FRUIT FREIGHT
RATE REVISED

The Interstate Commerce Com
mission has found not unreascn-
able or otherwise unlawful rail
road freight rates on fruits and
vegetables. except apples and
peaches, shipped from points in
western and eastern trunk line,
central territories and Massachu-
sets to destinations in southern
territory.
AS to rates on peaches from
Longsdorf, Pa, and points in cen
tral territory to Birmingham,
Ala, and destinations in Tennes-
see and Parrott, Ga, to Asheville.
N. Y, the commission held they
were unreasonable but not un'
justly discriminatory. Reasonable
rates for the future were pre-
scribed and reparation awarded
for the overcharges on past ship
mentS.
The ruling also held as unrea.
sonable, but not unjustly discrimi-
natory, the rates on apples from
points in Virginia, West Virginia
and Maryland to GadSden, Ala,
and Chattanooga, Knoxville and
johnson City, Tenn. Reparation
was awarded for overcharges on
past shipments of this traffic.

FUTURE
NOW SCANNED
CLOSELY
Chartists and Analysts See
Particular Significance in
Imminent Stock Movements
BY THE SPECTATOR

NEW YORK, July 1.-The stock
markets action from this point on
will carry more than the usual
significance, in the opinion of
chartists and other analytical OBJ
servers.
1t is pointed out that price
movements thus far in 1881 have
consistently paralleIed the course
Of the market a decade ago, when
the 1919.1921 decline touched bot.
tom and the trend was reversed.
Turned In August
Industrials used in the Dow
Jones averages made their bottom
for the major decline on August
"a, 1921. BY September 13 re-
covery of about so per cent of
the Immediately preceding decline
was attained.
Thereafter the pivotal indus
trials moved in an extremely mar
row range for more than a month,
and it was not until October Is
that the market had consolidated
its position and was ready 20 re-
sumo the uptrend.
At the high point of the current
recovery, achieved last Saturday,
the market had recovered be-
tween 49 and 81 per cent Of the
maximum losses sustained be-
tween February "a and June 2.
Therefore, to conform with the
precedent established 10 years
ago, q sideways movement at this
time would be fully in order.
Another Theory
Other chart students are ask.
ing whether or not stocks can
continue to move ahead and ex-
tend their advances to approx
mately go per cent of the decline
sustained in the period between
February "a and June 2.
Attainment of this goal would
constitute convincing chart evi-
dence that the bear market
ended on June 2.
On the other hand, a 40 or so
per cent retracement Of the
gains recorded since June would
put the market once more on the
defensive.

And Coppers Join in Move
BY w. s. COUSINS

NEW YORK, July / QN.SJ.
July was ushered in under ex-
tremely dull conditions in the
stock, bond and security markets.
The bears in the stock market
made another effort to push
prices downward on the further
delay In the war.debt parleys, but
after an early dip to slightly
lower levels the whole list firmed
up, with many Of the leaders
pushing above Tuesdays final
prices.
Sales Are Light
Only 100000 shares passed
through in the forenoon, Of
which 100000 shares were sold in
the first half hour.
When the early shake-out
failed to weaken the market, the
bulls took their cue from the
London and Paris markets, which
gained steadily as the session ad-
vanced.
United States Steel, which eased
off to 90 in the forenoon, moved
ahead confidently to 1903, leading
q good rally in the industrials
and specialtieS. J. I. Case climbed
about four points from the fore
noon low. American Can, which
dipped in the first hour to 1082s,
forged ahead to 1921. Bethle-
hem Steel was more than a point
higher at So; Auburn Auto up 52
at 1851.
Rails and COppers Up
Similar recoveries took place in
the rails and coppers, the former
receiving the benefit Of a general
anticipation of larger freight load
ings ct higher rates later in the
year. The May income statements
show the expected 40 per cent de-
cline from the same period last
year.
Stocks of the mercantile and
chain store companies were led
into higher price ground by Wool
worth, which moved up three
points to above II. Coppers
firmed up in spite Of o decline to
812 cents in red metal prices, and
oils sold within a narrow range

per cent lower June is than on

The farm price of corn dropped
4 per cent in the month: beef
cattle, per cent; wheat, Is per
cent; and cotton IL per cent
down. reaching TT cents per
pound. which is 6.3 cents lower
than a year ago, and the lowest
level since February, 1915. Since
