case, it will be regarded as constructive, Baldwin Tiedord Motors gained % to 155, while Baldwin jumped three points to 172, the highest price on record, and Radio Corporation advanced to new high ground on the movement at 56%, up nearly 6 points from yesterday’s low. Wheeling & Lake Erie common opened at 80 ; off 10. A wave of selling swept over the genera! list at noon in the wake of publication of the United States Steel unfilled tonnage statement for January. The report showed an unexpectedly large decrease ’of 163,000 tons, and was seized upon by professional operators as a basis for a vigorous drive on the principal industrial issues. Declines Steel common sold down to 157, off l a , B from its earlier high, and declines of 1 to 2 points took place in General Motors, Allied Chemical and 1 other leaders. Rails also turned ‘ heavy. Sugar shares were a feature of strength in the morning dealings, advancing under the leadership of South Porto Rico Sugar, which ran up 4 points to 1.72. Accumulation in this group reflected restoration of confidence regarding the raw sugar market, which is displaying a gradual stiffening tendency.

3 FACTORS MAY MAKE TODAY BIG IN STOCK NEWS Street Awaits Word From General Motors and U. s: Steel. By Elmer C. Walzer Manager United Press Financial Service" NEW YORK, Feb. 10.—Jndustrial shares may have their inning in the stock market today with two of the biggest companies in that class scheduled to produce constructive news—United .States Steel and General Motors, the former io report tonnage as? of%Jan. 31 and the'Matter to declare dividends. Another big factor is the rediscount cut probability. Wednesday, as for the past several days rails monopolized the trading, other wide changes occurring only in special issues while sales increased to within striking distance of tho three million mark in the most active market thus far this year. Wheeling Moves Wheeling & Lake Erie again furnished the motive. power, opening at 105, its high of tho day, and then declining to 66%. The early part of the day witnessed a sharp advance through the list, but with conlidence waning in further gains in Wheeling, fears were expressed that the entire market would go under, hence a decission set in which incidentally was arrested and turned into another advance when Wheeling suddenly regained most of its loss. Low-priced, nondividend rails went through wide arcs in the mad buying and selling, but industrials, particularly the high-class pivotal issues of previous <big markets were almost stationary. * Baldwin Locomotive, whose report for 1926 is expected to show earnings exceeding the last few years, shot up rapidly toward the end of the day, closing yvith a gain of 7% points. American Republics gained 4% for the day and Southern Porto Rico Sugar, 3%. Radio Corporation was lip 5%. Rail Activily Good buying yvent ahead in Rock Island on the theory that it was selling too low and this activity stimulated dealing in St. Louis-San Francisco, which owns considerable Rock Island stock, recently placed on a $5 basis. Great Western, which had been soaring on rumors it would be purchased by Atchisoon, dropped abruptly when President Storey of the latter road denied any plans to absorb Great Western. Tape readers were not informed of the exact character of the market until about ten minutes after transactions had occurred on account of the inability of the tickers to keep up with the horde of quotations. Over in the bond market activity went ahead with prices firming up to some extent in various sections, though irregularity continued. Curb .Market Penny stocks monopolized much of the attention in curb dealings. Cotton moved higher while grains declined. Foreign exchange yvas firm, pesetas rising a small amount. Traders were discussing the outcome of the meetings of the premier industria lcorporations Thursday. Steel buying has been on a hand to mouth basis for some time, hence it would not be a nadverse factor if the tonnage statement, which will be issued at noon, should shotv a slight falling off. However, many believe an increase will be shown which would be followed by an increase in constructive sentiment. G. M. C. Earnings General Motors earnings for (he last quarter have been estimated around $45,000,000. Should this figure prove correct eve nthe $2 divind which it is expected will be declared, placing the issue on an $8 basis, Mould seem small and might not have the effect foreseen by many. Incidentally, an advance to the $8 payment has bet*! thoroughly iseounted. t If the London Bank cuts its discount rate today there is every possibility that the New York Federal Reserve Bank will follow suit, adding further fuel to the bullish fires.

Clyde of Pittsburgh, Pa., president of the Carnegie Steel Company, in an interview here said general business would be good for the next six months, and probably for the balance of the year, unless it were disturbed by pessimistic propaganda. “There is no such thing as overproduction in the automobile industry,” he said, “because the increased buying power of the public and tho replacement needed are keeping the motor business in sound shape.” Clyde predicted large buying by the railroads of car equipment.
