PRICE MOVEMENT
SOON EXHAUSTED
Marked Professional Trading Is

BUYING FOR LONDON FACTOR
Settlement of Larger Interests Is
Awaited Before important
Questions Attempted
BUYING FOR LONDON FACTOR
TAssoclated Press1


NEW YORK. Sept. 20-The narrow
limitations of the present stock market
We're marked again today by the way
IN which price movements exhausted
themselves before going far in either
direction. The wholly professional par
ticipation in the trading serves to ex-
plain this restricted movement. The
settlement of larger questions Is await
ed by the larger financial interests be-
fore attempting any important ques-
tions.
Buying for London account was a
factor in the strength shown at the
outset here. The higher prices brought
realizing sales and reaction set in.
The decline began about the time the
finance committee OF the United States
Steel corporation was ready to go into
session and that stock led the move
ment.
don was cited and reports of curtail-
ment of output by one of the copper
mining companies of second grade was
pointed to as an encouraging develop
ment in the copper trade.
Reports of increasing demand for
steel products, of increasing competi-
tion for orders and of coming further
reductions in the prices Of leading lines
were kept in circulation and helped to
depress United STATES Steel, with SYM
pathetic effect on the general list.
The proposed large increase in Ore
gon Short Line stock came as a sur
prise and market sentiment was rather
at loss TO interpret it's significance
or its effect on Union Pacific as the
owner of the existing stock and the
proposed taker of additional stock
when it shall be issued.
There was a decline in the private
discount rate in London and foreign
exchange rates hero were lower.
An increase was reported in the sup
ply of cotton bills offering in the ex-
change market and the demand for
remittance is light.
Bonds were irregular. Total sales,
par value, $2.156OO0. United States
bonds unchanged OH call.
