EVERY LIBERTY BOND ISSUE IS OVER PAR MARK Impressive Array of Construc tive Developments Fails to Boost Stocks. REDUCE DISCOUNT RATE _ Special to Indiana Dally Times and Philadelphia Public Lodger. BY MONITOR, NEW YORK, June 23.—in spite of an Impressive array of constructive develop ments, tbe stock market Thursday j showed a tendency toward dullness, with the volume of transactions dropping well below 900,000 shares. So far as the stock market was concerned, the reduction In the rediscount rate of the Federal Bank of New York, had little effect, although Its Influence was pronounced In the ! Liberty Bond group where every issue * sold above par. The change In the bank rate was little more than a sentimental factor as the open money market for j some time has been under the official > rate, and to this extent had afforded i practical anticipation of yesterday's 1 action. Os even stronger significance were euch developments as the further stiffening in raw sugar quotations and the announce ment that par loadings for the week ended .Tune 10 showed an increase of 95.000 to the basis of more than 546,000. An In- j (cresting feature of the statement was the gain in coal car loadings to the | lrrgost total since the beginning of the : strike. Again Mexican Petroleum proved the j dynamic feature of the market, with a spectacular rise to 180. more than ten points above the previous close Shorts evidently had ben premature In assum ing that the good news was all out. with the publication of the company's * favorable report on last year's opera tions. New rumors are in circulation, j one to the effect that the stock may be retired at a figure considerably above ] current levels In exchange for the shares of Pan-American Petroleum and other ( consideration. Rails again showed a steady under- j tone, with a distinct forward movement in certain issues, which in nearly every case was the result of special Influence*. The strength of Baltimore A Ohio and Chesapeake & Ohio was a reflection of the heavy coal traffic. Southern Pacific i made a favorable showlr g for May. Hints of important developments pend ing in the affairs of New Orleans, Texas A- Mexico were responsible for good buy ing and a sharp rise In that Issue. Industrials were irregular, and the ad vances were confined mainly to the equip ments and a scattered lot of specialties, prominent among which were Remington Typewriter and International Mercantile Marine preferred. Call money, after renewing again at 3, per cent, hardened gradually to 3% toward the close—Copyright, 1922, by Public Ledger Company. WALL STREET GOSSIP BY MONITOR. NEW YORK. June 23.—Tbe committee on business conduct of the New York Stock Exchange has sent a request to member houses to state their position on Mexican Petroleum at the close of busi ness yesterday. It has been current be lief in the market for some time that the spectacular rise in Mexican Petroleum has been due more to the efforts of a sewed up short interest to cover than to the improvement In the company's po sition. There will be a railroad strike in the opinion of H. E. Byram. president of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul, who is in New York at present, "some of the railway men will go out, but we cannot tell yet how many of the men will obey the edict of the union leaders,' said Mr. Byraw. This is aoout the first admis sion. by a railroad executive that any of the men would go out. previous state ments having been in an optimistic vein. Reports circulated in the Street to the effect that Brier Hill would be coming into the three-company” steel merger was denied flatly by 1. L. Chadbuurne, who said that Brier Hill, Trumbull and the Steel anil Tune Company of America were definitely out of all consideration of the merger and that negotiations had been dropped. The three company steel merger is being hld up for the time being by the fact that so far the Federal Trade Commis sion has not handed down any decision on the plan. The companies are forward ing data regularly as it comes to hand and expects to have all information in by next week. It la expected that the June net of Phillips Petroleum should be $1,250,000 after payment of interest and taxts and depreciation. This would be the largest month in the company's history and would compare with $1,101,390 for May. Continuation of the strong upward swing in the raw sugar market Is bol stering up sentiment on the sugar stocks, and anew high in the raw market was announced. Cuban raws for July delivery have been marked up to 3X4 cents, witn refiners advancing the price of granulated in proportion. At the present time, operations of plants forming the X nited States Rfe"! Corporation are at the rate of 77 to 78 per cent of normal capacity, and it Is predicted that this will be Increased during the next few days. Independent mills are running a bit below the aver age of the leading producers. While the volume of output is up to pre-war lev els. the average of operations In ratio to capacity is held down by the expan sion in plants during the war. It is reported in the market that the Btudebaker Company Is working out a plan whereby the $9,800,000 preferred stock will lie retired. Inastnitcn as the preferred is callable at 125, it would cost 512.250.000 to retire the issue, but it is believed that many preferred stock holders would be willing to trade in preferred for common and score a share in the heavy profits above the stipulated 7 per cent dividend in exchange for their priority rights. However, the present Ktudebnker balances of $18,000,000 should be sufficient to swing the transaction. Expansion of the steel industry is re fleeted in the stronger market for pig iron in western centers. Northern iron has moved 50c to $1 higher, while south ern has been marked up 50c. While it has been considered probable that shippers would hold down business as much as possible before July 1 in or der to get the full benefit of the lower freight rates, which go into effect that day, the Illinois Central loadings for the first half of .Tune do not bear out this theory. Loadings totaled 89.818 cars, as against 84.508 cars the same period in May and 795185 cars in 1921. Despite the firmness in gasoline a .i light oils, the market for bunker oil is much easier and in some quarters F is reported that offering? have been sh; led down to $1.20 per barrel, as against the prevailing price of 51.23V4. Crude rubber on spot has moved ip to 15 cents per pound, with the undi rtone much bettpr A week ago sales weie re ported a full cent below the day's '.'rice. It is a seller's market for the time teing as far as spot stocks are concerned, but tew tire makers or other buyers are evincing any interest in future shipment stocks.-—Copyright. 1922. by Public Ledg er Company. \ FINXNCL* - ' iloctVn-edd FIRST and .-eeond on Indiana and Indianapolis real %nate.

INDIANA DAILI TIMES STOCK MARKET TONE IRREGULAR General Asphalt Is Feature of Final Trading. NEW YORK. June 23.—The stock mar ket closed irregular today. General Asphalt was a strong feature 1 in the late dealings, advancing nearly 3 points to 66. Mexican Petroleum reacted to 176. New Haven dropped over 1 point to 29%. H. R. Mallinson continued in demand, moving up to 28%, anew high for the year. Fractional recessions occurred in United States Steel and Baldwin Locorno- 1 tive. Government bonds were unchanged and I railway and other bonds. Irregular. Stock sales for the day were 778,300 shares; bond sales, $12,389,000. (By Thomgon & McKinnon.) —June 23 If called upon to classify the today's stock market, it would be rather dis- , ficult to do. A few issues in which the short interest' has been over-extended have established new highs, but these issues are so few in number as to make the backwardness of the general list more conspicuous, i Fluctuations were very irregular. In the early trading prices were steady and j business small. A selling movement followed and then another rally, though, during the after noon. the rails .became prominent under! the leadership of New York Central, the | bullish influence being the successful sale of some of the roads securities. During the day, the money market re- j versed itself, call funds being scarce and ’ the rates higher. Tbeiv are some conflicting influences underlying this market Rnd these will probably tend to keep the market in an uncertain position. Sentiment generally is optimistic, and, since the recent decline, there has been a distinct tendency toward tbe enlarge ment of the public account. This may soon become an important, factor again, especially If the existing i and impending labor troubles are not, adjusted. And Incidentally it would be well to keep close watch of developments In ' Europe, where there are some ugly pos sibilities in store if some adjustment Is not made of the conflicting national in tereats. We are of the opinion that it would be a mighty good business policy to be on the lookout here and keep lines within the bounds of safety. TWENTY STOCKS AVERAGE.

(By Thomson & McKinnon.) —J uue 23—- Wheat—Liverpool showed considerable strength today, because of scarcity of spot wheat and small shipments from Australia This news was reflected in ; our early market, but thereafter prices responded to claims of heavy rains in the Canadian Northwest which suggested j the possibility precipitation this side the ; border. It was also a. fact that the for- ! elgn demand was not urgent, while the country sold the new crop on the ad vance in prices. The export business being done is for nearby shipment and mainly of Manitobas, there being very little doing in new crop United States wheat from which It follows that im porting countries are not impressed by | the heat in the Southwest. It Is’ begin- ! ulng to develop that the reduction in total yield In the Southwest by heat is I not going to be as large as expected, j It seems, also, to be a fact that the major } portion of the spring wheat belt has suf 1 iicient moisture for some time to come, j We are inclined to feel that Ihe retro | gressiori of the crop to date has been j represented by the action of the mar 1 ket. Therefore, the rather unimportant ! foreign demand and the tendency of 1 country offerings of new wheat to in- ! crease will have to be overcome by ad- j verse reports from spring wheat terri tory If prices are to maintain their pres- j ent level. We also feel that it lb nut yet time to be firmly convinced of the future course of the market. Corn and Oats—Poor outlook for the oats crop and an absence of rain over the corn belt have prompted a rather gen eral demand in both these markets, but realizing sales were encountered In corn In fairly large volume and in oats suf ficiently large to fill all demand. We maintain our feeling there must be con siderable prospects o? a short crop of oats. This belief is based upon the fact that complaints have come from a very wide territory. This heing so, we would not he surprised to see still higher prices in the future. Corn is ch*cidedly more problematical. It Is hardly reasonable to expect that any great damage has been done at this period of the growth, j tiut ft is admitted rbat a continuation of j heat and drought would be decidedly I detrimental. We view corn as 11 weather | marker and therefore uncertain. . Provisions —There was not much pres I sure on the provision list In response to * the easy tone lit hogs. Domestic trade on both meats and lard. Is normal and It Is believed that this demand will broaden later in the season. It Is also expected tha: ’he present run of hogs will be finished within the next two or three weeks. CHICAGO GRAIN TABLE. --June 23 WHEAT— Open. High. I.ow. (’lose.
