Studebaker ana Steel Decline. The principal reaction of the day carried aetive industrial stocks down a point and more, Steel falling slight- ly under 101 and Studebaker, which was really weak, falling off more than 2 points to 35%. It was noticeable that pressure was not at all general, for stocks like North American, American Ice and General Electric, in which the float- ing supply is always small, went up to new high levels. General Motors profited from the company’s excellent six-month state- ment and was very steady around 145. Such evidence of prosperity as Gen- eral Motors announced, particularly in an $84,000,000 improvement in cash (counting in_retired bank loans) should have been cheering to hold- ers of motor stocks generally. The heaviness.of Studebaker presumably represented doubt about the much discussed extra dividend later in the year. High-Grade Rafls Firm. A feature of the late afternoon deal ings was the strength of Pennsylva- nia, L. & N. and tlantic Coast Line, together with the very steady position of B. & O., Lehigh Valley and many others. : Raflroads, in fact, gave the market a new tone. Pennsylvania's leader- ship was attributed to success which the company has had in dedling with iu‘nshopmen. It reached a new high at 45 ! — ) . “Cheap things are made for people who cannot pay more. people who buy goods or services in this way “invariably pay out tore in the end by having pnid’ less in the bewinning.” Fouaded 1804 /HIRES, TURNER GLASS COMPANY WASHINGTON, D.

NEW YORK, July 21.—Considering the weakness of Liverpool before the opening today, attributed to Amer- ican selling_there, the local cotton market was®airly steady and at the opening decline of 6 to 10 points there was a fair amount of local cov ering. While dry weather continued over the southwest there seemed to be some relief from showery condi- tions in the east, and, with both the coal and rail strikes still unsettled, ! traders showed little disposition to act aggressively on the bull side. After the opening the market' was dull and about steady, with October around 22.29 and December 22.24, or a few points under opening levels. Futures opened steady—October, December, January, 21.86. NEW ORLEANS, 21 —Fairly favorable crop accounts from most sections of the belt, together with somewhat more favorabie weather, caused selling of cotton today under which prices dropped 18 to 19 points in the first hour of the session. O« tober fell off to 21.68. Hedge sel ing was again in evidence and some little selling was caused by unfavor- able reports from the English mill trade. Futures opened steady—Jul. October, 21.80; December, 2 uary, 21.62; March, 21.51. REFINED SUGAR FIRMER. NEW YORK, July 21.—The raw sugar market was quiet early today. The undertone was a little easier, with spot Cubas offered at 3 11-16 cents cost l.n:‘ freight, equal to 5.30 h’r’l\mul?!nnewed selling in raw sugar futures during the early opera- tions, with prices selling 7 to 8 point below the previous close. Near mid- day there was a rally of 3 to 4 points on_ covering. The market for re firmer and prices were unchanged to 20 points higher, with fine granulated now quoted from 6:80 to 6.90. Refined futures were nominal. —_— BERLIN BANK STATEMENT.

NEW YORK, July 21.—The strensth of the market for cotton goods was reflected in the firmness with which sellers met bids for future delivery in the standard print cloths. Current prices on spot deliveries were firmiy maintained and the amount of goods which can be obtained at those figures seemed to be limited. In print cloths the narrower,constructions seemed in best demand. Some weights of sheet- ings showed fractional advances from early week levels, and a fair volume of business was done by jobbers and the bag trade. Pajama checks for future delivery were strong, and some business was done in sateens and pop- ins. The fact that buying for future de- livery has started in the silk market was an_even more encouraging sixn today than the strength of prices. Most purchases seemed to be for con- sumption rather than speculation. e BAR SILVER QUOTATION 5 NEW YORK. July 2:.—Foreign bar Iver, 69%; Mexican dollars, 63%.
