HEAVY SELLING IN ] DECEMBER WHEAT
 IN CHICAGO PIT
By Associated Press

Chicago, July 21.-Heavy selling which suddenly took place In the December delivery of wheat here. and which was supposed to be on foreign account. more than offset in the wheat market today the bullish effect Of big export business and of tension regarding the strike situa tion The close was unsettled, Pc net lower to h advance with September $1.105s to 1.10%. and December, $1.11A to 1.12. Corn finished shade to 7sc down, oats, 1b@1Ac, and provisions varying from ZIG to a rise of 17c.
 Wheat prices displayed ten- dency to climb as result of the ap- parently unpromising outlook for settlemen of the rail and coal strikes and because of evidence of new ex- port purchasing on large scale and bulls retained control until noon. helped by estimates that 2,000. 900 to 3,000,0 ,00O bushels had been taken for Europe, the greatest total for any single day this season. Favorab ble re- ports from the northwest did a good deal to deprive the market of sup port late in the season.
 Announcement that in the face of strike interference, primary re- ceipts of wheat today amounted to more than 2,0o0,000 bushels had bearish effect at the last Export buying of corn estimated at 1000, 900 bushels gave strength to the corn market, but only while wheat prices were on the upgrade. Dealings In oats were small. Provisions were governed chiefly blythe action of hog values.

Industry Irregular,
 Says Bradstreet's s
By Associatcd Press

New York. July 2l.--Bradstreet's tomorrow will say:
 Industry is more irregular, with the railway strike and through it the coal tie up throwing deeper shadows upon manufacturing Inter ests whose need for fuel is weekly becoming more pressing. The refusal of the coal miners unions to accept arbitration has been a big dtsap- pointment to the country and this feeling has been accentuated by knowledge of the fact that the rail- way shopmen's strike has been so conducted. by delaying both loaded and empty cars in transit. as to de- prive essential industries of badly needed fuel. Coal trade authorities report something like scramble for fuel, with accompanying feverish prices bidding for supplies, which has proved too big burden for some of the less favorably situated consumers. So far the iron and steel trades have been hardest hit espe- cially in the neighborhood of the most strongly unionized mines.
 "Aside from strikes the outlook is generally favorable. especially as western crops have held all of their promise Weekly clearings s7.o61.- TIT 010"

COTTON MARKET
 IGNORES WEATHER
 DURING THE WEEK
By Associated Press

New York. July 21.-The cotton market has been in the peculiar po- sition this week of ignoring bullish weather and crop news which under ordinary circumstances probably would have provoked a shap upturn. The southwest has had an almot con tinuous spell or hot weather dur ing the week with temperatures at many points in Texas exceeding 100 degrees and causing cotton to shed to a considerable extent.
 At the same time boil weevil ac- tivity has been promoted in the east ern belt by rains which in some sec tions have been very heavy. That the market should have disregarded the numerous bullish reports which naturally followed weather of this character was surprise to many traders, October selling under 22 cents. It's answer was to be found partly in the labor situation and in the fact that good many people in the trade are not convinced that the crop has suffered as much dam age as the numerous private reports indicate.
 It is contended that unless pro- l0nged un0uly the nlBn temperatures in Texas will be more helpful to cot ton than otherwise and that the boil weevil damage in the eastern belt has been exaggerated An absence of outside speculative buying inter est has also operated against an ad vancing market, the trade has bought less freely than it did week ago and the foreign political situation is still considered to be an uncertain factor.
 Dullness in the cotton goods trade has been attributed to desire to await the forthcoming government crop report which is expected by many to show an improvement of about points over last month. In addition to the regular condition fig ure the report on August 1 will also give an estimate of the damage that has been done so far by boil weeviIs.
 A feature of the week has been further reduction of the local stock. Unable to get the grades desired in their own market, southern shippers have been coming to New York for their cotton and steamship men esti- mate that 100000 bales may be shipped abroad from here before new crop supplies are available.

Fleecy Staple Is Still Headed in
 A Downward Dip

New York, Julv 21-with wealth. CT conditions practically unchanged the cotton market today nevertheless continued it's downward course. NNar months Cropped below the 22c l,vel, : October declining to 21 9zc and De- cember to 21 soc, a ret loss of A to 46 points, while January at 21.7ic was 40 points net lower. This dis parity was accounted for by heavy. selling of the near positions by trade CTS who at the same time were buy ing the later deliveries. The market closed barely steady and almost at the bottom, with prices 39 to s6 points net lower. Bulls made little attempt to support the market. They believed that labor conditions werey unfavorable. and that the absence of outside interest would handicap any effort toward checking the down. ward trenc of prices. Around the 22c level for October, a little trade buy ing developed, but this was offset by, private reports of an easier basis in-i the south snd tlat weather in the east was clearing.
 The market opened steady. to .3 points below. following weakness in the Liverpool market Persistent sell- ing of the near positions soon began and was continued throughout the session. Although high temperatures prevailed over much of Texas, they failed to check the pressure. as sell CTS claimed that it was too early for
 the crop to be damaged by hot weather in Texas. and that with good rains within a week the crop in that state might easily show great improvement. Traders also appeared to be skeptical of the weevil news damage from the eastern belt. Freight room for 12,000 bales of cot ton from the local stock was booked for Bremen today, and it was unler- stood that more room was being worked on. The warehouse stock here has already declined about 35.0Do bales so far this month. Exports to- day, 19,S14, making 5.9ss,s57 so far this season. Port receipts, 5,2c3.

Weather conditions were considered more favorable than otherwise and increased the effect of crop accounts. Much liquida- tion came from the long side and market comment had it that this selling was be- ing done by traders who took on their contracts yesterday because they did not like labor news. Considerable hedge sell ing came from the western belt, along with messages telling of more gins start ing up and increasing receipts over con siderable area. The opening was at small declines which were gradually widened during the day, the market closing at the bottom at net losses of 30 to 41 points on the list The most active months closed as to Al points down, with October at 2145c.

enacng Developments Of Strikes Caused Irregular Reactions
Two Strikes Cause Decrease m Steel
 And Iron Production

New York, July 21.-tSpecial)-- The Iron Age says: The effect of the coal and railroad strikes in cutting down pig iron and steel productioh is more pronounced. At Younsstowh' O.. three large blast furnaces haNs banked and the Bessemer steel oe- partment of the Republic Iron ana Steel company has closed down A steel company blast furnace at war ren, O.. has stopped, also one At steubenville, o. At Cleveland the Me- Kinney Steel company has banked blast furlace and at two Cleveland steel plants five open-hearth fur naces are down. Cherry Valley fur mace at Leetonia, O., will prooaoly 20 out this week. In eastern Fehh- sylvania two Bethlehem blast fur- naces have been compelled to panK, West Virginia and Kentucky coal roads have been further crippled.
 The iron ore movement on the Mesabi range in Minnesota has been reduced 25 per cent and some under ground mines have stopped loaolnS ore. One large Pennsylvania steer company, in view of the greater air ficulty of getting coal, has wlth- drawn from the market as a seller of finished steel.
 New business Is falling off, De- cause of increasing uncertainty as to costs and fuel supplies, and on some produces higher prices are be- ing asked. particularly bars and plates. Some independent sheet mills have withdrawn all prices and higher sheet market is predicted.
 With coal growing scarcer some steel plants are substituting fuel all, though at rising prices. Large oil shipments are going to Youngs- town, O., this week, and central Pennsylvania plate mill has started to use oil in it's open-hearth fur naces.
 Earning out of car and locomo- tive repairs features the railroad equipment market, but orders for 2,300 new cars and 75 new engines were placed.
 In addition to the furnaces which have retired from the pig iron mar ket having banked because of coke shortage, a number have virtually retired by asking prices far above recent quotations.

SALES AND PRESSURE OF
 SHORTSFEATURE
By Associated Press

New York, July 21.-Realizing sales. such as usually accompany weekend operations at this period of the year, and pressure from shorts. inspired largely by more menacing developments in the coal and railroad strike caused an ir- regular reaction of prices in today's stock market.
 Early quotations were toward higher levels. but it later became evident that the weight of offerings was in excess of buying power save for a few of the more. representa- tive shares. The latter were repre- sented by Atlantic Coast Line and Louisville and Nashville, properties more or less under identical owner ship, in which gains of substantial proportions afforded a striking con- trast to the heaviness of other trans portations.
 Predictions of further cuts in crude oils were followed by series of raids against that group. Mexican Petroleum reacted over $ points from its top and closed at loss of Z points, domestic oils also being ir- regularly impaired.
 Steels and equipments were sub jected to greater pressure late- when Pittsburg reported shutdown at several of the big mills because of fuel shortage and the eastern railway executives issued a stand pat" statement.
 Motors were hammered down In the last hour and crucicible su- stained a 2h point loss. Sales amounted to 6S5,000 shares.
 All Of the days call money loans and renewals into next week were made at per cent with small in- Quiry for time funds. Thirty to ninety-day accommodations con tinued to be offered at 3M per cent.
 Firmness prevailed in foreign ex- changes, sterling rising almost to its best quotation, of the week, with ad- ditional recoveries in French, Ital- ian and Belgian bills. German marks and most of the neutrals, excepting Switzerland and Sweden, where nominal losses were recovered.
