NEW YORK, Nov. 24-The decis- ion of the stock exchange to reopen reXt saturday for restricted dealings in listed bonds overshadowed all other developments in the financial district. The move is unusually i'm Gortant because it is approved by the foremost banking interests, which, it is understood, are ready to give more than moral support to resumption of operations Apart from this ac ton of the exchange, the greater ease shown by the local money markc. helped to stimulate sentiment to an unusual degree. Call money is abun
 Iant at 415 per cent and ninety day loans at 3-4 per cent. There is q decided increase in available cash for all manner of accommodations. Fi nancial houses with foreign affilid ticns reported further strengthening of credits here by belligerent nations. Another advance is quoted in the price of copper and suggested an in creased inquiry for that metal.
