STEEL DIVIDEND ACTION AWAITED IN STOCK MART Sales Slow Down as Trade Marks Time With Small Deals.

Average Stock Prices

Average of thirty industrials for Monday was 239.64. up 1.40. Average of twenty was 76.92, off .87. Average of twenty utilities was 50.90, up .46. Average of forty bonds was 95.55. off .04. BY ELMER C. WALZER United Press Financial Editor NEW YORK. July 28—Price movements on the Stock Exchange were within a fractional area and j trading continued at 1924 volume | during the first two hours of busi- 1 ness. Steel shares slipped back after early gains, United States Steel losing nearly a point from its high ' and holding 14 point under the previous close of 92%. Bethlehem lost i a fraction and other issues of the group were down slightly in anticipation of adverse action on the United States Steel dividend at the directors’ meeting this afternoon. Around noon small gains were retained by Chrysler and General Motors in the automobile section; General Electric and Westinghouse Electric in the electrical equipments, Standard of New Jersey and Sinclair in the oils, American and Foreign Power and International Telephone in the utilities and Atchison in the rails. Cotton futures and grains sagged j off with December’s wheat making anew seasonal Psw. Silver receded in London. More interest was noted in the bond market, notably in the German section, where German government issues made substantial recoveries from recent lows. There was no feature in the stock market to attract attention, and the tape slowly beat out a series of small fluctuations that represented routine transactions in small lots. Professionals were out of the market temporarily.

On request, sent with stamped addressed envelope, Mr. Ripley will furnish proof of anything depicted by him.

Following is the explanation of Ripley's “Believe It or Not” which appeared in Monday's Times: The Cause of It All—The spark that started the greatest war in history was kindled by a 19-year-old schoolboy. On June 28, 1914, Gavrilo Princip assossinated Franz Ferdinand, heir to the Austrian throne. To avenge the murder, Austria declared war upon Serbia on July 28, 1914, and only a few days later most of the civilized world was embroiled. The youthful assassin never learned the results of his act, as the Austrian authorities kept him in the strictest seclusion and in ignorance of world events. He died about two months before the conclusion of the war, and hence never learned the outcome of the great conflict. Dikki Dikki, the Dwarf King— Dikki Dikki is the ruler of one of the pygmy tribes in the interior of Mindano, Philippines. His puny stature is made even more remarkable by his extraordinary voraciousness. This midget king can eat more at a single sitting than two normal white men three times his size.

CORN FUTURES TAKE LEAD IN GRAINJRADING September and December Wheat Options Make New Lows. BY HAROLD E. RAINTVILLE United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO. July 28— Again September and December wheat went to new lows for the year on a minor fractional decline as the Board of Trade opened today. Scattered selling at the start, largely on overnight orders, found support lacking and the market dipped. There was nothing in the news to account for the continued selling. Liverpool was steady and reported a much better demand. Another Canadian condition report put the crop down to 55 per cent. Corn held fir nr. and a shade higher on the continued hot weather and absence of moisture in the afflicted areas. Oats sagged with wheat and a farctional decline caused the deferred months to equal their season’s lows. At the opening wheat was % to % cent lower, corn was unchanged to % cent higher and oats were % cent lower. Provisions were quoted firm in a slow trade. Liverpool opened steady and varied but slightly, standing unchanged at mid-afternoon. Wheat traders are not expecting much of a market for the present. The prices are so near the 50c level and the range is so narrow that only professionals dare press the market on breaks while there is profit-tak-ing on all small bulges. Until there ir a much better foreign demand there is not much hope for a sustained advance. Corn is attracting more attention than wheat. Short covering gave July a 3-cent advance Monday. The open interest in this month is about 7,000,000 bushels and the visible supply for the entire country is only 6,750,000 bushels. There are but four more trading days left in which to close out contracts. The scarcity of storage room would make the situation unpleasant if track deliveries, which are regular Wednesday, should be heavy. Building Permits F. M.
