Market Trading.
Bethlehem and Crucible Steel Make
New Records. U. S. Corporation
Scoring on Earnings Report.

NEW YORK, July 2S.-The spirited
buying movement was continued with the
opening of the stock market today.
The highly favorable quarterly report
of the United States Steel Corporation was
reflected in heavy demand for that
stock. which opened with block of 10000
shares from 65a to Sc. as compared with
yesterdays close of 65B. Later it adj
vanced to 6614. the highest since the sus-
pension of the dividend.
Railroad shares retained their newly
developed strength, with eastern roads the
particular favorites.
New Haven gained 2l2 and Pennsyl-
vania. Reading and Canadian Pacific one.
Among the war stocks there vas a fur
Their rise.
Profit-Taking Causes Recessions.
Bethlehem Seeel rose fifteen points to
262 and Crucible Steel 23s to 521s, both
new high records
Profit taking sales caused recessions
after the first advance. but subsequent
rise in war munition shares carried up the
whole list again
Continuance of bullish reports from the
steel and iron industries and the closing
of new contracts We're instrumental in
causing large speculative purchasing of
particular stocks.
Revival Of outside interest in railroad
shares was an active bulIish factor.

Buying of the carriers was based on
prospects Of good earnings in connection
with the favorable crop outlook and the
activity in certain manufacturing in
dustries.

To Withdraw Funds.

Announcement that the Treasury De-
partment is preparing to call on deposit
tory banks for return of public funds
to the Treasury was the subject of some
discussion in local banking circles today
It was stated that Washington banks will
not be affected to any extent by such
Withdrawals. as the amounts of general
public funds deposit here are small
A number of local banks have what
may be called special government deposits,
such as Panama canal funds and postal
savings funds. but these are not affected
by the proposed withdrawal. Neither will
the plan affect the District tax money de-
posts which are paid back by the banks
according to a regular schedule.
The plan to withdraw the general
public fund deposits from the national
banks of the country is the initial step
in the withdrawal of all of these de-
posits as contemplated by the federal
reserve act. There is now about $780,
600, 900 on deposit in national banks.
1t. is understood that funds will be
left in national banks at points where
it is convenient to meet government
obligations. Inquiry in local banking
circles today indicated there is a be-
lief that Washington may be classed
as one of the places where the funds
will be allowed to remain. Washing
ton banks are called upon to cash
hundreds of government checks, as
many pay rolls are paid in the District
In this manner.
Condition of Treasury.
The condition of the United States
Treasury at the close of business yes
terday was:

a bullish Interpretation and in connec-
ton with further unfavorable reports
from private sources started an active
covering movement toward midday
which advanced prices IT to 18 points
over the previous night.
Later strength was inspired by very
favorable report regarding the Steel sit
uation in the country and by bullish
month end clearances. Heavy covering
continued and at 2 o'clock the market
was about rs to 26 points net higher

ADJUSTMENTS
At the Lyric

As was predicted when the manage nent of the Lyric theatre changed it's policy from 50-cents Keith vaudeville to a "10-20- 30-cent, three performa ,ie es daily" show. the "step backward" has proven signal failure, for with this weeks performance the prettiest, cost. est and safest theatre in the south will close it's doors on account of poor patronage to remain closed until the latter part of August. The promise was made that with the change the high standard of the acts heretofore pre- scented would be continued. This prom is, has not been kept, for with one or two exceptions mediocre bills have been the rule. of course, one should not 'Ilick." for what can a person expect for -20-30 cents?
 It reminds one of the negro that Pri- vate John Allen tells about. The darxey bought a box of brown axle grease. thinking it was new brand of cheese. He came back to the store later and said: Boss ah ain't got no kick or comin' bein' as how yo' only charged mo 15 cents fur dat box an frowed in CT handful CT crackers beside, but, Boss fore Gawd, dat's de ransomest cheese a ah evah et.' The patrons of the Iyrlc can hardly kick on the price, but the majority of the 1020-30-cent shows have certainly been ransom"
