Slight Price
Change in Dull
Stock Market
Force of Favorable News
Spends Itself and Ac.
tivity Contracts; Trend
Is Toward Lower Levels

| Tho dynamic force Of the favorable
news which lifted tho stock marke,
from depression Friday and Saturday
spent itself last week and yesterday
traders found themselves once more In
= waiting mood. The volume Of &C.
tivity at tho marketplaee contracted to
q marked degree and in the face Of dull
ness slight changes ia prices were
without broad significance.
In the present markets, in which
professional speculators, who are i'm
mensely sensitive to developments,
dominate, Il takes perhaps less time
for news to be dieested by the marke.
than in bull market periods. when
orders dow in from all parts Of the
country. Tho effect Of tho order to
abrogate the national railroad labor
agreements on July 1, the eancell ton
OF tho strike In Great Britain Of tho
Triple Alliance. and the reduction Of
the discount rate on commercial paper
of the Federal Reserve Bank Of Bos-
ton on tho course Of security prices
was precipitate, but tho buoysnt in
tluence was soon expended. Already
ON Saturday, the market revealed q
more two-sided nature, ss proft-taking
sales came in volume.
Yesterday, although tho atmosphere
Of the financial district remained cheer
full, the trend Of prices was toward
slightly lower levels. Instead Of uni
formity there was irregularity, how
ever. In the last hour. particularly,
the oil stocks showed strength on in
timations that the industry has made
progress toward rsadjustment.
Tho March export figures Of the De-
partment Of Commerce were In &C.
cordance with expectations and verified
the observations Of those who have
canvassed tho situation. The Official
statistics revealed further sharp con-
traction and show the smallest amount
of goods sent from the country in any
month since July, 1917.
In the foreign exchange market yes
terday increasing rates on Chinese
cities and the Straits Settlement at
tracted attention. The. movement is
associated with greater buying Of elk.
Moreover, reports Of an improvement
of domestic business IN the Orient, par
ticularly in Japan, accompanied the
frmness Of rates. Sterling and Con-
European rates were moderate
ly firm, although increased offerings
caused sterling to show a net loss Of
hc for the day.
Southern selling caused cotton quo
tations to recede Z to II points, and
wheat, again under pressure, slumped
from sac to &c bushel net.

Goodyear Tire

Representatives Of the managers OF

pany reorganization plan denied yes
terday the reports from Akron to the
effect that the financial requirements
OF the corporation had been reduced
from $85,000,000 to $50,000,000 as a re-
suit Of recent improvement in business.
The plan Of capital readjustment will
be put through as originally outlined,
it was stated, and $s5,0O0,O00 in new
securities will be issued as announced.
The last serious obstacle to the re-
capitalization plan has been overcome
and the bankers are expected within a
few days--possibly to-day-to announce
the organization Of their syndicate for
underwriting the new security issues.
Those familiar with the company say
that It hes strengthened Its cash posi-
ton to marked extent since tho be-
ginning Of the year. Goodyear ia con-
tinuing to increase production and at
the close Of last week was turning out
$4,000 tires q day, the highest produc-
ton mark since last summer. The COM
pany's capacity is $4,000 tires q day.
By May I 1t Is expected the output viii
heve reached 10000 tires daily.

Dollar in Foreign Exchange

Most interest in yesterdays trans
actions in the foreign exchange mar
ket was conferred on the sharp advance
in rates on Far Eastern points. The
gains were believed to reflect increased
purchases by Americans in China, espe-
cially silk.
Rates on Hong Kong advanced 2
cents, and the gain on Shanghai. waa
almost rs great. Straits Settlements
currency was II cent higher.
European rates moved irregularly, q
fairly strong tone in early dealings
bringing out increased offerings, which
caused net decline OF u cent in
sterling at $392ss. French, Belgian
and Swiss francs were higher, as were
lire, but German marks were lower.
Polish marks were slightly higher, and
Swedish crowns advanced strongly.
Others showed small changes.
South American currencies were zen
orally lower, slight declines being
registered in exchange on Brazil, Chile
and Uruguay.
