REINQUIUY FOR
LESSER SECURITIES
IN TODAY'S TRADING
Investment Demand Contin-
ues to Become L arger.
Money in Supply in New
York at Six Per Cent.

( Further improvement was shown in the
ing. Money was in free supply in New
York on the basis of 6 per cent. for 5
and 6 months loans, and the investment
demand for securities continued to ex-
ipand so as to include many Of the lesser
grades of securities.
The most important feature was the
diversion of much of this demand from
New York city issues, which are now on
tsO to 4.90 per cent. basis, to such issues
as Brooklyn Rapid Transit notes, which
Scan be obtained at prices yielding from
lb& to per cent. Brooklyn Rapid Transit
inotes, because of this diversion of in
lvestment demand, advanced n to 81, and
we're sold yesterday on per cent.
fbasis. were quoted today at 5k per cent.
4 basis, and were fully sold on those terms.
I This Is evidence of a restoration of con-
hdence in the mass of fairly good securi-
flies that has been absent since the Stock
SExchange closed. The same Improvement
Swas noted in the dealings in the trading
(group on the New street curb. United
States Steel common could not be bought
There this morning at less than Az, even
I'm small amounts. It was again under
iss1s at the beginning of the week. Anal
Famated Copper was in demand at Il.
| Foreign exchange was slightly firmer,
with demand at 4,9Oh and cables at 4.9l,
because OF purchases for the Cedric and
lLuisftania, which leave on wednesday.
iExchange for these steamers must be
lobtained before the close of Monday, as
Tuesday is election day and banks will
)then be closed.
Bonds also continued in brisk demand
;at further advances in those issues ia
Yored by investors.

lEXPECT EARLY DECISION
IN EASTERN RATE CASE
Commerce Commission Begins Con-
sideration Of Railroads Plea.

WASHINGTON. Oct Sl.-Members Of
the Interstate Commerce Commission to-
day settled down to consideration of the
testimony taken at its hearings on the
plea of the Eastern railroads for an ad-
vance of per cent. over existing freight
rates. None of the members would inti-
mate when a decision would be forthcom-
ing. That the Commissioners were divided
in their opinion on the subject was evil
dent, but which way the majority leaned
was difficult to determine.
1t was regarded today as likely that
the Commission would hand down its de-
oision at an early date. The Commission
ers throughout have shown clearly that
they regard suspense as actually worse
than an adverse decree, and they are de-
sirous OF having the transportation COM
panies get down to some stable working
basis. Therefore, It is likely that the
Commission will make its announcement
within the next 10 days or two weeks.
