OPTIMISM PREVAILS
 IN STOCK MARKET
United States Leads Entire World as an Exporting
 Nation

New York, August 27.-Germanys i'm piled willingness to disavow the sinking of the Arabic and other evidence of her desire to avoid complications with this country were again the paramount fac tors of today's active and strong market. Developments in other quarters which heightened speculative optimism included the figures compiled by the department of commerce, indicating that the United States now leads the entire world as an exporting nation; another very substan- tial rise in copper values abroad. and further upward revision of price sched- u,es for steel, iron, lead and kindred products
 These cheerful auguries were partly nullified. however, by another drop in exchange on London. demand sterling falling B under yesterdays previous low record to 4.63N, with renewed weakness in remittances to Paris and other ,conti- mental financial centres. Announcement that representatives of the French gov ernment are to participate in the coming conferences denominated the greater in terest with which this irregular situation is coming to be regarded.
 :. As whole, metal shares were the out standing issues of the day, Tennessee Copper absorbing the greater part of the Fattention by reason of it's wild fiuctua- tions. Failure of the directors to declare an extra dividend, or take other action favorable to shareholders, caused a drop of 10 points in the first hour to 55. Later it recovered to 601s and closed at 55.
 Anacona rose 211 to 74%, Utah ? to 69N, American Smelling 215 to S2%, and Nation al Lead Sz to 65%, with 10 and point ad- vances in Federal Mining common and preferred at 35 and 52 respectively. The better known war specialties made irres- ular gains of to points, and United States Steel again on tremendous deal ings ascended 1A to n, it's best price since the injection of the Arabic incident. Fer tilizers, motors and few utilities rose and fell within to point limits, and South Porto Rico Sugar stood out for it's % point rise to 100 on later sales of 100 shares each. Inevitable realizing sales caused some irregularity and recessions i at the close Total sales amounted u GOO shares.
 Shoud forecasts of the weeks money movement be fulfilled, tomorrow's bank statement will show another large gain in cash. bringing excess reserves close to the $200 GOO mark of last June.
 Bonds were irregular, with small fu- ture offerings. Total sales (par value) aggregated s2,7S0,000.
 United States bonds were unchanged on call.
