Curb Market
BY STUART p. WEST
Copyright, 1922.

New York, June 9.-Prices moved
with much irregularity on the curb
exchange today There was
strength in the motor stocks. heavi-
ness in steels and tobaCcos, and a
series of confused changes in the
oil group,
Hudson Motor led the automobile
group. The stock made a new high
record on buying which originated
with the stock exchange house rep
resenting the banking interests in
the company. The advance evil
IDENTIFY anticipated the early listing
of the stock on the big board. A
new high was also made in Moon
Motors and the Mercer certificates
were fractionally higher.
Cuban Dominican Sugar, inactive
for some time, started up in SYM
patty with the strength of sugar
stocks on the stock exchange. The
buying came from the same people
who have been active lately in Hud-
son Motors. North American steel
and Tobacco Products were easier
Phillip Morris was strong for a
while but later yielded to profit
taking. Trading began in American
Metals Limited, when issued, the
common rose a point, in the fore
noon and fell back sharply, while
the preferred move over a range of
a poin@ to a point and a half.
Standard Oil of New York which
accumulated a short interest ON
operations of previous days was in
f1uenced by rather heavy short COW
ering under which the stock re-
bounded. Standard Oil of Ken
lucky was weak at the start but did
better later on. International Pc
troleum and anglo American con-
tinued to sag but Sicily after some
further liquidation had a fair rally.
Mexican Seaboard stock. sold ex-
dividend and. was slightly lower
while the voting trust certificates
also went off a bit Woody Pc
troleum was bought on reports of
favorable field operations and also
on the expectation that a new we'll
would be brought in shortly.

WHEAT PRICES
START LOWER;
CORN is STRONG
(By Consolidated Press.l

Chicago, June 9.-Wheat started
sharply lower. The lower cables,
reflection of the bearish govern
ment report. caused a rush to sell
at the start and some stop loss or
ders TO sell were executed. Strong
interests bought the wheat on the
break and this started shorts COW
ering. A bulge of cents was re-
corded from the low point before
offerings were heavy enough to
check the decline. Thereafter the
market needed constant support to
maintain prices because prices
sagged whenever strong interests
withdrew their orders, but when
ever these orders appeared there
was a scramble to cover short
wheat and prices regained the
ground lost quickly. There was
little in the news to inspire the
bullish demonstration. In addition
to the weak cables and the bearish
government report, the Seaboard
reported 100000 bushels new hard
winter and 160. 900 bushels of Man
itoba wheat bought back from
abroad at &c below an American
parity. Exporters bid 115c less
for hard winter wheat than was
paid yesterday. Vessel room for
100000 bushels of wheat to Buffalo
was chartered. New wheat was Of
fered freely to arrive on the bulge.
A bull movement was on in corn.
There was good buying at the start
by floor by professionals aided by
some of the eastern wire houses
and shorts covered freely. Offer
ings were not heavy at the start,
but after a good bulge realizing
sales checked the upturn. Cash
demand for corn was exceedingly
slow and sales were limited to a
few cars. Country offerings to
arrive were free on the bulge and
cash handlers booked fairly good
sized accounts.
Oats were affected blythe strength
in grain and had a good sized rally
after an opening decline on short
covering. Cash demand was better
with sales of 10000 bushels report
ed to exporters late yesterday.

COTTON PRICES
NIT HIGH SPOTS;
MONEY ISLOWER
ny STUART p. WEST.

wall Street, New York, June a.
the most interesting feature in the
markets today again lay outside the
stock exchange. The stock dealings
sonffnued to show a dwindling pub
Ne interest, although there was lit
Ne selling of consequence. But of
,ore Importance than anything oc-
.nrring in this quarter was the
sreat strength of the cotton mar
Sst the further sagging of money
,afes. the heaviness in the foreign
Exchanges and the series of rapid
fluctuations with which the grain
trade received the government crop
report.
Today's high cotton prices were
fully a cent above the top of last
.utumn, when the government came
ant with its memorable underesti-
mate of the 1921 harvest. The
basis for the present upward move
ment is chiefly the impressions
gsthered from the weather condi-
tons since the outset of the month
fldI Tile 1879 L uOl SAC6pIlO0-
ally short, as was the previous year,
will still be well below the aver
age. Whether these calculations
are or are not reasonable is some
thing which remains to be seen. At
least they go against the precedent
which that if late start such as
cotton has had this season, is apt 10
be followed by improvement rather
than by further deterioration dur
ing the first half of the crop period.
The uperabundance of the sup
ply of funds pressing upon the
money market was again strikingly
exemplified. The call loan renewal
which had reached on Thursday the
lowest in over four years was re-
duced to 3 per cent. Time money
quotations did not get down to the
extreme low of a month ago, but
they were very close to it, with
loans for the shorter period freely
obtainable at per cent and for the
longer period at "A. Continued
weakness of the continental ex-
changes was a measure of the dis
appointment felt at the obstacles
which seemed insurmountable while
politics is placed ahead of economic
consideration in the counsels of
Europe

SUGAR STOCKS

Sugar stocks were again the
leaders in the market Today. The
argument in their favor was that
they ought to sell higher than they

ca. sugar prices are now higher
IMAM they were then and seem TO be
pointed further upward. Good
judges believe that before the sum-
mer Is out raw sugar will reach the
4-cent level At this figure all the
producing companies would be
making very satisfactory profit
and It Is this result rather tnan the
immediate price advance which the
market Tor the sugar stock is dis
counting. Punta Allegro had the
best advance of any, closely follow
cav py American Sugar. American
Beet Sugar and the Cuba Canes.
CONSOLIDATED GAS.
Heavy selling continued in Con-
solidated Gas, carrying the stock
down at one time below 12O. The
per cent convertible bonds hay q
ben called for redemption at 1921
on sept. l next and in order to get
advantage of the present market
prices for these bonds, which today
were selling around 119, holders
must either sell or convert into
stock before that time. This was
the origin of the selling Thursday
and today in Consolidated Gas Is
sues. I.
