NEW YORK, March 5.-The waver-
ing price movement in today's stock
market reflected the lack of conviction
over the speculative outlook. The news
from Philadelphia was largely respon-
sible for this. The extent of the re-
sponse for call of a general strike
there, in itself threatened an amount
of disturbance of profitable activities
sufficient to command the attention of
those interested In companies shares.
The bearing OF the situation on the
general situation of labor adjustment,
as presented by the numerous demands
upon the railroads now under consid-
Grafton, was deemed important and
calculated to arouse anxiety.
There was a notable absence of the
attempts which were made at the end
of last week to arouse apprehension
over a possible decision to be handed
down on that day by the supreme
court in the American tobacco case.
The rise in American Tobacco shares
in the outside market this week has
impressed speculative sentiment on
this subject more than the more direct
contemplation of the government suit
against the company. The movement
in the tobacco shares, in fact, was
made an important consideration in
the support OF the general stock mar
ket.
l1e support dCCOIuCu stoChS dSSO-
ciated with the name Of j. Pierpont
Morgan & Co. stood out rather prom
inently in the rise at the end of the
session. The large participation of
that firm in the bond market is fea-
ture The desire of those engaged in
bond fiotation to keep the stock market
in a good absorptive state for the SYM
pathetic benefit of the bond market is
usual symptom of periods of large
bond offerings. The manner in which
the market shall take the bonds now
coming out is a subject of interest. In
formation bearing on the matter was
not given out today.
The market did not have to digest
the bond statement. since 1t was not
published until the close. \
The loss of over $10,Q000O0 in the
actual cash holdings of the banks COM
pared with the preliminary estimates
of a gain of several millions. AS loans
expanded at the same time the effect
on the surplus was intensified, bring

managers of Pennsylvania, West Vir-

The party line came in for consider
alton and when the box was opened
one subscriber asked what means

Another complained bitterly of long

The greatest poser however, was

CHICAGO March 6-Crop damage news. was
poured into the market with considerable ef-
fleet early, forcing covering by smaller traders,
who were fearful of over Sunday developments,
but the wheat market closed weak and lower
than yesterday. Conservative and strong in
terests were the chief sellers on the advances.
The market had support after the small
trade had been filled up. Cash demand was
poor. Crop news was mainly warming up OF
previous reports, especially eastern Kansas
and western Missouri, and contained few re-
ports Of real news. The market broke badly
in the last half hour, May leading. Other
grains followed. The entire list closed weak
and sentiment at the close was bearish as
1t bullish at the height of the crop dam
claims The break was hastened by reports
from Kansas City from very reliable sources
claiming that the damage reports were grossly
exaggerated, and this caught the crowd either
lsng or willing to sell short. so that offerings
quickly swelled TO proportions that broke the
market.
Corn showed quite stiff and sudden ad-
vance following a rather easy opening, smaller
short being hurried along by larger shorts,
who resold on the bulge The covering by
smaller ones was on the belief that the market
had been pretty we'll lquidated during the last
week, that bad roads in the country would
decrease the movement next week and the
east would increase purchases on strength
following the recent long declines in cash
corn. Pressure on the swells was heavy and
the market backed on to about lowest prices
for the day.
Oats followed the other grains higher early
and giving way again after the smaller shorts
and weekend evening had been finished.
Provisions lower all around. Recent leading
longs We're quite active on the selling side
and the market WAS not large enough TO
amount to anything except lower level Of

PONY POOR WITNESS FOR
MASTER IN DAMAGE SUIT

CHICAGO. March 5.--"Harry,' 9
year old shetland pony, appeared be-
fore Municipal Judge Cleland yester-
day as a witness for its owner. pro-
prietor of a dog and pony circus, who
is being sued for $1,000 damages by a
former employe, who alleges that the
pony kicked and injured him.
Tn eanimal was taken into the court
room to show the jnury that 1t was
gentle and would not kick unless an
noyed.
The pony remained gentle and quiet
in the elevator, until 1t started upward,
and then ii required the combined ef-
forts of half a dozen men to keep the
animal from kicking the sides out OF
the ear.
