Average Stock Prices

WALZER United Press Financial Editor NEW YORK Oct. 30.—Railroad shares again led the stock market into higher ground today. At the close prices were fractions to nearly 6 points above the previous close. The immediate cause of the buying in railroad shares was an official statement by New York Central that it was discussing a voluntary wage reduction with its employes. This cut, which would amount to 10 per cent, was to be for a period of one year. According to preliminary calculations the Dow-Jones & Cos. industrial average stood at 103.96 y up 330 points; rail average 52.40, up 2:54 points, and the utility average at 40.43, up .93 point. Sales totaled 1,600,000 shares, compared with 1,300,000 shares Thursday. Central immediately responded with a rise of 4 points from its low and more than 3 points from the previous close. Atchison spurted nearly 6 points. Nickel Plate 4. Delaware & Hudson 3 1 j and Union Pacific 5 V Industrial Leaders Gain Steel common came close to 67. which would be a net gain of 2 points from the previous close. Other industrial leaders followed. Gains of 1 to 2 points were noted in American Can, Bethlehem .Steel, Woolworth, Case, United States Industrial Alcohol, Westinghouse Electric, Du Pont and Allied Chemical. Paramount was a feature throughout the day in the amusement group on merger rumors. Lorillard profited by preliminary estimates of increased earnings. United States Industrial Alcohol continued its advance on prospect of higher alcohol prices. General Motors was up nearly a point in the motors. Electric Power and Light dropped sharply at midday on news the company was to issue rights for purchase of additional stocks. That sent the whole market down temporarily, but prices quickly steadied and resumed the rise. Electric Power and Light Corporation has arranged to raise by Dec. 4 in excess of $21,090,000 through sale of approximately 1,440,000 shares of common stock at sls. a share. Rights to purchase the stock were traded on the Produce Exchange, where they sold around $1.25. . Grain Rise Helps List Along with the rise in railroad shares,, a major factor in the advance in the general list was another sharp spurt in grain prices at Chicago and other centers. Wheat closed up l 7 is to 2 cents a bushel; corn % to Its cents; oats •% to •% cent and rye 2% to 2' 2 cents. Word that Russia had canceled some wheat contracts was the immediate reason for the rise in grains. In addition the Street had a batch of overnight news of deep import on the bullish side. President Eugene G. Grace of Bethlehem in announcing the declaration of the regular common dividend out of surplus said there is unquestionably a better sentiment in the steel industry. President James A. Farrell of United States Steel told of improvement in his company which he said was soon to open an additional plant, thus increasing the number of employed.

In the Stock Market

(Bv Thomson & McKinnon) NEW YORK, Oct. 30.—The upward trend of stocks was maintained today, largely with the aid of more encouraging commercial news and higher commodity markets. The prospect of expanding steel activity, more cheerful news from Detroit regarding the automobile industry and a brighter general industrial outlook, disclosed by a comprehensive survey of manufacturing conditions helped to lessen the feeling of pessimism. Contributing to the better financial sentiment was the strong tone of the bond market, especially with the second grade rails. The principal factor in this development was the reporteed confirmation that the railroad managements were actually negotiating with employes to secure a voluntary wage reduction of 10 per cent for a one year period. While perhaps the headway which stocks are making is somewhat disappointing, it must be kept in mind that the market the past week has contended with some unpleasant earnings reports and dividend actions. That sort of news influences less disposition to discount the future very far. However, the market will lose this feeling of uncertainty if our commercial picture improves, as signs now suggest.

In the Cotton Markets

IBv Thomson & McKinnon) NEW YORK. Oct. 30.—Throughout the morning there was nothing in the cotton market to interest the general public. The range was narrow and the time was steady. The talk in trading circles was all about the remarkable price that cotton is bringing in the south, as compared with the price in the contract markets. It has been popular to say that the shippers have had great difficulty in filling their October commitments and there may be a certain amount of truth in this explanation, but we doubt if it covers the whole case. We think that there are many investors, particularly in the south itself. who are buying spot cotton and holding it because they know it can not be produced another year at the price they are paying. Should present prices for spot cotton hold over into November, we think an adjustment must be made between southern markets and the contracts markets consisting of a higher price on the exchanges.

Following is the explanation of Ripley's "Believe It or Not” which appeared in Friday's Times: The College President Who Never Went to College —Walter Williaims, now president of the University of Missouri, and founder and dean of its school of journalism—which is the first in the world—never went to college in his life. Dean Williams was 15 when he quit school to take a job as printer’s devil on the Boonville (Mo.) Topic at 70 cents a week. In 1908 he persuaded the university to let him set up an experimental school, and he has been its dean ever since. Monday—“A Circus Man for Thirty-five Years and Never Saw a Circus.”

GRAIN FUTURES SCORE SHARP GAINSAT CLOSE Cash, Seaboard Buying Are Behind Upturn Late in Day. BY HAROLD E. RAINVILLE United Tress Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, Oct. 30.—Cash and seaboard interests sought wheat in a big way toward the close and ran May wheat to anew high on the crop on the Board of Trade today, getting above 64 cents per bushel. The market had a strong undertone throughout the session and closed around 2 cents higher. Strong bullish news from Europe attracted attention. Corn followed wheat for good gains. Oats recovered and advanced with the major cereals. Close I'p 2’, Cents At the close wheat was 1% cents to 2% cents higher, corn was •*% cent to 1 cent higher and oats % cent to s s cent higher. Provisions were steady, with October lard up 50 points on short covering. Continuing to advance during the afternoon, Liverpool closed 1% to 1% cents higher. Reports were received from private sources that Russia was trying to cancel contracts on good quality stock. Cash interests took May during the morning. Cash prices were 1 to 2 cents higher. Receipts were 51 cars.

Com Tone Strong The wet weather over the belt and increased commission house buying gave corn a strong tone from the start and at mid-session prices held % to % cents higher. The advance was checked by selling against offers. Receipts were only moderately large. Cash prices were unchanged to 1 cent higher. Receipts were 164 cars. Oats declined % cent early and failed to recover by mid-morning, trade was very dull and without feature. Cash prices were unchanged to % cent 'higher. Receipts were 37 cars.
