In the Stock Market
(Bv Thomson & McKinnon) NEW YORK. March 23.—Optimistic news continues in the basic industries. Today H. C. Frick Company. Steel subsidiary. reported the lighting of hundreds of additional coke ovens. This action must be regarded as a healthy sign as the evident increased demand for coke means increased steel tonnag. From Washington the I. C. C. has ordered drastic freight rate reductions on gasoline and petroleum products on cargoes out of the mid-con-tinent oil fields. Interpretation of this official action is regarded as a beginning of effort to help this basic industry toward better conditions. Whether or not any immediate benefits are forthcoming, the I. C. C. has at least taken steps to remove what has been claimed to be unequitable conditions. Money supply remains ample at unvarying rates and although some withdrawals were made bv banks, the amounts were, hardly anything but routine proportion. A worthwhile feature of the present market is in its broadening power; unlike former periods, when a handful of stocks directed the destinies of all. this market is, in many ways, practically independent. It has worked its own way and some sound economic factor is required to arrest public interest. Today the oil shares were stronger and more active than usual. This group es a whole has legged badly, but with the ielief that better industrial conditions arc here or lust around the bend, substantial buying appeared in htem. The high grade securities maintained the same strong pace and continued to attract buying power, l —— New York Curb Market —March 23 • • • Bid. Ask. American.

In the Cotton Market
ißv Thomson & McKinnon) NEW YORK. March 23.—The cotton market was inclined to be reactionary in ihe early trading. Business was only moderate in volume and the lower drift lo prices looked like a search for the level at. which the trade could be expected to lend its support. We consider the market a normal one, a reaction was probably due after the advance and its narrow limit is onlv additional proof of the sound foundation upon which present values are based. While- the trader might find a small profit on the short side of the market. it is in our opinion, hardly worth the attendant risk. We are more disposed to advise additional purchases on declines than the seeking of minor gains from reactions which may not eventuate. NEW ORLEANS High. Low Close.

Shumaker denied Dale's charge that Shumaker helped elect Jackson Governor, and denied also that he (Shumaker) and D. C. Stephenson joined in instructions anent the 1924 campaign..
GOOD WEATHER BRINGS TUMBLE IN GRAIN PRICES Sudden Drop Follows Rise of Wheat; Corn Leads Downward. By Untied Press CHICAGO, March 23.—Reports ol favorable weather throughout the crop belt and heavy profit taking sent all grain futures tumbling in late trading on the Board of Trade today after wheat had reached a new high on the current movement m early dealings. Corn led all grains in the downward movement, prices dropping more than 2 cents in the last few minutes of the session. The March delivery of wheat closed at sl.4o'*, after touching a new* high at $1.42’2. Opening figures: Wheat, unchanged to cent higher: corn, cent off to Vs cent higher, and oats unchanged to ’s cent up. Provisions opened a shade lower. Liverpool's failure to respond to Thursday's advance in Chicago wheat was responsible for the irregularity of the opening. Sentiment continues divided, many traders fearing a short crop and others believing it entirely too early to make any reliable estimate. Chicago Grain Table WHEAT ' Me -ch 23 p rev Open Hieh. Low.
