Show 1 1 IM'S IB NEW YORK, Sepl Is ; I fi and losses at the opening oi toda 'fl I !j stock market ressinn reflected overnight over-night developments In the labor situa-I, situa-I, tlon. The various ytel shares and I equipment reacted with oils, motor I I coppers and shippings, but losses Wi r H poen inr?'M recovered on the strens I shown by Baldwin Locomotive, Lat I a-I a-I v.-anna Steel, General Motors and Lo- I baccos. United States Steel altered I ;-ligh4,ly over and under yesterday's ! linal quotations and rails, invr tniens I as well as .speculative issues, shaded H j moderately. The marker .became listless after ihe opening, traders awaiting developments develop-ments at Pittsburgh before extending iheir committments for cither account ac-count Mnst early gains were can-I! can-I! celled before the end of the first hour It, when reports announcing the decision II el the labor leaders to issue the strike order were received. Reactions were moderate, however, holding within 1 i to 2 points. High priced tobacco is sues were eonspieuous exceptions o the lower trend, American Tobacco, American Snuff and Lorrillard To bacco making wins of 6 to 20 point-Steel point-Steel and equipments rallied again ' noon. There were heavy dealing in Victory bonds, also Anglo-French 5'a :t slight gains. The second reversal of the session occurred at midday, when farther heavy selling forced United States Steel down to the lowest prir-. of the week Related shares, equipm- I r.ils, motors find hippmps also reci-;- tered extreme declines of 2 to .' points. ! f CHICAGO GRAIN n: CHICAGO. Sept is Nervou i over the labor situation, especially the uncertain outlook regarding the steel f-trlke outlook, resulted in an irregular opening today in the corn market. I it- tie pressure to sell, however, developed j ".nd with commission houses absorbing i most of the offerings more confldenc in the buying side was shown Nev l theless advances were not well main-, tained. Opening prices which ranped from yC decline to 34c advance, witb September $L43651 432 and December j ?1.21l-21i were followed by a moderate mod-erate upturn all around, but then by something of a reaction. Scantiness of arrivals gave indc-1 pendent firmness to oats. After op n-ing n-ing He off to c advance, including December at 68 to 68e. the market j scored a substantial advance. Provisions were dull and weak. There was an absence of any agen s-sive s-sive support. Speculators who took a bearish view of tpe likelihood of a steel strike) found difficulty later in covering their corn sales. Scarcity of rural offerings offer-ings tended to lift the market aficr' every dip. The close was strong, 2: to 4c net higher, with September! 11.47 and December. ?1 21 to ?1 25 Selling of lard by packers was the' ehief feature of the provision market in the late trading.
