Cause rncaslness
NEW Y01SK. April (A. P.)
The uneven and irregular. course of
yesterday's stock market was Influenc
ed by conflicting and confusing de
velopments, such as the I'nlted States
Steel quarterly report, the Pennsyl
vania railroad dividend cut and fresh
complications In the German Indem
nity tangle.
Of these, the most Influential' was
the showing made by the United States
.teel Corporation, which fully, con
firmed the general impression of In
creasing slackness In thaj industry.
Steel common reacted an extreme of
two points and most of the so-called
independents made, recessions of two
to four points.
Balls enjoyed a brief upward spurt
at midday on news that the Interstate
commerce commission had ruled in fa
vor of existing Inter-mountain freight
rates, but much of this advantage
was forfeited on receipt of word that
the Pennsylvania dividend had been
cut from six to four per cent.
Professional pressure seemed to be
directed against a number of the high
priced specialties, including tobacco,
subsidiaries, oils, leathers, sugars and
kindred issues suggested a resumption
of short selling at gross declines of two
to 11 points, a heavy tone ruling at
the close. Sales amounted to 800,000
shares.
The money market followed Its re
cent monotonous course, all demand
loans being made at 6 Si P"r cent, that
figure being fully one, per cent over
outside quotations. -
Indications of ease were seen in time
funds, including commercial paper.,
All foreign exchange quotations
were lower, the French remittance
forfeiting all of yesterday's substan
tial advance and Scandinavian rates,
especially Stockholm, breaking sharp
ly. '
Liberty bonds continued to lose
ground. Other changes, domestic and
foreign, were irregular. Total sales,
par value, 9,850,000.
Wheat nulls Overload "
And Prices Sag Ijower.
CHICAGO, April 28. (A. P.)
Wheat bulls overloaded themselves
yesterday and although prices averag
ed higher, most of the time the mar
ket broke at the last. The close was
heavy, 3-4 to 1 l-4c net lower, with
May 1.25 1-2 to 1.25 3-4 and July. 1.04
3-4 to 1.05.
Corn lost 3-8 to,5-8I3-4 and oats
1-8 to 5-8 and provisions 5c to 17c.
Predictions of an enlarging demand
for all grain helped to start the wheat
market upward and bulls showed par
ticular hopefulness that export call
would prove to be robust. It became
known that 400,000 bushels of oats
had been sant into storage here, a cir
cumstance decidedly bearish as to
oats. Ensuing efforts to let go of
wheat holdings made prices descend
rapidly in the final hour.
Word that some corn arriving at
Dutch ports was out of condition had
a depressing effect on the corn mar
ket. Provisions were inclined to sag in
the absence of any adequate support.

Ask Wallace for
New Wheat tirades.
WASHINGTON. April 28. (A. P.)
Modification of federal grades on
spring wheat was asked of Secretary
Wallace yesterday by representatives
of Minnesota, North and South Da
kota on the ground that they are too
technical to be applied by country
buyers and are causing "widespread
discontent" among farmers who think
they uro being discriminated against.
Representatives of the millers oppos
ed modification, declaring difficulties
would be remedied if country elevators
had better trained men.
A Ariimitte of the Minnesota leg
islature presented a tentative set of
grades 'which would provide that any
moisture content over 15 per cent be
made a part of the grade designation,
eliminate the sub-class "red spring"
and abolish grade five in all classes.
Deputy Inspector McGovern of
North Dakota, placed samples of the
various grades of "dark northern"
wheat on the secretary's table and
said that although It was all the same
wheat, carylng only in percentage of
wild peas, on April 20 there was a dif
ference between, grade No. 1 and
"sample'' grade of over 60 cents a
bushel, to the farmers.
Secretary Wallace reserved decision

cerning the possibility of securing "a
reduced railroad freight declared ne
cessary to open the middle west and
eastern markets to them, according to
A. AV. Cooper.- secretary-manager of

sociation, which held a meeting here

ber manufacturers of Washington,
Idaho, Montana and Oregon attended
the meeting. ,
"Practically all of the time was ta
ken up with the discussion of traffic
and freight matters," said Mr. Cooper.
"Tho lumbermen feci that this is a
most Important question to the wel
fare of the lumber Industry of the Pa
cific northwest Wo feel that the rail
roads must and will reduce tho frelrh
rates on northwest lumber to that ex
tent where we can compete with
southern lumbermen."
Vrges Retention
of "Hed-rlng Facilities."
WASHINGTON, April 28. (A. P)
"Speedy" settlement of the agita
tion tor regulation of tho grain ex
changes by enactment of u law Which
would preserve a "broad liquid mar
ket" and retention of the "hedging fa
cilities" was urged before the house
agriculture committee today by F. B.
Wells, a ra.'n dealer of Minneapolis.
Tho demand for "hostile legislation."
he said, "is keeping buyers out of the
market."
Appearing as the first .opponent of
future trading legislation on which
the committee is holding hearings.
Mr. Wells said . sound . legislation
would have a '.'good effect" He ap
proved many features of the Tincher
bill and suggested certain amend
ments he snld'would permit, "cpmpe

the market. ' . ,
