Copper Very Strong.

Crucible Steel made 2% advance and
Maxwell Motors nearly points gain.
Coppers were all very strong. and
slight additional gains were made in
minor industrials. Steel common sold
to 87A.
The rails were reasonably steady.
One of the most potent signs Of the
strength of the undertone was the fact
that the operation on J. Pierpont Nor

Brokers themselves have been uneasy

reaction was a certainty. and the fact

orders when it started was we'll under

The disposition to change from Stude-
baker, Baldwin, Industrial Alcohol and
Motor shares to the "old reliables'' of
all the years tnat have passed was not
unwelcome to brokers and commission
houses.
They aided it along by joining in the
buying movement and gave the rails

Peace rumors prove abortive, but the
fact that they had some effect when
they were given circulation indicated
nothing more than the nervous atti-
tude of the speculative element, ready
to listen to any and all rumors.
Studebaker was the most erratic of
the war shares. as it was also the lead
