STOCK MARKET
CLOSE IS WEAK
Shares Sell Down After
Wholesale Covering of
Shorts
by BROADAN WALL.

New York. March 2L-Aided by the
weakened technical position of the
market which resulted from whole
sale covering by shorts last week,
professional traders today attacked
the general list by offering stocks in
liberal volume throughout the session
Except for the unfavorable news from
abroad there were no new develop
ments to warrant the selling move
ment which appeared in the late trad
ing.
Stocks opened lower. but before the
end of the second hour developed
strength and showed net fractional
gains In the late afternoon profess
sional floor traders began selling the
general list short and their offerings
resulted in weakness which continued
up to the close.
Reduction of the Anaconda Copper
Mining Company dividends from a
Sc to 81 annual basis was regarded
with some surprise, although the ac-
ton OF the board in making a small
Ter distribution to shareholders SEEM
ed logical, in view OF the recent poor
business done by the copper COM
panies.
One bright spot was the announce
for copper metal. Large copper
companies today reported substan-
tial sales at around Is cents a
pound.
The fact that the New York Stock
Exchange will be closed tomorrow
also had an influence in inducing
professional traders to take profits
Notwithstanding the heavi n e $ S
which DreVailed when the mark Of
closed. the financial district contin-
ues optimistic with regard to the
future trend of stocks.
Oil shares were offered in liberal
volume and played a prominent part
in the downward movement. MeXi-
can petroleum at one time showed
a loss of nearly four points. Texas
Company stock lost about two
points, but Sinclair Oil rose nearly
one point and closed within a frac-
ton OF the best quotation.

CHICAGO GRAIN.
By JOS. F. PRTTCHARD,

Chicago, March 2i.-European demand for
corn is urgent, and wherever available it was
bought freely for export total Of 100 900
bushels for export and 3.oCo bushels Of domes-
tic account at Chicago was bought today. These
purchases caused the market to advance to
new high levels Resting spots showed advance.
ot Zc for March; ihc to INC for May, and
&c for July. September was unchanged to Hc
luver.
Some houses have been advising customers To
avoid the buying side on advances and traders
who gave this advice attention sold freely, e1-
pcnencing losses in consequence. Corn Is un-
likely to continue upward indefinitely. but will
sdvatce until stocks are available in various
positions, including. visible as we'll a. Chicago
supplies.
Purchasers Of Argentine corn, who expected
II TO be available before this time. will be
compelled TO wait an indefinite period before
it reaches the United States or England
Oats, while still moderately active. huctuated
considerably and some price changes were rather
broad. Strength OF com was probably the
leading influence. Many shorts covered and
selling by longs was small. Statistics were
bullish, Including a decrease of lfos. 900 bushels
in the visible supply.

which the subject can be brought to
the attention of the court.
Undoubtedly the lower court which
is to take up the question speedily
will decide in support of the legality
of the legislation by means OF which
the constitutional amendment was Sc
cured. That. however, will be almost
a perfunctory decision. so made In or
der that the question can be carried
Immediately, first to the Court of APP
peals, and then to the Supreme Court
This litigation, which at first was
thought to be of little account, may
prove to be one of the most important
issues ever brought to the attention
OF the Supreme Court. 1t may COM
pare with some of the questions
brought before the court which were
occasioned by the civil war and the
reconstruction period which followed
It.
One authority speaking Of II this
morning said that II may be compared
with the traditional Dartmouth Col
lege case-in which Daniel Webster
appeared as one of the counsel-which
permanently established the inviola-
bllity OF contracts.
The moral question does not enter
into this litigation excepting perhaps
the claim that the legislation which
preceded the adoption of the amend
ment vitiates the principle of per-
sonal liberty which the Constitution
has vindicated.
The legal issues will refer to the
manner in which the legislation was
adopted and it will be claimed that
it was unconstitutional, and IL uncon-
stitutional, then il nullifies the action
OF the States which have ratified the
prohibition amendment.
