MARKET 15 DULL PRICE MOVE LAGS Speculative Bonds Show Signs of Decided Weakiss New York, Oct. 14 (M—The bond market was quiet at the resumption of trading today. Fractional changes were the rule in contrast to the wide movements last week. Although the market was steadier, lower prices predominated. In the domestic section, most of {he weakness was in stock privilege and speculative bonds, and a few railroad issues that have been under pressure recently. The market for foreign bonds was considerably im- proved. The upturn in South Ameri- cans and the narrow groove in which other issues moved suggested that the contagious selling of for- cign loans by American investors had dwindled to small proportyns and has been partly supplanted by buying. [4 The principal piece ©of mew financing was the $50,000,000 issue of 62 day treasury bills, at a 175 per cent per annum discount. Three municipal issues were publicly of- fered. A $3,000,000 Wid-West States Utilities company 5 1-2 per cent mortgage issue has been approved by the Arkansas railroad commis- sion. The Continental Oil company, tormerly the Marland Oil Co., has called for redemption on December 15, 1930, the entire $7,500,000 prin- cipal amount series C 5 per cent gold notes of the Marland Co. Despite the setback of the last two weeks bond men are understood to regard the reaction as only tem- porary.’ The federal reserve board in its | monthly review for September point- od out that easy conditions exist throughout the country as shown | by the small volume of indebtedness of member banks to the federal re- serve.

IRREGULAR TREND ONTODAY'S GUR Liquidation General at Qpening, Leaders Sell Low New York, Oct. 14 (®—Curb prices shifted irregularly today. Liquidation was general at the opening when some of the leaders sold close to last week’s lows, but when the accumulation of holiday week-end selling orders had been exhausted the market began a slow improvement that erased early losses of a couple points in many of the active shares . Substitution of a scrip dividend for the 50 cent quarterly payment by Brazilian Traction brought con- siderable stock on to the market and the price broke three points to a new low. Electric Bond & Share was heavy in the earlier hours, dipping two points, but found support on the break and climbed moderately about the Saturday close. The tona of the other utilities also improved. Oils were soft. Gulf, Standard of Indiana and Vacuum ylelded about a point each. Humble eased into new low ground for the year. Hous- ton and Cities Service were steady. Industrials and specialties were highly irregular in dull trading. Noranda dropped to a new low, while Driver Harris sagged 3 points. Cunco Press rallied slightly. T Ford shares were firm. Gorham Manufacturing Voting Trust certifi- cates tumbled 9 points to a new minimum. Investment trusts showed heavi- ness, but losses were nominal. Call money renewed on the curb at 2 1-2 per cent. PACKERS INSIST PRICES AVAILABLE (ite Newspaper Reports as Proof of Statement ‘Washington, Oct. 14 (P —Evidence showing the wide dissemination of livestock market reports to newspa- pers was submitted in the District of Columbia court today by counsel for the meat packers in their effort to prove unfounded charges that the packers were controlling market in- formation. This was one of several charges made by the government in 1920 against the packers and later a con- sent decree sharply limiting thelr ac- tivities was entered into. Company are now seeking modifica- tion of the decrce to enable them to retail meats and other food pro- ducts. Chain stores also came in for at- tention at today’s hearing. Frank Hunter, president of the Tast Side Packing company, East St. Louis, Ill, sald about 10 per cent of his sales were with chain stores and these stores bought at somewhat lower prices than others, He added this was because the {chaln stores had such a volume of business that his concern could not afford not to have them as custom- ers. The packers contend the consent decree has given an unfair advan- tage to chair store groups.

New York, Oct. 14 (P—Trading d relatively quiet, and sha; prices made steady and broad r covery in today's stock market, after a flurry of liquidation at the open- repr ng an accumulation of selling orders over the week-end, and possibly the final jettisoning of weakened accounts. Sale of large blocks, several in- dividual transactions running from 100 to 12,000 shares, during the st few minutes depressed prices close to the lows of last ay, but the resistance met at that level was impressive and prompted extensive short covering. In this connection it was notable that economic advi their weekly advic cautioned a zhtened into disposing of gool securities, and at least one of the larger services advocated substantial investment of funds in selected ocks around recent levels. The first flurry of selling depres: ed prices about 1 to 5 points, but by carly afternoon, there were nume ous nct gains of like extent, most pivotal res showing advance ading was in fair volume, but fail- cd to reach the proportions of last Friday or Saturday. U. S. Steel de- clined 3% points to 144%, within a fraction of its low, then made full recovery. American Telephone converted an early loss of more than 2 into a gain of 3.

Further | selling ssure in' the grain mar- kets was one of the few adverse in- fluences. Brokers stated that the two-day week-end closing had per- mitted the financial community to make a sane appraisal of the stock market situation, and that conclu- I sions were in the main cheering. The reduction of $215,000,00 in loans on securities by weekly re- porting federal reserve member banks was accepted as indicating that real cleaning out of trouble- some situations had been extensive. This reduction was considerably larger than the drop of $158,000,000 in brokers' loans. In recent months Lrokers' 1 have fallen much more rapidly than bank loans on se- curities, indicating a mere transfer of loans from brokers to banks. A reversal of the tendency was regard- ed as decidedly cheering.
