S. C. & F. New York office cables: Stocks: The market was reaction- ary and closed generally lower, partly on President Roosevelt's speech sug- gesting shorter hours of work and higher minimum wages and partly owing to prospects of higher taxes. Traders to-day were on the cautious side. The book value of Adama Ex- press was $10.44 per share on March 31st, against $13.04 at the end of 1035,
The Schenley Distillers Cor- poration earned $1.48 per share for itre quarter ended March 31st., against $1.51 per share during the corres- ponding period of Inst year. Demand deposits during the past weeld amounted to $13,890,000,000 as com- pared with $13,578,000,000 the pre-
