FRIDAY, AUGUST 19, 1921. MIDWEST DRILLS TWO WELLS 70 TOP OF SAND IN SALT GREEK Qver 300 Other Wells in Various Stages of Opera- tion by Same Campany in Big Field; Mahoney Dome Test Held'Up by Deep Fishing Job’ Out‘of the 85 wells which ate being drilled by the Midwest Refining company in the Salt Creek field, only two were com- pleted to the top of the Second Wall Creek sand during the past week. These wells are not listed as completions because they have not been drilled into the oil. Several of the new holes which have been started are making good progress. EARLY MARKET TRADING LIGHT Losses Execed Gains on Open- ing Sales; Steels and Equipments Lower. i EW YORK, Aug. 19.— Renewed fferings for both accounts, to which yeign interests were reported con- tors, precipitated additional re of 1 to 3 points among leading today. Sales approximated qocks shares. The closing was 450,000 heavy NEW YORK, Aug. 19.—Trading was unusually light at the hesitant opening of today's stock. market,. but Josses exceeded gains. Steels, equip- ments and motors again were under aciling pressure. Crucible, Bethichem, Baldwin, Pullman and Studebaker lost large fractions to a full point. Union fag and Paper was heaviest of the specialties, falling 2 points. Sugars also were reactionary. Famous Play- ¢rs, Mexican Petroleum and Industrial Alcohol were firm to strong, the lat- ‘er making a slight advance notwith- fanding the 50 per cent divident re- duction. Although call money opened and re- tewed into next week at 5% per cent, rices suffered further irregular im- Gcweet during the mornin; Amer- ican Can, General Electric, Harvester, Great Northern Ore, Westinghouse, Inited States Rubber, American To- . and Retail Stores reacted 1 to 2 points, and selling of Pullman con- tinued. The entire sugar group was heavy, notably Cuban Cane preferred and American Linseed fell 3%. In- Gependent steels made further conces- $ions on reports of price cutting in the trade. Rails and oils hardened be- fore noon. f Money and Exchange. NEW YORK, Aug. 19.—Prime mer- ae- ” cables, ~ Belgian “Francs—Demand, cables, 7-56. < Guilder—“Demand, 30.99; $1.02.
