By United Press NEW YORK, Sept. 3—lndustrial blue chips, led by the bluest of them all—United States Steel common—gave a thrilling demonstration on the Stock Exchange today. Steel rose to anew record near 262, while American Telephone and Telegraph made a record as did International Telephone, and several other recent leaders. Over-the-week-end buying orders caused the tape to lag in the early trading when business was at the rate of 8,000,000 shares a day and the market barely succeeded in catching up. At one time tickers were nearly twenty minutes late. Steel, General Motors, General Electric. Westlnghouse and the other blue chips were taken in large blocks. Copper stocks gained sharply and nearly all advanced to new highs on the movement. Utilities likewise were bought in big blocks with their old-time response to buying in evidence.

. Tickers Behind Mail order shares and other merchandising shares were sharply higher. There was some profit-tak-ing. but the losses resulting from it were of little account. In a few instances losses from profit-taking were as much as 4 points, but recoveries quickly followed. Asa group the utilities made the best showing. Coppers were next, while rails did not develop the tsrength of these other leading sections. Oils were active but little changed. On the curb market prices steadily advanced with the tickers becoming later and later in proportion to the expanded buying operations. There, toe. utitlities fared best, although a few special issues were sent up sensationally, one of them gaining 30 points. Cotton prices spurted ahead, but wheat met profit-taking after early strength. Greencastle Couple Robbed Bn Times Special GREENCASTLE. Ind..

WHEAT MARKET MOVES HIGHER IN FIRST SALES Drought Situation, Coupled With Crop Reports, Aids Bulls. By United Press CHICAGO, Sept. 3.—The wheat market opened strong on the Chicago Board of Trade again today. Corn was sharply higher on the continued dry hot weather over the belt, where the situation is now becoming critical. Oats were fractionally higher due to the action in other pits. As the market opened wheat was V*. to % cent higher, corn was up 1 to 3 % cents, and oats were ’a to % cent higher. Bullish sentiment continues in the wheat market and with the drought situation in Argentina becoming critical, a downward revision of the estimates on export grains is being made, which it is expected will have a strong effect on the futures market. Crop reports by private concerns, which are due to come out about midday are expected to be bullish. Liverpool was much stronger todby. , Weather over the corn belt was dry and hot over the week end, and this with the crop report today will probably have the effect of sending the market higher, according to pit men. Receipts are still running light to Chicago.* The crop reports on oats are expected to merely confirm the short production in the northwest and Canada. The market continues to follow the trend of the other grains.
