FOURTEEN POINT Gfl SENSATIONAL ADVANCE IX BETH l.EHKH STEEL STOCK. Entire Outstanding; Capital Issue Han Ghansed Hands Several Times Over. Motor Shares Strong. NEW YORK, March 29. -Bethlehem Steel was again the central figure of tho stock market today, advancing to S9. a maximum gain of 14. At its closing price of 87. it showed a net s-n of . or a total of 20 from the low of last Friday. For exactly four weeks the stock has advanced about 35 points and the entire outstanding capi tal issue, par value $14,908,000, has changed hands several times over. Dealings in Bethlehem Steel today were larger than in any other Issue aggregating about 3U,00 shares. Aside from the popular belief that a largo short interest has been put to route, no explanation for the further rise was forthcoming. Traders and the speculative public as a whole Indicated their distrust of the move ment In Bethlehem Steel by their attitude towards the balance of the list. Boms of the speculative favorites rose to new prices for the current movement, but sold off later, Reading and a few other seasoned shares showing net losses. . Trading was very active at times but the total was far below that of the middle of last woek. All of the automobile stocks participated to an unusual extent in the rise, lieneral Motors, Studebaker and Maxwell common and preferred gaining from 2 to T points. Some of the equipment issues. Including Pullman and General Electric, Were in better demand, also the petroleum group, the riae of the latter coinciding with higher price, for the crude and refined products. The new week brought advices of increased production at some of tho leading steei mills and an increase in the export inquiry for copper. Foreign exchango was devoid of especial features, brokers holding off in anticipa tion of 'important developments at London and Paris. Total sales of stocks amounted to Gso, 000 shares. Bonds, as a whole, were strong, but failed to keep'pace with the rise in stocks. There were heavy dealings in Southern Pacific convertible 5s at a slight concession. United States bonds were unchanged on call. CLOSING STOCK QUOTATIONS. Closing Sales. High. Low. Bid.

BUYING SIDE IS FAVORED Prices Turn Strong and A d va nee Over Two Cents I mproved De ma nd From Europe Is Report-cdt-xport Sales of Flour. , CHICAGO, March 2J. Wheat developed surprising strength today, influenced te a considerable extent by the belief that Eu ropean conditions apparently failed to jus tify recent hopes of an early advance. The, marked closed -trans at 1 cents to cents net advance. Corn finished 1U cents to l-igl cents up, oats with a sain of cant to 1 cent, and provisions varying from t cents decline to a riser oi cents. Virtually a complete, change of front took place in the wheat trade rig tit at the start. No definite signs ef any shortening of the war could be discerned and the belief was freely expressed that the selling side of the market had been pressed altogether too hard In the absence of material new changes af fecting the military outlook. Pit offerings were extremely scarca until the Slay op tion approached 51.50. Then profit-taking became effective and a reaction followed, hut a frfesh swell ensued, and the market finished on the upgrade at about the top level of the day. Improved trans-At! antic deimand was reported, the seaboard sending word that export sales included KHMMiO barrels of flour. On the other hand, the decrease of 1,013,000 bushels, in the United States viaibl supply total was somewhat of a disappointment to the wheat bulls. Shorts covored at a lively rate In the com market. It was estimated their trans actions amounted alone to several million bushels. Oats reflected the strength of other ce reals. Provisions were sutained by the action of hoga and grain.

EXPERT TO BE EMPLOYED Seed Will Be Supplied on Time and Convicts Provided lor Farms Near Penitentiary Working Machinery to Be Installed. SALEM, Or.. Mreh 29. (SpccIbI.) Petlnite action waa taken today by the State Board of Control in starting the flax Industry in Oregon in compliance with an act passed at the recent ses sion of the Legislature by a decision to offer growers in this rounty $15 a ton for straw delivered at the Stato Peni tentiary. This is from ?3 to 4 a ton more than the market price in other states, and was offered as an induce ment to farmers to grow flax. Governor W'lthycombe said he was confident that three tons could be grown -to the acre and he believed the price offered would make it one of the state's most profitable crops. The Board will furnish the seed to the farmers for'$3 a bushel, the money to be paid to the state when the straw Is delivered. It was virtually decided to employ an expert in the manufacture of flax to Install the rettinff machinery at the prison and superintend the construction of the buildings necessary. Governor W'lthycombe said he believed John C. Cadv, of Albany, would be a good man for the place. Mr. Cady recently came to Oregon from Minnesota, whore he was engaged in the flax business. It was decided to defer the appointment until all the members of the Board could confer with him. It was decided virtually to employ Kmil Hansett, who has had experience in flaxgrowing in Ireland, to give the farmers certain in structions. He will b paid only when actually at work or during the flax season and his salary probably will be $150 a month. The bill authorizing the ftate to en courage the" growing of flax carries an appropriation of $50,000 and speci fies that the money may be used only for giving employment to convicts. Governor Withycombe said he was anx ious that farms near the prison be planted to flax, so the convicts could work them and be returned to the In stitution at night. It is planned that they do all the work, even to the har vesting of the crop, but the growers must deliver the straw nt tho prison. Because of the fact that It was a new industry Governor Wlthycombo thought expert men should be em ployed to assist in planting, cultivat ing and retting and he believed the Board Bhould obtain such help as soon as possible. He said he had been In formed the machinery and buildings necessary would not be expensive. It has never been the intention of the board to use all the appropriation In the flax Industry and if it does not furnish employment for all convicts other means for doing so will be de vised. The Board plans growing flax on several of the state farms. MOUNTAIN SCHOOLS AHEAD Playground Apparatus Found in Isolated Lane Districts. EUGENE, Or., March 29. (Special.)
