 IN STOCK TRADING
 WAS FEATURELESS
Bond Market Reflected the Sluggish Course of Stocks, With Irregular Tone Pre-
 vaiIing Among Liberties
Rv Associated Prss.

New York, April 9.-The two-hour ses- sion of the stock market today calls for no extended comment, dealings failing to reach nominal proportions Such changes as occurred were without im- pnrtance and resulted mainly from week. end covering of short contracts.
 Rails of the more acceptable type and several of the prominent industrials and food issues were again under moderate pressure, notably Pennsylvania, which registered new low record for many years at 325s.
 Oils and a few affiliated issues, also motors and equipments were relatively firm. but the movement was exceedingly contracted, many popular issues remain ing unquoted
 The bond market reflected the slug gish course of stocks, an irregular tone prevailing among Liberty issues and most other domestic bonds International is- sues were featureless.
 Total sales. par values, 4,325, 900.
 Noteworthy features of the weekly clearing house report included an actual decrease of slightly more than s300OO,OVo in holdings of members at the federal reserve bank and contraction of nearly S90000, 900 in net demand deposits. Cash holdings decreased about s1s,600, coo leav- ing deficit of s4,331 1920 below legal re- quirements.
 General news of the day embraced the weekly surveys of business conditions by trade authorities and the March tonnage report of the United States Steel cor poration showing a further reduction of about 650,000 tons in thrilled orders.

FREEZING WEATHER
 FORECAST RESCUES
 DEPRESSED MARKET
All Gains In the Chicago Pit Trading Were BoIstered Up on Outlook Throughout
 the Belts
By Associated Press

Chicago, April s.--Forecasts of freezing weather came to the rescue of the grain markets today after depressing economic news from England and scattered selling had started prices downward. At the finish wheat was unchanged to 1Ac up, including May. s1.ss% to s1.a5 and July s1.12a4 to $l13. Corn was hGDAc to A@ssc net higher. Oats showed a net gain ot Ac to ssc. and provisions were un- changed to 2oc higher 3
 While May wheat showed an easier. tone and sold at the lowest figure on the crop, July was firmer and averaged higher because of buying induced by forecast of freezing temperatures over the belt with reports of half to an inch of ice in parts of Nebraska and Iowa last night. While no damage was claimed, the trade was apprehensive that the crop might receive serious setback, and the May-July spread narrowed with much selling of May and buying of July. The seaboard reported 350,000 bushels sold to Germany and Belgium. It was estimated that the United States has 2o,oo0,00O bush els of wheat sold for export to June which has not been shipped. Corn and oats showed a rather firm undertone, with some buying of oats on reports that the freezing temperatures in the west had done some damage. There was fair commission house buying on both grains on the breaks and the undertone for sew cral days has been rather firm. Country offerings were limited. Provisions aver aged higher, with lard showing the most strength, the upturn in hogs being lhe main influence.

New York, April Especial. Jour market remained very dull and quiet awaiting fresh news of the English coal strike. However, nothing ap- peared to influence the market either way from that source. A little short covering was noticeable and kept the market steady around last nights closing prices.
 A very encouraging feature is the slightly better feeling in Manchester This will undoubtedly have consid- erable influence throughout the trade Our advices from the south indicate that the decrease in acreage and fer tilzer will be reflected in next year's crop. Heretofore we have heard this news from the south regarding cur Etailment, but this year it will be a necessary with the farmer. We expect gradual improvement pending news from abroad.-Hubbard Bros. & Co.

OIL FIRE IN MEXICO
DECLARED ACCIDENTAL
Lightning or Boiler Started Blaze.
Number of Wells Afire and
Losses Unknowns
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
MEXICO CITY, July 21.-Reports
concerning the fire in the Amatlan
OF! held in the state of Vera Cruz re-
ceived UP to late hour last night
were conflicting and meager, although
almost all of them agreed that the
nre was of accidental origin and that
TOUR wells were burning in Lot 1862,
centering about Amatlan, which is
seventy miles southwest Of Tampico.
TWO theories, both based on dis
patches from Tampico. have been ad-
Nanced as to the cause Of the fire.
The first was that a heated boiler
near an incoming gusher ignited the
oil and the second that lightning
struck two wells simultaneously.
Several dispatches received last
night asserted that the whole Of Lot
162, comprising thirty-five hectares,
or approximately eighty-five acres,
had been swept of its drilling rigs and
other property, and that numerous
wells were burning with no poss-
bility of thier being extinguished. On
the other hand, other dispatches de-
clared the fire was confined to three
or four wells, with the f1re-flghting
forces recruited from thousands Of
laborers from other fields SO organ
lied as to render spread Of the
flames unlikely. Government officials
were able to add but little up to mid
night to the general knowledge of
the situation. All estimates OF the
monetary loss can only be mere
guesswork until the flames have sub
sided.

SHANGHAI. China, July 22.-Man-
uel L. Quezon, president Of the
Philippine senate, was here yester-
day on his way to the United States.
He refused to give his reason for
going. but intimated that he would
attend the Washington conference,
which is expected to deal with the
Pacific question He pointed out that
an agreement between the United
States, Japan and Britain would
mean that a protectorate over the
Philippines was unnecessary.
Mr.. Quezon does not expect any
thing reactionary to result from Mai.
Gen. Woods mission to the islands.
He was pleased at Gen. Woods selec-
ton for the duty Of reporting upon
the state of affairs in the islands. He
emphasized the need of retaining the
good will of the Filipinos, 100000
of whom would be ready to fight for
the United States in the event of
trouble in the Pacific. He hoped for
the immediate independence Of the
Philippines under an American pro-
tectorate.
Mr.. Quezon. who was formerly
resident commissioner at Washing
ton, left for Japan yesterday.
