ifiEND OF STOCKS
AGAIN DOWNWARD
Selling Not as Heavy Today.
Seasonal Issues Do Fairly
Well—Steel Off.
B \ STI ART I*. WEST.
Dispatch to Tlie Star.
NEW YORK. December 11. —Tbe
.tendency of slocks was downward
again today. Althouci there were
no violent declines, prices slipped
nway rather easily in many direc
tions, and as a result the whole list
presented a heavy appearance.
Seasoned issues among the indus
trials and rails were fairly well sup
norted for a while, but the more spec
ulative stocks were distinctly under
pleasure from the outset.
Oil Shares Again Weak.
The oils continued one of the
. weakest groups. The market was
'ignoring entire!} the surprisingly
good tonnage figures of the United
States Steel Corporation. Profit-tak
ng increased as traders acted on the
theory that stocks could be bought
to better advantage at lower levels,
and short selling played more of a
’ part.
There were a few exceplions to the
! downward swing. One was American
Bosch Magneto, which was bought on
reports of the new radio device which
lie company lias perfected. Another
was American Water Works, and still
another May Department Stores.
Still Off Three Points.
The weakness of United States Steel
was the most formidable influence
against the market. The stock was
off over 3 points from where it was
Felling when the monthly tonnage
figures .came out, and these were
admittedly as favorable as expected.
Selling of the oils continued very
heavy', but there was no fresh trade
news in connection with it. The pub
lic had bought a lot of these stocks
■on the idea that they would have to
participate sooner or later in the for
ward movement. What occurred to
day was more selling of the disap
pointed character.
Pacific Oil broke well below 50.
Cosden, around was within little
more than a point of its extreme low
of the year. Texas Company was
off over a point, and Houston Oil yvas
very weak. The selling took in the
Pan-American and Pure Oil.
Railroad shares Weak.
The termination of the boom in the
railway shares was further empha
sized. Atchison yvas off more than
a point, and Southern Pacific pretty
much the same. The weakness in the
low-priced non-dividend payers was
pronounced, especially in such stocks
as Chicago Great Western preferred,
M. K. and T., Wabash and Kansas
City-Southern. The last named was
off over 3 points.
As more people were attracted to
May Department Stores stock on ru
mors of a stock dividend and an in
crease in the regular cash rate, the
stock rose sharply' again to much its
highest for the year, across the 110
level. The Street was talking about
a 30 per cent stock dividend and the
raising of the regular cash rate from
J 5 to $7 annually on the entire new
capitalization.
Hrokerage Advices.
The morning stock market letter of
a prominent wire house which has
been right on the financial situation
since before the elections and which
was one of the first to cal! attention
to the danger signs in the recent over
speculation, today advised clients to
“take some profits" though it devel
oped there was no occasion for turn
ing bearish.
American Bosch Magneto ran up
briskly on discussion of the company's
new device for supplying current for
radio sets. After getting up about
8 points above the previous day’s
Close, however. Bosch Magneto met
ljuite a bit of stock and fell back.

BV GEORGE T. HUGHES.
Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, December 11.—A fair
ly sharp reaction in United States
Government loans was the feature of
the day in bonds.
Treasury 4%s were the weakest,
dropping below 105. bower prices
were also recorded for the first, sec
ond and fourth 4%5. The third 4%s
were relatively steady. It is this
issue that is exchangeable for ths
new long term 4s.
It was announced in Washington to
day that the books for the exchange
will be kept open until December 30.
Total of cash subscriptions to be ac
cepted will be about $250,000,000.
There was no quotable change In
money rates to account for the selling
of the Liberties nor did it have much
effect upon the high-grade rails.
C. A O. >%« Dead Hails.
Chesapeake and Ohio convertible 5s
were the leaders among the active
railway Issues. They ran up above
104 with a gain of more than a point
in sympathy with the. stock. The
general tone of the speculative bonds,
however, was heavy. This was true
of St. Louis-San Francisco Income 6s
and of the Seaboard Air Line bonds
generally.
For a time Erie bonds were strong
The argument seems to be the ap
proval of the Interstate Commerce
Commission of the Missouri-Paciflc-
New Orieans-Texas and Mexican deal
foreshadowed an Indorsement of the
Nickel Plate combination, which in
cludes the Erie.
The same conditions were preva
lent among the tractions, Chicago
Railway 5s falling away sharply from
the previous close. At one time today
they were down six points from the
recent high.
Argentine Hands Strong.
In the foreign group the strong
feature was the new Argentine 6s,
which continued to sell at a premium.
The German 7s were also firm, but
French la-mis sagged Reports about
the expected Greek loan put the price
at SS and coupon rate 7 per cent.
Today's new Issues included $4,-
009,000 Murray Body Corporation
6%5. due 1934, to yield 6.70 per cent;
J 2,500.000 Georgia Light, Power and
Railways three-year 6 per cent notes,
to yiejd 6.20 per cent, and $3,266,000

COTTON QUOTATIONS
CHANGE BUT LITTLE
Failure of Goods Market to Pick
Up Holds Back Price
Advances.
By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK. December 11. —The
cotton market opened steady today at
unchanged prices to an advance of
11 points on covering and Liverpool
buying, prompted by tbe steady rul
ing of the English market.
January sold up to 22.90 and March
to 23.28, or 8 to 9 points net higher
on the early demand, but prices soon
turned easier under commission bouse
realizing or liquidation. The latter
was supposed to be partly due to
disappointment over the failure of
demand to develop more rapidly in
the cotton goods market. Helling was
restricted, however, by claims of a
firm spot situation in the South.
January sold off to 22.77 and March
to 23.15, active months ruling about
2 to 6 points net lower at the end of
the first hour.
New Orleans Quotations.
NEW ORLEANS. La., December 11.
—The cotton market opened quiet
hut steady, with little disposition to
trade. As Liverpool was better than
expected, first trades showed small
gains and January advanced to 23.18
right after the call. March traded at
23.22 and May at 23.43. After this
small gain of 8 to 10 points the mar
ket turned easier and soon was trad
ing 1 to 2 points below yesterday’s
close.
CHICAGO GRAIN PRICES.
CHICAGO, December 11.—Wheat
prices showed a downward tendency
today during the early transactions
influenced more or less by lower quo
tations at Liverpool and by selling
here to realize profits. For at leas*
the time being, buyers showed a no
table disposition to await setbacks
before taking hold. Besides, the move
ment of new Argentine wheat was
said to be developing volume earlier
than had been expected. Opening
prices, which ranged from >4 to %
lower, with May 1.65% to 1.66*4, and
July 1.45% to 1.45%, were followed
by a material further decline.
Rain in parts of Argentina had a
bearish effects on the corn market and
also on oats. After opening at %
to 1 off. May 1.28 to 1.28%, corn con
tinued to recede.
Oats started at % to % decline.
May 63%10 63%, and later showed an
