JULY C, 1923.
GAINS ARE COMMON
AT FRIDAY’S SESSION
OF STOCK EXCHANGE
Commodity News Notes
Prices Irregular at First
but Losses Quickly
Made Up.
By STUART P. WEST.
Copyright by The San Antonio Light
New York. July 6.—Prices on the
stock exchange started in with more
or less irregularity today, some of
the leaders dropping off a half point
or so from the Thursday close.
These losses were promptly made up,
however, and for a time thereafter
recovery was resumed quite briskly.
Steel common and the other steel
shares were held back by the expecta-
tion that the July tonnage figures
due next Tuesday will show a con-
siderably larger decrease than those
of a month ago. Oil shares were
also slow to rally due to the fear
that the individual price cuts an-
nounced here and there during the
last day or two will eventually in-
volve another general readjustment
downward. But elsewhere gains of
a point to two points were quite
common.
2 Industrial Alcohol at 47 was un 7
"points from its recent low. The
stock has been doing much better
since the 3-cent a gallon advance in
alcohol prices was announced early
in the week. This advance bore out
reports which have been current for
sometime that the company is doing
an excellent business. Those in
touch with Corn Products situation
say that the selling on Tuesday and
again Thursday morning was of a
very poor sort, representing the
clearing up of a few speculative
holdings which had become under-
mined by the break. The stock thus
thrown over was well taken, so it is
said and corn products shares felt
the benefit today.
Railway stocks gained a half point
or more during the forenoon, but
later became irregular. Southern
Railway and Baltimore and Ohio
and Chesapeake and Ohio gave the
best account of themselves and Cana-
dian Pacific rebounded on the sub-
sidence of the foreign selling which
had been in the market for several
days. There was some demand for
Seaboard Air Line common, following
the sharp recovery in the adjustment
bonds.
Public utilities did better, with
noticeable strength for a time in Peo-
ples Gas, Public Service of New
Jersey and American Water Works
6 yer cent preferred. Philadelphia
company which on account of the
dividend increase making it yield well
over 8 per cent has held better than
most of tile others, rose a point today
and was only a little over 7 points
under its high of the year.
The action of the stock market
today was watched especially close
in expectations that it might furnish
an indication of future trends. At
no time since the secondary decline
in June have prices risen during two
successive stock exchange sessions.
There Ims usually been a Thursday
recovery followed by a Friday and
Saturday decline.
- BOND SALES LIGHT
Prices Changes Small, But Better
Feeling Apparent.
Copyright by The San Antonio Light.
New York, July 6.—Trading in the
bond market was on a small scale to-
day and price changes were not large,
but there was a much better feeling.
Commission houses reported some
small lot buying for private investors
which was regarded as a very encour-
aging development.
There was an especially good de-
mand for the middle grade utility is-
sues, bonds which combine good se-
curity and a reasonably high return.
Examples are Chien go Gas Coke and
Light 5s, Duquesne Light Gs. New
York Edison <> l-2s, Brooklyn Edison
5s, Laclede Gas 5s. New York Tele-
phone Gs, both the 1940 and the 10-1
maturity, and Hudson and Manhattan
refunding 5s. The last named issue
which has been selling very low of
late was up half a point.
I Speculative bonds were slightly
higher, especially among the rails. The
advance was pronounced in tile ease
of the Seaboard adjustments and the
St. Louis-San Francisco adjustment
6s. The same road's income Gs sold
higher as did the Misouri. Kansas &
Texas adjustments. New Hoven bonds
moved irregularly. For the most part
sales were made around yesterday 8
lows, but there was no such outpour-
ing of offerings today as yesterday.
■ The future in the foreign depart-
Lent was the sharp rise in practi-
railj' all French bonds during the first
hour of trading. '
I At one time the French S8 and
71-2s were up about a point and the
Department of the Seine 7s. City of
Soissons 6s. the three French cities
Issues and the Paris. Lyons and Medi-
ferranean 6s shared in the improve-
ments. The gains, however, were not
seld and the bonds sagged backward
hortly after mid-day Amont the
South American bonds. Bolivian Ss
vere notably strong.
| High grade securities, both Failed
States government bonds and "legal
mails were firm. One of the better
second grade bonds, the Colorado &
Southern 4 1-2s was in especial de-
hand. J._____
OIL WELL IMPROVES
Vithersnoon Reports Corsicana Well
I “Better Than Expected."
The Corsicana well of the Wither-
moon Oil Company is better than
L. Witherspoon, head of the com-
Jany, expected, and is now completely
Inder control, according to a letter ro-
lived Friday from Mr. Witherspoon
r John Mcbos, San Antonio business
han, who Is associated with Mr With-
irspoon’s company.
I The Jotter states tint Mr. Wither-
noon had grave fears for the well last
Tuesday, but that it was under con-
ol, and that about 5000 or G000 bar-
fels are being run into the pipe line
aily. It is estimated the well is mak-
the between 20,000 and 25,000 barrels
iday. •
I “I got what I went for and then
me,” Mr. Witherspoon’s letter
lutes.
I The Witherspoon company is com-
sowed of San Antonio men.
■ Mr. Mehos said Hint the company
ths met with success in every field
I has entered, and now owns wells in
Eirando, Corsicana and Somerset
Brhls.
Wool.
Pierre, S. D., July 6.—South Da-
kota wool growers in some districts
who have just completed shearing have
refused to accept 48 cents a pound for
their wool and are storing it for bet
ter prices.
San Angelo, Tex., July 6.—Texus
wool growers in general are fully de-
termined today not to sell the re-
mainder of their clips at present
prices and little is expected to be
put on the market until fall when the
short fleeces will be marketed.
Pottery.
East Liverpool, Ohio, July 6.—The
pottery trade offers an exception to-
day to the general slow down evident
in this territory. Only a few plants
will close for the two weeks usual ac
this time of year for repairs and in-
ventories. Orders are plentiful and
production today is fully up to nor-
mal.
Shoes.
Lynn, Mass., July 6.—A number
of shoe factories in this city which 18
the center of the women's shoe indus-
try, are working at less than half
capacity today. These plants are chief-
ly those which manufacture shoe spa-
cialties. The labor situation is quiet-
er however than for sometime.
Ice.
St. Louis, July 6.—Ice dealers here
have advanced the wholesale price of
ice 50 cents a ton. Prices today
range from $5 to $9.50 a ton. Retail
dealers have increased their price
from 50 to 55 cents a hundred pounds
following a rise in wages to drivers
of $5 a week.
Paints.
Seattle, Wash., July 0.—The de-
mand for paints, oils, varnish and
glass which has been heavy since early
in the year is beginning to subside,
according to C. B. Vanhouten, local
manager for W. 1'. Fuller & Company
the largest wholesalers in these lines
on the Pacific coast. He said today
the June increase over last year had
not exceeded 10 per cent, although
business in previous months had been
30 per cent over that of last year.
Dry Goods.
Austin. Tex.. July 6.—Retail trade
in the stores here is better than at
any time in three years. This is at-
tributed to the fact that while corn
has not been helped the hot weather
has aided cotton. Business in the oil
fields around Brownwood is 100 per
cent better than a year ago.
Rubber.
Akron, Ohio. July 6.—Tire manu-
facturers who have been cutting down
their working forces for the last few
weeks are expected to do no more
pruning. Some of the hands used in
the tire departments have been shift-
ed today to the mechanical rubber
goods and sole and heel divisions.
Coal.
St. Louis. July 6.-The moveincat
of coal for storage is being stimulated
today by a concerted campaign by the
local coal operators. Notices giving
reasons for early buy are being posted
in all railroad stations and other cen-
tral points throughout the Middle
West,

Studebaker.
New York, July 6.—From January 1
to June 30, inclusive, figures just ob-
tained show thin the Studebaker Cor-
poration produced approximately 81,000
cars, as compared with 58,000 during
the first six months of 1922, Sales to
July 1 this year totaled 80.000, as against
less than 60,000 in the same period last
year. Unfilled orders on the books July
1 were for 12,000 cars. Cash on hand
amounted to $16,500,000.
May Department Stores.
The stre ngth in May Department Stores
fitted in with rumors of an advance in
me dividend rate from the current $5 to
$6 A year. However. It is understood
that much of the buying that has oc-
curred in recent weeks has been of a
semi-investment character and that the
business and outlook for May have been
behind 11.
NEW YORK DRY GOODS.
Copyright by The San Antonio Light.
New 1 ork. July G.—Trading in the cot-
ton cloths today was exceedingly cauti-
ous. Prices were decidedly soft in most
constructions and some hands showed a
willingness to shade quotations. Print
cloths accounted for most of what ac-
tivity was in evidence, with 64x60s quot-
ed at 9% cents and 68x72s at 11 cents.
Shesting were irre sular and sateens and
fine combed goods were dull.
The raw silk market was exceedingly
qulet, both here and in Yokohama. Trad-
ing wax of small proportions and prices
were unchanged from Thursday's levels.
BOSTON WOOL.
Copyright by The San Antonio Light.
Boston, July 6.—The large quantities
of western wools arriving on consign-
ment here comprise the only feature of
the wool market here today. It is note-
worthy that consigners have little dif-
ficulty in negotiating advances of at
least 35 cents a pound on these ship-
ments. No changes in prices was evi-
dent in this market, but the strength of
the foreign markets has stiffened the
tone here. Wyoming growers are report-
ed holding out for at least 45 cents a
pound while the Texas flockmasters are
demanding 53% to 54 cents.
NEW ORLEANS COTTON.
New Orleans, July 6.- Favorable re-
ports concerning the weather over the
belt poor cables and estimated sales in
Fall River this week of only 45,000
pieces of print cloths put the cotton mar-
ket lower on the opening today. After
declines of 20 to 21 points, shorts com-
menced to realize in a large way and at
the end of the first hour the trading
months were 2 points down to 17 points
up compared with yesterday's closing
quotations. July fell off to 26.18 cents
and recovered to 26.36 cents: October
tell to 22.84 cents and reacted to 23.25
Realizing by shorts corn ‘nued to sup-
port the market In the face of claims
of satisfactory weather conditions over
the greater rart of the belt and the fore-
cast of little change In the near futures.
Up to the middle of the morning prices
stood at their best. 12 to 17 points over
the closing quotations of yesterday, July
rising to 26.50 cents. At It o'clock buy-
ing was scattered and prices were off
somewhat from the highest, July trading
at 20.37 cents and October 33.02 cents.

CATTLE AND SHEEP
RUNS NORMAL BUT
HOG SUPPLY SHORT
Receipts Show Decrease on
Account of Holi-
day.
Copyright by The San Antonio Light.
Chicago, July 6.—Cattle and sheep
runs were about normal today but the
supply of hogs fell short of the ex-
pected number and values were again
higher. Values for choice light hogs
passed $8 from the start. Only about
8000 hogs were held over from yester-
day, while big killers had nothing for-
warded from other trading points. On
account of the holiday all branches
of the livestock trade showed de-
crease in receipts. Hogs made big
gains in values during the week and
choice went at $11.50 while medium
and good grades showing a gain 11
price compared with a week ago.
Receipts: 3000 cattle; 24,000 hogs
8000 sheep and 1000 calves.
Cattle trade showed up strong after
the first hour or so and some deals
were a little higher. It ruined dur-
ing the forenoon and this made cattle
take less water than on a hot day.
Few choice steers were in the pens,
but there was a good demand for me-
dium and good steers. Last week’s
sharp decline was recovered during
the present week and closing prices
show good gains for the period. Can-
ners and bulls held well, while calves
today were at the high point of the
week. The market was again up 50
cents today, packers paying .*11 for
vealers.
Hogs sold mostly 25@ 30e higher,
choice light stock going at $8@$1e
with n good demand even for plainer
lots of packing hogs. Few of these
went below $6. Big packers were slow
at the start, bat they were good buy-
ers Inter in the day.
Lambs went at steady to strong
values, some choice westerns going at
$10.25. top loads of natives at $15.75.
Big killers took most of the good na-
tives nt $186 $15.50, but city butch-
ers paid up to $16 for a small lot of
prime animals. Few aged muttons
were in the pens and values showed
no change.
OIL SHARES POPULAR
But Other Sections of Market More
Irregularly.
Copyright by The San Antonio Light.
New York. July 6.—Oil shares were
the favorites on the curb exchange to-
day. When it was shown that the
general buying power back of the mar-
ket had picked up considerably, shorts
in the oils began to cover, bringing
about advances of a half-point to two
points.
However, there was no rush to re-
purchase stocks at the higher level.
Rather there was a steady absorption
of offerings from outside : urees, antl
this coupled with the short covering
served to give the market a decidedly
improved tone.
It took little effort to bring about
an advance of two points or more in
Imperial Oil of Canada and smaller
upturns were recorded in such issues
as Indiana Pipe Line, South Penn
Oil, Prairie Pipe Line and Standard
of New York. Prairie Oil and Gas
touched 180, where It was up three
points from the Thursday close. Stand-
ard of Indiana was bid up above
53 1-2 on what apparently was short
covering.
South American oils came in for
their share of the recovery, notably
Creole Syndicate, which was one of
the most active low priced members.
Other sections of the market moved
irregularly. Despite reports of excel-
lent earnings for Hydrox Corporation,
this stock ran into further selling
today. Short covering in Goodyear
Tire brought about an advance of a
half-point, Durant Motors of Dela-
ware was the only motor stock to do
anything, getting up a point or so.

Chicago, July 6.—Wheat closed
strong with gains of 7-8 to 1 1-8
cents recorded. Shorts covered freely.
The market felt the effect of the
i early buying under $1.02 for Septem-
| ber. Early sentiment was mixed with
bears inclined to restrict operations
with prices around the low level of
the crop. The market broke at the
start under hedging pressure and
some selling for northwest account
but the dip uncovered good commis-
sion house buying, causing shorts to
cover.
Corn rebounded after an early dip
and closed 5-8 to 1 cent higher. The
trade was mostly local with big trail-
ers buying on the breaks Pressure
increased on the bulges.
Oats closed 1-4 cent off to 5-8
cent higher; lard was 10 to 12 1-2
cents higher and ribs 2 1-2 to 5
cents higher.
Local cash sales were 3000 bushels
of wheat; 25,000 bushels of corn and
152,000 bushels of oats, including
102,000 bushels to exporters.

TURKS CONTINUE TO
ANNOY AMERICANS BY
RESTRICTIVE RULES
Authorities Practice All
Manner of Indignities
Against U.S. Citizens.
By CONSTANTINE BROWN.
Copyright by The San Antonio Light.
Constantinople, July 6.—The party
of American engineers who were
forced to leave their train at the
Turkish frontier in Eastern Thrace
the other day have arrived in Con-
stantinople, but will be unable to
leave here for their destination in
Russia until they have received spe-
cial permission from Angora. Accord
ing to the British liason officer in
Adrianople, several Americans are
still stranded in Thrace and will prob-
ably return to Sofia and there awai’
permission to enter Turkish territory.
Life for foreigners in Constantinople
is becoming increasingly difficult on
account of the many restrictions im-
posed by the Angora government
which seems to want in that way to
force all foreigners to leave the coun-
try. The latest of these restrictive reg-
ulations was issued today when tele-
phone subscribers were informed that
henceforth the service will be suspend-
ed completely on Fridays.

According to missionaries recently
arrived from the interior, most of the
American hospitals have been closed.
Turkish authorities pride themselves
that they can do whatever they like
with Americans and recently started
inspecting vessels of the American
navy and the Young Men’s Christian
Association under various pretexts,
such as trying to learn if tobacco was
being sold to civilians by the sailors
or admission fees were charged for
the cinema shows.
Such visits to American ships, or
course, are against regulations, since
Constantinople is still under foreign
military occupation and though Amer
lean ships are not here for the same
purpose as are ships of the Allied
navies, they have always been consid
ered to be on the same footing and
have enjoyed the same privileges.

NEW YORK SUGAR.
New York, July 6.—The raw sugar
market was unsettled early today and
while Philippines declined to the basis
of 7.03 for centrifugal on sales of 7000
bags afloat, there appeared to be no
Cuba a available at that level.
The raw sugar futures market opened
seven to fourteen points lower under
liquidation prompted by the easier rul-
ing of the spot market, but firmed up
on covering and commission house buy-
ing with prices at midday about un-
changed.
There was no Improvement In the de-
mand for refined sugar, but a good
withdrawn! business was reported and
there seemed to be less offering from
second-hand holders. Prices were un-
changed at 9.25 for fine granulated.
