STEEL ECL|PSED
 ALL OTHER STOCKS
Public Interest Lacking on the Stock Exchange for
 Sometime Past

New York, July 31.-The stock markets lukewarm response today to the record breaking statement of the United States Steel corporation issued after the close of yesterdays session, was in itself con- sidered striking proof of the utter lack of public interest in securities.
 Steel eclipsed all other issues, furnish ing about 50 per cent of the days mod crate dealings, but those who expected bullish demonstration in that quarter were disappointed. The stock recorded an extreme advance of 17s points, retaining little more than half it's gain.
 Affiliated equipments rose to ? points, oils l F to on better Mexican conditions, and gas shares added 2 to 31S points to the previous days gain on a decision favoring Peoples Cas- although that stock later cancelled it's advance. There were desultory advances of to points in Distillers, Industrial Alco- flol, Sugars, Malting preferred, lnterna- tional Paper and Burns Brothers Coal. American Telephone rallied on relaxation of recent pressure, but Western Union declined another fraction to new low level for the current movement. $ Renewed weakness was displayed by General Motors and Sumatra Tobacco ana Lorillard Tobacco forfeited another F points, making a total of g points thus far this week.
 Rails and other standard stocks were listless and inclined to ease. t Bonds were firm, Liberty issues stiffen- ing after early heaviness in the four quarters. Total sales, par value, so,- s25, ,O0O

CORN SENT DOWN
 BY PROFIT TAKING
Oats, on the Other Hand. Take a Rise, as Does the
 Provision List

Chicago, July 51.-Month-end profit talk ing by longs more than wiped out in the corn market today an advance due largely to rapid falling off in arrivals at leading primary markets. The close wa s weak, A@5sc net lower, with August 1 153A@154. and September s1.547s01 5a. Oats finished hc off to 2Ac up. In pro- visions the outcome ranged from zoe decline to 65c advance.
 Heavy selling in which houses with eastern connections were prominent forced a sharp break in corn prices dur. ing the last hour of trading The closing out of many holdings had apparently been postponed to the furtherest limit in order to take advantage of any conges. ton in the wind-up of the July deliv- cry. No congestion developed, however. and the weakness that ensued formed a decided contrast to the strength which had characterized the market until to- day. Relative lightness of receipts. to- gether with prospects of further decrease in the movement from the country had much to do with shaping the temporary upward course of values.
 Something of bullish furry in July oats resulted from belated covering py shorts. August and September oats weakened with corn. Nearly all deliver ies of provisions reflected the strength of the hog market.
