mates of the Argentine export surplus
tended today to give the wheat market a
bearish aspect. There were also reports

seeded. Hedging sales at Minneapolis
acted likewise against the bulls. The
opening ranged from Il lower to lsah
higher and gradually underwent an ALI
around sag below last nights level.

sible for weak turn in corn. Buying
was only OF scattered sort. Prices
started unchanged to v Off and receded
still further. but later regained much of
the loss.
Most Of the oats crowd took to the
selling side. After the market. in sym
pathy with other grain, had suffered a
fair decline. however. commission house

of setback at the yards. First sales

Liquidation and Bear Trading Are

Fairly Strong.

NEW YORK. October "A firm un-

small. but as trading got under way the
leading stocks gradually advanced.

Liquidation and bear pressure made
their appearance when the general mar
ket had risen half point to "a point. A
break In New Haven to SiA and sales of
blocks Of 100000 and 100000 of the new
convertible bonds at 105ts, both securities
touching new low records. had n very
unsettling effect sentiment. Pennsyl-
vania also gave way TO low RECORD. Re-
actions elsewhere more than wiped out
the previous advances.
Stimulated Bear Aggressiveness.
Although prices rose at the outset today.
the morning movement as "A whole was
irregular
The action Of the list showed that
stocks We're in ample supply whenever
the market exhibited the capacity to
take them This fact dissipated the hope
ful feeling with which the days trading
began. and stimulated aggressiveness on
the part of the bears.
The plan for central government bank
AZ outlined by President Frank a. Van
derlip of the National City Bank of New
York. and the favorable reception said to
have been accorded 1t by members of the
Senate committee which has the matter In
hand, had good influence on the market
Ii was offset. however by the character
OF the latest adyices from Mexico
Buying Is Limited.
Ability to disiodge investment stocks
and the sentimental effect or conhrma-
ton of recent reports concerning
huge Pennsylvania railroad loan tended
to limit the buying of stocks largely
to the requirements Of the shorts.
The effect of the morning trading as
whole was nnimportant. and at noon
price changes We're small,
Bonds were irregular
Experimental efforts on the long side
were disappointing. as the demand did
not follow prices up, and the list
showed an inclination To fail back
whenever buying languished.
Prices ruled close To the low level of
the morning.
Buying on the theory that the reaction
had run It's course gave upward i'm
pulse TO the market late In the day.
Rock Island stocks and bonds were lift
