Paul for London account. The foreign
lquidations were fully appreciated by
long outstanding short interest, which
had given orders to cover at the open
ing. 1t is understood that London sold
10000 shares of the stock. The favorable
crop reports and the reduction in Ster-
ling Exchange more than offset the for
eign realization, however, and prices for
the railways moved up steadily through
out the day. The Erie reorganization plan
was wen secured and the securities of the
company, which have been demanded for
months, figured prominently IN the deal
ings The common rose Is to 9 and the
preferred "a to 221s, while the second con-
soils certificates, stamped, jumped 5H to
75A. Reports from Philadelphia that the
coal trade was on the mend strengthened

low-priced issues and sold up to 10. The
Industrials were feverish. Sugar was
heavy and pressed for sale, breaking from
1921 TO 1O63sG1073l. The selling was due
to further reduction in the price of re-
fined and to a flood of rumors to the effect
that insiders were willing to see lower
figures for the certificates. st. Louis firms
sold tobacco. The stock dropped Pa to s5A
and rallied to 96A. Chicago Gas was firm
and rose to 63A063h. 1t was again ru-
mored that the Benedict party is taking
