MODERATE DECLINE
Losses of Minor Fractions to
Point Scattered Through
out List.
BY VICTOR EUBANK,
Associated Press Financial Writer.

NEW YORK, April 3.-At the be-
ginning Of the final hour Of trading
the stock market continued along the
reactionary lines patterned in early
dealings today.
Although the general run of shares
stlftened somewhat during the early
part of the afternoon, losses ranging
from minor fractions to a point we're
well scattered among leaders, includ-
ing United States Steel, Chrysler, Con-
Solldated Gas, j. 1. Case. Du Pont
and American Telephone. United
States Smelling retrieved about half
of its early decline, but Coca-Cola ex-
tended its loss to more than points.
The late tone was easy. Sales aggre-
gated $4,000 shares
Leading commodities lent encour-
agement to the indifferent attitude of
stocks. Cotton slipped a trifle and
principal grains were about a stand
of with the exception of corn, which
worked a shade higher in early deal
ings on reports of a better shipping
demand. The corporate bond market
was fairly steady but United States
Governments tilted backward. Foreign
exchanges held about even in spot
rates, but forward commitments re-
f1ected the uncertain outlook for the
remaining members of the gold bloc.
Continuance of the uncertain atti-
| tude Of followers of the smelling
shares was mirrored in another drop
OF nearly points in U. S. Smelling,
although the retreat was made again
IN the face of only small amount of
stock. Other mining issues suffered
less drastically, but number of KEY
lndustrlals yielded a point or moro.
including Du Pont, Bethlehem Stee.
american Tobacco and J. /. Case.
Coca Cola encountered trouble after
its recent run-up to above 200 an6
slipped back more than 2 points.

brought to light yesterday at the

cial meeting of stockholders May 81
| to act on a proposal to cut the par
value of common stock.
Approval by stockholders would re-

Chicago Grain
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO. April 3.-Corn rose about
2l2 cents bushel today to the high
est price level since March s.
Belief prevalent that a tight mar
keting situation might develop in re-
gard to fulfillment of May delivery
contracts for corn was largely respon-
sible for broadening of speculative
dealings in corn, with aggressive buy
ing in evidence much of the time.
Owing to the profitable feeding ratio
between hog and corn prices, con-
sumner use of corn is reported to be
fairly liberal in comparison with the
amount of corn available.
Corn closed strong, 13s-212 cents
above yesterdays finish, May 1914 -3s;
wheat 3s-A up, May 95ls-A; oats
5s-7s advanced, and provisions vary
ing from cents decline to a rise
of 10 cents
