Grain Market

CHICAGO, November IL GP.-Fresh
downturns Of grain prices today fol-
lowed s-point breaks In British ex-
change. Persistins uncertainties con-
nected with the new preferential tariff
were also q bearish factor. Opening
unchanged to Nm lower, wheat after
ward declined all around. Corn started
unchanged to IN of and subsequent
ly underwent q general sag.
With an increasing amount Of hqui-
oation OF December contracts looked
for during the next two weeks, wheat
values displayed but scanty power to
rally from their downward trend.
Meanwhile, supplementing the bearish
rates, were Liverpool reports that sellers
Of wheat under the new preferential
tariff must be responsible for the pay
ment Of duty, or must provide means Of
satisfying British customs authorities as
to the origin Of grain. It was added
that wheat delivered ON the Liverpool
futures market was understood to be
duty paid but that this point was not
entirely clear as yet.
Estimates were current that the new
Argentine wheat crop would total 250,~
00o,000 to $50 200, 900 bushels, indicat-
ing that 5000, 900 bushels would be
available for export Trade authorities
here said this would tend to keep
Europe in complacent mood as to sup
plies. Potential bullish possibilities for
the future, however, were stressed

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, November 17.-Stocks
on the Curb Exchange finished the ses-
sion without much change today. Trad
ing remained dull. At the close such
changes as were noted In leading shares
were on the down side.
Electric Bond g. Share moved ahead
as a result of its unexpected regular
common quarterly dividend declaration
after yesterdays close, though directors
refrained from saying when the divi-
dend problem would be discussed again.
The rate will be acted on annually
instead of quarterly hereafter.

specialties, like Aluminium Co. Of Amer

downward moves preceded the more
general decline that started at the be-
ginning of the second hour.

Special Dispatch TO The Star.
NEW YORK, November 17.-The
steadineSs in United States Government
bonds today somewhat relieved the
effect of heaviness among foreign dol
lar loans and in parts of the domestic
corporation list. The slow but gradual
rise in Treasury issues is assumed to
be related to the debt situation, al
though it is dificult to analyze its pres
ent aspect as especially favorable TO
any group Of American securities.
Reich Issues Sell Of.
The cabinet crisis in Germany caused
some selling of the issues Of the Reich.
The 5las were of about a point and
the Is ia points. German municipal
and corporation issues also were heavy.
Likewise there were small losses In
British and French bonds, while jap
anese 612s on moderate transactions
declined Il. The market in Argentine
loans has so narrowed down that fluc-
tuations are not an accurate guide OF
sentiment toward them. Frequently
losses or gains of 2 points are made
on a single sale.
The Baltimore & Ohio short 4l2s,
the 412s of 1860 and the refunding 5s
were up from one-half to a point. The
proposal of the company to pay 90
per cent of the maturing bonds oy tne
end of this year is one that holders
cannot afford to reject, as It is one
of the most liberal concessions to Sc
curity holders with a maturing obliga-
tion that has so far been offered.
Chesapeake Corporation SIS, Chicago &
Northwestern refunding SIS and Mis-
souri-Pacific Is we're fractionally lower.
Allegheny Corporation IS were OF
point.
Traction Bonds Improve.
There was some improvement in the
local traction bonds. Interborougli
Rapid Transit 7 per cent certificates
advanced a point. Issues of the Oil
companies were steady. Paramount
Famous-Lasly IS had another decline,
after drop of over 5 points Wednes-
day, and were quoted under 90. Tney
sold as low as IS last July and have
been above so this year. There has
been 10-point decline in them In the
last week. The 51as were heavy.
