FINANCIAL AND
MARKET news
New YORK CHANGE
GENERALLY HEAVY

New York. Jan. &-The stock market
today opened with a moderate show OF
strength. some buying and short COW
ering evidently being prompted by the
encouraging observations of Governor
Harding OF tho federal reserve board.
Trading had not proceeded beyond the
initial stage, however, before fresh
weakness developed in the shippings,
steele and oils, with Atlantic Gulf,
Crucible Steel and Mexican Petroleum
as the chief objectives. Declines of
to points in these issues soon had
their effect on the general list where
other popular shares forfeited l to
points. Nominal rallies cnsued under
cover OF sharp rise in General AS
phalt and International paper. but
these were not sustained, many ma
terial losses being registered at the
heavy close. Sales amounted to 10000
shares.
News of the day, which bore more
or less pertineutly on market values.
included the statement that 100000
tons of shipping have been withdrawn
from trade by tho shipping board.
opening OF bids by the government for
the sale Of 900 pounds of copper
and announcement that one Of the
largest Independent steel producing
companies had written Off 100000 in
its inventory to get down to 're-
placement basis"
Considering tho turn into the New
Year. the clearing house statement
showed few important changes for tho
week aside from a contraction of
slightly more than s64. 900 900 in actual
loane and discounts and an increase
approximating $50, 100000 in net de-
hand deposits
The bond market was duh and heavy,
rejecting the reversals In stocks. Lib
erty issues forfeited part of their re-
cent gains and foreign flotations also
cased.
Total sales par value IS, 1900 Old
U. S. bonds unchanged on call for the

WHEAT PRICES AGAIN
CLOSE At. A GAIN

Chicago, Jan. s.-A late bulge on
moderate buying and a lack of offer
inss gave wheat a good undertone to-
day and the market closed firm with
prices showing a net gain of IL to 2l&
cents over Fridays close with March
S1.74+ to 3i.i and May 1861 to
S1.66L.; corn was unchanged to Ac
higher; oats unchanged to nc down,
while provisiorJ were lower for pork
and lard but firmer for ribs.
Wheat developed a strong undcrtone
and advanced sharply after n weak
start. due to persistent buying to re-
move hedges against export sales. The
British commission was not in the
market but the continent was a good
buyer and sales of 10000 bushels were
reported to Germany and Italy
A small cargo was reported cold late
yesterday to Scandinavia
Sentiment was a little more friendly
to the buying side as a result Of the
export business.
Coarse grains were slightly easier
carly but rallied with wheat. Trade
was light Minneapolis reported 5000
bushels corn sold to Baltimore, the
first business from that market so far.
Some hedging pressure was in cvi-
dnncc.
Oats were dull while provisions av-
craged higher on scattered buying and
light offerings.
