for cotton cloths showed check in
activity or firmness today. Sheet
ings were strong with a fine de-
mand and price advances we'll
maintained. There was especial
call for goods for the bag trade and
rubberizing. The standard print
cloths also were active with 68x72
commanding a slight premium for
far off deliveries.
Sateens were very firm and high
and activity was shown in drills,
twills and combed yarn goods. The
advance in prices of denims last
week has not resulted in materially
checking buying.
The raw silk market was not so
quiet nor so strong today. Buyers

Curb Market
BY WILLIAM G. HEFTERNAN.
Copyright. 1929

New York, Oct. 16.-Announce-
ment of further reductions in gaso-
line prices by the Standard. Oil
Company of New York and the
Texas Company, and expectations
that similar announcements would
be made by other oil companies,
served as excuse to sell these stocks
and brought about considerably
lower prices throughout the oil de-
partment ON the curb exchange to-
day.
Standard Oil of New York, both
old and new, were exceptionally
weak, the new shares being down
7 points from their high, while the
old lost over thirty points from the
high of the year made last week.
The Indiana shares were firm and
higher at the start, but joined in
the reaction as the trying pro-
crossed. Vacuum Oil was also
conspicuously weak and lower
prices were made in Ohio Oil and
Imperial Oil Of Canada.
With few exceptions the indie
pendent oils moved in sympathy
with the Standard issues. Noun
tain Producers, Mutual Oil and
Southern States led the decline.
But Mammoth Oil class A, New
England Fuel and Maracaibo got
slightly above their closing levels
of last week.
The rise in U. S. Steel common,
the stock exchange today brought
more speculative interest into some
of the industrial favorites On the
curb market. Hayden Chemical
went into new high ground on re-
ports of increasing earnings, while
the better situation in the outside
rubber market resulted in another
wave of buying in Intercontinental
| Rubber and this stock went
through six for the first time in
months. Other rubbers failed to
share in the advance. Goodyear
common merely held firm at its
previous close. Mesabi Iron was
another specially that was more
active today than recently and had
a substantial gain.
Macy stocks featured the trading
in the department store group, the
preferred reaching new top for
the year while the common gained
fractionally. Schultz, Gillette SAT-
ETY. Razor and New York Telephone
were quiet and firm.
Durant of Indiana led the motor
group, getting close to its best for
the year on talk that this stock will
eventually be retired through pur-
chases in the open market. Dur
ant common, Hayes Wheel and REQ
were firm while Stutz lost almost
a point between sales. Packard
common was active and steady
while the preferred gained some
what
