NEW YORK WEAKNESS W 4 E 4 I
STOCK SENDS
 DOWN

CHICAGO, June 27.-Influenced largely by weakness of the New York stock market all deliveries of wheat fell today to new low price level for the season. The close Was un- settled at 9s to 11sc net decline, September $1.017s to S1.01& and De- cember $1.04l2. Corn finished 1sc to 1Ac@1ssc down. oats varying from l4 off to like advance and pro- visions at a setback ranging from sc to 200.
 Preceding the break in wheat prices, the market had shown some thing of an upward tendency as 9 result of rails which it was assumed would interfere with cutting and threshing of winter wheat. The fact that Liverpool quotations were com paratively unresponsive to yester- days sharp decline nere acted also at first as a check on bearish senti- ment. However, reports of excellent crop conditions in the spring wheat belt led to considerable selling, and the ensuing downturns Ill price were given much greater impetus when the market began to feel the effect of shnkage of values in securities
 Rallies at the last were encouraged to some extent by gossip to the effect that the black rust possibilities in the northwest were In need of care full watching.
 Corn and oats showed more resisit ance to selling than was the case in wheat The chief sustaining fac tor was smallneSs ot the stock of corn as compared with year ago.
 Provisions were depressed, mostly by a setback in the value of lower quotations on hogs.

STEWART'S LETTER

BIRMINGHAM. June 27.-Liverpoot quotations came over IS points higher July, but points lower on October. Light sales continued at 5000 bales and spots points higher. Manchester cables con frmed reports that mills spinning Amer ican cotton would continue half time dur ing July and August. Our markets av- eraged little lower on the opening than the previous close, and scarcity of con tracts in July held that month firm dur ing most of the session. but there was selling of October apparently for a large New York operator, which depressed the new crop months 50 points under the open ing, and the finals were not far from the days lows and at decline of 10 to 40 points for the day, the biggest loss being necorded in the new crops. Spots were quiet and generally quoted 10 to 50 points lower prices ranging from 27.30e at Fort Worth to 2s soc at Memphis. The weather map was good except for too much rain in Georgia. and the weekly summary from Washington was favorable. Private messages from central and south
 west Texas were less favorable, saying plant growth has stopped in some places and weevil damage is increasing. Clement, Curtis Co. places the condition at 6S and indicated yield of 10.S0o, 900. Stocks and grain were again very weak, new Iow

MORE RESISTANCE: SHOWN BY MARKET AGAINST ATTACKS
Selling Of Rails Increases Following Receipt Of Pri-
 vate Report
By WALTER BROWN 'ditOr New York COmmerci;

 Neased Wire to The Age-Herald.)
 NEW YORK, June 27.-While the drive against stocks was renewed again Wednesday, there was more resistance and buying was decidedly improved. At the same time, the selling, particularly of rall stocks, increased with orders coming from all parts of the country. being more directly traceable to bearsh cir cular sent cut by a prominent Mas sachusetts information service. This particular prognosticator has been bullish on the rails for some time, but now has suddenly reversed his position.
 A great deal of bearish capital was made out of the demands for wage increases by various classes of employees. It is a time when every thing of an unfavorable nature is given exaggerated importance while constructive features are minimized.
 The short interest in the market is believed to be very large and if efforts are made to cover at any time soon 1t may be found that there Is dearth of offerings. Shrewd op- orators understand that 1t Is poor time to sell when everybody is bear ish, and there Is. in consequence, a noticeable amount of investment buying, much of it for cash. so that these shares are taken right out of the market. There can be no doubt about it that it is good time to buy stocks for anyone who has the cash fer there are any number of securities selling well below their intrinsic worth. If this bear market were accompanied by unfavorable in- dustrial and financial conditions there would be cause for grave con- cern, but industrial and financial
