Renewed Liquidation of Real

NEW YORK, December 9.-Early
advances of 20 to % points in the cot
ton market today on trade buying and
covering met renewed liquidation or
realizing and were not fully maintain
ed. Mid-afternoon prices wer5 within
8 or points Of yesterdays closing
quotations.
The market opened steady at an
advance of to s points on rela-

newed at the advance, but it was in
comparatively small volume, and after
setbacks of few points prices firmed
up again on trade buying and cover
ing.
Fresh buying also was reported sup
posedly on belief that yesterdays sell
ing had left the market in better
iiquidated position and that the trade
was likely to buy more freely at the
lower level of prices. January sold
up from 1878 to 1888 and May from
1912 to 1927, or about 10 to Is points

CURB SHARES RISE
WITH BIG BOARD"
Cuneo Press Feature-NeW-
mont !qineS Is Heavily
Dealt In.
BY WILLIAM r. HEFFERNAN.
pecial Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, December 9.--After
an early period of hesitation the main
trend in the curb market turned
definitely upward today. Throughout
the session the market was following
closely the movement of prices on the
Stock Exchange, indicating that trad
ing for the most part was professional
in character.
Cuneo Press was one of the out
standing features, selling into new
high ground on expectations of a sub
stantial extra stock distribution. Stock
holders are to vote December 16 on
the proposed change in the common
stock from 100000 shares of $40 par
value to 100000 shares of no par. At
the same time it is expected that a
$2.500,0 900 issue of per cent preferred
will be authorized. Following approval
of proposals, directors are expected to
declare 40 per cent stock dividend.
Moving forward in sympathy with
other metal shares. NeWmont Mines
was heavily dealt in. AS one of the
largest holders of various other prom
inent metal issues. Newmont natural
ly will benefit through higher copper
prices and improved earnings.
Richmond radiator, because of it's
earnings prospects and the belief that
it was out of line with others in it's
category, Vas bid up some points
close to the 80 level. Pacific Steel
Boilers. ordinarily an inactive issue,
was selling close to it's high for the
year of 14&. The continued demand
for Borden & Co, was accompanied
by reports that negotiations are under
way for expansion of consolidation
plans. The latest gossip mentioned
the ACQUISITION of Horton Ice Cream
Co.. although nothing official was
forthcoming concerning such pos
sibility.
International Petroleum as an earn
ings and assets proposition was active
1y taken at better prices. Midland
Steel products advanced more than 3
points. Contracts for the company's
steel brakes for 1928 output have been
received from number of prominent
r. or Ger manufacturers and are ex-
pected to add materially to annual
earnings.
