NEW 1ORk, May Zo.-t WdH olTeelJ Higher quotations at the outset of today's active and diversified dealings met with extensive realizing for pro- fits and renewed opposition by the shorts. In consequence few, if any of the more important gains in indus trials and specialties were retained, some of those issues finishing at mod crate net losses.
 The approaching holiday induced closing out of long lines by traders. United States Steel once more set the pace. both on the rise and decline, ad- vancing to the new record of 135, from which it reacted to 1922 and closed at 1924, a net loss of 3s points. Equal reversals were registered by less dis tinctive issues.
 Much of the underlying strength was furnished by rails. Important issues of that description were in demand at extreme advances of l to 31s points. Improvement in rails coincided with the publication of a number of April returns. Southern Pacific made an es- pecially good showing, gaining almost S1, ,500,000 in net.
 Metals were under pressure most of the time Utah making an abrupt de- cline of three points, others of that class falling 1 to 2. Total sales 1880, = 0O0 shares.

 CHICAGO GRAIN
 CHICAGO, May 2S.-Likelihood of a record breaking big corn yield this season had much to do with sharp de- clines in prices of corn and wheat to- day The market closed heavy for wheat with values l to 6 cents net lower at s2.05 for July and s14S for September. Corn finished k to 5% down. oats unchanged to 50S higher and provisions off to 25 cents.
 General rushes to sell on the part of both lonGs and shorts brought down corn prices in a hurry The greatest smash of values was in the July de- liverv. which made an extreme descent of "A. Aggressiveness on the bear side was accompanied by widespread assertions that with a continuance of existing favorable weather conditions the 1917 crop would surpass all previ- oUs known totals.
 Wheat showed a little more activity than has been the rule of late, but the amount was puny alongside the huge volume of business in corn. British advices reported less apprehension re- garding supplies. In addition there was decided optimism here concerning the outlook for the growing domestic crop.
 Indications pointed to good export demand for oats.
 Options on July delivery also seemed to be in request for European account. On the other hand crop reports were excellent. Provisions fell with corn and hogs.

 MESA, May 29.-C. l.. Pierson, teach CT of the commercial department of the Mesa High school, whe recently was arrested on the charge of giving checks without funds in his bank, has left for California, after having the charges withdrawn upon settlement of the ac- counts.
 Pierson had been re-employed for an- other year and on the day before he left for summer vacation on the coast, withdrew his balance from the bank and 'carelessly," so he states, drew the check complained of, receiving money from merchants, in return. He was ar rested en route and brought back to Mesa. He claimed that he has been sup porting a sister and nephew, which took most of his salary, but that he had re- sources at his home and expected to have money here in few days
