STEEL CONDITIONS
 REMAIN UNCHANGED
Buyers Decline To Order Ahead
 Of Current Needs

NEW YORK, June 21.--Underlying conditions in the steel trade have re- mained unchanged during the week. Continuing indifferent, buyers have de- clined to place orders ahead of current necessities despite a noticeable tendency independent of producers to offer slight concessions to stimulate business. Production remained small and mills. were not disposed to accumulate stocks ahead of the consumers needs; Pix iron was quieter east, but more active in the west, where the reduction in prices att. ,tracted a better demand.
 In copper, a continued absence of de- mand yon any important scale has been reflected by a further price shading, with electrolytic now reported available at 1215 cents delivered. German in terests are still reselling, and export. CTS show little or no interest here, while. buying for domestic consumption re- fleets a very small business in finished products. N3 G
 Tin ruled firm in sympathy with London, but the upturn checked con- suming demand and brought about re- actions from top prices.
 Lead steady with more buying in- terest shown in forward deliveries. Prospective cable requirements are large and stocks moderate.
 Zinc irregular, but generally steadier.s While the domestic, trade was quiet, a little export buying for Great Britain was noted. e.e.
 Anthony was firmcr because of light offerings, but cables reported an easy trend in China.

COTTON LETTERS

NEW ORLEANS, June 21.-Showers over a considerable portion of Texas and Oklahoma and cooler weather tended to encourage bearish sentiment, but this was offset by heavy damaging rains in southwest Texas and prospects of another hot wave over Sunday. Traders bearshly inclined sold quite a fair amount at the start, but the market took 1t so well that they soon desisted. Weakness in July, due to liquidation in advance of first notice day, encouraged a renewal of the sell ing in the last half hour; but even this did not affect October much. That month lost 12 points on the days trad ing, to 31c for July. Possibility that June may not show much improvement Is still a factor in the market, and New York wires still talk of the possi bility of a squeeze in July.-Fenner x Beane to Kahn & Virgin.
 NEW YORK, June 21-Good rains over Oklahoma, eastern Texas and the Corpus Christi sections, with prospects of showers in central Texas, brought lower market today. Advices from Texas indicate that the early crop will be greatly benefited by these showers, especially in the extreme southwest. Sentiment is becoming more bearish IS the trade approaches the date from which the government report is made up, and an inclination to discount lhlS report is increasing. It must not be forgotten, however, that selling on June prospects is one of the most dangerous things which can be done, as the critical months of July and August must be passed through. How often we have seen a brilliant June prospect destroyed in July or August. It does not follow, of course, that prices in the immediate future will not decline. They may easily do so, but it is by no means safe to follow d declining market in June. Liverpool futures are due on Monday: July, 16.75d, and October, 15.06d.-Hubbard Bros. X Co.
 NEW ORLEANS, June 21.-Material- izing of rather general light to moderate heavy rains in Texas and Oklahoma, excessive in extreme southwest Texas, depressed the market today. Private advices report 2 to g inches rain at points in southwest Texas, the early producing district of that important state, Ordinarily July would rule strong as a result of excessive rains in Ahe southwest Texas coast section. as

STOCKS RETAIN :; UPWARD TREND |. Gains Are Smallest Since Advance Started Two
 Weeks Ago

NEW YORK, June 21.-Stock prices continued to point upward in today brief session of the stock market, al- though sufficient selling developed in spots to give the market an irregular appearance at the close. Buying was of "a more selective character, net gains, asia rule, being smaller than on any day since the present advance started two weeks ago.
 An unexpected burst of buying in the oil group, which sent shorts in some of the popular issues scurrying to cover was one of the features of the session. Extreme gains of 1 to 2 points were recorded by Producers and Refiners, the Pan American issues. Marland. Houston, Maracaibo and Atlantic Refining pre- ferred, but some of these were reduced before the close. Unusual activity also developed in TranScOntinental Oil, which improved fractionally.
 Rails and public utilities continued to give good exhibitions of group strength, more than a dozen issues in these two groups establishing new high prices for the year. Activity of the low priced carriers was suggestive of pool opera tiofis, the three Erie issues, Southern railway, Western Pacific common and preferred, Katy common and preferred, and St. Louis Southwestern preferred, all touching new peak prices.
 Brokers reported Il good investment demand for the public utilities on the strength of large current earnings. Mon tanA Power assumed leadership of the group today, moving up more than 2 points, to 67A and being followed into new high ground by Brooklyn Union Gas, United Railways Invest ment common and preferred, Brooklyn Manhattan Transit common and Pitts burg utilities certificates. American Water Works common, which has re- corded an extreme gain of 20 points in the past week and more than doubled the years low, fell back about 3 I2 points on profit taking with drop of 1H in the per cent preferred.
 Standard industrials showed little change. Steel shares were inclined to stiffen slightly on reports from the steel centers that the industry showed indi- cations of an upturn. Strong spots in the speciality list included Schulte Stores, OtOs Elevator preferred. Me , Crory Stores preferred and Interna- tional Nickel, all of which sold at their best prices of the year.
 French francs stiffened slightly in anticipa tion of developments of the reparations today's meeting of the pre- miers of France and Great Britain, but the other principal European rates showed only nominal changes. Demand sterling ruled around $4.33 and French francs were quoted just above 5.40c.

WHEAT VALUES
 SUFFER LOSSES
Declines Due To Harvest ing And Favorable
 Weather Conditions

CHICAGO, June 21.-Harvesting under way southwest, with favorable conditions, had much to do today to- ward giving a material setback to wheat values. No apparent influence on prices resulted from talk about pro- posed plans for combining big eleva- tor interests and farm cooperative bodies. Wheat closing quotations in- settled 1h to 1%c lower, July S1.13 to $113M and September $1.14A to S1.14M, with corn as to %@1Ae down, oats ss to 1h @1Ac off, and provisions at 2 to 10c decline.
 Favorable weather and crop reports from the winter wheat territory south west were supplemented by suspicious advices regarding spring wheat in the northwest Gossip was also current that foreigners were reselling and there was noticeable absence of the agres- sive buying which of late had been so effective in lifting the market. Although little advance in prices fol- lowed the opening, weakness then devel- Oped and throughout the remainder of the day the market showed but little power to rally, especially after an un- official estimate was out raising the probable production in Kansas about seven million bushels.
 Week end unloading on the part of numerous holders who were reluctant to leave risks open until Monday kept the wheat market under pressure dur ing the last hour in particular. It was said, however, that most of the st Hing came from owners who were in position to realize profits.
 Reports that were were optimistic about the outlook for the new corn crop led to a sharp declire in the price of December delivery of corn. July delivery, though, held relatively. firm. Oats prospects were regarded as generally bearish.
 Lower quotations on hogs weakened the provision market.

NEW ORLEANS COTTON

NEW ORLEANS, June 21.-The cot ton market was mildly reactionary to- day, influenced partly by the more fa- vorable weather in the western half of the belt and also by a renewal of liquidation of July due to the near ap- proach of the first notice day for that delivery. July at the start traded even with the close of yesterday, but soon started to decline and finally reached H.67c, or 5S points down. New-crop months, while sympathizing with the downward course of July, showed more disposition to resist the decline. Oc- tober opened slightly lower, but soon rallied to points net higher. The subsequent reaction carried 1t down to 24.93c, or 23 points down from the high. December traded 8 points up early and reacted to 24.71c. or g points down from the best All months closed near the low points, showing net losses for the day of 33 points, on July and 12 to 13 points on new-crop months.
 Aside from July, the market was mainly influenced by weather news. Heavy rains on the southwestern Texas coast were regarded as unfavorable to the early cotton districts of Texas, where the crop is beginning to mature. Good showers were shown elsewhere In Texas and in Oklahoma, which were considered beneficial. A storm warn ing for a disturbance of moderate in- tensity in the neighborhood of Tampico was posted during the morning.

STANDARD OILS
MIscFIlANFoIIs OIIs

such rains are considered detrimental and likely to delay maturity of early cotton and may harden the basis for early new-crop deliveries, but July was relatively weaker than distant positions. Wednesday, June 25, will be first July notice day in American markets. The certificated stock at New Orleans June 20 was 19,521 bales; at New York June 12, 55,415 bales. It remains to be seen if the cotton to be rendered will be received on contracts in the face of the big discount in October and prospects of a liberal movement of new-crop cot ton during August from south Texas and other early producing districts of the cotton region. The steadiness of the market In face of better weather southwest is due to sentiment having crystalized in the belief that present prospects are for a crop of only about 11,OOO0 900 bales.-H. and B.

DUN'S REVIEW

NEW YORK, June FIR. G. Dun & Co.'S current summary of general busi- ness follows, in part:
 Steadiness in prices noted this week in some of the primary markets is one of the developments bearing on an early revival of trade. There are in- dications that pig iron is close to the low point, recent purchases at leading iron centers by large interests having of late been considerably greater than for many weeks. In hides and feathers there is little disposition on the part of producers to make further concessions Restriction of production in the cotton goods and woolen goods divisions is rather a reflection of past conditions and, as to the cotton goods trade, un- certainty regarding the future course of the market for the raw material The outlook for the crops is somewhat better, and in the grain markets prices are apparently on a very strong basis, particularly for wheat, the recent ad-
The Birmingham age-herald., 1924-06-22

vance having been firmly held Reports from all sections of the country tell of further revival in retail trade, ow- ing to the more reasonable weather, especially in the dry goods division but this was to be expected. At some centers, particularly at Chicago, this improvement has been reflected in wholesale lines and will likewise ap- pear at other leading wholesale dis tricts. Efforts to reduce accumulations are helped by special sales, which are possibly resorted to somewhat earlier this season because of the unusual sit nation due to the very late spring. Froduction in cotton goods and woolen goods continues greatly restricted, and more machinery Is idle this week, every effort being made to clear out accumu- lations preparatory to the opening of the new season. Conservatism in plac- ing advance orders still marks the trade situation. and every effort is made to avoid accumulations. Cancellations however, are conspicuous by their ab- Sence.
