General Motors, which sup plied a senattlon In Monday's operations, surged forward 22 points before noon, but retained no more than 11 polntts of the upturn at the close. Oil Khnrea Strong. The ell shares showed fairly consistent strength at all times and those Industrial groups whlcli sagged seemed to be af fected more by the natural r.flei of th preceding session' forward wing thpn by altered opinion over the makef situa tion. A market largely in thehands of seasoned speculators, a th stock mar ket has been for more than a month, la One in which caution In reapect to profits prevails. Credit conditions being as thoy are, the trader la moved to convert a profit on paper into cash without risking an un- expected unsettlement of quotations. Call money again lent at 8 to 7 per cent.

Well finished offerings sold largely from $18.(0 on up to $19.00, common aeiu plain grades at $18.00 and less. Some 9v-iound lambs, extra good quality, landed at $18.50. Less than half dozen loads ol sheep were Included in the receipts, and this branch of the market ruled strong. Good ewes sold at $13,25. A fair Inquiry existed for desirable shear ing lambs, but there was very little de mand tor the ordinary run of feeders; prices were nominally steady, Oood (hearing lamb claim a limit of about $17.25.

Active buy ing of all grains Exhausted its power at the highest prices that have been made on this upturn and those who endeavored to secure profits around the high point and later found buying weak.

Corn prices fluclusted.crratlcally within a rango of 5"'.c to 4c and closed within !4o to c of tho bottom. A wave of buying swept over the market after a sharp- break early on the government re port that uncovered many stop-loss or ders. All deliveries 'sold up to new high figures on the crop with the exception of the MajVbut profit-taking nd selling against offers filled buyers up. Shippers wet h drew from tho cash mar ket and industries were not Inclined to bid up, prices there being Unchanged early and n n.och a 5c lower later.

Now it is the Scandinavians who are going back to the old country by thousands. The movement until quite recently ha been practically , confined to Poles, Slovaks and former residents of the Balkan countries. They have been poing back as rapidly as the steamship, companies could provide accommodations. AH of them are wealthy, as wealth is counted in the old country. Most of them have been drawing wages ranging from $8 to $35 a day all during the war period, and they saved nearly all their earnings, liv ing sbt or eight in a room and sub sisting on the cheapest foods. How ever, when they made ready to go back they indulged in fur coats, patent leather shoes, velour hats, silk shirts and other marks of afflu ence. They will doubtless be ac corded a vociferous welcom by the tax collectors in their ountries, all of which art staggering undtr tre mendous debt. ' The case of the Scandinavians !s different. They are all coming bac, and their mission abroad is to re habilitate their relatives in the old country and' bring back with them other relatives. Steamship bookings to June are already filled to the ex treme limit, beventy-hve per cent of the Swedes who have hooked pas sage are citizens of the United States, chiefly skilled mechanics or tradesmen, with a sprinkling of do mestic help. Unlike the central Europeans, the Scandinavians are not putting on any style. " They have plenty of money, but are not spending jt for display, and they are coming back, augmented by relatives and friends to get more money. Holds Court In New York1 Perioral Tiirlce? T W.
