J Mashlnatons Christmas Stors for Urn
P-B Service
1907

We can't beat a perfect record.
Last year we delivered thousands
of gift packages-and did not re-
ceive one complaint about an error
in delivery.
This year a competent man will
be at the Ninth Street entrance
Christmas morning from 9 to IL
to correct any possible errors.
You may also phone Main 1888
during these hours regarding non
delivery.
But our plans for gift deliveries
have been SO thorough we are tax
ing odds that the competent man
will be able to smoke his Christmas
pipe-undisturbed. And that the
telephone will be seen and not
heard.
Perhaps this is one good way of
expressing our appreciation of
your patronage.

WHEAT SUFFERS
 MODERATE LOSS
Decline Due To Prospect Of Settlement Of Ar
 genuine Strike

CHICAGO, May S.-Prospects of more normal labor conditions in Ar gentina were of considerable effect to- day toward bringing about q moderate setback in wheat prices here. Closing quotations were M to; %c net lower, May. S1.OS% and July, $105ss to $1.065s 6l1 .O5% Corn finished at %c decline 10 5zc advance, oats, 5@ @@H to Mc off, pfovisions unchanged to 7c down.
 Reports circulated here regarding the Argentine strike were to the effect that a definite settlement had been reached, and that work was being fully resumed. Under such circumstances, wheat shipments from Argentina ap- peared likely to become heavy again, with corresponding reduction of 'Eu- ropean demand for supplies from North America. Price declines at Liverpool and Winnipeg tended to confirm this opinion, and the market here also was bearishly affected by current gossip from Washington indicating much un- certainty as to farm legislation pend- ing. Toward the end of the day, how ever, the market rallied a little, some traders acting on a correct belief that the government crop report due after the close would prove moderateiy bull fish.
 LiQuidating sales led to further weak ness in the corn market but the selling was much curtailed during the last part of the day. and with covering on the part of the shorts the greater part of the early losses were overcome.
 Wet cold weather that interfered with planting had noticeable influ- ence as a check on sellers. Besides, there were advices that vessels had been chartered to load 1 10000 bushels of corn at Duluth.
 On the other hand, industrial de mand has remained poro, and sales into store here continued. |
 Oats trade was nearly negligible.
 Provisions were easier in the ab- sence of any special inquiry.

NEW ORLEANS CorToN

NEW ORLEANS, May s.--Aaide from the sharp rally near the end of the ses- sion today's cotton market was rather quiet and narrow. After easing off morning. with July at 27.66c, October at 2S.6sc and December at 23.40c, the mar ket gradually improved with only mod crate reactions from time to time, until the last half hour of trading when active covering by shorts ran July up to 27ssc an advance of 2S to 37 points from the low. The close was near the top. show ing net gains for the day of IS to 24 points on the three active months
 There was little trading in May but that month was advanced 41 points from the early low and closed 34 points higher owing to single sale at 29.s6c in the last moment of trading.
 7 The start showed moderate gain of pool cables than due but there was little disposition to trade until the weather map was posted. This showed rains fin tha central and eastern portions of the belt. where not needed, and rather low tenn peratures in the west. Additional raina ana cold weather were regarded as un- iavoraoie to the, crop and this view sus- tained the market during the greater part. or the day, except for brief spell of eastness due to the sharp break ln francs and the report of serious disturbances m the Ruhr due to socialistic Inachfna tiona. ii. m tne afternoon 1t became evident that tne market was oversold and when shorts realized this and the hardness of the near positions they covered freely rnnninr, prices up to the high levels of the day near which the market closed NEW ORLEANS, May s-FslIswIns are ths .n,n.

BUSINESS LIGHT, BUT COTTON FIRM Final Tone Of Market Steady At Advance Of
 F To 25 Points

NEW YORK, May S.-AOnly very moderate volume of business was noted in the cotton market today. Fluctua- tions were irregular, but the under tone was generally steady. After sell ing off from 2S.35c to 28.03c, July ral- lied to 2S.40c and closed at 2S.S6c.
 The final tone of the market was steady at net advances of IF to p points. <
 The market opened at an advance of 3 to 13 points on relatively firm Liver pool cables and reports of low tempera- lures in the south. Active months sold about 14 to 9 points net higher in the early trading. The advance, how eyer, met considerable realizing and prices turned easier toward midday on prospects for warmer weather in the belt and selling promoted by the easier ruling of foreign exchange, or the unfavorable German labor news. May sold as low as 29.90c and October 24.35c or 5 to 15 points net lower, but the market turned upward again in the late trading on renewed covering by July shorts and reports of a better tone in the late stock market May advanced to 30.20c and October to 24.65c and closed within 3 or 4 points of the best.

STOCK SESSION
 YEARS QUIETEST
Short Selling Based On Insertion Of Graduat-
 led Corporate Taxes

NEW YORK, May S.--Reactionary price movements predominated in to- dax's dull and .uninteresting stock mar ket the quietest full day session this year.
 A wave of short selling at the open ing undoubtedly was based on the sem ateis- insertion in the tax bill of a graduated levy on undistributed cor porate earnings. Forced recessions of a point or so in a number of the indus trial leaders failed to bring out any large volume of stock and aggressive tactics on the short side were soon abandoned.
 Oils proved vulnerable to selling pres- sure on publication of the weekly re- part of the American Petroleum i'm stitute showing another increase in crude production for the week ended May 3. Sinclair was the chief target of the attack establishing a new 1924 low later railing to 1S%. Wall Street heard after the market close that the Sinclair company had arranged bank ing credit of $25,000 which would take care of Its financial needs until next year.
 Atlantic refining was hammered down nearly five points to 106 and then ral- lied to 107. Sinclair preferred touched @ new bottom at 77, or four points be- low yesterdays final quotation. Losses of a point or so were recorded by Gen eral Asphalt, Mexican Seaboard Ctfs and Producers and Refiners.
 Rails showed up relatively we'll, Lackawanna standing out with gain of PA points while gains of approxi- mately point or so@were recorded by Chesapeake and Ohio, Chicago and Eastern Illinois, New Haven, Frisco : Preferred and Chicago and Nerthwes- tern.
 All the the so-called pivotal indus- trials stocks closed below yesterdays final figures. American Can and Bald win showed losses of about a point each at 10 % and 112, respectively 1; Stakeholder dropped half to S5% and United States Steel closed 3S lower at 9S15. V
 While price movements in general were rather narrow, losses of a point or more were recorded by Dupont, Gen. eral Electric, United States Cast Iron Pipe American Radiator, Fisher Body, International Business Machine, Yel- low Cab, Tobacco Products A, and Ma tionai Lead.
 Foreign exchanges were decidedly re- actionary, presumably on selling i'm Hplred by reports of labor troubles in the Ruhr. Demand sterling dropped about two cents overnight to $4.3615 and then rallied slightly. French francs broke approximately 30 points to around 6.90c and then recovered about half of their loss. Moderate losses were recorded by most of the other principal European rates.
 Call money again ruled unchanged at S7s per cent. The time money mar ket was quiet with A. per cent the prevailing rate. Borrowers were not disposed to bid over 4 per cent, with some exceptionally good names being quoted slightly below that figure. " rErknl nAe.nlr
