WALZER United Press Financial Editor NEW YORK, Sept. 10.—The decline in the stock market was resumed today after the list firmed up at the outset on an accumulation of overnight short covering. Weak spots cropped out after the opening and bears resumed their attacks. These operations met with considerable success and the entire market turned lower before the end of the first hour. The decline was orderly, however, and activity was restricted by the impending noon publication of August unfilled orders by the United States Steel Corporation. Selhlig first was apparent in General Electric, Pennsylvania, Transamerica and Westinghouse Electric, all three latter issues breaking to new lows, while General Electric came within a fraction of its low for the present shares. Pressure Spreads This pressure gradually spread through other sections of the list and was augmented by a spectacular 10-point decline in Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific, when directors suspended common dividend payments. Rock Island sold at 20 and then recovered. Other railroad shares suffering from dividend doubts, including Baltimore & Ohio, Texas & Pacific, and Missouri Pacific preferred were weak, most of them selling at new lows. Steel common, on the other hand, was strongly supported, holding a fractional gain through most of the morning. Steadiness in Steel was a bulwark for the bullish forces and prevented selling operations from gaining headway. American Can was another firm spot, holding more than a point above its low of the previous session. Allied Chemical developed fresh weakness, declining more than 2 points. Bears Are Active Other points of interest were few, price movement in the lesser important issues bewildering traders. Most of the fluctuations represented evening up operations as an aftermath of the recent heavy selling. Bull traders placed their accounts in order, while bears were active in putting out fresh short lines after taking their profits Wednesday. This tendency, together with the disposition to await the steel tonnage figures, restricted trading and dealings fell under Wednesday’s 2,000,000-share pace. The figurese, which were expected to show a substantial decrease during the month, were regarded as particularly important at, this time in view of the 31 per cent of capacity operations in the steel mills during August. It was thought that they might indicate a turning point in steel demand.

Following is the explanation of Riplej's “Believe It or Not,” which appeared in Wednesday’s Times: The Check for sss,ooo,ooo—This historical check, the largest ever drawn prior to 1898, marked the emergence of Japan as a world power. It liquidated the SinoJapanese war of 1894, in which young Japan utterly defeated China, and in addition to a large war indemnity took Korea and Formosa from her. In keeping with the great occasion, profound formality was observed when a representative of China handed the check to a representative of Japan on May 7, 1898, in London. Friday—“A.

There were rains over the entire state during the first three days, with especiaifa!*s i n southwestern sections, which interfered materially with corn cutting, haying and other field operations.

M£in.y lociiiities m all parts of the state report 50 per cent or more of the crop as ripe, and there has been considerable cut“M, fo . r shock or silage in all sections, oarticniarly in the northern half. .The rains improved field tomatoes, but 'JL ei , ter sections some rotting reh& e „ d ' T oba cco is generally good and is cut and housed, although some trenching is reported as due to recent rains. e„^ he laree beach and apple harvest is in 0U,,.v, DroKress , ln *'^ le ma in central and southern growing areas.

WHEAT PRICES FIRM ON BULL NEWSREPORTS Government Crop Estimate Expected to Show Large Decrease. BY HAROLD E. RAINVILLE United Pres* Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, Sept. 10.—Wheat was firm as the Board of Trade opened today, but advances were the smallest of fractions. Steadiness at Liverpool was occasioned by the withdrawal of Danubian offers and a bullish French report. Otherwise there was not much action as the trade was awaiting the issuance of the government report. Corn was steady with wheat, traders also looking for the government estimate on the crop. Oats suffered from heavy selling and broke sharply despite the bullish Canadian report. At the opening wheat was % cent higher, corn was unchanged to % cent up and oats were unchanged to % cent lower. Provisions were firm. Liverpool Opens Higher Liverpool opened higher, as expected, and was up -la to % cent at mid-afternoon. A government report is due on wheat late today which is expected to show a reduction on the outturn of spring wheat, especially in the northwest, where conditions have been unfavorable all year. The Canadian government report last night was bearish, showing larger than expected, although still much below last year. A feature here of late has been the steady absorption of w’heat as offered in the pit apparently by the larger commission houses. However, there is no indication of a change in the prevailing dullness. September Interest Large The government report is expected t<J show a reduction from the August figures on corn owing to the heat, and will probably be in line with private estimates of last week. Interest hinges on the action of September. Some believe that the heavy selling of this month recently has been by a large local operator against hedges of the cash article. The open interest in September is still large. The weather remains very warm with temperatures of 108 recorded in the northwest Wednesday. The Canadian government report on oats showed the three western provinces with about half what was harvested last year. This bullish report was offset by the general indisposition of oats, with the other grains, to advance. By Times Special CHI CAG°.
