Curb Market
BY STUART p. WEST
lCopyright, 1e22.N

New York, April 13.-There was
continued activity and strength on
the curb exchange today but the
advances were smaller than on the
previous session and after midday
considerable profit taking wes
noted, especially in some of the oil
stocks. Gillette Safety Razor was
the strong feature, advancing sew
eral points to a new high on urg-
ent buying. Huffman, when issued
was introduced and rose sharply
after the initial transactions. A
new top also was made in Eastman
Kodak new stock. Columbia Pc
troleum was the feature of the oil
group. This stock was in urgent
demand following the announce
ment had acquired the Camp Oil
and Gas company which has pro-
ducing properties in Wichita coun-
ty, Texas.
Realizing sales were rather heavy
in some Of the motors. REQ was
slighaly lower and showed the
greatest resistance to the selling.
Durant old stock went down about
point on moderate dealings. Kirby
Petroleum was the weak feature of
the oils. The selling continued in
that stock and caused a break of
several points to new low record.

Chicago. April I3.-There was
/ considerable action to the wheat
market during the session and the
local crowd generally were caught
on the improbable side on every
one OF the big swings. The sharp
rise at the opening was due almost
entirely to covering by overnight
shorts because of the lower tenn
perature, higher cables and reports
of flood damage. After the first
hour the market reacted when To-
calls were prompted to replace their
short lines because of Allan Lo-
gan's estimate of the Kansas crop
at approximately 12S, goo, 900 bush
els, based on present conditions
Shortly before midday the shorts
were run in by report that France
had taken four cargoes of wheat on
passage and that England was a
good buyer of wheat. Mills took
considerable wheat overnight out

DryGoods Market
BY STUART r. VEST

New York, April 13.-Trading on
the drygoods market was confined
largely to covering operations and
filling in orders over the holiday
and the week end Although the
market will be open Saturday, many
traders will be absent until Mon
day. Prices were fairly firmly
maintained for the wider print
cloths. Mills. are turning down
bids for 3S1% inch 64x60s- at IA C
and some bills decline business at
rs. There was some trading in
sheetings but the demand for ex-
port was not strong. a small bus
mess was done in fine goods and the
reduction in the price of cham
brays stimulated sales for work
shirt goods. The raw silk market
was quiet but with prices fairly
steady, rejecting latest reports from
oriental centers. Finished goods
were dull.
WOOL.
Boston. April 13-Prices were
well maintained in the wool mar
ket today on most grades but bus
mess was comparatively small. Dis
cussion of the tariff have not served
TO stimulate buying by manufactur-
ers but have not weakened the de-
mand of growers for higher prices.
Much of the business today was in
preparation for the holiday. Oregon
woods secured were quoted at about
los to Ito for eastern number 1
staple;, 81 for fine and fine medium
combing; S5c for eastern clothing
and 90c for number 3.

New York, April 13.-under the
momentum OF yesterdays heavy
transactions following the treasury
announcement OF 3ie per cent
rate for its new short term loan
and influenced today again by fur-
ther Improvement in foreign ex-
change and the lowering OF the
Bank of England discount rate the
bond market went ahead. carrying
prices to a new high level. TINS
combination of favorable develop
ments in the money situation Is the
dominant force behind the move
ment of security prices Buying Oh
the United States government IS
sues continued very large and the
volume of business in other parts
of the list was unusually great
The street was awaiting the fed
eral reserve banks report on the
subscriptions TO the new SIX
months treasury certificates loan.
When the books have been closed,
it is expected that the issue Will
have been considerably over-sub-
scribed and that the market in the
certificates will be very active.
The rise in French exchange for
new top in 1922 found reflection
in the strength of French Republic
and Municipal external bonds
French 71as crossed 103 and the
s per cent loan advanced a half
point or more while the Department
of the Seine rs struck a new high
above 81.
The British bonds were strong
and so were all other members of
the foreign government group with
fresh highs for the new Rio De
Janeiro IS, when issued, the Den
mark IS, Dutch East Indies IS of
1862 and the Mexican SIS. Liberty
bonds were dealt in at par or just
below.
Buying of domestic railway is
sues kept particularly active and
sent a number of favorites to still
higher prices. Marine IS and
American Sugar IS, among indus
trial issues, also passed their pre-
vious high records for the year.
Trading was again heavy in At
lantic Fruit rs around yesterdays
closing price. Smelter IS rose to
81. New York city Traction bonds
went up fractionally.

fresh zest TO the speculation in the
oil stocks which were the leaders
throughout the day. There was
much lively upbidding, however. in
other directions and the railway
stocks which had been weak yester-
day we're quick to recover. Lib

SHARP FLUCTUATIONS.
By STUART p. wES1
tCoyprikht. 1872

While the market today again was
broad one in the sense that an
Unusual number Of industrial stocks
came In for attention it was not a
broad market in the old time sense,
that is one trade in because Of the
trade volume of buying and selling
accompanying the various fiHctua-
tons. The public has come back
to Wall street, but not in the big
way 1t was Interested two and
three years ago. The great bulk of
the business from day to Gay is
provided by habitual traders on the
floor OF the stock exchange and in
the Offices who are quick to get in
and out. This means that when a
move starts, everybody wants to
buy at once, and there is not enough
stock to go around until prices
have shot ahead two or three points
and conversely It means a rush of
selling and an equally thin market
as soon as the first symptoms Of
reaction appear. A notable in
stance OF this was Southern Pa
cific which broke on a few transac-
lions yesterday from a high of 80
to a low of S8 and on a still smaller
total returned Immediately this
morning to 89B.
OILS THE FAVORITES.
New Cosden pool gave a good
account of itself. continuing to
work on reports privately received
of very favorable earnings, and the
prospect of an increase in dividends
later. Sinclair pushed ahead on
very heavy trading. The move in
this stock was helped by the an
nouncement that Sinclair has made
a contract with the government for
developing the naval oil reserve
No. ? in wyoming, the estimated
capacity of which is somewhere be-
tween 150,000,000 and zoo, 900 900
barrels. Union oil, which has been
rather sluggish all along, finally
gathered strength enough to get
across the 90 mark. Stock of the
Delaware company represents a
quarter in the Union Oil of Cali
fornia, which today reported for the
three first months of 1922 net prof
it's after all charges of S2,750, 900
against S3.2O0,0 900 during the CORE
spending quarter of 1921. ProGuc-
ers and Refiners went ahead easily
but Texas company did not do as
we'll.
