MONEY BIG FACTOR
IN BOND MARKET
Serious. Hardening of Present
Rates Doubtfu-Rift in
st. Paul Selling.
BY GEORGE II. HUGHES.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, March 2s.-The prin-
cipal considerations affecting the
rise in money rates and the continued
liquidations of French government
securities. The best opinion Is that
there is little chance of the money
market seriously hardening, and that
this weeks moderate rise has been
mainly due to preparations for the
heavy interest and dividend require
ments on the first day of the new
quarter.
Nevertheless Liberty bonds have
been inclined to sag a bit and dull
ness has settled upon the market
curities. Bonds like Union Pacific As.
Baltimore and Ohio As and Atchison
As are scarcely changed at all, as
compared with week ago. The SELL
ing pressure against the St. Pauls
appears to have ceased, the idea
spreading that they have discounted
the recivership.
Wilson & Co. issues were quite
strong today. Buying in the Pan
American Petroleum Convertibles in
spired by reports of a dividend in
crease on the stock from IS to IS
was not resumed.
, The selling of French government
bonds carried them TO new lows for
the year. The per cents were SELL
ing nearly s points under the figure
at which they were brought out last
November. The SIS were practically
back to their issue price.

BEARS START LATE RAID.
Force Prices Downward During
Last Half Hour.
By STUART p. WEST
I Dispatcb to Tho Star

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, March 2S.-The stock
market closed weak today, most of
the decline occurring in the last half
hour. Bear traders, encouraged by
the absence of the powerful support
which had been behind the trading,
offered down stocks right and left,
driving L. S. Steel below 116 for the
first time this year. Baldwin Loco
motives below 110, American Can
down four points, New York Central
below lis and so on throughout the
list.
Coppers Are Heavy.
Special selling broke out in Phila-
delphia and Reading Coal, rejecting
the unfavorable conditions in the coal
industry and the unsettled labor out
look. Some of the copper shares were
heavy, kennecott dropping below As
again. This was due to the fall in
the price of the copper metal below
the 14-cent level. Pan American
stocks were evidently waiting for
more light on Fridays reports of a
dividend increase. 1t was announced
that a special meeting of directors
would be held on April ], and the
majority view was that the dividend
would be raised to sS al that time.
Chandler Motor Advances.
Chandler Motor today advanced to
the highest for the current move.
This buying represented the belief
that Chandler's business was showing
marked improvement as compared
with the time last year when the
dividend was cut to half. Chandler
earned 81 share in 1924. Any talk
about higher dividends is premature.
Earnings would have to increase a
considerable period before such a
thing could reasonably occur.
Cuba Cane Sugar preferred gave
further indication of special buying,
although its rise today was slight
Whatever the results of the Cuban
producers in 1925, the Street is dis
posed to take favorable view Of the
Cuba Cane situation. This is because
of the very good showing made in
1924, and the knowledge that the
company is able to make a fair profit
even with raw sugar prices at a COM
paratively low level.

T0DAY'S GRAIN PRICES.

CHICAGO, March 2S-Although the
wheat market showed an upward
tendency at the opening today, prices
quickly declined. Enlarged export
business, together with relative
strength of Liverpool quotations, was
chiefly responsible for the initial firm
ness here. On the other hand rains
were reported at various places in the
dry area Southwest and there was re-
newed selling on the part of the hold
ers of May contracts. The opening,
which ranged from 4 lower to l ad-
vance, May 1.57 to 1.5S and July, 143
to 1.43A, was followed by gains all
around. and then by a sharp reaction,
with May dropping from 1891 to
1.55.
Corn and oats were firmer, owing
to absence of any important selling.
After opening unchanged TO z high
er, May. 1.09A to 1.09la, the corn
market scored moderate general
gains, interrupted by a transient set
back owing to sympathy with wheat.
Oats started at Il off to Il UP, May.
