Cantilever Shoes meet both these
requirements. The arch is made
entirely of leather. 1t does not
have a stiff piece of steel-such as
is concealed in the arch of ordinary
shoes which prevents the natural
arching of your foot. The snug
fitting instep OF Cantilevers gives
Just the right support without bind
ing anywhere. The neatly rounded
toe is fashionable, yet roomy. The
low or medium heel makes possible
that easy, swinging walk which
characterizes the well-shod woman

OUTSIDE PU BLICI IS MORE INCLINED TO SELL THAN BUY

NEW YORK, April s-Price move ments in todays relatively dull stock market were indecisive, net . losses, however exceeding net gains Professional operators seemed dis inclined 10 extend their commitments and the outside public, apparently acting on the advice of most of the large commission houses was more anxious to sell stocks than to buy them.
 Speculative enthusiasm on the long side was dampened somewhat by the announcement of a new sl0,- o0O,000 issue of per cent preferred stock by the American woolen com pany which was unexpected by the higher call money rates and by the relatively low tentative valuations on Great Northern and Delaware and Hudson properties fixed by the interstate commerce commission.
 Announcement of an eleven per cent wage increase for laborers for the manufacturing properties of the United States Steel corporation which was made after the mark While such an increase was regarded as inevitable, it was generally be- 1ieved that the announcement would be delayed until the return to this country or E. H. Gary. chairman of the corporation, who is now on his
 
 ports.
 Sugars Moderately Strong. { Baldwin, American Locomotive, American Voolen and Pan American closed 1 to F points lower but most of the other active industrial issues yielded only fractionally Sugars developed moderate strength In response to sales of Cuban raws at sac pound, new high for sbo elso made belated response to the reports of record -brea king motor car production, Martin Parry climbing nearly 2 points and Mack Truck Is 1. Chandler, Studebaker, Hudson and Hupp motors yielded fractionally while Stew.ardt- Warner fell back 1 1a and Willys-Overland preferred 27s.
 Trading in railroad shares con- tinued lethargic but some good buy ing orders were reported just under current market prices. Chesapeake and Ohio moved up 1A points on a small turnover.
 Call money opened at 41s per cent advanced to in the early after noon and thence to 542 The time money market was quiet with 5la per cent the ruling rate.
 Foreign exchange rates were ir. regular. Demand sterding eased off more than cent to 4.65 F. heavi- ness being attributed to the unset ted labor situation in England and unconfirmed reports that Great Brit ain was building up dollar credits here in anticipation of the next in- terest payment on her war debt. French francs advanced 1212 points to 6.7&1ac on reports of government support.

FOREIGN BONDS
Told by Priuate Wires


NEW YORK, April 9.-An increase in the spot sales In Liverpool with trade fix ing prices brought a higher market abroad this morning. Our market responded to the improvement, but the advance failed to hold. heavy selling again made its appearance, carrying prices down to around Saturdays close.
 The weather in the south has not been favorable, and while 1t was somewhat clearer over the week end. cold north wind was blowing in Texas. which usually brings rain at this season of the year. Sentiment. however, continues to be gen orally against the market as there is a strong feeling that present prices fully discount the situation. We do not agree with this. However. we feel that unless the weather improves the crop will be off to late start.
 Reports from the dry goods market in- dicate that the situation there. while not particularly active, is strong. and the undertone good. Futures in Liverpool are due tomorrow. May. 16.53d.-Hubbard Rros 6, Co

STEWART'S LETTER

BIRMINGHAM, April 9.-Liverpool fu- lures came over about 15 points better than due with large sales of 10000 oales at an advance of IS points in their mld- dlings Cables from Manchester were op- timistic stating business good ana buying was heavy among the trade. Our markets opened about 25 points above Saturday close on the improved Liverpool. There was considerabl buying of May and July and shorts covered freely. which showed the May option in New York about BOG. This BOG quotation for the near month, which rally of 175 points from the low week ago, attracted lot of scat tered liquidation at a cost of 20 points to the May premium and incidentally brought about 30-point setback in July.
 The liquidation in May today doubt less speculative as the reported large hold ings of spot people are still supposed to be intact. The finals were to 20 higher than the previous close. Spots were gen orally unchanged to 25 up. with good in- quiry reported from many south points, however, no marked improvement noted in the demand. Complaints from many sections of late starts in planting continue. The weather map was somewhat better with indications of a forecast for western belt more rains. eastern belt clear and warmer. Sentiment is rather mixed. but majority of trade appears to favor sales of October such bulges occurred to- day.-S. R Stewart & Co.

 A. A. Housman Co.'S letter on stocks Sl 5 hy nr,yate wire to Doremus Daniel x CO.,
 Fear of higher call rates brought some speculative selling into the market In ~ the last part of the morning, but trading was dull, Definite sentiment was conspicuous by its absence The market is perhaps per cent professional and such traders seem content with small profits either way and seem willing to change sides at every opportunity. It appears that Hahhs 7 traders are watching the market instead of participating, because of the slusssh- ness of Steel common. The very optihis- tic trade reports from steel centers nave influenced market sentiment 10 the estent of an expectation of a decided move Tn steel shares As there seems to be no oe- ctded indication of such a move. traders are staying on the side lines,-Doremus Daniel X Co.
