Boston, Dec. 20 GP-The Ameri- can firm that chartered the steamer Astoria. which arrived at Liverpool December 3, today denied that 't could be the vessel that was report ed to have sunk in the Black sea.
 The Merrimac Chemical company which has the Astoria under char ter, announced that the steamer Was loading at Fowey, England, yester- day. The steamer is the former German steamer Burlo Bank. IL was purchased from the navy by the Richard T. Green company of Chelsea.
 Shipping authorities here were in- clned to the belief that the vessel wrecked In the Black Sea was not of American registry.

DUN's REPORT

NEW YORK, Feb. 5.-Dun's tomor-
row will say: "The present lack of
further growth of business in some
directions does not lessen confidence
in the situation generally. Results
thus far in the new year have not
in every case fulfilled expectations,
yet there is no evidence of real re-
action, current statistics testifying to
the continuance of an unusually large
volume of transactions, in the aggre-
gate. Some markets have lately
turned more definitely against sell.
ers but the decline in the monthly
index number is only about one per
cent and was due to lower prices for
various foodstuffs rather than to
easing in manufactured products. An
abatement of activity in certain
channels now, after last years ap-
preciable expansion, is not surprising
nor does it indicate a diminution of
consumption. The facility with which
supplies can be secured in most in
stances, because of large outputs and
efficient transportation service, tends
to act as a brake on buying, there
being little pressure to make forward
commitments as protection against
uossible shortages of merchandise.

GRAIN MARKET

CHICAGO Feb. 5.-Wheat took a
late upward swing in value today,
helped by signs that actual exports
of North American wheat are on a
big scale Notwithstanding persistent
advices of only small business with
Europe. Closing quotations on wheat
were firm at the same as yesterdays S
finish to one cent higher, May 1755s
with corn - to 81 cent down, oats B
to A@% cent off, and provisions
varying from five cents decline to ~
cents advance.
In connection with talk which was
heard relative to very large wheat
exports, said to be in progress from
North America, assertions were made
that less than ten per cent of the
Canadian crop is now left in the
hands of the farmers. 1t was also
pointed out that official figures on
wheat exports and flour from Cana
da give a total of 61,697,O00 bushels
for December last as against 33,5O0,
600 bushels for the corresponding
time a year previous. The Inference
was drawn that Europe is rapidly
absorbing the North American sur
pulls in spite of constant iteration of
small daily exports.
Changed conditions resulting from
the entry of farm cooperative organ
izations into the export field are put
forward as a reason for apparent
misunderstanding of the volume OF
wheat business being transacted with
Europe. News of the cooperative
dealings does not come out from old-
line export channels, and as con-
sequence a ma iority of traders fail
to realize how much export business
is done. Strength of prices at Win
nipeg today was taken in some quar-
ters as significant, regardless that
no export business was announced
Provisions averaged lower, influ~
enced by the action of corn.

UPWARD MOVE Is
CHECKED FRIDAY
BY LARGE SALES
1Ru nIsnaren A. p. Mirel

Heavy weekend profit taking by
professional traders checked the up
ward movement of prices toward the
close of today's stock market but
not until after about half a dozen
shares had attained record high lev~
els. Closing quotations disclosed con-
siderable irregularity, with total
sales again exceeding 100000 shares.
The weekly mercantile reviews re-
port little change in the trade situa
tion. Bradstreet's states: Business
seems to be moving forward on an
even keel, with but Slight variation
Of space and nothing i'm sight to
or lmanufacturer' Dun's reports:
'The present lack of further growth
of business in some directions does
not lessen confidence in the situation
generally"
Some of todays selling probably
was inspired by desire on the part
of large operators to reduce commit
laents, pending publication of the
stock exchange figures on brokers'
lolns, which are expected after the
close tomorrow. Despite the calling
of an additional $4,000, 900 in loans
by New York banks, presumably to
strengthen their reserve position, call
money held steady at five per cent,
with loans available in the outside
market as low as Az. Easier rates
are looked for next week.
Heavy accumulation of Union Oil
of California, which was reported to
be connected with some unrevealed
merger plans. sent that stock up
four points to a new high record at
46, but it eased off to as at the
close.
Motors displayed another temporary
outburst of strength but were unable
to maintain their gains in the late
wave of selling. Hudson closed 5s
higher at 1862 after selling two
points above that figure. Chrysler
touched 523s and then eased to 81 IS,
up1 Y on the day. Jordan, White and
Mack trucks showed fractional net
gains but closed a point or more be-
low their earlier high levels.
General Electric established new
record high price at 35O15 and then
sold off to BAT for a net loss of one
point on the day. A new peak price
was also dtldlheu ny Allleu ChoiiiACe'i'
Commodity markets were irregular,
Wheat futures closed unchanged to

taking place in the late trading. Cot
ton was 8 to II points net lower Raw
sugar was unchanged but futures
were slightly lower and coffee OPP

Up MAN WITH
TIRE PUMP

Waylaid Sunday by four "jelly'
BEANS" one of them armed with re-
volver, F. W. Vollmer, 1915 Nebras-
ka street, was beaten severely about
the head with an automobile pump :;
while his companion, Joe Olenik. PIG
Vine street, disobeyed the quartet's OK
ders, fled and escaped unhurt.
Though disinclined to give a mo-
five for the attack, Vollmer and Ole
mix intimated that the incident grew
out of trouble early the preceding
evening at dance.
The injured man and his companion
said they were stopped near the BEN
brickyard ON the Sutherland Springs
road by the four and forced to get
out Of their automobile at the point OF
a gun.
After administering the beating to
Vollmer, the quartet left in an auto
mobile. Olenik and VOllmer then
came TO the detectives office where
they reported the attack.
The injured man received emer-
gency treatment at the Robert b.
Green Hospital for several gashcs IL
