Movement Is Confusing.

| The movement was altogether pro-
fessiona1 and confusing from the fact
that it was restricted largely to issues
like Cuban American Sugar. Willys-Over-
land. National Enameling and Rock IS
| land.
United States Steel continued under
pressure, but improved later on the
advance in allied shares, notably Re
public Iron, Colorado Fuel and Slosse
Sheffield. which gained l TO over 3
points.
The unchanged American Smelling
dividend caused some disa ppolntment
the list showing heaviness at noon.
Bonds were steady.
Some Substantial Advances Later.
Activity at higher prices was resum-
ed in the afternoon, various issues.
including coppers, the motor group
and high-priced specialtles recording
substantial advances.
United States Steel and other leaders
also were in better demand.
Prices Make Good Gains.
With the afternoon well advanced the
market seemed to lose much of its in
decision and apathy. Little Steel paced
the recovery with rally to 63l2, which
was enough to make the bears thor
oughly scared and they turned to cover
with haste. The rally extended here
and there throughout the list. even the
rails, which during the morning hours
had moved indifferentiy, scoring about
a point gain.
The street was somewhat disappointed
at the failure Of the Smelling directors
to increase the dividend, but when the
strength elsewhere developed friends OF
Smelling were not slow in giving 1t good
support with the rest of the industriais,
and the recovery Of / u points was we'll
maintained.
Baldwin Locomotive rose to 1l3A,
better than 2 points gain.
Crueible Steel rewarded it's friends
with an advance of 2as net, but AS from
the low of the morning. Lackawanna
Steel gained points; Maxwell Motors.

port that it had been taken over by
Crucible Steel. 3 points: Studebaker.
ga. while Industrial Alcohol, the ir-
regular sensation Of the day, rose to
1885,, a 5-point gain. and dropped to
1881, better than a 5-point loss.
The closing was strong.
