Dullness Prevail
In Stock Market
NEW YORK, April 20. (A. P.)
The stock market was dull and re
actionary yesterday.
Contrary conditions doubtless ac
counted for the marked heaviness of
certain other issues, such as sugars.
These were under intermittent pres
sure as a result of cuts in the raw and
refined products, coupled with ad
verse dividend rumors.
Extreme declines of one to almost
five points accompanied the lethargic
movements of steels and equipments.
Shipings and rails also recorded irre
gular but moderate reversals, the latter
making no response to the proposed
probe of transportation conditions by
a senate committee.
Sales 465,000 shares.
Money rates showed a slight re
laxation, call loans on the exchange
easing to six per cent in the latter partJ
oi me session, oespite runner neavy
withdrawals from the local federal re
serve bank.
The untimatum of the allied repara
tions commission demanding transfer
of Germany's gold holdings to Coblenz
and Cologne probably had some bear
ings on the day's movements In foreign
exchange. Kates on London were
comparatively steady but remittances
to all continental points favored this
center including German marks and
Austrian kronen.
In the bond market -liberty issues
closed at mixed gains and losses and
rails continued to sag. Total sales, par
value, $9,400,000.
Dumping of Wheat
Set Price lown
Chicago, April 20. (A. P.) New
declines in the wheat market yesterday
carries the July delivery down to the
lowest price this season. Liberal re
ceipts and good weather were more or
less responsible. The close was un
settled, 2 to 2c net lower, with May
1.21 to 1.22 and July 1.02 1.03.
Corn finished the same as yesterday
to 1 l-8c'down, .oats off 3-8c to 5-8c
and provisions at a setback of 17c to
55c.
Bears puT stress on the fact that re
ceipts of wheat at primary points
were more than twice as much in vol
ume as a year ago. In this connection
the arrivals at Minneapolis and Duluth

were especinily Scrutinized owing to
changed circumstances likely to result
from pnssage of th emergency tariff
bill by the senate. Warmer tempera
tures desirable to promote growth of
the new crop were likewise of much
advantage to sellers and so also mere
bearish reports from field experts.
Late In the session, however, tjie mar
ket had a little recovery owing to word
of export business believed to total
2.000,000 bushels and destined for the
most pnrt to go to Germany, Italy,
Spain and Eilginm. '
Corn and oats sagged with wheat
but declines were checked to some ex
tent by knowledge that vessel-room to
Buffalo and Montreal had been chart
ered for 1,423,000 bushels of corn.
Considerable liquidation on the pnrt
of holders of provisions was induced
by the weakness of grain.
ItUr Decrease .Noted
ill Shipbuilding
NEW YORK, April 20. (A. P.) A
decrease of approximately 1)00.000
tons in world shipbuilding activity for
the three months ending March 31 Is
rtcorded by Lloyds' register of ship
Ping, in a statement yesterday.
Strikes of ship joiners In Great Prlt
ain, the report stated, are responsible
for suspension of work on 847,000
gross tons there. In the United Stutes
construction of 1.102.000 tons is under
-way, approximately 40 per cent of the
total a. year ago. Total ship building
under way in the world on April 1 Is
given at 6,238.000 gross tons, compared
with 7,179,000 on January 1.
Tank tonnage, the report con
tinues, shows an increas with the
United States leading. Figures for this
country show, 632,016' gross tone, with
Great Britain next, building 6S7.027
tons, and all other countries 131,130
tons.
In general shipbuilding France
showed an increase, where other coun
tries showed a decline. France follow
Great Britain and ithe United States
as a shipbuilding nation, having dis
placed Hollund. '
"Yesterday", the report states,
"France, with 427,000 gross tons
building, has nearly two and one hutf
times the total under way for British
dominions and leads Jupan and Italy
by 133,000 and 75,000 tons, respective
ly." Gustafson Mudo ,
Chairman of Grain ('rowers.
CHICAGO, Ajiril 20. (A. P.) C.
H. Gustafson of Lincoln, Neb., was
elected chairman of the board of di
rectors of tho United States Grain
EVERETT TRUE
Growers' association at a meeting to
day. The directors are In session to per
fect plans for the disposal of their
grain crops through their own agents.
According to Mr. Gustafson the plan
has been in effect In far western states
for some years and has proved suc
cessful. -
"By selling our own crops we will be
able to. eliminate the middleman and
make more money for ourselves and
sell our products cheaper," said Mr.
Gustafson. "We hope to have every
grain grower Join our ranks within
two years."

CHEYENNE, Wye. April 20. (U.
P.) Wyoming prairie dogs arc the
latest victims of illegal booze traffic.
When a sheriff's posse visited the
country west of Cheyenne recently In
search of moonshine stills, members
of the band saw staggering Dralrin
dogs, unable to find the "front door"
of their holes. Investigation showed
that several pints of whiskey had been
cached in various prairie dog holes
and had been broken with tho conxe-
liienee of a spree In dog-town.
