NEW YORK. May II


The Commercials money article saws:
The stock market exhibits rather more con-
flhence, but without any increase OF activity.
The outside public keep alOOf from the mar
ket, very common course when the prices
are really ut moderate rates, and the market
Is very much in the hands OF the brokers'
On the street considerable interest Is felt on
the probable fate Of the loan bill before
CongreSS-as 1t Is considered certain that in
the event ofthe measure being adopted there
will be ngeneral advance insstoclks. At the
board Michigan Southern was the strongest
stock on the list. There Is a considerable
amount Of stock being bought mp in q quiet
way, supposed 10 be on account of new
clique In tile stock, which Is considered
capable Of being run up to IS. Reading ac-
tive, but u lower. Governments rather more
active without change in price; 6 OF I67 have
been more In demand and sold uF1 to 1921
Foreign exchange rather less active but rates
remain steady under the scarcity OF produce
and cotton bills.
LATER.-The Commercial says the money
market continues sluggish. There is no
abatement, but rather an increase on the
plithoria OF idle funds. The brokers want
very little. Speculation being quiet, and pa
per is not freely offered, though in very nc
tive demand. The uncertainty respecting
the new loan bill keeps certain amount OF
operations in suspense. On call loans the
rate ranges at 4@5 per cent; the latter being
the prevailing rate.
