FINANCIAL
New York, Dec. 6. Stocks drifted idly
during the greater part of today's ex
tremely professional session, prices of
many leading Issues evincing a further
disposition to decline under moderate
pressure.
Reversion to the old rule on stock mar
gins, permitting brokors to loan up to
SO per cent on collateral, failed to stim
ulate outside Interest In the slightest de
gree, nor did this modification lend to
relax rates for money.
Pools were fairly active, nevertheless, In
such speculative favoritea as tobaccos,
motors, oils, sugars and several miscel
laneous Issues, gross gsins in these divis
ions ranging from 2 to almost 10 points.
Interest in the general industrial situa
tion was heightened by the publication
of reviews and surveys, which made pessi
mistic references to the future of the
steel and iron trade, with predictions of
a general cut In prevailing price schedules
United States Steel was the objective
of Incessant pressure, although only half
a point at the close. Other industrials
and equipments also made material re
coveries in the final hour and gas shares
featured the utilities at gains of 2 to 4
points, although local tractions were in
clined to yield.
Kails and shippings were among the un
certain features, the former showing Ir
regularity throughout, while Marines eased
in the later dealings with metals and ob
scure specialties.
The only alteration reported in foreign
exchange was a slight reduction in ster
ling demand bills, rates to neutral cen
ters showing mors firmness.
The tone of United States government
bonds again afforded a contrast to tnc
balance of the bond list. Liberty Issues
continuing to decline, the fourth 4 'is
making a new low at $."..96. Total sales
(par value) were $11,375,000. Old United
States bonds were unchanged on call.
Chicago Grain and Provisions.
Chicago, Dec. 6 Corn weakened In
price today after the fact became clear
that northern Illinois offerings in particu
lar had considerably enlarged. The mar
ket closed nervous, l?c net lower to V4o
advance, with both January and Febru
ary, $1 .31 gl.S2. Oats lost Vic, and
provisions finished unchanged to 60c
down.
Unsettled feeling and many fluctua
tions within a narrow range character
ized the corn market until numerous
rural holders began to show more of a
disposition to sell than has been tha
rule of late. Previous to this develop
mctf, the spread of Influenza through
farming communities was taken in some
quarters to Indicate restriction of labor
and possible consequent aerlous curtail
ment ot supplies. Late in the session,
however, besides the increase of offerings,
evidence was at hand that feeding de
mand in aome sections was not so keen
as recently. Profit-taking on bulges served
likewise to check bullish sentiment. A
little export Inquiry was noted, but ac
tual business In that direction lacked
volume.
In the main, oats followed corn. Trade
was chiefly local. Shippers were appar
ently out of the market for the tima
being.
Provisions sagged with grain and hogs.
Packers were credited with buying spar
ingly on the decline.
