HIGHER RATES FAIL TO STOP STEELUPTURN Call Money Rises to Meet Drop of $50,000,000 in Brokerage Loans.
Average Stock Prices
Average of twenty industrials Thursday was 221.34. up 1.94, new high. Average of twenty rails was 138.18. up 145. Average of forty bonds was 95.74, up. .05. IS / tilled Prcxx NEW YORK, Aug. 17.—Stocks turned irregular today due to a rise in the call money rate as a result of local banks withdrawing $50,000,000 from the market to meet week-end requirements. Earlier dealings had seen continuance of the rise in progress for the last two days, stimulated by a drop of $50,654,000 in brokerage loans. Declines were gradual, however, and due entirely to profit taking. The street was not frightened by the behaviour of call money and many were looking for a substantial let up in pressure next week. United Steel was the feature of the day. Turning over in huge amounts that stock soared to anew high on the movement at 149% up to 2% and held more than half of the gain. Independent steels profited by the rise in the leader, Republic and Bethlehem making the best gains. American Smelting, American <Can, Sears Roebuck, Loft, Graham Paige and several other issues rose to new high ground. Active trading at higher prices took place in several of the oils, coppers, motors, tobaccos and motor accessories. Manhattan Electric Supply dropped to anew low for the year at 42 and recovered only partially. Late in the day small declines were noted in Packard, Radio, Hupp, Studebaker, Warner Brothers Pictures A, Chrysler and Atlantic Refining. The whole list was unsettled toward the close, as call money spurted to 6% per cent. Renewals had been made at 5 per cent. Describing the market the Wall Street Journal’s financial review today said: Stringencies reappeared in the call loan market today, checking a vigorous advance in the main body of stocks. Further sweeping gains were scored in the early dealings under the stimulating influence of a $50,000,000 decrease in brokerage loans during the week ended Aug. 15 and the decrease in the same period of $59,000,000 in member bank borrowings at the Federal reserve.

In the Stock Market
(By Thomson & McKinnon) NEW YORK, Aug. 17.—The bright outlook for a continuation of the upward price movement dimmed today, by the Stiffening of the call money rate. It was reported that this change was due to ■withdrawals made by out-of-town institutions which only a few days ago practically flooded the market with funds. An advance in call money rates to 6 per cent can hardly be regarded as burdensome as lon gas the rediscount rate is, but a point below that figure. Nevertheless, it does create a spirit of uncertainty among traders who view any higher rates as a signal approaching acuteness in credit and to be followed by a corresponding reaction In the stock market. The effect of uncertainty was clearly Indicated in today’s activities. While the market as whole acted well, there was a lack of spontaneousness which was so evident Thursday and the market besides being subject to profit-taking even in the early transactions was much more selective. The lesson to be drawn from today’s action seems to be that the credit situation has hardly been improved enough to finance a sustained upward price movement, there until It is, the stock market will probably be usbject to irregularity. i New York Curb Market —Aug. 17— American Gas ••••*•••••••••••••••••170 Am R 3S£i 11 *• • •••••••••••••••••••••• 86 Continental Oil ••••••••••••••••••••• I7 3 /b Bancitaly ..••• Humble Oil 80 Vi Imp Oil of Canada •••#•••••••••••• 66*2 Int Pfte 38 3 4 Ohio Oil ••. •• ••• .•••••••••••••••••• 62 Prairie Oil and Gas 47V4 Prairie Pipe Line •••••••••••••••••••187V4 S O Indiana •.75 3 b S O ICansas 21 T's S O Kentucky ••■•••• •4• •• • • •••••• 1267 / 8 S O Nebraska ....•••••••••••••••••• 43 S O Ohio 74 1n Vacuum Oil 80Ve Mountain Prod 23V4 New Mex & Ariz Ld 10 Salt Creek Prod ..•••■••••••••••••••• 27 - /4 Durant Motors, Dei 13 Pantepee 11 Elec Bond and Share 100 V* Elec Investors 61V4 General Baking B 10Va Sparks & Vr ........••110 National Leather 4 N E Power 26 Serv El 14/i Cities Service Com 65 Cities Service pfd * ..............*.• 99 3 8 S E Power 4940 Associated Gas A 48Vs Marmon 44 V 2 United L Sz P A 24Va United Gas Sr Imp 135 Va Warner Bros B 75*/?

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
In the Cotton Market
NEW YORK. Aug. 17.—There was a strong disposition on the part of traders to buy the cotton market, and was not until liberal offers around 19.50 for October and December were uncovered that profit taking appeared. A reaction of 40 points followed. As far as we are concerned, lt still puzzles us to decide the proper weight to give the many reports of deterioration and insect damage being received. A heavily fruited plant usually sheds some surplus fruit so that the rest may mature. It is probably safe to say that at least a normal deterioration has already begun. The advance has had a tendency to check hedge selling. It has also brought about considerable short covering. To buy cotton at 19.50 one should be quite sure that the crop is smaller than our current Ideas. At the present writing, we do not think it is. NEW ORLEANS High. Low. Close.

OATS CLOSES AT NEW LOW; WHEAT DOWN Hedging Pleasure Causes Grain Irregularity in Pit Trading. By United Press CHICAGO. Aug. 17.—Hedging pressure after an early rally sent wheat prices to an irregular close on the Board of Trade today. September corn showed strength on short covering, but the deferred deliveries weakened. Oats dropped to new lows on the crop. Wheat closed %c lower to %c higher. Corn ranged from T sc down to tic up, and oat was off Vs to %c. Provisions were slightly lower. Wheat opened easy on disappointing Liverpool cables, but a good rally followed as the result of short covering and commission house buying. Elevator interests at Minneapolis hedged in the December delivery. According to a Broomhall report, European importers are waiting for lower prices beofre purchasing. September corn met with fair demand. but the deferred deliveries were sold as the result of rains in lowa and Nebraska. Short covering aided the early rise in September. September and December oats touched new lows on the crop at the opening. Cash interests were moderate buyers. Chicago Grain Table Aug. 17WHEAT— Prev. Open. High. Lox. Closr. close.

In the Grain Market
CHICAGO. Aug. 17—Wheat: The Liverpool wheat market is disinclined to follow anv advance in North American markets. Their trade having in mind a good start for the new Australian, Argentine crops, also the commencing of harvesting Canada. This indifference of importers will have much to do with preventing any sustained advance in prices. The apathy of the foreign buyer Is shown each day in the estimates or export business, the seaboard finding nothing more than a moderate trade ln Mantobas. The first threshing returns received from Manitoba show good yield, harvest should be ln full swing within another week. There Is a better outward movement from North American than a year ago Bradstreets giving clearances this week at 12,926 000 against 9,142.000 a vear ago and total since July 1. forty-nine mtllion against thirt.v-six million. There seems a friendly sentiment to the market around the present level based upon the price rather than any other factor, demand of this sort ought to keep prices steady until such as the hedging sales from the Northwest begin to appear. We foresee no distinct trend until further dc\elopments. Coarse grains, good rains over lowa and Nebraska started the* corn market lower, firmness appearing later on response to action of cash corn. Current receipts are still very smal land there Is sufficient demand for the yellow' and white to make prices firm. Outside of the small movement of old corn Into Chicago there is element of strength ln the market. Provisions, in this market, it is noticable. that on every small rally in price thd’ offerings Increase but It is not discoverable that there is any Important buying.
