The two-day price drop on the In
dianapolis hog market ended today
with prices uneyenly weak to 5

at the local stockyards.
An exceptionally large number was
not sold Wednesday. leaving 1,215
out of 1000 to be offered on todays
market, along with the new run.
which was estimated to be 5000. The
hold'over was twice as great as any
in several weeks. Trading today
was done largely at s12.35@12.6O, the
top being $3.50.

Railroad Stocks Mixed

NEW YORK, Feb. 10.-Leading in

trading. Steel and General Motors
were the early favorites. Rails were
still somewhat mixed, with Chicago
Great Western under severe pres

AS the session began Wall Street

portance. One was publication of
U. S. Steel untitled tonnage state
ment for January, due at noon; the
other the dividend meeting of Gen
eral Motors Corporation, scheduled
for $3.50 o'clock. 1t was generally
expected that the tonnage statement
would show a small decrease. If
this proves to be the case, it will be
regarded as constructive.
- Baldwin Record
Seneral Motors gained q to 155,
while Baldwin jumped three points
to 172, the highest price on record,
and Radio Corporation advanced to
new high ground on the movement
at SOS, up nearly points from yes

A wave of selling swept over the
general list at noon in the wake of
publication Of the United States
Steel untitled tonnage statement for
January. The report showed en-
unexpectedly large decrease of
1863, 900 tons, and was seized upon by
professional operators as a basis for
a vigorous drive on the principal
industrial issues.
Declines
Steel common sold down to 157,
off Us from it's earlier high, and de-
clines Of 1 to points took place in
General Motors, Allied Chemical and
other leaders. Rails also turned
heavy.
Sugar shares were a feature OF
strength in the morning dealings,
advancing under the leadership of
South Porto Rico Sugar which ran
up 4 points to 172. Accumulation
i'm this group reflected restoration of
confidence regarding the raw sugar
market, which is displaying
