Commodity Markets
GRAIN MARKET

Chicago, July 23.-Wheat started Ac
to 1ac lower for July. Ac to INC off
for September and 1c to 11ac lower for
December. Buying power was light at
the opening and prices eased under scat
tered hedging sales. Estimated receipts
were $50 cars. Receipts inspected yes
terday were 610 cars; last year Al
cars.
The cash market was relatively frmer
on red and hard, with springs easing a
bit. The seaboard reported Belgian
purchases of 100000 bushels and said
Germany and England also bought
some. Moderate temperatures In the
Northwest and scattered rains in the
spring wheat belt are shown In the
weather report.
Outside interest is light and acting
as weight against bulges, but the
opinion Is widespread that prices even
tually will work higher. Winter wheat
is coming into terminal points at an
enormous rate.
Corn started Mc of for July and Nc
off for September and December. Trade
was small, with a leading wire house
selling September and a house with
Northwestern connections a moderate
seller of December.
Oats started unchanged to Bc lower
for September and December under a
little commission house selling and with
a local professional on the bear side.

THE LOCAL MARKET
Sidestepping Pending Solution
of Gas and Transit
Problems

Whit dealings were on q small scale,
there was a much better tone to the
local market. Electric Storage Battery
on very limited transactions mounted
points to 1852, disclosing very scant
supply of stock. Philadelphia Electric
preferred also came in for notice, max
ing new top for the movement at 81
Pennsylvania Railroad. Lehigh Navi-
cation and Lehigh Valley benefited by
the continued forward movement in the
rails in the New York market. not only
making substantial fractional gains, but
touching the be tprices of the week.
Rumors of a compromise on the gas
lease question helped to steady L. G.. I.
at "a, but very little stock changed
hands. Union Traction, on few trans
actions, moved up to 81, an overnight
gain Of %. Trading was OF the familiar
perfunctory type usually witnessed In
mid summer.
Interest for the moment in the
Philadelphia market centers around the
penings upset the calculations Of a good
many, as in market circles the relief
measure passed by the City Councils

dried affair. The unexpected has put
an entirely different angle on the entire
local utility situation, and a great many
of the wiser ones on the Street have

problems must hereafter be handled by
an entirely different code. As a mat
ter OF fact, the change in the order OF
things came some few years ago, but
only few recognized the altered condi =
tions, while few quickly adapted their
plans TO meet the new issue.
As to the L. G. |. situation, there
Is little doubt but that some relief will
be granted the company, but It remains
to be seen what form 1t will take. Much
depends, of course, upon the attitude
Of Mayor Moore concerning the ordi =

to Increase the price of gas to the con

this Is out Of the way, the Rapid Tran

COTTON MARKET

New York, July 23.-The cotton
market came under moderate Southern
selling pressure at the opening today
and declined to 13 points on first
sales. The weather was favorable over
the belt, so that trade and Wall street
buying, which developed at the opening,
was easily supplied and the market
later dropped about 18 TO 10 points
under the previous close.
Later in the session trade buying
gave the market steady tone, but this
demand did not follow rallies far. and
in the absence of other support prices
continued some s to 10 points below
yesterdays final.
The weather map made a favorable
showing, showers being reported at u
few points in the South Atlsntics.
