STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, Sept. 17.-Interest in todays
stock market centered largely around the
steel issues and certain other Industrial
securities The crop situation concerning
which further contradictory reports came
to hand OF secondary Importance com
pared with the impression conveyed by the
further heaviness of steel common, which
established new low record of 1917.
There was little pressure against steel pre-
ferred and the five per cent bonds were
steady compared with the previous days
marked weakness.
Another feature of the industrial situa-
ton which was not without influence, fol-
lowing hard upon the early weeks devei
opments in United States Realty was the
showing made by the Standard Rope e
Irvine Company and the late break in
Tennessee Coal. Persistent selling of
Americans by London and the suspension
of a prominent Liverpool cotton house
helped to produce an irregular opening.
Buying of standard railway shares by
brokers commonly supposed to represent
strong interests, together with heavy COW
ering turned the course of the market up
ward before noon Atchison was taken in
large amounts by Western commission
houses and some of the Pacific stocks I'M
der buying by brokers that have been
prominent in these issues recently. Prac'
ticaly all of the mornings excitement was
wiped out later when trading became dull
and narrow and prices once more sagged
In the last hour the weakness of the in
dustrial group became more acute, Ten
nessee Coal selling off points, and Steel
common touching the low figure of the
day. q
The market closed steady. 1t developed
after the close of the market that much
of the selling of Tennessee Coal came
from Philadelphia house and was said
to be based on adverse trade reports.
Foreign exchange advanced sharply to
4S6.25, due largely to demand for bills to
meet maturing ninety day loans. A fea-
ture of the day was the sale of 100 shares
of U. S. Shpbuilding at one dollar per
share
The bond market showed some slight
irregularity in sympathy with the wide
fluctuations in u S. Steel.
