United States Steel, Bald- win and other industrial leaders reached new high levels on the ™ovement. Sales approximated 1,- 150,000 shares, NEW YORK, Nov. 8.—A moderate demand for oll shares featured the firm opening of today’s stock mar- ket. Initial changes as a rule were small. Congoleum advanced a half to 16%, a new high record for the year. The upward movement continued through the earty dealings with food, leather and motor shares assuming the leadership. Maxwell A jumped 4% points and gains of 2 to 3 points were recorded by Famous Players, American Tobacco B, Market Street Railway preferred and second pre ferred, Tidewater Oll, American Hide and Leather preferred and Central Leather preferred. Foreign ex- changes opened firm. The market broadened as trading Progressed, gains of a point or more being registered by more than two Score issues before noon. The strength and activity of several minor stocks suggested a rewump- ton of pool operations in those issues. Buying was helped by the GRAINS RALLY IN CHICAGE Early Decline In _ Wheat Wiped Out by Climb In Late Trading CHICAGO, Nov. 8—<Although tho wheat prices were on the down grade most of the time today, the market scored something of an ad- vance just at the finish. The fact that the ogrn market had reached a new high price recor for the season was chiefly responsitfe for the late upturn in wheat. Closing figures for with December $1.06% to $1.06% and Mmy $1.11% to $1.11\. CHICAGO, Nov. 8—With Liver- Pool quotations showing a decline and with predictions current that the United States visible supply total on Monday would show a Uberal increase, the wheat market here underwent a decline today dur- ing the early dealings. British plans for tariff measures likely to interfere with United States trade were construed as a bearish factor, although wheat is expected from the proposed action. On the other hand, corn strength tended to check wheat price downturns. The open- ing, which ranged from % to Ke lower, with December $1.05 to $1.05% and Many $1.10% to $1.10%, was followed by a further cetback before the market showed power to rally. In the final dealings, the wheat market reversed its action and rose with corn, Persistent buying om the part of comminsion houses together with smaliness of receipts a lift to corn and oats. December corn increasing optimism of commission house mark tters. Many shorts who have been contesting the ad- vance, were foreed to cover during the morning, some sharp gaine re- sulting from their scramble for stocks in @ thin market. Maxwell Motors “A,” Brown Shoe, Strom berg Carburetor, Market Street Rail- way, second preferred and Congo leum extended their early gains to between four end six points and Market Street Railway, preferred, 66%. Call money opened at 5 per cent Stocks whose movements orii- narily exert a dominant influence on the remainder of the list were in favor in the afternoon especially American Can, Studebaker, Bald- win, Gulf States Steel and U. 5. Steel, the last mentioned rising to 94%. Notable advances continued to be made in the less active shares Stromberg Carburetor extending its gain to 7%, while United Raihvays and Investment preferred rowe 6%. The closing was strong. The bul- lsh demonstrations were continued through the late dealings, many In- dustrial shares showing net gains of 3 to 7 points on the day. —— ‘TOWER’ TALK ‘W. HL Lovesy, purchasing agent and traffic manager of the Utah Ol] Refining company at Salt Lake City, is in Casper today. He will leave tomorrow for Thermopolis from where he will go to the com- pany’s test well on Black Mountain. Mr. Lovesey reports that the praspects for bringing !n good pro- ducers on Farnham Dome and on the Woodside structure, both in Utah, are excellent. The Woodside test is going down at a rapid rate and should pick up the objective sand at 2,750 early in December. Farnham begins to look up now that the long+lost string of tools has been recovered and the sand where hopes are centered is only 65 or 70 feet lower. —e Officials of the Salt Creek town- site company are planning to spud- in afongside of the raflroad station shortly. ‘When will Wyoming get another cut in the price of crude? Pretty soon, according to the blow do lvered in the Midcontinent today by the Prairie OH and Gas company. ‘Therse is now a 8,000-foot stand of ofl in the Rex Lake hole of the Oh{fo Of] company’s test in south- ern Wyoming. The present depth ts approximately 8,900 feet. The bit is penetrating the third and last of the muddy series of sands. A ten-hour swabbing test resulted recently in an output of about 850 barrels of oll, It 1s understood there that He- man D. Curtis ts rather disgusted with the findings of his test within the corporate limits af Thermop- olis. No word has been heard re-! cently as to the progress being | made. The rumor is that thp well was started on a location myster- fously indieted by an oll finder. It would seem on the surface that that no better time than now will come for extensive wildcatting in} this state. To anticipate the future when production in California and the Midcontinent will slump to a point where the market’s demands will force thorough exp'oration work} in all parts of the country, {ts the! wise way to keep from being the joyful grasshopper of the industry.
