Apples Fairly Steady.
The apple markets have shown an
irregular trend for some time, but the
average on leading varieties has moved
slightly downward rather steadily since
the first Of the year, although this Is
the season when apple prices sometimes
gain little with the progress OF the
cold storage period. A mild Winter has
leSsened the demand to some extent and
injured quality of fruit not In storage,
forcing the marketing of some lots in
larger volume than expected. Such
varieties as the Greening, which are
rather scarce, have held prices quite
well. They are selling at 30 cents to
SIPS a bushel in Eastern markets. The
barrel pack brings 50 or more, unless
showing scald injury. New York
Baldwins range IS cents to 81 per

Mcintosh topped the market at 81 per

CURB SHARES RISE
IN HEAVY MARKET
Gains of Fractions to Six
Points Scored in Strong
Market.
BY JOHN A. CRONE.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, February ia brisk
opening on the Curb Exchange today,
which was featured by gains ranging
from fractions to six points, was main
tanned throughout the session.
Market leaders like Electric Bond &
Share, Middle West Utilities. United
Light g. Power A, and Cities Service
moved up fractionally as Nationwide
investment buying orders and short
covering orders were received in in
creaSing amounts.
Foreign shares chiefly British and
Canadian, featured early dealings. They
we're replaced by pipe line stocks. which
in turn we're overshadowed by the
movements in motors. While the latter
we're moving forward the oils started
upward and were trailed by the aviation
Issues Then buying became more gen
eral N public utilities and spread to
metals, specialties and investment
trusts.
Approval of American steps taken to
end the worldwide depression was
mirrored in London Friday and was re-
f1ected in opening quotations there to-
day Advances were scored at the OPEN
ing here in such overseas issues as
Brazilian Traction. Woolworth, Ltd,
and Ford Motor, Ltd. The Ford stock
was aided by the announcement of the
new Ford models and the recall OF
workers to plants making parts for Ford.
These developments more than offset
the omission Of Ford Motor of Ger
many's dividend.
Crude oil pipe line deliveries by 10
companies formerly in the Standard
Oil group totaled 9.894.236 barrels in
January, against 10.656.207 in Decem-
Der, but these statistics were set against
some favorable earning reports of indi-
Vidual oil carriers. National Transit
opened up fractiOnally in response to its
1881 income statement showing earn
lngs of Sl16 a share, against $l20 in
1880, which was better than anticipated.
Eureka Pipe Line reported $4,23 a share.
against "a cents in 1880. Net profit of
Southwest Pennsylvania Pipe in 1881
was $155,498. against $l13,684 in 1890
On the heels of the move in pipe
lines came an advance in the oils which
lifted Gulf Oil up points.
Cord Corporation moved up more
than a half point in sympathy with
the rise OF Auburn Auto. Meanwhile
Ford Motor Of Canada A and B shares
rose about half point and Durart
Motors showed signs of activity
Aviation issues such as E. w. Bliss
General Aviation and TranScontinental
Air Transport we're up slightly. Metals
moved forward with Aluminium Co of
America in the lead. Active silver
dealings lifted Bunker Hill-Sullivan a
shade. Coppers displayed increased de-
mand at higher quotations. despite the
fact that the red metal was not on the
proposed British free list.

members of special groups.
THE president said he was glad
that they had determined to pre-
sent their proposals to the congress
| through appropriate committees
rather than to repeat the scenes
that occurred in Washington during
the last spring and summer. The
president said that he was pleased
they were not presenting him with
petition which had been re-
ported in the press, as 1t contained
statements offensive to the dignity
of the office of the presidency.
He said he was glad they had
decided not to present it at the
White House. He said that every
group in the United States was
free to present it's views on every
public question and they no doubt
would be given every facility In
expression of their views to the
congress.
1.-The petition addressed to the
president purported to contain
some ideas in what should be done
in the way of legislative and adj
ministrative action. General Hines
was present and Captain Smith
presented the envelope containing
the paper to General Hines.
General Hines informed them
he would be glad to go over details
of their suggestions if they cared
to come over to see him."
The petition concluded with this
statement:
I'VE the assembled representa-
tives of the b. T.. F., do hereby
severely censure you and those of
your administration who took part
in and the means used in the
forceful eviction of the B. E. f.

FINISHING BITS
ON POST OFFICE
Flagpole Set Into Position
To=day-Lettering Next
Week
STURDY BUILDING

The Browning" feature of the
new federal building on Grand
street was hoisted to it's position
of outstanding prominence today.
1t Is sectional length of iron
piping which is to serve as flag
pole. Another extension is to be
added to the present arrange.
ment before the eagle or golden
ball or whatever ornament the de-
signer has in mind is placed in
position. 1t will take nothing short
of full-sized hurricane to cause
the pole to bend or yield an inch
of space from it's location.
The pole was drawn up through
the interior of the building to the
roof and then raised into a heavy
base. Old Glory will not be or
duty for some time yet, assuming
that the contractor will wait the
completion of the building before
raising the flag. Considerable de-
lay has been experienced due TO
labor difficulties. The progress Of
the building is considerably be-
hind schedule. 1t is not expected
to be in readiness for occupancy
until some time in February CT
March.
The next bit of work that awaits
public interest will be the lettering
that will grace the marble width
of the structure informing the
public that it is the United States
pOstoffice building. Many in.
quiries have been made as to the
plans of the architect for relieving
the white baroness of the upper
front of the building. The answe:
will be in evidence soon.
