STOCK SHARES SELL DOWN IN LIGHT TRADING • Lack of Demand, Uncertain Foreign News Reports Are Factors.

Average Stock Prices

Average of thirty industrials for Saturday 102.28 off 21. Average of twenty rails 55.94 off .70. Average of twenty utilities 40.56. off .22. Average of forty bonds 85.91. up .39. BY ELMER C. WALZER United Press Financial Editor NEVS* YORK, Oct. 19.—Uncertainties of the foreign situation held the stock market to light volume comparable with that of 1926. and prices reached 1 to 4 points. Rallying tendencies appeared shortly before noon but volume shrunk further and around noon the list was selling off again. No particular pressure was exerted anywhere. The list rather appeared to be suffering from lack of demand. Uncertainty over the Manchurian problem had a tendency to keep many traders out of the market. Call money renewed at 2% per cent, but the tone was easier and federal funds also eased in tone, a factor which slowed up selling in United States government issues. Commodities were steady to firm, cotton barely changed and wheat up fractionally at new highs since August 28. The weekly review of the magazine Steel indicated operations of the steel industry down a point at 28 per cent of capacity, a factor that brought selling into United States Steel common stock. The latter touched 67%, off 1% points, and rallied slightly. Bethlehem Steel preferred dropped nearly 5 points to 82, and the common also was heavily sold. The Street was circulating a story that the common dividend of $2 annually was in danger and some went so far as to express belief the preferred might be pared down. Small losses were noted in all the leading industrials. In the absence of favorable news the railroad shares were sold at concessions ranging to more than a point. Utilities drppped fractions to a point.

WHEAT MOVES UP ON LAGK OF BEAR PRESSURE * Futures Advance Despite Liverpool’s Failure to Sell Higher. BY lIAROLH E. RAINVILLE United Press Staff Corresnondent CHICAGO, Oct. 19.—Wheat scored a fractional advance on the Board of Trade at the opening today, despite the failure of Liverpool to fully respond to the advance here Saturday. The English market had a firm undertone, but was quiet. The absence of selling pressure at the start was the chief factor. Corn held firm with wheat, but prices moved slowly. Oats was slightly irregular, but held close to the close of the previous finish. Wheat Opens Higher At the opening wheat was ’j to % cent higher, com was unchanged to % cent up and oats was Vs cent lower to ‘.s cent higher. Provisions were slow and about steady. Liverpool opened higher and held steady at a ’x to %-cent advance most of the day. Buenos Aires started lower, but recovered for a fractional advance later. Liverpool was buying Russian wheat last week and the latter country exported 3.408.000 bushels of wheat, this being rather surprising in view of reports from abroad. Advance Is Held Practically all the two-week advance in wheat prices, has been maintained and wheat is about 7 cents above the low point of the season. The southwest is expected to increase shipments owing to the sharp upturn. Corn has lagged during the period, but prices have lifted somewhat owing to the advance in wheat. The weather was clear over the weekend and the forecast is lor fair and somewhat warmer. Oats follows the action of the major grains. The cash market shows good strength most of the time.
