IN CURB DEALINGS Profit-Taking Follows Bid- ding-Up Operations—O0ils Hold Their Ground. BY WILLIAM F. HEFFERNAN, Special Dispatch to The Star, NEW YORK, December 5.—Irregu- larity marked the movement of prices on the Curb Exchange at the start of the week. For the first hour the main body of stocks displayed the same characteristics it had throughout the preceding week, namely another record-breaking volume, accompanied by many new high records. But zs the session progressed profit-taking developed in many quarters, and sub- sequent developments indicated that the speculative element was divided as to the immediate future price trend. There was nothing that was not al- ready known to account for the new high records established in the issues selected for leadership. They were merely moving forward simultaneous- ly under the momentum sgathered on previous days and because of reduced floating supplies it did not take a great amount of buying to bring about ma- terfally higher levels. Bancitaly Possibilities. Stock dividend possibilities was still the incentive for the demand for Bancitaly shares, which were carried forward more than 4 points, Increased sarnings and new incoming business was responsible for the demand for Mengel Co. at a rise of 6 points. Borden ( was reflecting benefits to be derived through the consolida- tion with the Reid Ice«Cream Co. and was 4 points above last week’s final. On the basis of earnings present and prospective, American Cyanamid “B" was thought to be selling out of line and was bid up 3 points. Prospects of recapitalization in a substantial stock dividend distribution was the incentive for the buying of Safeway Stores. All of these jssues were seli- ing at their best for the year at one time or other. United Verde extension reached a new peak but came off over more than the ground gained later when profittaking became urgent. Lehigh Valley Coal sales broke sharply and some uneasiness was expressed over the future dividend policy of the com- pany. The place of prominence main- tained for the past two wecks by Ford Motors ot Canada was given over to other specialties and the price moved over a narrower range. Curb Oils Steady. ‘Weakness in a number of oil shares on the Stock Exchange failed to have a sympathetic influence on the leaders of this group in the Curb Market, and prices were fairly well maintained. Salt Creek Producers sold at a new high for the year, but improvement was limited to fractions. ‘Among low-priced issues heavy transactions occurred in Canadian Marconi. Negotiations are said to be under way between this company and Radio Corporation interests looking toward establishment of the first di- rect short-wave commercial radio sys- tem between the Dominion and the United States. Radio Corporation, through one of its subsidiaries, is said to control a large block of Canadian Marconi stock. RIGES GO LOWER NCOTTONNARKET Selling Is Promoted by Rela- tively Easy Liverpool Cables. By the Associated Press. NEW YORBK, December 5.—The cotton market opened barely steady today at a decline of 10 to 18 points under ‘Southern and local selling, prompted by relatively easy Liverpool cables. January eased off to 19.27 and May to 19.61. Net declines of 20 to 23 points on active months, but these prices brought in a renewal of cover- ing, and trade buying also was re- ported. This steadied the market and caused rallies of 5 or 6 points from the lowest by the end of the first hour. Private cables reported spot offer- ings were being slowly absorbed, with the futures market lower under liqui- dation and London selling. ‘The market subsequently eased un- der liquidation and some further Southern or local selling, which may tave been promoted by a private re- port estimating the crop at 13,184,000 bales and ginnings prior to December 1 at 11,775,000 bales. It was pointed out in connection with these figures, however, that the estimate showed a reduction of 388,000 bales as compared with mid-November figures by the same authority, and the market was a shade steadier at rallies of 4 or 6 points from the lowest around midday. WHEAT TURNS DOWN ON LIVERPOOL NEWS Shipments to Britain Are Factor. Corn, Oats and Provisions Also Easier. By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, December 5.—Influenced by unresponsive cables from Liver- pool, the Chicago wheat market soon turned downward today after an ir- regular start. Relative weakness at Liverpool was ascribed to 500,000 bush- els increase of the amount of wheat on passage to Great Britain. Opening at % decline to % advance, Chicago wheat hardened a little but then underwent a general sag. Corn, oats, and provisions were also easier, corn starting unchanged to 1 off and sub- sequently showing further losses, Emphasizing indifference shown to- day by the Liverpool wheat market concerning Saturday’s advance here was announcment that world ship- ments of wheat for the week were in excess both of the previous week’s total and that of a year ago. The latest week’s aggregate was 17,463,000 bushels, against 12,733,000 bushels last year. Continued deliveries on December wheat contracts in Chicago, were also given attention. In addi- tion to deliveries which have hereto- fore been made every day this month 107,000 bushels were handed over this morning. Increases reported in country offer- ings of corn led to setbacks at times December & UP).—Prices | ™ exchange on London, 124 |Decem ‘May The tovernment rnllwny in Costa Rica is to be electrified, C., MONDAY, DECEMBER 5. 1927.
