stocks made further substantial re-
coVerles in the early and Intermediate
periods of today's active dealings, but
gains were largely or wholly dissipat-
ed in the fresh liquidation of the final
hour.
Features of the reaction included
Bethlehem Steel, the coppers, junior
motors and sugar. Some of these de-
clined , to points to new low rec
ords. ..mong the heaviest speCialties
were Sears Roebuck, which lost 4 S-4
points, AID Chicago Pneumatic Tool,
the latter dropping points on news
of the reduced dividend, but ,dllying
slightly later.
Mexican petroleum maintained its
reputation as the most volatile of ali
speculative favorites. 1t fluctlated in
radius of points, its extreme ad-
vance of 6 S4 points ending with
net gain of a mere fraction.
United States Steel was the most
active issue, rising points above it's
low record of yesterday, put falling
away with the general list at the heavy
close. Other steels, as well as equip
ments, motors and the various speci-
alties, comprising the tobacco, leather
and food divisions, manifested simi-
lar unstable tendencies.
Reading and the high grade trans
continentals featured the additional
advance of the railway group, togeth-
err with many minor issues of the
western and southwestern territories
but reactions were also general in

support For Grain
Fails Late In Day

CHICAGO, June Ed. y. So
Grains weakened yesterday in the late
trade and early sharp gains were more
than wiped out for wheat and corn.
News was more or less bullish and sem
timent was noticeably favoring the
constructive side of the market but
when early buyers tried to take their
profits late support was wanting.
Early reports that England was fl
nancing German purchases of wheat
in country stimulated buying, but lat
err advises claimed that bankers were
refusing to allow Germany credit. EX-
port demand was Slow for wheat.
July wheat finished unchanged to
4 lower, and September z off. July
corn, u C to 3-Sc off, and September,
z C down. July oats 4 c higher, and
September, 1-2c to lac higher. De-
cember oats, 7-Sc higher. July rye, lc
higher and September lac up. July
