READING is ONLY
LIVE RAIL ISSUE
Steel Repeated It's Record Price and
Marine Preferred Passed All Pre-
ViOus Achievements.

New York, Sept. 11.-Apart from
enormous trading, which exceeded
100000 shares, the feature of the fore
noon was the absolute neglect and rel
alive heaviness of rails. Reading was
the only issue Of that group to show
any prominence, even under pressure,
other investment issues being engulf-
ed in the bewildering movement of
speculation in other parts of the list.
Minor stocks of the nOn-dividend
class participated in the rise, but
steel. which repeated its record price
of 37s, and Marine preferred, which
broke all records at 1855, were the
conspicuous features. Metals, Mexi-
cans and some equipments and NUM-
lions were two 10 three points higher
Bonds were irregular.
Reading was the only striking eX-
ception to the rising tendency on the
resumption of trading today, other
leaders and speculative favorites
mounting above last weeks final quo
tatiOns- Readings reversal of 21%
points was soon largely recovered,
however, while coppers, independent
steels, equipments and the paper is
sues registered gains extending from
fractions to 3 points. United States
Steel opened with 10000 shares up to
1872 or within a fraction of its maxi
mum attained last Saturday. Shipping
shares were represented by Marine
preferred and Atlantic. Gulf and West
Indies, the latter at a new record.
