CHICAGO, June 12. - Leaders participating in the aII-night con- ferences said at 2 d. m., on com ing out of them, that it had not been possible to came to any agreement and that the convention would resume in the morning at the point where it left off at the end of the fourth ballet.
 The leaders were in accord that Wood and Lowden must further try out their strength before ef- forts to concentrate on dark horse could be made. One diff culty has been the refusal of mi nor candidates to sacrifice their delegates until they receive as-
 surarces that their delegates will furnish the necessary major ity to some candidate who can win.

HITCHCOCK CONFIDENT

At one o'clock this morning after a conference with state leaders. Frank Hitchcock. field manager Of the Wood forces. said:
 "The Wood delegates will stick. On the first ballots today we will have 9 decided gain I am greatly encouraged. I have beer informed about the conferences of leaders oD- posed to Wood and that they have been trying to center upon dark horse candidate"
 After Harding Vote
 A large majority of the Harding votes cast today are pledged tO Wood as secCnd choice. Some members Of the delegation said tonight that if Senator Harding released them they would feel free to go where they pleased; if their votes would be of assistance to the Wood candidacy. Lowden managers were calculating that if they succeeded in getting ac- sessions from Harding delegations from Massachusetts. Indiana. New York and Texas. they would be with- in striking distance of majority to- LmorrOw. The Lowden people were predicting that the Wood forces struck high water mark today but the Wood people replied positively that they would advance further on the resumption of the balloting. The New York delegation will caucus to- morrow half an hour before the re- sumption of the convention.
 Johnson leader said offers or del egates were coming to them from vir- tually every other camp. but as none of them looked to Johnson for first place the senator was standing pal and would hold his delegates to- gether. If convinced. they said. that he could not win. he might make an alignment
 Johnson Holds Out
 It was declared positively. how ever. that under no circumstances would Johnson make a deal with ci- ther Wood or Lowden.
 The statement of Senator Rorah in regard to his attitude toward Wool and Lowden can be taken practically verbatim as the attitude of Johnson one of his advisers said.
 Johnson followers declared he
 could make a deal any time with
 virtually any of the factions
 which would assure him the
 vice presidential nomination. At
 midnight tonight a new proposal
 1alA
 and the Pennsylvania votes was
 brought to Senator Johnson and
 it was said that out Of if might
 come something concrete.
 While the Pennsylvania delegation was caucusing and agreeing to stand by Governor Sproule as long as they feel he has a chance of being nomi- mated, the Lowden forces were count ing on gains from that quarter on a break up which they expected tomor- row and both he and Wood were es- possible gains from New York Both the Wood and Lowden forces had their eyes turned toward the Michigan block which has been standing solidly for Johnson. Low den headquarters was also counting on a gain from Wisconsin if the 22 LaFollette votes should break mp.
 Both Lowden and Wood forces were claiming gains from a break they predicted in the Michigan block.
 Conferences were continually going Dn at Wood headquarters and also at Lowden's rooms at his hotel

UTILITIES LOCAL
HEAVY FEATURES
Rapid Transit MIDDLE Offers
Big Problem for
Solution

Dealings in the local stocks in to-
days closing market were of small di-
mensions. with irregular price move
ments. The trading was extremely mar :
row and without significance. The
utility group continued to display a
heavy tone and fell back to the low
prices of the week on very limited of
ferings. Philadelphia Rapid Transit
yielded to 1917 ; Union Traction to q ;
Philadelphia Electric to 21B, aud
United Gas Improvement to 40.
The thinness of the market on either
the buying or selling side was re
fected in 81 decline in Electric Storage
Battery to 11S and the 81 advance in
the warrants to 10. Both on very small
transactions. Pennsylvania Railroad
dipped to 3912, closing at 393s, and
Lebigh Valley dropped back y to 10.
American Gas changed hands in small
amounts at 36, as did Insurance Co. of
North America at -.
The monOtonous stagnation of the To-
cal market was abruptly broken this
week by the rapid and rather startling
developments attended the muddled
Rapid Transit situation. From a mar
ket viewpoint the result was depress-
ing, in that securities of the company
and those of the underlying properties
touched new low records, in several the
lowest in their history.
While the immediate outcome of the
hare-up is still somewhat beclouded,
several conditions have become quite
clearly defined by the events of the
week. One of these was the action
of the board which may be accepted as
tantamount to the passing OF the divi-
dend on Rapid Transit stock.
The other outstanding development.
which was not believed at first. was
the break between the so.called bank
ing interests and Mr.. Mitten. Ihere
was widespread impression that some
sort of bluff was behind this apparent
rupture and big stage play was being
made for purpose. fortuhately or
unfortunately, the break was in ear
nest, and leaves unanswered the inter
esting question as to the undisclosed
identity of the financiers who VIII sup
plant the Drcxel interests in plotting
the Rapid Transit property over the
very dangerous financial shoals.
Sensibly local financial and market
interests have adopted an attitude Of
rpticence and reserved decision as to
future prospects of the company until
the strategy of the contcsting interests
is more clearly defined. In the mean
time. as is always the experience when
giants get to fighting the nnohending
Shareholders come out the snort END OF
the horn. Rapid Transit, like many
Thar IN mt;Iity concerns, is suffering from
tbn dns of the past. The situation Is
not moi altogether hopeless, but it is un-
fortunate that many did not enjoy the
same perspective as certain large in
terests who, there are many reasons
now for believing, have, like rats de-
serting a sinking ship, been quietly
slipping out and disposipg of their hold
ings because of the knowledge there
.wonld be just such a climax as was wit
messed this week.

New York, July 24.-The cotton
market opened steady at 10 points de-
cline to 10 points advance, the Nav
position showing the Improvement.
Trade interests were the buyers, the
price of around 29c evidently looking
attractive to them. Earlier deliveries
reflected favorable weather and forc-
casts, the gloomy European political
situation and the poor showing of the
leading industries. Buying was large.
ly to cover shorts for over the week end
and sentiment for the moment appeared
to be quite generally against the mar

Attention was called to declines in
the southwestern markets, which arc
beginning to feel the weight of the new
crop cotton. Houston yesterday do

GRAIN MARKET

Chicago, July 24.-Nearly all brokers
had selling orders for wheat this morn
ing and prices sustained further losses,
On the setback, there was buying by n
cash concern. Trade was not activc,
Early weather reports from the spring
wheat belt were favorable and less an.
prehension was felt over the rust situa
ton.
The demand for export also was light
although there was a rally in foreign
exchange, which might stimulate a de-
mand. The receipts here today were
II cars.
December opened cent lower, at
S2.57, and declined to $2.55A, then
rallied v cent. March started at a
decline OF l cent at $2.61 u and dropped
to $2.592.
Corn was weaker owing to bearlsh
crop estimates and favorable weather.
Little buying power was in evidence.
The principal selling was by an eastern
wire concern. Early estimates were for
$50 cars.
The first price on July was S1.53A
bid, against $685. at the close yes
tcrday. September started at S1.53l6

yesterday, and sagged to $I.52h, De.
cember opened at $1.3Sh to S1.3s,
against 81 .39h at the close yesterday,
and later sold at $1.375s.
There was fairly general selling of

market was easier. An important cash
concern also sold. Buying was scat
tered. Early carlot estimates were for

July started q cent lower at 9olbc,
