Changes Are Mixed. Blue Ridge common and preferred shares were a weak spot in the invest- ment trusts in early dealings. National Investors and Mayflower Associates, on the other hand, exceeded their early peaks. ‘Aviation shares were uneven. An an- nouncement of resumption of service by Transcontinental Air Transport failed to bring about strength in the com- pany’s shares. Detroit Aircraft failed to reflect marketwise its favorable sales rt. T Rme of the motors, such as Durant and Checker Cab, were higher, but Ford of France made a new low and Ford Motor Limited was s trifle below its previous closing quotation. A‘r’nel‘lcnn Superpower vied with Elec- tric Bond & Share for attention among the utility list. The latter took up a good part of the tape as it moved higher. Standard Power & Light again moved within a range of several points. Ohio Oll was a feature in the Stand- ard Oil group as it rose to a record high of 79%. It subsequently turned fractionally lower. Standard Oil of Ohio, Standard of Indiana, Vacuum and Humble likewise pointed upward. Gulf Oil, among_the higher priced miscel- Janeous oils, improved on previous quotations. Other Strong Spots. heaffer Pen was one of the wide gmsners in the industrial list, moving at one time 4 points upward. United States Gypsum, although not nearly so active as yesterday, again was taken at advancing prices. Glen Alden Coal was a couple of points higher. Sonora Products, which is the new name for ‘Acoustic Products, also met better bids at advancing prices. RAILROAD SEEKING PERMIT TO EXPAND By the Associated Press. The Pittsburgh & West Virginia Rail- road today filed with the Iaterstate Commerce Commission an amended ap- plication for permission to acguire con- trol of the Wheeling & Lake Erie Rail- way and its subsidiary, the Lorain & ‘West Virginia. The application revealed that the Pittsburgh & West Virginia contemplat- ed the purchase of 76,795 shares of ‘Wheeling prior lien stock, 9,867 shares of Wheeling preferred and 112,000 shares of Wheeling common stock for $21,362,638 plus interest. The road filed the amended applica- tion after the commission’s recent agreement for the Alleghany Corpor- ation to turn its Wheeling & Lake Erie stock over to a trustee. The Alleghany Corporation obtained this stock from the New York Central and the Balti- more & Ohio after the commission found these two railroads and the Nickel Plate Railroad guilty of violat- ing the Clayton anti-trust act by ac- quiring control of the Wheeling & Lake Erie by purchase of stock without the commission's approval. The application said no agreement for stock purchase had been reached but that if the commission approved, negoti- ations ‘would be made for the stock purchase at the figure named or at a figure prescribed by the commission. The railroad also proposed purchasing 38,398 shares of Wheeling prior lien stock, 4,933 shares of preferred and 56.- 000 common, owned by the Nickel Plate for $9,749,018. NEW YORK COTTON. NEW YORK, September 11 (Special). —Though the cotton market developed resistance during the first few hours of trading and a recovery of 3% of a cent in prices the selling movement, which started after the Government reported Monday, was resumed the last hour. The market ended with a loss of about 81 a bale on the day. Spots were re- duced 20 points to 18.75. Cotton Range. GRAIN MARKET. CHICAGO, September 11 () —Sensa- tional upturns in flaxseed prices at Buenos Aires, a traditional index of severe damage to the wheat crop of Argentina, did much today to hoist wheat values here.

Other varieties of grapes, especially those from California, were more plen- tiful, however, but the demand was not brisk.» Nearby growers had supplies of grapes two weeks or more ago, selling them around $2 a bushel. They had practically none to offer this morning. Cantaloupes Plentiful. Cantaloupes continue in plentiful supplies, both hom wn and shipped- in stock, and dealers late yesterday cleaned up Delaware shipments in standard crates as low as 75 cents. Cantaloupes from the West, Delaware and nearby Maryland continue of good quality. Honeydews, honeyballs and Persian melons are also being received in large quantities. Because of the immense quantities received, according to re- ports, prices have dropped to such an extent that heavy sales are reported. Oranges and lemons are not so plentiful, the price of lemons having increased the past few days. Alligator pears, peaches, apples, persimmons, pears and plums are among the other fruits offered at this time. Apple prices dropped to $1 a bushel for unclassified stock, some peaches, not much colored, selling at a similar price. The best quality Pennsylvania peaches sold as high as $3 a bushel. Dealers had a few quinces this morning to offer at $2 a bushel, but the demand was ow. Stringless beans, top qualifty stock, sold as low as 75 cents a bushel this morning, the lowest price of the sea- son. Lima beans sold around $1.75 a bushel, while shelled stock sold at 30 and 35 cents a quart, ‘Tomatoes continue plentiful and of splendid quality, selling today at 50 and 75 cents a 2-peck basket. Peppers, both green and red, were offered at 75 cents a bushel. Potatoes, 90-pound sacks, mostly from Maine and Virginia, were offered at $2 and $2.50. Corn was quoted at $1.25 and $1.50 for choice stock of 5 dozen in a sack. Okra, product of North Carolina grow- ers, was so plentiful and in such slow demand that dealers were willing to ac- cept any offer. Dealers reported a continued firm condition of the butter and egg mar- ket, butter prices having increased a fraction of a cent. Prices of most commodities this morning were sub- stantially the same as prices quoted yesterday. Today's Wholesale Prices—Jobbers’ Prices Slightly Higher.

NEW YORK, September 11.—Style is a dominant factor today in jewelry as well as in women’s clothing and a score of other industries. This fact was strongly emphasized today by some of the great manufacturing jewelers who have just returned from a study of the European jewel markets. Jewels are unchanged in chemical and atomic structure, but their treat- ment has never been so different since prehistoric man found a bright pebble and polished it. Long before the uses of fire were dis- covered, man found pearls in the oys- ters he opened for food. “Pearls with a difference” is the dominant note for the moment in modern jewel fashions, according to the manufacturers. The call at present is for seed pearls. This is more emphatic than it has been since the days of the field of the cloth of gold in the middle ages. Necklaces now are being made of five or more strands of seed pearls linked into flat, exquisitely carved pieces of jade or crystal. Pearl tassels from six to ten inches irt length are formed on these seedlings, which for years went begging in the markets of the Orient and along the mussel beds of the Mis- sissippl. Coral is also introduced as a color contrast for the necklace clasps. This does not mean that the large pearls are out of fashion. They never will be, according to the jewelers, but same of the black, pink and other colored big pearls are now suspended on chains of seedlings. The produc-| tion of the finest pearls, those of ‘the Persian Gulf, remains almost stationary from year to year, but this new demand has naturally forced up prices and values today are higher than they have ever been.
