NEW YORK, March 21.-Prior to the
publication Of the weekly bank figures
the stock market was very dull, but
later showed some degree of anima-
ton. Opening prices reflected steadi-
ness of tone, and Metropolitan, Rock
Island and Mexican Central were
among the stocks that moved upwards.
The activity in Metropolitan suggested
continuance of the attack upon the
short interest. Rumors of a Rock ISL
and-MeXican Central combination were
not very generally credited. and the
last named stock was checked in its
advance by offerings aggregating TO-
900 shares.
The professional element INDUCED in
some profit taking in certain of the
standard issues, these including st.
Paul, Union Pacific and Atchison. Yes
terdays special selling of Sugar was
renewed. The demand for Pennsyl-
Yania was reported to have disclosed a
considerable short interest in that
stock. Southern Pacific, which was
lower in London. showed little change
in this market and was comparatively
neglected. Figures published today
show decrease in Southern Pacific
net earnings for January OF over $307,-
600. Louisville & Nashville was firm
and Canadian Pacific responded only
in slight measure to the keen de-
mand for that stock in London.
Coal Report Ignored.
The report of the coal strike COM
mission seemed to have been discount
ed, the hard cOalers exhibiting marked
fiImness from the outset. There wa.s
no trading of any consequence in the
soft coal stock in spite Of the an
nouncement of an advance of 10 per
cent per ton in tide water prices on
April l. The industrial group was
without feature. Gains were registered
by Tennessee Coal and Colorado Fuel
The closing was dull and steady. The
bank statement was well received, al
though the loss of cash was somewhat
in excess of most estimates.
Comparison with last week finds the
stock list generally higher. Evidently
the forced liquidation, due to the call
ing of loans, has exhausted itself.
The bond market during the weef
fiuctuated in sympathy with the course
of the stock market, but displayed a
better under current of Steadiness

How the Author Obtained Business for
ArkansaW Traveller


Several years ago. when Opie Read was
editor of the Arakansaw Traveller, he and
Mr.. Benham, the business manager Of the
paper. were passing the salesroOm Of a
Benham expressed regret that he had
never been able to induce the concern
to advertise. in the Traveller.
Hold on said Read, stopping to look
through the window at the goodly number
of customers inside. Point out the man
ager TO me and I'll get an 'ad' for YOU
Benham indicated the man. and said it
was Of no use: I've argued with him for
months. but he won't come in"
Ople, leaving his partner outside. en-
tered the place. and, approaching the
ld-headed man Of the merits Of the
medicine. took off his hat, shook out his
long; luXuriant hair, and said:
Excuse me, sir. but 1 couldn't resist
the temptation to come in and thank
you for what you have done for me-"
The manager. having never seen Read
before, naturally looked at him inqur-
T'0f course" said Read. "you don't
recognize me. You never saw me but
once, and then I hadn't a hair on nay
mead. But, sir. l shall always hold YOU
in grateful memory -Four months ago.
when L came in here as bald as a door
knob, you induced me to buy two bottIes

He ran his fingers through his ricn,
black locks. seized the manager by the
hand, and. in a voice trembling with ap-
parent depth of feeling, added:
Pardon me for interrupting your con-
Versation, but l just couldn't pass with
out coming in TO say God bless you. sir.
Good day"
In an hour Read and Bcniam returned
and finding. the manager disengaged, ap-
preached him.

GRAIN SHOWS WEAKNESS
DULLNESS PREVAILS, WITH LOW
ER PRICES ALL AROUND
Bearish Sentiment in Wheat, Quota
tions Near the Bottom = Improved
Weather Conditions and Sharp Break
in Wheat Affect Corn.

CHICAGO, March 81. - The grain
markets were decidedly weak today
and lower prices were realized, May
wheat closing l 1-401 3-Sc lower, May
corn off 7-S@1c, and oats down 5-Sc.
PROVISIONS closed easy with the May
products from sc to u 1-2c lower
Dullness prevailed in the wheat pit
ana the sentiment was extremely bear
lsh, the price of the May delivery de-
cHnlng at one time nearly l 1-2c and
closing near the bottom. May was off
lac to 1-403-8c at the start, opening
at 73 3-4@73 7-Sc to 73 7-Sc, under
the influence of favorable weather, the
predicted cold wave not having ma
terlalized to the extent of doing any
damage to the growing crop. A good
deal of wheat bought yesterday under
the expectations of colder weather
consequently was offered for sale at
the opening, but the demand was linn
tied, and as result the market rapidly
declined. Considerable long wheat
came out on the decline, which added
TO the weakness, and the closing hour
! of the session was exceedingly weak.
Final figures on May were 1-401 3-Sc
lower at y 3-4M72 7-Sc, after the price
had touched - 3-4c.
CIearanceS of wheat and flour were
equal to 254 900 bu. Primary receipts
| were $4,000 bu, against 447 300 bu
year ago. Minneapolis and Duluth re-
ported receipts of 179 cars, which, with
local receipts of IS cars-1 of contract
grade-made the total receipts for the
| three points of 19I cars, against 371
cars last week, and 2SS cars year ago.
Wheat Break influences Corn.
Corn was weak, influenced by the
improved weather conditions and the
sharp break in wheat. Local traders
who had carried long lines over night
were anxious sellers and there was also
/ considerable commission house selling
on outside account. The volume Of
business was light The close was at
AZ 7-8c, loss of 7-8@1c, after selling
between 43 5Sc and A 1-4c. Local
receipts were light at 146 cars, of
which We're of contract grade.
There was only a light trade in oats
and no features of Importance develop
ed. The local sentiment was bullish
| but the severe decline in wheat pre-
vented any buying of any account. and
lower prices ruled. The close was weak,
with May 5-8c lower at 80 3-4c, after
ranging between 33 5-8c and "a 1-4c
Local receipts were 257 cars.
Provisions were strong early on
smaller receipts of hogs and an ad-
vance OF from &c to 1Oc in prices at the
yards. but selling by commission
houses caused a reaction. Later in the
day firmer feeling was manifested
on good foreign demand for lard but
the weakness in the grain pits had a
depressing influence and the close was
easy with May pork off sc, closing at
$3.50 May lard was down II 1-2c at
$lO.O2 IL, while ribs were 1O012 1-2c
lower at 1882 1-2.
Estimated receipts for Monday:
Wheat, 40 cars; corn, 1876 cars; oats,
235 cars; hogs, 3O,OOO head.
