HIGH CALL RATE
ST|FLED TRADING.
Stocks Followed Recent Un-
even Course, Showing
... Tendency to Sag

New York. June 22.-Today's stock
market followed it's recent uneven
course without getting anywhere in
either direction until last hour when
the whole list sold of on IL per
cent call money. More interest was
supplied in the further strength Of Brit
ish exchange, with demand bills rising
to "a, the highest quotation In more
than two months. This strengthened
recent reports Of a heavy movement of
gold from England in the near future,
which, Il is estimated, will reach be-
tween 1000. 900 and $4,000, 900.
The 9 per cent renewal rate for call
loans supplied sufficient reasons for
the lifcless state of the stock market.
The practical suspension Of speculative
activities. in turn, supplied sufficient
reasons for the apparent sagging ten
dency OF the general list, more espe-
cially some Of the recent active specula-
tive favorites.
Prospects OF any important easing
in the money situation before the end
OF the month are not bright. While
the calling of loans yesterday was gen
orally regarded as n temporary condi-
ton, yet il is widely appreciated that
! the demands upon the banks for the
July l settlements, which reach ex-
! trcmely large proportions, will preclude
any material easing Of money conditions
until the preparations for these huge
| disbursements have been made. Then,
again. it takes time for these funds,
after being drawn from the banks, to
flow back into the regular channels OF
business again.
Wall street did not appear to be pay
ing much attention to the outlaw rali-
road strike which, it is generally be-
lieved. will be short lived. In all events
II was ignored in so far as the railroad
stocks were concerned.
1t has been many months since such
a stagnant opening has hecn expert
enced The lack Of interest perhaps
may be better appreciated from the
fact that some OF the usual leaders,
including United States Steel, were un-
quoted in the first ten minutes of the
morning session. Price movement was
ragged, with about an equal distribution
of gains and declines, but after the first
| half hour a dropping tendency developed
in nearly all parts Of the list. Pools
| tried to enlist public interest in the
chemical issues, but met with sCant
success. Although call loans held at
their initial quotation until noon, then
advanced to . per cent, it apparently
required little pressure TO effect further
recessions. Steels. equipments, oils.
motors and shippings. as well as spe
cialties of tobacco and textile groups,
fell back l TO 3 points Northern
Pacific and Reading led a moderate
reaction in the rails.
Losses were extended in the last hour
when call money duplicated yester-
days maximum rate of II per cent.
Steels, equipments and motors were
most vulnerable.

LISTLESS TRADING
IN LOCAL SHARES
Electric Storage Battery Stock
Allotment Proved to Be
Discounted

Except for the So decline in Electric
Storage Battery the local market con-
tinued of the same colorless character.
The drop in Electric Storage Battery
to 12l. or SO under the recent ton
price, indicated the formal announce
ment of the stock allotment had been
discounted, when the stock was carried
up points last week on the street re-
ports. The official statement and pro-
visions of the allotment differed little
from the street gossip. As expressed
yesterday, opinion seemed to prevail
that by reason Of the tight money mar
ket the stimulating influence of the in
ctdent would be considerably lessened.
The difficulty TO obtain sufficient funds
to take up the allotment took much Of
the cream out Of the pie.
Money was tighter in PHILADELPHIA IN
day than 1t has been at any time during
the stringent period. The banks were
expecting call from the Comptroller,
which influenced them 10 take every step
to strengthen the reserve position. Nat
ura!ly the stock market suffered. and
business was on a very limited scale.
Ihere was fresh liquidation In Penn
sylvania Railroad. causing that stock
TO fall back 10 3S1a. but most of the
loss was regained In the other local
stocks. trading was Of a perfunctory ma .
ture. Little significance, in consequence
could be attached TO the limited trans
actions and slight price changes.

LEAD
IN CURB TRADING
Dealings In North American
Pulp on Large Scale-Wright-
Martin Active

New York, June 22.--There. was
heavy trading In a number OF the indus
trial issues today, and that group at
tracted far more attention than was
shown in the oil issues.
The dealings In North American Pulp
were on an unusually large scale, over
10000 shares OF that stock being traded
in at g TO Z. a new high for recent
times, There was no special reason oo'
tainable for the movement.
Wright. Martin was In continued good
demand, following yesterdays activity
and strength. and firm tone was shown
in Indian Packing, partly because OF
the declaration Of a quarterly DIVIDEND
yesterday.
General Asphalt was the most active
Of the petroleum group, ranging from
1914 to 72R. Local interests were buy
crs on the declines. Mexican Panuco
was firm, with sales at II to 16A.
Simms was traded in at 17& to lS.
White Oil was firm at 20. Royal Dutch

New York, June 22.-July liQuida-
tion continues to be the feature of the
coffee market this morning. Pressure
from this source sent the list off 13
to IA points on the call.
Late in the morning July had sold
off to 1850 and September to 1910,
and while the present selling movement
seems to have originated with the
evening up Of July in anticipation of
possible notices on Friday, that posi-
tion is still holding n premium over fall
and winter months.
Bulls are disappointed over the con
tinued sagging tendency, which is be-
lieved 10 be due largely 10 the dull mar
ket for actual coffee and the dormant
condition Of speculation.
No weakness is so far in evidence in
the primary markets, Judging from the
recent firm offers from Brazil. and there
are some in the local trade who expect
q sharp advance here right after the end
of July liquidation. as It is pointed out
that Rrazilian shippers have sold over
n million bags Of coffee for late summer
and early fall shipment, and they have
yet to cover by purchases in the in
terror,

Commodity Markets
GRAIN MARKET

Chicago, June 22.-Under heavy Of
ferings the corn market was exceeding
ly weak today. Sentiment was bearish
and was intensified by more liberal re-
ceipts.
Free profit taking began at the outset
and was followed by liquidation by
tired longs Eastern operators played
an important part in the selling, which
came from all quarters through com
mission houses. About the only buy
ing in evidence was on resting orders
and room covering. More than 500 900
bushels of corn arrived here today.
Wheat and rye also were weaker,
with the cash and export demand less
active and offerings from the country
larger. 1t was said that exporters had
reduced their bids for wheat three cents
at Georgian bay ports.
Oats suffered sharp losses on liquida-
tion and short selling. caused by the
break in corn and decline of two to
three cents in the cash article. notwith-
standing the fact that receipts were
moderate. Bclatcd longs were free sell =
rs and many stop loss orders were
reached on the drop.
New buying power was lacking. The
crop and weather news was better and
larger receipts were forecast.

COTTON MARKET

New York. June 22.-The cotton
market showed increased weakness to-
day under more general and aggressive
selling.
Prices broke into new low ground
uncovcring stOD orders with October off
to 33.57, or 3 points net lower, while
July broke to SO cents, or 70 points
below last nights closing figures and
200 points under the high level Of
June /.
There were the usual vague rumors
regarding the attitude of southern bank
ers toward further advances on low
grade cotton, which had an unsettlipg
influence, Liquidation of July was ac-
companied by reports of cotton coming
here for delivery on contract.
Much of the selling in the late after
noon was for long account, partly Wall
street and the South, and was influenced
by nervousness over the money and
credit situation.
The market closed barely steady at a
decline Of 40 to 6S points.

FARMERS SHOULD SUPPORT
COUNTY FARM BURAEU

We are told that the Haakon
County Farm Bureau will put on
membership drive between the
22nd day of November and the. 1st
day of December This organiza-
tion is doing great work for the
farmers the country oveer and it
should receive the united support
of the farmers of this county. An
organization such as this can re-
suit in good when it has such sup
port. We hear farmers criticize
the work of the farm bureau, but
in every instance those who
either do not belong or who after
joining do not lend the support
that is required to make it sue
cess. More cooperation is needed
among farmers. The most effect
i've cooperation is trough the farm
bureau. Have the member who
solicits your membership explain
its work and you will be convinced.

DACOTAH PACKING COMPANY
RE-ORGANTZED.

Haakon county people attended
IN force the Reorganization meet
ing OF the Dacotah Packing Com
pany held in Rapid City a couple
of weeks ago. The meeting of the
stockholders of the company was
attended by more than 300 voting
stockholders, nearly all of whom
were optomistic for the future of
the company and a great many of
whom expressed their willingness
to put more money into it that the
work might go on. The largest
stockholders, many Of whom had
never been on the ground before
and had never looked over the
plant expressed their surprise and
indignation that such malicious
propaganda had been sent out in
regard to the packing company.
Especially was this sentiment voic-
ed after the report had been read,
showing the status of the company.
The following were placed in
nomination for directors. Wilson
Marsh, Rapid City; Tom Jones of
Midland; H. M. Butelson, Box FL

and Norris j. Hendrickson secre-
ary-treasurer, and choosing Mr.. L.
+. Aldirch to audit the company's
books. In the afternoon the direc-
tors visited the plant, the two
large stockholders especially exam
ining it very carefully. Here there
was turned over to the new direct
ors the cash and paper assets of
the company consisting of little
over $4,000 in bank deposits and
about 100000 in notes, after which

PHILIP HAS A HOSPITAL

Philip now has a first class hos
pital. Perhaps many Of our people
are not aware that 1t hasbeen In
operation for the past few weeks
and has taken care Of a number
OF patients so far. Several rooms
IN the c. E. McLane residence have
been fitted up and all the conven-
fences that contribute to the COM
fort care of the sick is offered. 1t
is in charge of Mrs. Lulu McGinn.
whose work as nurse is we'll known
to the people of this community.
Local physicians will attend the
patients and we are told that
it will be possible to take care of
most of the surgical operations
here at home, without the extra
expense and danger Of travelling
several hundred miles when
hours or even minutes count in
welfare of the patient. Philip
has been in need of such an insai-
tuition for several years and we
wish success to those who are be-
hind the venture. It certainly is
to the encouragement of
the people of Philip and the COM
surrounding.
