Other Shares Rise. BY WILLIAM F. HEFFERNAN. Special Dispatch to The Star. NEW YORK, March 17.—Following three record breaking days in volume of sales, speculative interests at the close of the week naturally continued to cen- ter in Marconi Co. of Canada shares on the Curb Exchange. The upward movement, however, was not continued. Heavy selling orders were thrown upon the market at the opening, the initial transaction consisting of a block ot 40,000 shares at 715. This com- pared with the previous final of 8% ‘The price rallled after the early selling had been absorbed. Offerings were to be coming from interests who had purchased at considerably lower prices and were desirous of taking down profits. Spanish and General Corporation, affiliated with Marconi through stock ownership, moved into new high ground. Among high-priced specialties, Casein & Co. of America was a fea- ture extending yesterday's 9-point gain another 15 points to a new high of 195. United Light & Power class “A” con- tinued in demand around top prices for the year. Auburn Auto gained more than 2 points to 130, while Tublu Arti- ficial Silk sold at another new top of 610. Among the oils, Standard of Ken- tucky moved higher in response to the report of 1927 earnings, which were considered satisfactory in the face of the depressed conditions of the in- dustry. Cumberland Pipe & Prairie Pipe feature the pipe line shares. The market closed fairly active with interest still centering in the early lead- ers. Marconi of Canada turned down again just before the end, and at 7% was off a point from the previous final. Elsewhere profit-taking made itself felt but was not sufficient to offset all the early improvement. COTTON PRICE RISES ON WEATHER NEWS Firmness at Liverpool Also Bullish I Factor in Trade During the Short Session. By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, March 17.—The cotton | market opened firm at an advance of 16 to 19 points on further active cov- ering or trade and commission house buying inspired by the firmness of Liv- erpool, reports of excessive rains in the Eastern belt and clearing colder weath- er in the Southwest. Prices made new high ground for the movement, selling’ up to 19.26 for May and 18.83 for October, but there was considerable realizing for over the week end coupled with some Southern selling and prices eased off 8 or 10 points from the best by the end of the first hour. Private cables reported cov- ering, good calling, with local, conti- nental and Indian buying in Liverpool, and said there was an improved de- mand for plece goods from India. The amount of cotton on shipboard awaiting clearance at the end of the week was estimated ‘at 121,000 bales against 185,- 000 last year.

By the Assoclated Press. CHICAGO, March 17.—Wheat prices advanced today on buying due, more or less, to the United States Govern- ment report on stocks of wheat .in country mills and elevators. The re- port was construed here as bullish. Opening unchanged to % higher, whea! later scored a declded general advance. Corn, oats and provisions were also firmer, but corn met with much umn( to realize profits. After starting % to % ‘ljlg. corn reacted to near yesterday's 1t was polnted out by wheat traders today that official figures on domestic country mill and elevator stocks of bushels below last year-are about 16,~ 000,000 under the estimates of prlvnte experts. Assertions were also made that the total domestic disappearance of wheat is 55,000,000 above that for the preceding crop. Conclusions drawn by authorities friendly to higher prices for wheat were that today’s Government report taken with other 'current information dis- proves general belief that wheat sup- plies: this year are burdensome.
