IN CLOSING SESSION

NEW YORK, May S.-Quiet con.
ditions prevailed in the abbreviated
session on the curb exchange to-
day. Prices eased off here and
there as a result of profit taking
by spectators wishing to adjust
their accounts before the weekend,
but despite this sporadic irregu.
larity trading in general presented
a steady appearance.
Price movements in the petroleum
group were extremely narrow with
the undertone fairly steady. Stand
ard Oil of Nebraska was rather
heavy. bur other important mem.
bers Of this group held close to
previous levels. Independent oils
were generally steady, with South
American shares in good demand.
A break of about seven points
in Borden featured the Industrial
group, selling being due to the
proposal to increase the common
stock. Mesabi Iron was another
stock displaying weakness, but i1uy.
Ing Of Hazeltine, Durant, United
Bakeries, Universal Pipe and Ra-
diator and Richmond Radiator, sent
these issues moderately higher.
Mining stocks were dull and
bonds steady, the latter being fea-
tured by a further recovery in
Union Oil Producers S's.

Irregular Weather and Late
ness Of Season Causes
Spotty Condition

NEW YORK, May Brad
streets Weekly, Review Of Business
said today:
What important visible changes
are noted In trade and industry
are still toward the quiet side.
Trade conditions, and for that mat
ter, crop developments, are indeed
very spotty, part of this due to
the Pickering character Of the buy
ing, part to very irregular weather
and part to the lateness of the
spring season this year as COM
pared with last.
$50 far as the current week il
concerned, It may be said that
trade at retail has gained little,
that wholesale trade has tended to
quiet still more, and that industry
outside Of budding has also slowed
down slightly.
April mail order sales exceeded
those for March and for April a
year ago.
Foreign trade In March fell
behind February and below March
a year ago, both in imports and
exports.
april failures and liabilities ex.
ceeded those Of March and of April
a year ago.
"In crude petroleum, domestic
production in March exceeded that
OF any OF the preceding three
months, and stocks at the end Of
the month reached a new high
level.
Some features of the week have
been a further sagging in all metal
prices, iron and several kinds Of
steel declining, and non-ferrous
metals all going lower on reports
OF forced selling by speculative
holders in Europe. The drop in
steel output, according to the Iron
Age, from the peak in March, is
now nearly 20 per cent. For this,
slackening in building needs and
less than anticipated tadngs by
automobile manufacturers, are held
mainly responsible. A shade more
steadiness in the scrap market is,
however, reported. In coal, btu
minous production and sale are so
slack that it is said they can only
