ATLANTIC GULF
Chandler Motors Another
Weak Feature of Early Trade.

against Atlantic Gulf was the outstand-
ing feature Of the opening of the stock
market today Atlantic Gulf, after open
ing z Of a point higher at 40. had q
quick drop to 4315. The directors of the
company are to met this afternoon for
action on the preferred dividend.
Chandler Motors was another weak
feature because OF fears Of possible divi-
dend reaction, dropping over 2 points to
General Asphalt continued in supply,
yielding IL points to SIS.
The rest of the list also was lower.
Steel common sold around last nights
close, but Crucible fell l point to s412
and Baldwin u of a point to S9%.
Business was restricted to an unusual
" few issues, all through the first hour
and the contraction in trading was in
dicated by the fact that for the first
time in a long period sales Of stocks In
the first hour were less than 100000
shares. Many OF the leading stocks were
not traded in.
Studebaker was an exception, being In
brisk demand, moving up from lisa

VOTES TRANSFER
TO AID SCHOOLS
House Passes Emergency
Funds Measure.

The House today suspended constitu-
tional rules and passed the Rats bill,
which would transfer 100000 immediate
ly from the common school fund to the
State aid fund for the relief of schools
in southern Indiana. The measure also
provides for similar transfer next win
ter, because the mmOney to be derived
from the ney school levy will not become
available until the summer Of 1922.
The bill was introduced Monday at the
request of Governor Warren T. McCray,
who had been deluged with kilograms
appealing to him to take some steps to
prevent the schools from closing because
of a lack of funds.
Representative Otto G.. Fiheld, who
piloted the measure in the House, de-
cylared that it was necessary to pass 1t
at once so the school authorities would
know whether they could continue their
terms aft rethis week.
Representative Grayson and Barker,
Boone County, voted against the grant.
The bill now goes to the Governor for
his signature and, inasmuch as it con-
tains an emergency clause, will become
effective at once
Ii viii necessitate a sacrifice on the
part Of the pupils in the more wealthy
districts. II is figured that it will
take from 5to 80 cents for each pupil
from the school distribution fund.

RESUMES DEAD
HORSE CONTRACT
Butler to Be Paid for Services
by City.

Samuel Butler, city dead animal con-
tractor. today agreed to go/on removing
dead horses from the streets as a re-
suit of a promise of city officials to pay
him So per animal delivered at the city
garbage reduction plant.
Butler refused to collect dead horses
several days ago because, he said, he
was losing money on his contract The
city paid him nothing, his remuneration
coming from what he could get out of
the sale Of carcasses. Independent scav-
engers beat him TO the dead animals so
often that he wasted much money on
gasoline and labor making frultless calls.
Upon the agreement Of the board Of
works to pay him for the work and TO
get through the city council an ordinance
prohibiting any other person but the
dead animal contractor from hauling
dead horses through the streets Butler
consented to go on with the work.
While these negotiations have been in
progress the police reported that seven
dead horses lay uncollected in different
parts of the city.
The board OF works, the board of SAN
itary commissioners and the city legal
department will meet to devise an ordi-
nance to protect the contractor, it was
announced.

~ .


Notwithstanding the fact that wehad
no news Of improved trade or improved
conditions in Europe yesterday we had
q decidedly better market, though dur
ing the day we had as much irregular
ity as many Of the recent market ses-
sions.
During the early part Of the day we
had sharp decline in American Beet
Sugar, another selling of asphalt and In
a few rails, including Pennsylvania.
Northern Pacific and Great Northern.
During the day many of the professional
element began quietly covering some OF
their commitments. There was no urgent
buying, but sufficient to absorb the float
ing supply and give the market an ap-
pearance of strength.
One of the stocks particularly IN de-
mand was Atlantic Gulf and after an
culated that the company had succeeded
n borrowing some funds urgently need
ed, and this encouraged a continuation
of the covering movement.
Kansas City Southern was one of the
Issues that was consistently strong all
day, and 1t is more than likely the re-
suit of the suggestions Of favorable con-
solicitations that may marerialize In the
near future under the national policy of
grouping the railroads.
There is ample precedent for an i'm
proving stock market during the present
month, though 1t must be confessed that
there is nothing in trade conditions or
world conditions to give much hope of
an important recovery. However, the
markets technical condition may serve
the very useful purpose of giving US at
least temporary rally.

AInrnh


Wheat-An unexpected buying power
developed in the early market. So FAR
as can be discovered, this was derived
from the foreign news, although helped
to some extent by moderate export de-
mand for Pacific coast wheat. The mar
ket encountered realizing sales Of little
proportions; also, a little selling which ap-
pears to be against the movement OF
Kansas City wheat to this market. chi
cago March delivery is relatively higher
than other markets, being about 10 cents
over Kansas City and Is cents over Min
neapolis. Because of the slow milling
demand, this difference In prices suggests
and permits a movement to Chicago.
There were $4,000 bushels sold to go to
store, presumably for delivery on March
contracts. Two private estimates Of farm
reserves practically agree AID are con-
strued as beaTish for the reason that
they do not correspond with the Jan. l
reserves as estimated by the Government.
Pending receipt Of Government figures
on the eighth, the market is not likely
to show any decided trend. Values seem
to be on a debatable basis with the
future action depending upon the size Of
the reserves aud the crop outlook.
Corn and Oats-Previous sellers OF
corn are apparently disturbed by the for
eign news and the action of wheat, as
they were prominent buyers In this
market, as in wheat, realizing sales ap-
peared. Export business in corn is being
done each day, although in small way.
Domestic demand does not improve, but
there is a betterment In the inquiry for
oats. Practically ali advices agree that
the movement from the country will de-
crease as the farmers are not making
new sales. We do not discover airy In
dependence In these markets.
Provisions-Strength I'm grains and in
hogs was offset by hedging sales. This
market has an undertone of strength,
gathered from the belief in decreasing
movement Of hogs and higher prices.
