NEW TOKK. Dee. 29. (A. P.) j
Xtock trading was active and broad, a !
firm to strong tone prevading every j
dhision during the early and interme-1
niato periods. Much of the advance.!
which ranged from one to three points
was canceled later, however, on the '
unrxpet ted rise of the call loans to j
0 W per cent.
K(uipments. oils, motors and metals
again were leaders, bat rails, ship- j
pings, steels and food specialties parti
cpated In more than moderate mea- i
sure. Tho strength of sugars was sur- j
prising In view of the lower prices !
quoted for raw and refined products. !
Individual features of strength In-!
eluded American Car. . Presed Steel ;
far, American Steel Foundries. Iiall-!
way Steel Spring, Pullman, Haskell & '
Parker, Mexican Petroleum, (leneral j
Asphalt, common and preferred, Mer- i
cantllo Maine preferred and the cop
pers und kindred issues.
Among rails, transcontinental led
with Heading and other coalers, also
Kt. Louis & Southwestern preferred
and several of the Junior eastern is
sues. Further postponement of divi
dend payments by the Pittsburg, Cin
cinnati, Chicago & St. Louis (Panhan
dle) indicated that earnings still leave
Uch to be desired.
Miscellaneous specialties were rep
resented by textiles, namely American
Woolen. Cluett Peabody, Manhattan
Shirt, and Phillips Jones, together
with chemicals, leathers and motion
picture Issues.
Foreign exchange reacted to tho
more uncertain political advices from
abroad, the Paris rate being the only
allied remittance to show firmness.
Italian bills continued to weaken and
notes to northern and eastern Kuro
penn points showed a mixture of ad
vances nnd declines.
All but one Issue of the liberty group
closed at gains and the general bond
list wus active, strong and brand.
Kallroud bonds, especinly Pennsyl
vania. Heading, llaltlmore & Ohio,
Atchison, Hock Island and Kansas &
Texas made appreciable gains. Sales
aggregated $16,700,000.

192j Crop Condition
Kxpmted To li? Itullish
CiriCAOO, Den. 29. (A. P.) It
was a see-saw market In wheat yester
day. Relief that government figures
on the 1921 crop would he bearish
led to declines, but then the market
rallied owing largely to predictions
that tho government report today on
the 1922 crop would lie bullish. The
close was unsettled at 1-Re net loss to
G-8o gain, with Mny at $1.10 1-S to
$1.16 1-4 nnd July $1.00 to $1,00 1-8.
Corn finished unchanged to l-8c off,
oats at l-8c decline to u like advance,
and provisions varying from 7 cents
Heibnck to a rlso of 10 cents.
Tho majority of wheat traders ap
peared to be expecting 25,000.000 to
00,000,000 bushels Incrense In the gov.
ernment's 1921 crop estimate. Atten
tion centered almost wholly on this
factor during the first half of the ses
sion. As a result, prices showed a
general tendency to sag and it was
nesr mid -day before dry weather com
plaints from tho southwest were ef
fective, in diverting notice chiefly to
the chances that there mlht be a
V-ulllidi showing tomorrow from Wash
ington on the acreage nnd condition of
next yenr's crop. Influential buying
followed and tho finish, although ir
regular, was at about the day's best
