SELLING SENDS
GRAIN FUTURES
DOWN FRACTION
Session Is One of DuIIeSt in
Many Months; Close
Is Lower.
BY HAROLD E. RAINvILLE

1nlted freSS SIAN Correspondent
CHICAGO, July 24.-Slightly in
creased hedging pressure and lack
Oh speculative activity weakened
wheat prices on the Board of Trade
today and the finish was a major
fraction lower. Trade was light
and there was no material pressure.
Corn continued highly irregular
with July acting tight and advanc-
ing while September sold of and
December held around the previous
close. It was one of the dullest
sessions witnessed in many months.
Oats receded under a scattering of
liquidating sales.
Cash Prices Off
At the close wheat was q to Y
cent lower, corn was unchanged to
14s cent lower and oats were a to
y cent down. Provisions were
steady to easy.
Liverpool, reporting continental
demand lacking, closed Il to q
cent lower. A story from New
York to the effect that a group of
fasteners were negotiating with
the grain sterilization corporation
for its entire holdings was denied
by President Minor. Cash prices
were unchanged to Il cent lower.
Receipts were ATS cars.
Corn was about steady at the
start, but sold off a fraction as a
result of the low temperatures over
the main producing areas. Reports
from the vicinity of Waterloo, Ia,
indicated firing and no rain for
more than two weeks.
News Is BulIish
Reports from the southern part
Of South Dakota have been running
unfavorable for several days. Prices
were 81 cent lower on September.
but July was 4 cent higher at mid
session. Receipts were somewhat
larger today. Cash prices were Il
cent to cent lower. Receipts were
354 cars.
Oats eased with the other grains
and on scattered liquidation, but
receipts were smaller than earlier
in the week and this checked SELL
ing. The market as whole was
without feature. The market was
Il cent to % cent early. Cash
prices were unchanged to Il cent
lower. Receipts were is cars.

In the Stock Market
~. BY xT Thomson & McKinnonl

NEW YORK, July 24.-Strong in
tlmat1on that the United States
Steel dividend will be cut brought
renewed pressure in the market.
The published steel story, perhaps
inspired, shattered hopes that the
management of the Steel Corpora
ton would maintain the current
dividend and continue prevailing
wage scales.
Considering the fact that indus
try generally looks to the Steel
Corporation for industrial leader
ship, the prospect of policy as
above Indicated had depressing in
fuence.
On the whole, the market re-
ceived the news rather complacent-
ly. Early pressure on Steel had
an unsetting effect on the general
market, but it was not enduring.
Measured by the volume, the
liquidation was not important. How
ever superficial the market may be.
we can not avoid the conclusion
that liquidation of stocks is yir-
tually completed.
The comparative indifference re-
hected in the dullness of the mar
ket, in the face Of recent unfavor-
able foreign developments and do
mestic industrial news, suggests the
Interpretation that such facts COM
ing now to the foreground have
been anticipated. Moreover, they
appear to have been discounted by
the market.
That being true, the market ap-
parently is waiting for a clew to
the future commercial trend. The
present obscurity, we believe, will
give way to greater visibility as we
approach the fall season.

In the Cotton Markets
(By Thomson & McKinnon)

NEW YORK, July 24.-The cot
ton market opened 10 points lower
this morning on poor cables. A de-
cline of IL additional points fol-
lowed on commission houses and
pressure from Liverpool which
seemed to be selling in all the cot
ton markets.
Local traders followed the trend,
but after II a. m. contracts were not
so easy to secure and the market
rallied to $50 for December, which
was the point at which the mar
ket had opened. There was not
much doing in uptown dry goods
circles.
Showers in the eastern belt and
heavy rains in the Mississippi valley
caused apprehension especially as
further showers are predicted for
Saturday. Lack Of public partici-
patton and professional operations
on the short side put the market
back to $40 for Demember in the
second hour of the afternoon.
There was a sharp advance in the
wool top market, which is main
tanned by the Cotton Exchange. Sep
tember was 1880 bid at one time,
the highest price on record since
the market was opened.

BY BEN STERN

THOSE politicians who set them
- selves up as prophets have
spent a busy week scratching the
name of Arthur H. Greenwood from
the list Of Democratic senatorial
prospects. Others have gone so fan
as to draw beside his name ques-
ton mark as the sure-flre cinch to
be reelected as congressman from
the new Seventh district.
And what's it all about?
Why, just this. Here is Green
wood representing the largest lime
stone quarrying region in the ma
ton voting to have the George
Rogers Clark memorial constructed
Of granite.
Treason, perfdy and heresy,
shout the thousands Of Monroe
county residents who gain their
livelihood directly and indirectly
through limestone.
Greenwood's vote for granite is 6
mystery even to his friends. The
only possible answer for his thumb
ing down of the limestone for the
memorial is that he honestly be-
lieves the other material to be the
best.
But did they catch Senator James
E. Watson or Congressman Albert
'Nine-Vote Bert" Vestal of Ander-
son, or Will r. Wood of Lafayette
(all Republicans making such
grievous political error?
Answer in that loud chorus
'They did not"
Neither was Congressman Eugene
Grove, Democrat of Bedford, also
limestone territory, sap.
He knows that those limestone
votes count (when they are per
mited to be counted honestly and
so Gene got on the right side OF
the fence politically.
II 4 =
Now comes word, carefully and as
sidiously spread by Frederick E
Schortemeier. former secretary of
state, candidate for the G. o. P.
nomination for Governor in 1928,
and probably candidate again, that
not only will the granite cost $148,-
900 more than limestone, but that
it is quarried in Canada.
That should make good campaign
material for State Senator William
Hoadley Of Bloomington who is
engaged in the limestone business
and who again will seek the senator
ship.
Things in Monroe county looked
Democratic to Bill until this George
Rogers Clark affair, because Green
wood is very popular throughout the
section and the G. o. P. does not
stand in such a favorable light.
But now all that Bill has to do
is shout Granite, Granted" through
the district and Greenwood will pe
busy explaining.
Some folks get all the breaks.
