NEW YORK. May 23. The stock
market resumed its hesitant and un
even course today.
Shorts were driven to cover in the
oils, especially Mexicans and the
rails. Several popular specialties.
particularly tobaccos, were appre
ciably higher. Motors and a few
food issues were heavy to weak, some
of the former establishing low records
for the year. Sales amounted to
656.000 shares.
Fundamental conditions over the
week end were not substantially al
tered. Western railway tonnage fig
ures disclosed additional declines and
brokers of that section reported a
deadlock' in the investment situation
and further uncertainty regarding the
business outlook.
The local inquiry for money was
slightly more active and that fact.
coupled with last Saturday's moder
ate deficit of clearing house actual
reserves, tended to stiffen call money.
In the final hour, however, the rate
dropped from 7 to 6', i per cent on the
exchange and ( per cent on the open
market.
One constructive development o
the session was the announcement of
the terms of the new French govern
ment loan. Incidentally, foreign ex
change was reactionary In all Its
branches, sterling falling some five
cents to the pound from Its recent
maximum. .
French and Belgian rates fell 40
points from last week's closing quo
tations and reactions of S to 25 points
were recorded by most other conti
nental remittances. German marks
losing onlv 6 points.
The bond markat including Liberty
issues was at all times irregular.
though changes were mostly trivial.
Foreign flotations were not material
ly affected by the heaviness of inter
national exenange. Total sales, par
value, $10,175,000. -

CHICAGO ECHANGE
CHICAGO. May 23. Highest prices
yet this season were reached today
for the July delivery of wheat. Hot
dry weather and extremely unfavor
able crop reports gave a big advan
tage to the bulls, and induced heavy
buying in which exporters appeared
to be participating. Commission
houses sold freely at times, but the
offerings were readily absorbed.
Opening quotations, which varied
from 4 cent decline to 24 cents ad
vance. with May $1.67'4 to $1.68 and
July $1.27H to $1,284, were followed
oy a moderate general setback and
then a sharp advance all around.
Corn hardened with wheat, hot-
withstanding huge arrivals of corn
here. After opening 4 cent off to
cents higher, including July at 61 T
cents to 62 '4 cents, the market
sagged a little more and then scored
gains all around.
Oats paralleled the action of other
cereals, starting unchanged to 4
cent lower. Jujy 41 to 414 cents, and
later making a general advancer
Provisions were firmer with grain
despite lower quotations on hogs.
