NEW YORK, Oct. 19.—Stock prices displayed a steady tone in to- day's market after an early attempt to unsettle the general lst by heavy offerings of special shares had met with falure. The buying, which eame largely from professional source was influenced, in part. by easier money rates. Salea approxi- mated 600,000 shares. NEW YORK, Oct. 19—Mitxed Price changes took place at the opening of today’s stock market with the usual industrial leaders displaying a firm tone. Shippings and merchandising issues were again in good demand while heavi- ness again cropped out in the rub- ber and certain ofl stocks, particu- larly the Pan American issues. Willys-Overland preferred jumped 3% points. United States Rtibber common and preferred, Keystone tire and Pan-American B, broke below their previous low levels of the year. Good buying support came into the market la and the genera! lst was pointed upward before the end of the first hour, gains of a point or more being recorded by Marine preferred, Marland, Davison Chem!- cal, May Department tSores, Fam- ous Players, and New York Air- brake, Foreign exchanges opened steady. Failure of the selling campaign directed particularly against the rubbers and Pan-American tasues to attract outside selling nfluenced some buying for the long account with the shorts also displaying an inclination to reduce outstanding contracts. Gains as a rule were not of much consequence in the case of the recognized market leaders but sev. era! of the shippings, cheap olls. foods, independent steels, tobaccos and chemicals moved up 1 to 2 points, High priced merchandising shares were in demand, Woolworth advancing five points to 264 a new high, and Kresge moving up 10 points and General Baking was up 3% points. Call money opened at 4% per cent, Popular treading stocks forged slow'y upward in the afternoon a number of railroads and industrials establishing overnight advances of one to two points. The Pan Amert- can shares made up all of thelr ear- ler losses and the rubbers also re- covered partially, The closing was firm. Further short covering and an apparent ces- sation of necessary liquidation car- ried the leading shares elight!y higher in the late dealings, —————___. Flax.

CHICAGO, Oct. 19-—With tall current about likelihood of increased imports of Canadian wheat tnto the United States, duty paid, the wheet market here showed a downward tendency today during the early dealings. It was asserted that at prevailing prices of flour millers as far south as Kansas City could tm: port’ Canadian wheat at a profit. On the other hand, firmness tn the corn market exerted a steadying influence on wheat values. Wheat opening prices, which varied from unchanged figures to %@%c lower with December 1.05 to 1.05% and May 1.10% to 1.10%, were followed by a moderate general decline and then something of a rally. Subsequently, the outlook for Rus- sian competition recetved further notice, and the market droppéd under persistent selling on the part of commission houses that recently were active bu The close was heavy, % to 1%c net lower, Decem: ber 1.044@1.04% and May 1.09% to 1.09%. Corn and oats showed only tran- sient setbacks as @ result of tm- proved weather conditions. Scarcity of corn for immediate delivery was a handicap to bears. After opening unchanged to %e lower, December 76% to 77, the corn market sagged ® little more and then recevvered to about yesterday’s finish. Later, the corn market weakened when the wheat market dropped near the end of the day. The close was heavy, % to 1%@1%o net low- er, December .755%@% to .75%. Oats started unchanged to %eo lower, December 42%, and efter a further decline rallied with corn.
