Tribune’s Grain, Livestock and Market Report for Mon., May 4 STOCKS CLOSE FIRM mUDVBIN FINAL TRADING HOUR Coppers Are Heavy But Losses Are Reduced; Sales Under 1,500,000 Shares I ♦ i New York, May 4.—Stocks moved quietly higher in dull trading and made their best prices in the fi nal hour, closing firm. Coppers were heavy, reflecting lower priv-i for the metal, but reduced their losses. Shares rising 2 to 3 net included Al lied Chemical. DuPont. Eastman, American Telephone. New York Cen tral and Union Pacific. U. S. Steel, American Can, Atchison, General Mo tors. General Eclectric and Chrysler were up a point or more, while Au burn soared 15. Sales totaled less than 1.500.000 shares. Issues selling up a point or two em braced a substantial assortment of in dustrials and utilities, and some of the rails. Allied Chemical pushed up more than 4, and Auburn more than 13. Shares gaining moderately in cluded American Telephone, Con solidated Gas, North American, Gen eral Electric, General Motors, U. S. Steel, Bethlehem. Woolworth. East man, American Tobacco “B," Johns- Manville, Southern Pacific, Atchison, Union Pacific and New York Central. Bears did some experimental selling of U. S. Steel and American Can for a time in the morning, but got no where. The death over the week-end of George P. Baker was not unsettling to the financial markets. Heaviness of the copper shares re flected news of considerable demoral ization of the market for red metal and the annual report of Anaconda, showing a deficit of about $24,000,000 after payment of common dividends and the setting up of reserves against the drop in prices of inventories. Despite the still unpromising out look for many industries, Wall Street was able to view the situation more calmly than for several years. In important banking circles, it is stated quite emphatically that troublesome matters have been generally smoothed out, and that the Friday setback was in part a maneuver of bears to cover their commitments at less costly levels. Call money was again firm at 11-2 per cent. )* Livestock SOUTH ST. PAUL So. St. Paul. May 4.—(AP—U. S. D.

North Dakota PROFIT-TAKING IS exercised afib WHEAT’S ADVANCES Rises Made Six Successive Days; U. S. Visible Supply Shows Decrease Chicago, May 4.—(AP)—Wheat ad vanced Monday to about five cents per bushel above last week's bottom level, but reacted on account of profit-taking. This made six succes sive days on which advancer, have been scored. A decrease of 807.000 bushels was shown in the United States wheat visible supply, and Ca nadian reports told of high winds and soil drifting. Wheat closed nervous. *4 to %c higher.

Supplementing the bearish effects of light rain and snow in Canada tending to allay uneasiness over pro longed abnormal dryness were en larged quantities of wheat on ocean passage. The amount of wheat afloat for Europe was 48.056,000 bushels, compared with 46,688.000 a week ago and 34,608,000 at this time last year. On the other hand, crop experts em phasized need of frequent generous downpours both south and north of the Canadian boundary. A leading authority advised from Bradley. S. D.. that conditions looked unfavorable for an average wheat crop in the American northwest and that conditions were worse over much of the Canadian belt. He said only one inch of moisture had been re ceived at Bradley since last October. Com and oats were responsive to wheat downturns. Provisions reflected lower hog values.
