Curb Market

Note.-The Tribune assumes no re-
thenticity OF curb market quotations.
The New York Curb Association pro-
duces no official quotation list. Quo
tations are reported by individuals
over whom the association has no con-
troll. Any one can make prices on the
curb and get them printed in the daily
lists, even without the formality of
trst submitting the shares TO the Curb
Association for its approval. Some
securities are regularly listed-that is,
they are approved for trading by the
Curb Association, and ii is required
that information concerning them will
be filed from time TO time with the
secretary. Such information is
open to public inspection. Some
other securities, like the Standard
Oil subsidiaries. are admitted TO
quotation" without a regular listing
A greater number are unlisted. No
one has any authority over them. IN
listed stocks are marked thus: co.
They are principally mining stocks,
and most of them are prospects," but
there is nothing to distinguish pros
poets" from operating properties" IN
the unlisted group. There are few
listed mining stocks. and among these
prospects arc distinguished By the
sbbreviation "a pros" after the
name. With this notice duly given,
The Tribune will hereafter print all
quotations without further response
bility.
Transactions and prices yesterday
were reported as follows:

Sust en- anCe
Cereals

Wheat News from Washington and
the Balkans regulated wheat markets
Yesterday TO the virtual exclusion OF
everything else. At first the news en-
couraged confidence in higher prices
and there was an advance during the
early trading of 3 or 4 cents. Later
the strike talk was not so encouraging,
and there was an abrupt reversal.
Prices fell roundly or s cents from
the early high points, and finished =
10 %, cents under Thursdays close
Although a more hopeful feeling re-
g1rding a settlement or postponemenJ
OF the strike was generally mentioned
as the chief factor on the early up
turn, credit must also be given 70 the
strength in foreign markets. LlverpooI
showed advances of 2 20 pence on
spot wheat and shillings on cargoes
to arrive, while English country mar
kets were pence higher. Foreign sd-
vices embraced further complaints re-
Pardine the weather in Great Britain,
France and Italy. Argentine's SHIP
meuts for the week were about as eX-
pected. 100000 bushels, but more than
half went to non-European countries
and only $4,000 bushels TO English
ports. The sharp drop in the after
noon was said TO have been precipi-
tated chiefly by the throwing over
of a large line by leading Western
operator, which caused selling rush
among the smaller holders General sell
ing was quickened Chiefly by further
and more emphatic adyices regarding
DEVELOPMENTS in Southeastern Europe.
Needless to say, all this talk proved de-
cidedly pleasing to those who had been
nredicting an early cessation Of hos,
tilities. At any rate, il strengthened
their belief that the Dardanelles will
soon be opened. The deliveries on Sep
tcmber contracts in Chicago were about
ss eypected. 4.250.000 bushels, al
though only 100000 bushels were
ronor.ed early.

LINER CH|YO MARU
HAS BEEN FLOATED

San Francisco, April Having
received news that all passengers on
the liner Chiyo Maru were safely
landed at Hong Kong, after the
steamer ran aground on LENA is
lands, local offices Of the Toyo Kisen
Kaisha today anxiously awaited word
as to the damage done to the vessel.
The Chiyo was reported to have been
fioated, and she will probably be tow
ed to Hong Kong, where an examina-
tion can be made.
According to messages received at
the local Offices, British destroyer
assisted in removing passengers.
There was no panic.
One message here said that the re-
turn sailing of the Chiyo Maru would
be delayed" This gave rise to a
belief that she was not seriously dam
aged.
IL 1t is not practical to bring her In
to Hong Kong at once, her baggage
and cargo will probably have to be
removed by lighters.
