OPO il Te A r "4 4 STOGK TRADERS ON SDBLNES: MARKET ~ CONTINUES STEADY _ Few of Metals, Including Some Copper and Silver Issues, Are Firm New York, April 9.—(#)—The stock market again was in a rather non- commital mood Monday and most traders and investors appeared to be well satisfied with their seats on the | July sidelines. A few of the metals, including some copper and stiver issues, were fairly firm as future prices for these staples Pointed upward transactions were around the dullest levels of the year. ‘The grains were virtually at a stand- still, along with cotton. Rubber im: proved moderately. U. S. govern- ment and prime corporate bonds were in some demand, but secondary loans were mixed. International dollar rates were narrow. The various shares of Alleghany corp., were active at gains of around 2 points each coincident with uncon- firmed rumors that some sort of a re- organization of the Van superstructures was being considered. Howe Sound, U. 8. Smelting, Kenne- cott and Anaconda got up fractionally to about a point. Strike troubles in- terfered with the motors, Auburn losing 2, Hudson and Nash 1 each and General Motors and Chrysler major fractions. Motor products and Warren pipe dropped a point each. ‘The utilities eased and the rails were hesitant. Many.of the orthodox lead- ers were virtually unchanged. : Except in a few issues, the dullness ‘was marked throughout. The close was irregular. Transfers approximat- ed 900,000 shares. | | CHICAGO Chicago, April 9.—(?)—An unsettled tone prevailed in both butter and eggs Monday. Poultry, however, ruled firmer.

By far the greater part of the deal- ings in wheat were in the nature of spreading between the various deliv- eries and the closing of spreads with other grains. There was little in the general news of the trade to cause operators to take a decided stand on elther side of the market. ‘Wheat closed irregular, % off to % up compared with Saturday's fin- , Bay 86% to %; July also 86% to corn 4% to % advanced, May 49 49%%; July 51% to %; oats un- changed to 1% lower and provisions unchanged to 7 cents down. Reports of considerable damage by green bugs between Oklahoma City and the Kansas line helped give firmness to wheat values. Bulls in wheat emphasized, too, that contract ks of wheat in Chicago were the allest at this time of year since 1926, and that the government crop report Tuesday might have a bullish influence. Above 8615 cents a bushel, however, for May delivery of wheat, scattered selling developed, and had a tend- ency to check wheat market advances. This was the fourth successive day that the trading in May centered largely around 86%. Corn and oats were responsive to wheat price firm- ness. Provisions reflected downturns of {hog values. MINNEAPOLIS MART IS STEADIED BY WHEAT Minneapolis, April 9.—(#)— The grain market here started quie’ Mon- day with cross-current showing in the influential news. However, there was no pressure and after a moderate opening decline, wheat tightened up , | and steadied the rest of the list. The close was practically lower. Trade was light and featureless. oe 4|May wheat closed *: lower, July 1 lower and September 14 lower. Coarse grains showed little change, May and July oats closing unchanged to ‘& lower, May. and July rye both closed % lower and May and July barley finished unchanged. May and duly flax also finished unchanged. Cash wheat offerings were fairly liberal but in ready demand and sold very firm compared with futures. At 16 protein or better the tone was ,| Strong. Winter wheat was in fair to good demand and firm. Durum of- ferings were very light and in quiet to fair demand. Corn offerings were very light and demand sharper for best quality. Oats demand was fair to good, depending on quality. Rye demand was fair to good. Barley tone was firm to strong with demand good for moderate of- ferings of desirable quality. Flax of- feared were fair and demand quiet DULUTH CLOSE Duluth, April 9.—()—Closing cash prices: Wheat, No. 1 dark northern 86% to 93; No. 2 dark northern 85% to 90; No, 3 dark northern 8 to 88; No 1 northern 86! to 92; No, 2 northern 85% to 89; No. 1 amber durum 86 to 1.09; No. 2 amber durum 86 to 1.00; No. 1 durum 85 to 86; No. 2 durum 85 to 86; No. 1 mixed {durum 84 to 1.04; No. 2 mixed 84 to 1.04; No. 1 red durum 84.
