j GAINS, SLUMPS MARKET ACTION ONWAR REPORT Pools Slightly Venturesome; Steel 25 Percent. of Day’s Total a New York, N. Y., April 16—On a further increase of operations, con- fined, however, to the recognied lead- ers, today’s stock market added one to two points to yesterday's gains. This advantage was only temporary, prices reacting after short covering had run its course. War news was. mixed. when not ob- scure, but the net result seemed to favor the long account, chiefly be- cause of the market's technical posi- tion. Anothers slump in the cotton market was not without its sentimen tal value. United States steel contributed 25 percent to the day’s total, closing at a slight net gain after having yield- ed a point. Pools were a little more venturesome, especially in minor spec- ialties such as American ice common and preferred, malting common, and preferred, linseed preferred, American can and the tobaccos, but in those is- sues early gains suffered variable im- pairment. Chino was the only metal isues to manifest moye than slight strength, and motors, oils and shippings react- ed one to three points, general motors however, making up the greater part of its 2% points decline. ‘The ntovement in rails was un- usually circumsribed, Reading and Canadian Pagifics featuring the in- yestment group at net recessions of % and 1% points, tespectively. Sales amounted to 360,00 shares. / Spanish exchange at a premium of almost 60 per cent was the only fea- ture of the market for foreign bills. Bonds were barely steady, liberty’ issues tending higher, with moderate reactions in the international divis- ion. Sales (par value) aggregated $4.- 230,000. United States bonds (old is- sues) were unaltered on call. NEW YORK MONEY New York, N. Y., April 16.—Mercan- tile paper, four months and six months, 6 percent.

Corn closed heavy, % to 2%c net lower with May 127 and July 147% to 147%. Oats lost 1 to 1% {| @ Vhe, and provisions 5 to le @ lhe. General rains which will give new- ly planted corn a god start and will put the soil throughout the main por- tion of the belt into fine shape for seeding gave the bears in“corn a de- cided advantage from the outset. Some authorities ascribed part of the weak- ness to unfavorable wer news, but this view met with vigorous dissent. Hedging sales and likelihood that they would assume greater propor- tions attracted much notice and count- ed especially against the July option. Indications pointed to some decrease in acreage, but not sufficient, to affect materially the size of the yield. Ow the other hand, eastern domestic de mand was reported as the poorest. in many months. 4 Weather and crop news had most to do with the downward course of the oats market, Announcement was | not made until after trading hours that No. 3 white. oats had.ben made deliverable at 1%c under standard, and that dealings in new style con- tracts for June and July would be- gin tomorrow. Increased warehouse stocks pulied down provisions. 9 Option Open High Low Closing Corn— May ..127 July ..149 127% 126% 127 149% 17 147% Oats— April ..87% 88% 87% 87% 84 Ye 83% B34 May...
