Pit Note*.
^—Apparently the buy
g* aSd Baling nt Winnipeg the laat
few days hRs been in the wav of profit
talcing by speculators. The feature of the
Canadian trade is the fact that exporters
have been taking all the offerings in that
market.
Messages from Kansas City told of pur
chasing of a small amount of new crop
winter wheat for July shipment. This
news helped to take the edge off the late
recovery in today’s market. So far farm
ers have not sold ahead much new crop
wheat, but the time is fast nearing W'hen
they will. Some grain men are of the
opinion that farmers will not contract for
the shipment of new wheat until legls- j
lative agitation is out of the way.
The McNary-ITaugen bill is scheduled to j
come up for hearing in congress this
week. The wheat pit will probably swing
nervously until something definite is heard
from the capital. President Coolidge is
said to he against the measure. The next
most important factor in the trade is
W'eather. Because of the intention to re
duce wheat acreage this year, anv set
back to the winter wheat crop, which up
to this time is flattering, would probably
have more than the usual stimulating
effect.
Above all, the wheat pit needs a return
to normal speculation more than any
thing else. Without the normal flow of
buying newer in the pit it is quite llkelv
that prices will give way before long
when hedges against the new crop start
to filter In.
Shipment* of wheat from Chicaro and
Duluth to the east the past week by wav
of lake were large, and indications are
for another substantial decrease in the 1
visible supply figures Monday. The trade
is of the belief that North American eup
Tdie* will be well wanted before another
harvest roll* around.

Union Pacific Stock
Touches New High
but Softens Later
Trading Cautious During
Brief Session as Result
of Uncertainty on
BonuR.
By RICHARD KPIM.ANI,
Universal Staff Fdltor.
New York, May 17.—With the action
Of congress on the* president’s veto of
the bonus bill In doubt there was not
much disposition to trade in stocks to
day. From the opening to the close of
the short session the market declined.
Union Pacific, after going to a new
high of 133% softened and slid back to
133. Now Orleans. Texas and Mexico was
Impressively strengthened and rose to
118% but also lost part of its gam.
Copper shares were weak, Anaconda de
clining 1% and Kennecott %. American
atoc-ks of the metal wh'.le slightly higher
than this time last year, are only about
half what they were In 1922.
The trouble seems to be that so soon
as there is improvement in demand, pro
duction in America la increased and
meanwhile the American producer are not
able to meet the price :n European mar
kets of the Rio Tlnto producers. Students
of the market believe ths Americans are
too eager to take advantage of any Im
provement In demand and Immediately
Increase their output.
News about the automoMls situation
was better. Ford reported Increased de
mand this month and a larger distribution
thus far this year than in the same
period of 1923. Despite the Ford state
ment the motor shares were lower. Stude
baker declined half a point on light
transactions reaching tns low of the
year.
Transactions for ths day sfgrsgated
218.600 shares.
Rails showed a net loss of about 1-6
of a point and Industrials 2-8.
Cotton was dull and lower.

New York Bonds
V✓
New York. May 17.—Growing ureas!
ness over prospects that the preel
dent’s vato bill would be overridden im
parted a hesitant tone to bond trading
In today's brief and listless trading ses
sion. This situation was reflected most
clearly In United States government obli
gations, which developed an easier ten
dency.
Investment buying of high grade secur
ities based upon the desire of institutions
to keep their surplus funds employed, con
tinued however. Foreign government and
municipal liens and railroad mortgages
were the chief beneficiaries, although no
striking advances in prices took place
Swedish government sixes again were ac
tive in response to reports of an impend
ing loan.
The decline in the price of copper metal
to below 13 cents Imparted a reactionary
tone to the obligations of Important pro
ducing compani-s. Magma 7s declined
two points, leading most of the other
copper Issues into lower ground.
The contraction In the volume of new
flrancing this week, which totalled lees
than 125,000.000. It is believed hae placed
the market In a receptive mood for a num
ber of foreign and railroad bond Issues
which are scheduled for early offering.
Bond circles are expecting the sale of
a "Nickel Plate" issue of more than $25.
000,000 next week.
Total bond sale*, $7,461,000.

50TH BIRTHDAY OF 'I
“STORE” WEDDING
Special Dispatch to (The Omaha Bm. j
Fremont, Neb.. May 17.—50 years ■
ago today Mr. and| Sfra. Georg®
Fay of Fremont euere married tn a
local department stege where th® bride
was employed a* a saleswoman. ^
But back in 1574 a. public" wedding
attracted little attention. The store
was about the !arg<wt building in the i
settlement Rt that time that would
hold the few friends who gathered for
the ceremony. Instead of being a
publicity scheme Gar the owner of
the store the weddtng was considered
a quiet affair.
Mr. and Mrs. FS»y are well-known .
residents of this tflcinity. They are
still living in the same house they
constructed three years after their
marriage.
Although no pfcrs had been made
to observe the goSden anniversary of
the unique wedding, the eons and
daughters of Mr. and Mrs Fay gath
ered at the Fay home at a surprise
reunion.
