OPENING
Oil and Industrial Shares Lead
Market in Forward
Movement.
Copyright. 1923. by Cosmopolitan
NJn~x. Cn~1ySaa


NEW YORK, June 1.-The stock
market continued under moderate
pressure in the first part OF today's
half session, and slightly lower
prices were recorded for few Of
the market leaders. The steel
stocks received the bulk Of this
early pressure, Steel common MAX
ing new low for the year at 94A,
Gulf States losing 1A, Crucible
and Republic nearly a point. Mar
land was the weak member of the
oil group, making a new low for the
movement at 43, while Baldwin and
American Locomotive yielded q
point each.
Under the leadership of the oils
and industrials, the market exhib-
tied good rallying powers in the
second hour, and prices in practi.
cally every department Of the specu-
lative list ruled higher. California
Petroleum sold up from 112 to
115A, more than three points above
the previous close; steel stocks re.
gained a good part of their losses,
and equipments turned sharply
upward.
The market continued its narrow
and professional aspect, with an
inclination on the part of the bears
to cover stocks sold heavily during
yesterdays break. AS in previous
weeks, there is evidence aplenty
that selling activity in the last two
sessions was chiefly for short &C:
count, and represented real genuine
liquidation either by small or large
traders.
The market was almost at a
standstill in the last period, with
trading on the smallest scale, and
interest displayed only in few
OF the speculative leaders. Oil
stocks continued in the position of
leadership with the high prices of
the day fairly we'll maintained.
Shipping stocks displayed renewed
weakness, with prices near the low
for the year.
Grain prices were also lower at
the start, with improvement as the
session advanced. Cotton sold low
er in further reflection Of the Gov.
ernment's report on indicated yield.
The bond market was fairly ac-
tive, with a steady tone in prime
industrials and foreign government
issues, and a slight reaction in
Liberty bonds. The first 31k's sold
at 100.18; first Az IS at 9S.7; second
AVS at 9S.10; third AIS at 1925:
fourth AIS at 98.12 and the new
Treasury AVS at 1913.

NEW YORK, June 2.--Interest in
the unlisted bond market this week
was largely centered in municipal
bond issues, while activity in the
listed market was chiefly in Liberty
bonds and a small number Of foreign
government issues. The bond mar
ket, in fact, exhibited the holiday
spirit that was in evidence In the
stock market, and the volume Of
transactions was considerably re-
duced.
New offerings for the week aggre.
gated SAC, O00, 900, against $4,000, 900
in the week preceding. There were
fourteen new municipal issues in the
totaI amount Of $22,239, 900, against
$11,7SO, 900 in the previous week.
American cities and States also re.
ecived bids for total of $4,000, 900,
and when the sales are completed
these bonds will add to the market
supply. Four issues. Hggregattng
$12, 200, 900, failed. to find purchasers
this week, because of the low cou-
pons they contained.
Ten new industrial issues. aggre-
eating $13,0O0,00O, weres sold in the
open market this week by banking
syndicates, the largest and most i'm.
portant being that Of the $10,000,000

per cents on SIS per cent basis.
Three public utilities in the total
sum Of 10,650, 900 completed the list,
there being no new offerings OF rail.
road, farm loan or foreign govern
ment bonds.
The feature of the foreign govern.
ment list was the rapid advance OF
the per cent bonds Of the Serbs,
Croats and Slovenes Jugoslavta1,
which rose as much as points in a
single session. Demands for these
bonds reflected the better feeling that
made in the rehabilitation OF the
central European countries.
Though slightly irregular, Liberty
bonds were active and the enormous
demand for them is credited to
sources acting for the British gov.
crnment. Within two weeks Britain
will pay our Government $50, 100000
as the first installment on her war
debt, and payment by Liberty bonds
at current prices gives her a dis.
count of about 2 per cent.
Higher prices were recorded in

road bonds this week following the

CURB MARKET SHOWS DULL
TONE IN TODAY'S TRADING
BY HI. j. DUIZEND,
Cosmopolitan News Service Staff
N0PpAayAOnAanf

NEW YORK, June 2.-Trading
on the curb exchange today was
extremely dull with prices moving
slightly lower. Some further selling
appeared here and there, although
not sufficient to create any weak
ness. On. the other hand there was
no buying initiative, and the market
simply drifted aimlessly until the
close.
Fluctuations in the Standard on
group were very narrow with frac'
tional losses in Indiana at b8A,
Kentucky at COX and Vacuum OH
at AM.
Southern States Oil was again
the weakest spot in the independent
group, dropping more than point
to 1S. Cities Service lost a point
at 152.
= Transactions in the industrial list
were greatly reduced, but the trend
was toward lower values, excepting
in British American Tobacco, which
continued firm and fractionally
higher at 23h. Peerless Motor
featured the motor group by its
weakness, selling down IN point to
AIN, in spite of the declaration Of
the regular quarterly dividend or
81. Fractiorral losses were regis
tered by Archer Daniels and Male
able, Durant Motor and American
Locomotive new.
Mining, shares were irregular.
Bonds were steady.

''Europe's disaster is Americas

credit is tightening and South

all the grains opened lower today

General liquidation was in evil

the market broke sharply with buy

scattered commission house selling
which resulted IN additioal losses.
The trade seemed discouraged. Oats
turned weak with the other grains

One house today says:
1.-THE export and domestic cash
wheat trade has been unsettled by
the lowering Of prices for the fu.

trade yesterday. On the basis of
cheapness prices would appear to
be low enough, but buyers have

Up
~ URING the third week of March,
after a somewhat restless
few months of travel in Egypt
and Algeria, I reached Monte Carlo
to find a telegram from my friend
Huntington. begging me to come at
once to MarseiIles. realized that
there could be but one reason for
such a request, and in less than
twelve hours I found myself with
Huntington and Monsieur Demayel,
the chief of the darseilles police, ran
sacking the contents of a small villa
in the suburbs of Marseilles. which
had lately been the sceen of one of
those crimes for which the place was
fast gaining an unenviabIe notoriety.
I had had no conversation with
Huntington, and I had no idea why
my help had been sought iE this case,
which appeared to have no special
characteristics The late inhabitant
Of the villa, a man of over 20 years Of
age. had been found twenty-four hours
ago suffering from severe wounds
about the head and in 4 state of
collapse. He was lying in q neighbor-
ing hospital and was unlikely to re-
cover. This much. however, was
clear: he had been robbed Of a large
sum Of money, the possession<'of
which he had fool1shly Dragged about
in a neighboring cafe. We went
through the usual routine Of exam
lining the means by which entrance
had been forced into the house. and
hearing the evidence of the local gen
darnerie. Afterward we drove to the
police headquarters; and 1t was in
Monsieur Demayel's private room there
that Huntington at last explained
what had been puzzling me so much.
