BONDS ARE LlSTLESS
Few Traders Present-High Grade
Rails and Industrials Firm.

Copyright. by The San Antonio Light:
New York, Aug. 11.-Today's bond
market was more or less a perfume
tory affair. Many traders were alb
sent. What few transactions there
were followed the lines marked out
all the week. Securities of the very
highest graues maintained most of
their recent gains. 1t is interesting
to note in connection with the theory
previously advanced that while buy
ing in this group was going on for
foreign account. that somewhat the
same phenomenon is reported from
London.
In that market the demand for
British government obligations has
been increased by the doubt in the
minds in the continental investors as
TO the future of their own currency.
Over there the buying is said TO have
expanded so that il embraces the
semi-speculative industrials. There
is nothing of that kind evident here.
Next to the firmness in the high
grade rails and industrials, interest
this week has centered in the reac-
ton Of foreign bonds TO the more
serious news from abroad. 1t is true
that the foreign issues dealt in on
the exchange are practically all dol
lar bonds and are not directly SEN
sitive to exchange rates. There is,
however, q certain sympathetic con-

STOCKS RALLY IN
LAST HOUR AFTER
UNSETTLED OPENING
Little, Business Is Trans
acted as Many Trad
ers Are Absent.
By STUART P.'WEST.

Copyright. by The San Antonio Lisht.
New York, Aug. 1f.-Although
business on the stock exchange was
comparatively small because of the
absence of many of the active trad
ing elements, the market as a whole
was inclined to do better. The list
was somewhat unsettled, first by the
attack against L. S. Rubber and Pro-
ducers and Refiners. But it was
noteworthy that the leading indus
trials held their ground very well.
When the check came TO the selling
in the tires and domestic oils, the
whole list went ahead moderately,
partly under the influence Of short
covering and such stocks as American
Locomotive, Studebaker; American
Can and Baldwin Locomotive became
increasingly active at a point or
more above the close on Thursday.
The pressure against U. S. Rubber
stocks raised questions again concern
ing the current operation and divi-
dend outlook. At its low today Rub
ber preferred was four points under
the Thursday final and common two
points. At these prices both Issues
were at new lows. 1t was reported
that Rubber company's income state
ment for the first six months, carly
next week would show a large de-
ficit. Over production has been the
trouble with the tire companies as in
the oils. Large inventories are be-
ing carried and it was rumorel today
that further price cuts would be an
nounced. The tire companies have
been selling below list prices for the
past three months.
When the Street received news of
the postponement of .he Producers
and Refiners dividend meeting, there
was active selling on the ground
that the dividend might b, passed.
Producers got down around 80 and
Phillips Petroleum was sympathetic
cally weak. Pressure against these
issues was partly lifted before the
close. 10.
Most railway stocks received little
attention but the Fries gained further
ground with the common close to its
highest of the year.
The movement of miscella locus Is.
sues was mixed, but no important
weakness appeared.
Burns Brothers A had n sharp ad-
vance from its final price OF los en-
Thursday in response TO the report
that the company is applying special
surplus account to purchase for re-
tirement of the A stock.
In the last half hour prices were
at their highest and the market was
more active. Studebaker, American
Locomotive and many pecial issues
closed well above the Thursday final.
Phillips Petroleum had regalnel all

UNIMPORTANT SESSION
Early Rise Is FOLLOWED by
Inactive Trading;
Corn Lower.

Copyright. by The san Antonio Light.
Chicago, Aug. 1f.-rrGGe in wheat
was not large today. There was not
much bullish enthusiasm before the
opening but as the session progressed
the bulls became less aggressive. The
opening was sharply higher because of
the lack of strong pressure and buy
ing by commission houses and locals.
The buying was stimulated by the
continued wet weather delay to
threshing and the bullish shipping sit
uation in Canada. On the bulge there
was strong selling by houses with cash
connections and prices slumped TO the
previous closing level. Support was
good at these prices, much OF the
buying being by an active local who
was believed to be strong in other
markets. Buying by spreaders caused
late bulge, the market closing.

Corn was firm at the start but the

upturn there was persistent selling

sales at about where they closed
Thursday.

dividends on Standard Oil Of Ohio,
Crescent Pipe Line and Continental

HOGS ARE SLOW TO
START BUT FIRM UP
In LATE TRADING
Livestock Runs Light and
Market Is of Little
Account.

copyright. by The San Antonio Light
Chica{D, Aug. 11.-Many of the
cattle reported for the local yards
today we're received by big killers from
other trading points and the market
was of little account. In the sheep
house the trade was hardly more than
nominal, as the run fell short of the
first estimate. Sellers had nearly
1880 hogs held over from the pre-
vious session, but the trade was in
fair shape after slow start. About
1000 were received by big killers from
other trading points. Receipts were
1000 cattle; 1000 hogs; 1000 sheep
and 400 calves.
Some mall lots Of cattle sold about
steady during the day, but there was
nothing prime offered and the run
was hardly large enough TO test the
market The total for the week showed
an increase of about 1000 over last
weeks run. Choice steers reached
S12.ij and values were unevenly
higher, some of the best animals show
ing a gain of 50@75 cents from the
close of last week. Best cows and
heifers also advanced. but Gamers
closed weak. Bulls and calves showed
little change from week ago.
Hogs were slow at the start and
some sales were weak Later in the
day the demand showed up better.
however. and quotations were steady
compared with the day before. Choice
light stock made SIS. but some Of the
palmer packing hogs went over Mt
S5.J0@5.75. About COCO were unsold
at the close.
Few lambs were on sale today. and
the trade was of little account. Com
pared with week ago, choice lambs
showed strength with best killing
stock a little higher. Feeders were
strong during the period closing at
$12.T0612.7J for the best. Aged
muttons showed little change from
the price levels noted at the close
of last week
