TIIE MORXIXG OKEGOXIAX. WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 28, 1920 21 EXCHANGE FALL IGNORED INDUSTRIAL SHARES AXD SPE CIALTIES ADVANCE. Market Closes Strong in Spite of Minimum Rates Quoted on Remittances to Europe. .' KW YORK, Jan. 27. The noteworthy feature of today's listless stock market was the absolute indifference manifested by its firm to strong tone to the further demoralization of the international credit situation. Foreign exchanges again were in the throes of unsettlement, rates on London and all principal continental points drop ping to levels of impairment never before recorded. The extent of the collapse may be' guaged from the fact that it encom passed most of the so-called "neutral" countries, including Scandinavian centers hitherto relatively exempt. The further crash was again ascribed more directly to the policy of credit contraction upon which the federal reserve board recently embarked. - Stocks most conspicuous since 'last Sat urday's unexpected rally were again .n the foreground, especially steels, equip ments, motors and oils. Other features of strength Included food and chemical issues, metals, shippings and tobaccos. The railway list ceased to exist, dealings in that quarter being of the small est proportions. United States Steel approximated its highest quotation of the last fortnight at a fractional gain, but yielded leadership to a few other similar issues. Sales amounted to 700,000 shares. Bonds failed to reflect the general strength of the stock market, liberty is- ues and internationals easing variably. Total sales, par value, aggregated $12. 50,000. Old United States bonds were unchanged on call. CLOSING Am Beet Sug. .Am Can ..... jLtn Jr & Fdry Am H k L ptd Am L,oco .... Am Sra & IUg Am Sugar Rf, Am tuiu Tob.

Demand for Commodities Exceeds Possibility of Providing Supply. Export Buying of Oats. CHICAGO, Jan. 27. Pirmncss developed in the corn market today after an early decline.

The close was steady, at yesterdays finish to President Wilson was ursine a $150,000,000 loan to central Europe and the near eut was also regarded as bullish. Oats were steadied through buying for houses with seaport connections. Provisions averaged lower in sympathy wtih exchange.
