FRIDAY, THE 13TH:
DEAD ON 'CHANGE
New York Stock Exchange Has
Dullest Day in Many
Months
CANADIAN GROUP IS STRONG
Renewed Rumor of Wabash Con
trol of Rock Island Jumps
■ Former's Issues
(Associated Press]
NEW YORK, , May 13.—Idleness and
neglect eclipsed 'all signs of Interest In
the stock market' today. Some of tho
lighter minded of the trading frater
nity found 110 i better explanation for
the abstention from the market than
the fact that It was Friday, the 13th.
The influence of the London situa
tion on speculative sentiment was in
creased by the evidence of a hardening
money market at that center.
The foreign exchange market was
rather disordered and fluctuated with
violence at recoveries from the recent
low points. The more authoritative
reports of the large volume of Ameri
can bonds being placed abroad were
without influence on the market. It
was said that this was due to provis
ion for deferred payments on some of
these subscriptions, and consequent
postponement of the offerings of ex
change bills against the payments.
Preliminary estimates pointed to an
other large gain in cash for the week
by the clearing house banks.
The money market showed no change
in conditions.
Wide movements in a few Individual
stocks supplied the' only features of
Interest in the market. The sharp rlso
in Canadian Pacific was coupled with
reports that a disbursement of profits
out of land sales was intended. Wa
'bash was affected again by revived
reports of control passing to the Rock
Island interests. Texas ft Pacific land
trust certificates were run up on a few
transactions for no other reason than
a report that they were being bought
by the trustees.
The halt in speculation was due par
tially to the inconcluslveness of crop
conditions. Reports of Insect damage
to -winter wheat and to the low tem
peratures In the southwest were noted.
The week's exports of wheat expand
ed more than a million bushels over
those of the week before.
The bulge in the Canadian group
pulled prices up in the latter part of
the day, but the movement was incon
clusive, and the day's net changes were
mostly trivial.
Bonds ,were irregular. Total sales,
par value, $1,843,000. United States
bonds were unchanged on call.

Special service to The Herald by J. C. Wil

:'reet. Los Angeles.
CHICAGO, May 13.—Wheat pivoted around
lay's closing, ranging up ajid down
ie for July and !4o for September until
noon, when the entire list ranged sharply
higher. Nervous : lions oovored, the earlier of
ferings having been Bteadlly absorbed on the
weak spots. The market has given evidence
that it was oversold on recent declines. News
of the day has been decidedly against present
values but the bis concentrated holding has
been materially helped in It! position by
heavy buying by large local speculators, who
have absorbed a great deal of wheat today,
thus accentuating the congestion and making
shorts uneasy. It Is raining today in western
Nebraska, Kansas and Texas, decidedly favor
able for the growing wheat, »nd thr weather
Is warming up northwest, where growth above
ground is reported slow as result of the cold
weather.
corn started strong on open buying by the
leading wheat longs, but weakened later on
pressure of May delivery by the cash and ele
vator concerns. Quite a number of longs un
loaded. The market rallied somewhat from
low I'oints, Influenced by the late wheat
Oats has devel id a rather heavy tone to
day, despite the advance In wheat. Crop pros
pects are reported excellent. Country telling
some, but local elevator concerns are selling
more. Receivers are expecting a larger run of
oats next week.
Provisions scored a fair advance. Packers
have been the best buyers of product, but the
market has been a narrow one and neither
the buying nor selling has been important.
