LOSSES IN WALL
STREET ARE LESS
THAN EXPECTED
Financial Group Looks 0pti-
unsteady Forward to Cool
idge Administration,
The WALL STREET JOURNAL

NEW YORK, Aug. Avail street
does not look for any serious de-
cline in security values as the result
of President Hardings death and is
of the opinion that even if the mar
ket should experience an important
downturn it viii be only temporary
as no fear is expressed that any radi-
cal change in Administration policies
will be made. Fridays suspension of
activities gave the Street opportunity
to consider the situation ami losses
in initial transactions in leading is
sues were largely confined to frac-
tons.
First Hour
Heaviness in the early dealing was
augmented by further selling as the
hour progressed. Studebaker lost
q and other leaders suffered similar
recessions, but the decline was later
shocked by indications of important
buying based on the thought that the
mantle of the late president falls up
en- the shoulders of a man no less
capable of handling the nations affairs
and the belief that sentiment regard
ing the change in the head of the ad-
ministration would quickly crystalline
along construction lines.
Closing Hour
A better tone was in evidence
toward the close of the brief market
session, despite the fact there was
some uncertainty over the European
situation. Foreign exchanges. how
ever, were generally steadier and the
list viewed in retrospect showed that
no particular group had been any
weaker than another, a fact that at
tached significance to the sentiment

HOG PRICES TAKE
DROP OF QUARTER
Heavy Receipts, SIackened
Demand Cause Decline.


Unusually heavy receipts, combined
WITH slackened demand for outside ac-
count, caused a downward revision
that carried hog prices generally a
quarter lower in trading at the local
livestock exchange today. The drop
was due chiefly to receipts Of II 900,
which included $500 holdovers, as this
was the largest Saturday run in
weeks. Shippers early established a
top Of 1915 for choice selected lights
as compared with Fridays top Of
So. 40 and packers later paid as much
as $40 for similar grades. Mixed
and heavy hogs were off like amount,
heavies selling generally from SIPS
to $3.50 and medium and mixed from
$7.65 to $3.50, while the choice grades
ranged between $7.65 and $50 Sows
and pigs reflected the general de
crease. sows selling down from $675
and pigs from $3.50.
The cattle market was dull and
slow, due to the largest weekend re-
ceipts in months. Approximately 500
cattle were carried over from Friday
and about $50 fresh cattle received
for the day, most of which were Of
medium grade. The market closed
the week steady on the prime stock
and about SOC lower on the medium
grades, which found very little de-
mand.
Trading in the calf market was done
at prices generally soc lower, choice
veals bringing S11 and the bulk $40
to $1,000. Receipts, 800.
The sheep and lamb market was
quiet with sheep selling steady at Sc

lar lower at 81 down. Receipts, goo

RECESSIONS GENERAL
IN TRADING ON CURB
However, Market Displays Confident
UndertOne Toward Close.

BIZ United Financial
NEW YORK. Aug. 4.-Heaviness
induced by the uncertainty over the
business situation and recessions reg
istered at the opening of the stock ex-
change dominated the curb market
today.
The early sentiment pointed toward
substantially lower prices but as the
forenoon advanced and the stock mar
ket showed more confidence in the
ability Of President Coolidge the curb
firmed up but was unable to recoup
all of its early losses.
In the oils most Of the leaders fell
off from the closing levels Of Thurs
day. Prices suffered in the previous
session from prof1t-taking at the close
and prices showed some wide swings.
Industrials were mixed. Varia-
tons showed Congoleum with an i'm
provement of four points at 207 while
Hudson & Co., preferred was off Ia.
The mines were irregular with only
a few active spots.

GRAINS ARE LOWER
ON LIGHT TRADING
Export Business Lacking Due
to Foreign Bank Holiday,

By United Financial
CHICAGO, Aug 4-Grain prices
closed lower on the Chicago Board Of
Trade today.
Light trading featured the wheat
market during the short session. There
was no export business due to the clos
ing OF Liverpool markets In observ-
ance of a bank holiday.
Export business for the week
showed a drastic falling off. Receipts
at intermediate markets were heavy
as were supplies at larger trading CEN
ters. Unfavorable crop news had little
effect on trading. Advice from the
Canadian northwest declared consid-
cradle crop damage is expected from
continued cool weather. Modern Mil
Ter in its weekly statement said spring
wheat sustained a greater damage
from various causes than is generally
supposed; that harvesting in various
northwestern sections is being has
tened to avoid further rust damage,
and that the probable yield will be
half the total harvested last year.

stenographers, clerks, secret service
men and others who are usually sta
toned at the White House.
The executive offices of the White
House are torn up in the process of
remodeIling. The work is being
rushed so Mr.. Coolidge may go there
upon his return from the funeral at
Marion.
Speculation on Policies
There is much speculation and a
great deal of watchful waiting with
regard to what policies the new pres
ident will follow when he really starts
to work, after the last honors have
been paid to his predecessor.
Mr.. Coolidge, 1t is felt, will certainly
sponsor the world court, farm credits
Oh a safe policy and conservative ad-
ministration Of law.
He will have no vice-president- The
Office viii be vacant until the next
election.
The Progressives are already plan
ming to capture the rostrum OF the
Senate. A member of that body will
be elected to preside, though he will
have no official recognition otherwise.
The seat is a strong one, and with an
unsympathetic Progressive in the
chair, much damage could be done
the Administration program by ad
verse decisions.
Senator Curtis. Kansas. Republican
whip" probably will be the Admins
tration candidate for the chair.
Daugherty May Leave
The possibility Attorney General
Daugherty and possibly Secretary of
Commerce Hoover might leave the
Coolidge Cabinet is being freely dis
cussed. Daugherty has wanted to
retire for some time, but remained
at the urging Of Mr., Harding. 1t is
thought extremely possible he now
may ask Mr.. Coolidge TO permit him
TO retire.
Though mourning the passing of the
President. Republican leaders cannot
but speculate on the effects the death
of the President win have on their
party.
Mr.. Coolidge is considered certain to
carry out the basic principle laid
down by Mr.. Harding. He stands
strongly on most Of the important
points of government his predecessor
demanded.
