BUOYANCYI IS NOTED OE STOCK MARkE I I
UndergoeS Reversal Of Form From Extreme DuIIneSS
 Of The Week
By WALTER H. BROWN


 NEW YORK, Nov. 2.-In spectacu- lar fashion the stock market under went a reversal of form during the week and from extreme dullness ana heaviness changed completely about and became active and strong. Mar l1et sentiment also changed and the intense gloom and pessimism gave way to buoyancy and optimism. It was all coincident with the declara- ton of an extra dividend of one quarter of l per cent on the common stock of the United States Steel cor poration and which, if maintained, will place that issue on 6 per cent basis instead of the per cent basis which has been maintained for so long period.
 Something was needed to startle Wall Street out of it's lethargy It was out of touch with conditions and as a reflector of business conditions. Some six months aso Wall Street made up it's mind that the business boom could not last and that there must of necessity be a reaction. It began to look about for indications bearing on that theory. There was talk of imitation and great fuss was made over the possibility of an increase in the rediscount rate.
 Urge Buyers strike
 The raise in the rediscount rate having proved a false alarm the bear operators turned their attention to the possibility of buyers strike. One had followed the boom of 1920. and the argument was that one must of necessity follow the boom of 1923. The fact that conditions were not parallel was entirely ignored. But the buyers strike as such failed to materialize. The people had to have the necessities and as they had the money to pay for them they bought them even though there were ad- vances in prices. Nature, however, came to the aid of the bears with an overproduction of oil, something that ' had nothing whatever to do with the general economic situation and was an entirely new element just as the declaration of war in 1914. It fur nished a grand excuse for pounding the market, and that advantage was maintained until Wall Street had be- come so accustomed to looking through blue glasses that it seemed as if the world had no other color than blue and never had had

STEEL MARKET IS
 WAITING RESULTS
With Volume New Business, Moderately Increased But
 Less Than Tonnage
CLEVELAND. O.. Nov. 2.-Iro

CLEVELAND, O., Nov. 2.-Iron Trade Review this week says:
 While prospects are favorable a waiting attitude is more apparent among both buyers and sellers of steel. The volume of new business has been moderately increased but is considerably less than tonnage be- ing shipped off the books, causing some further curtailment of ca pacity. In either case the change is slight and apparently no impor- tant fundamental changes in the whole consumption of steel continues large but buying lacks the stimula- tion of heavy new demands.
 Where these latter may appear Is Q question but the railroads offer the best outlook especially in con number of new cars in sight con tinues to be estimated at least S0.- 900. The indications suggest these negotiations are turning on the price of material and the settlement of this point to the satisfaction of the carriers, undoubtedly will release a large tonnage to the mills.
 Japanese buying calls for some important additional tonnages. One Pittsburg- maker received further orders the past week for about 20.- 900 tons of black sheets. Mahoning Valley plants have taken round tom nages. A Chicago mill took 2,000 tons additional. A new inquiry put out through the Japanese embassy at Washington has issued a new in- quiry for 20,000N tons of sheets and 5000 tons of wire nails. The build ing situation is regarded as promis- ing. At New York 50,000 tons of school work are planned.
 A large can manufacturer has placed 10000 boxes of tin plate for December delivery with the leading producer. The Steel corporation tin plate mills this week ran at the Highest rate of the present year.
 The best record of locomotive buy ing in several months is shown the past week with 70 placed. The Nickel Plate system has placed 27,50O tons of rails.
 Another slump in pig iron this week has lowered prices s1.
 More weakness in pig iron and some softness in finished steel this week places Iron Trade Review composite at $43.32, Last week it was S43.7o and the average for Oc- tober $43.S4,

PRICE DOWNTURNS IN WHEAT MARKET

CHICAGO, Nov. 2.-With a new in crease of the United States visible supply expected on Monday, wheat today showed tendency to decline in price. The close, however, influ enced by cotton strength, was steady at the same as yesterdays finish to b 0Mc down, with December 106 % @107 to 107, and May 110B to liz. Corn finished 9s c to & @ 7sc up. Oats unchanged to 1s@ A off. Provisions at 12Q15c to 25c gain.
 Wheat began to undergo price downturns as soon as the trading pit opened, and although from time to time rallies ensued, especially in the late dealings, the market at no time went above yesterdays final quota tions. There was a noticeable lack of buying power, and it was said the majority of dealers on either side of the market were disposed to wait on developments at Washington regard ing agricultural relief measures and ward settling the German reparations deadlock.
 Proposed raising of the United States tariff on wheat brought as sertions from bear traders that such action would lead to retaliation from 1 Canada. On the other hand, selling here failed to become aggressive, and the offerings on the declines were readily absorbed. Later, when the cotton market made a sensational ad- vance. the demand for wheat grew little more confident, and the early losses were for the most part counter balanced, despite fine weather con ditions for domestic winter wheat, and notwithstanding further big mar keting of Canadian wheat.
 Corn responded better than wheat did to the unusual ascent of cotton. "a fact that primary receipts of corn were only about half as large as was the case a year ago. Slackness of shipping call tended to weaken oats.
 Reduction of warehouse stocks here gave lift to provisions.

Over Priuate Wires
HUBBARD BROS., L,ETTER

NEW YORK, Nov. 2.-The feature of the market today was the government con- dItion dI report which gave a condition of SIS, with an indicated crop of 10,248, ,O0O bales. The trade had expected a very sharp reduction from the 100000 fig ure month ago, we have had cold weather and almost continuous rains in the southwest ever since the October report Was issued. However, it would appear that figures quite as low as 10.24S 900 were not expected, and prices advanced very rapidly upon the publication of the report. There had been some decline pre- ceding the bureau, so that on this ad- vance the market was in the early after noon cents pound above the low of tho morning, being the maximum fluc- tuation allowed under the rules. Such very sharp advance should naturally bring in considerable amount of realiz- ing During the day this cotton was ab- sorbed by Liverpool and by the trade but above S1 cents some hesitation should naturally be expected Our advices from Liverpool are again to the effect that trade shows a distinct sign of improve nent in Manchester Of course, this bu- reau confirms small crop views Aside from this official confirmation we o-not see that there is any real change in the situation. Liverpool futures are due to- morrow: December, 1S.06d; January J7,S7d.-Hubbard Bros & Co.

NEW YORK, November 2.-The gov erunent figures were lower by some two hundred thousand bales and electrified the market. To add to the bullishness of the situation the detailed reports were read as being more bullish than the report itself.
 It was almost unanimously thought that the government has overrated Texas by 300, 900 bales, and we received reports this afternoon from reliable Texas people to this effect.
 Some local liquidation set in just before the report, but it was taken by the trade, who were also credited with buying after the report. Buying all day has been of the most confident character and 35 cents is predicted much sooner now than it was 6 few days ago.
