Best Industrials Gain.

The same character Of buying was
prominent in high grade industrials,
like United States Steel 5s, which again
Were at 100. and in the legal public
utilities. The subsidiaries of the
American Telephone and Telegraph
Co. were ali strong. on the basis of
the premiums for the recent offerings
of Pacific Coast Utilities there may be
n readjustment upward in the figures
at which some Eastern power and
light companies will do their financing.
Not being able to satisfy the demand
for the first grade Of corpora ton
bonds, there was an overflow of funds
into the market for secondary issue
These We're also bid up quite sharply
The net result was to bring the gen.
eral average of the bond market very
close to the high Of the year
Conspicuous issues in the group of
Junior bonds were Western Maryland
5 as, Wabash SIS. Missouri Pacific 5s
Utah Light and Traction 5s. Spokane
International 5s and Florida East
Coast 5s, which rallied after two
point decline this week.
Mexicans Are Quieter.
The violent speculation which be-
gan in Mexican government issues
yesterday died down after a turnover
of approximately $1250,000. There
was further profit-taking today. In
spite of this the net gain on the
movement is substantial.
Other foreign issues were steady,
but not quite up to recent high
prices. There was a little firmer
tendency to German city and state
issues, in anticipation Of the new
Prussian per cent loan, which is
expected to be offered early next
week between 90 and 96l2.
French and Belgian and Italian gov
ernment and municipal bonds were
firm. There has. been a good demand
for Japanese public utilities, with the

CHICAGO. September 22.-With
only lisht frost reported as rule
today in the corn belt and weather
generally auspicious. corn prices took
an early fresh upturn. Wheat
went lower on account of rains in
Australia and fine weather in Canada
Opening unchanged to half cent off,
the corn market later suffered a de-
cided setback all around. Wheat
started at q decline 10 ls advance
and subsequently underwent a gener-
al sag. Oats were easier. Provisions
likewise tended downward.
Taken as a whole. temperatures
over the corn belt were about to 8
degrees higher today than at the
same time Yesterday with the excep-
tjon of some points in Iowa. With
the immediate serious general danger
from frost apparently eliminated. free
selling of corn was much in evidence
and buyers showed Il disposition TO
wait tor breaks before purchasing
to any great extent.
