Wheat And Corn Take
Slides Shade Lower

CHICAGO. July 30.-tP-Wheat
and corn values took an irregular
downward slide today, influenced
largely by the big movement of do
mestic winter wheat to terminal
markets. Rains in Nebraska tend
ed specially to ease corn. and there
were heavy selling profits for wheat
holders.
Opening at 7-8c off to 7-8c up,
wheat later showed a decided gen.
eral setback, corn started unchang-
ed to 5-8c up, and afterward I'M
derwent en- all-around sag. Oats
followed corn. Provisions declined.

STOCK PRICES
DRIFT LOWER
Market Opens Irregularly:
Reaction Pushes Selling
Orders

NEW YORK, July 3o.-P-Stock
prices drifted irregularly lower at
the opening of today's market. Yes
terday's reaction, the sharpest since
the May break, brought a fairly
large volume of selling orders into
the market overnight by traders
who were Gut Of touch with the
market yesterday. Commercial In
yestment Trust dropped 2 ID
points, New York Central 2 and
American Telephone 1. Allied
Chemical advanced 2 IL points and
Bethlehem Steel /.
A sudden reversal in speculative
sentiment occurred shortly after
the opening when a brisk demand
developed for the Public Utilities
and a few .~specialties. The selling
quickly dried up, and a sharp re-
covery was under way before the
end of the first half hour.
Maytag advanced 2 points to q
new high at 26 SD, one block of
5000 shares changing hands at 26.
Allied Chemical quickly extended
its gain to 6 points, and Newport
Co, Gillette Safety Razor and Ma
tional Cash Register to- 3 points CT
more. American Can, General Elec-
trio, Atchison, Radio, Public Serv-
ice of New Jersey and R. H. Macy
recorded early gains of 2 points or
more.
Wall street apparently construed
the fact that yesterdays sales ran
below 100000 shares as evidence
that no important liquidation had
taken place. This gave fresh encour-
agement to pools which had been
proceeding slowly On the theor-- that
powerful financial interests might
suddenly decide to start liquidating
their holdings and bring about a
sharp reaction.
Trading quoted down in the final
hour when the 11-point drop in
Commercial Investment Trust was
followed by profit-taking in United
States Steel and other favorites.
Public utilities, however, held
around their high figures, Peoples
Gas extending its rise to more than
80 points. Commercial Solvents
rose IL points, the closing was
strong and total sales Appropriated
2,7o0,000 shares.

Noted In Opening
Mart

NEW ORLEANS, July 30.-(R)-
The cotton market opened firmer
today in response to higher Liver
pool cables and on some covering by
shorts. Initial trades showed gains
of 10 to is points and the market
continued to advance after the
start on continued covering in an
oversold market.
The advance was further stimuli
lated by predictions of rapid de-
terioration of the crop during Aug
ust by a private authority. At the
end of the first hour october sold
at 1891, December 1910 and Janu-
airy 1912, or 20 to 80 points above

PRESTON. Eng, July S0.-R9l

in a speech here last night, said his
government intended to give Egypt

NEW YORK, July 30.-(P)-The
cotton market opened firm today
at an advance Of II to IS points on
bullish private crop advices, and
relatively firm Liverpool cables
There was also nervousness over
the continued absence of rain in
some western belt sections while
traders felt that 1t was too wet in
some parts of the east.
At 1900 for October and 1881 for
January. the market met consider
able realizing but it was absorbed
on moderate reactions, and prices
soon firmed up again, with the
market showing net gains Of about
80 to IS points by the end Of the
first half hour.
One private report this morning
said that the crop had deteriorated
severely at the end o. last week due
to increased boil weevil depreoations
and also to heavy boil worm dam
age in Texas.
Liverpool reported covering with
local and continental buying in that
market.
EUJNICS C1OSCO obCdOys IL w 10
points higher. Spot quiet: middling
1890.
The early advance extended to
1912 for October and 1919 for
March or about 80 to 38 points net
higher on the general list. At these
prices, there seemed to be some
southern selling as well rs realiz-
ing, however, while the buying tap
cred off and the market later in
the morning was quiet showing re-
actions Of some 10 or Is points from
the best. At midday the market
was 20 to "a points net higher.
A private report was published
placing the condition OF the crop
at u and the indicated yield at
1870 bales.
Values continued to rise during
the morning until October traded
at 1896 and December 1915, or "a
to IS points above yesterdays close.
At these levels recent buyers took
profits and as q result mid-session
prices showed recessionS of II to IL
points from the top.
A private authority issued a re-
port during the morning making
the condition Of the crop 70 per
cent Of normal, indicating q crop
Of 15,810,000 bales.
