Average Stock Prices

f Average of twenty industrials Saturday f was 198.36. up .77. Average of twenty rails was 143.03. up .98. Average of forty bonds was 98.41, up .01. By United Press NEW YORK, Oct. 3—Some Irregularity was noted at the outset of trading on the Stock Exchange today, but losses were small and overbalanced by gains in rails and a few of the industrials. Nervousness prevailed due to expectations of a stiffening of money rates as a result of a large deficit in reserves of the associated banks reported after the close on Saturday. United States Steel was about steady, while General Motors shares continued their gain, the old issue rising a point to 269. General Electric was unchanged at 136 Vi; Allied Chemical lost Vs to 161%, and Du Pont was at its previous close of 338. C. & O. Leads Chesapeake & Ohio continued to lead the railroad division, rising 1% points to 210%, anew record high. Canadian Pacific rose to within Vi of the 200 mark, equaling its record high. Western Maryland, Chesapeake Corporation, Missouri Pacific and New Haven were fractionally higher. Union Pacific rose a point to 193%, anew high. Utilities were in renewed demand. In this group Consolidated Gas was bid up nearly a point, and others fractionally. Moo f rs were steady. Heavy buying orders accumulated over Sunday as a result of the market’s impressive recovery toward the end of last week. Demand converged on standard rails, following the rise in Dow-Jones’ rail average to a record high of 143.03 at Saturday’s close. Industrial leaders also were buoyant. Strong at Noon Stocks continued to display a stropg tone around noon. Recessions in pivotal issues brought fresh demand from outside sources, indicating that the re-investment of month-end dividend and interest disbursements was, proceeding in large volume. Sears Roebuck’s new high for 1927 at 79 represented the stock’s best pri e since the split-up of old shares. September sales of Sears Roebuck totaled $24,608,712, against in September, 1926, an increase of $2,160,835, or 13.7 per ■cent. They were the largest in the f company’s history and $2,584,000 or llTTper cent above the next largest September, which was in 1919. Sales in September that year were about $22,025,000.

By United Press WASHINGTON, Oct. 3.—Northern trans-continental railroads today requested the interstate commerce commission to modify its order of last Jtily reducing freight rates 13 cents a hundred pounds on deciduous fruits other than apples, moving from California eastward via middle and southern tran-contl-nental routes. The Great Northern; Northern Pacific; Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul; the Spokane, Portland & Seattle, and the .Oregon, Washington Railroad and Navigation Company pointed out to the commission that* the order could be construed to require a reduction on deciduous fruit movements via the Northern Pacific gaeways whereas the record did not show that north movement should be included in the reduction. i “If the order is so construed, a compliance therewith by the northern lines will result in lower rates on deciduous fruits from northern California than on the same commodities to the same destinations from the intermediate fruit territory served by the northern lines in the States of Washington and Oregon and will result in a violation of the long and short haul clause unless they simultaneously reduce their rates on deciduous fruits from Washington and Oregon to the level of those prescribed by the commission from California,” the road’s brief stated.

LOW OPENINGS AWAIT PRIVATE CROPJIEPORTS All Grajns Off at Beginning of Chicago Session Today. By United Press 1 CHICAGO, Oct. 3.—Pending receipts of private crop reports late today, traders were inclined to be bearish. Wheat opened % to M cent lower; corn, % to 1% cents down, and oats, unchanged to % cent lower. Private crop reports are expected to show a decrease of about 30,000,000 bushels from the recent Government figures on the spring wheat crop. Liverpool cables were no influence here. The heavy movement of grain continued and was the chief factor in depressing prices. Good weather was reported in the corn belt although some damage occurred due to heavy winds and rain. The private report is expected to be bearish. The private report on the oats crop was expected to be 15,000,000 bushels lower than the recent Government report. Provisions opened unchanged.
