s20AD INQUIRY
FOR ACTIVE STOCKS
nited States Steel Rises to
Top Quotation With All
Allied Interests

VIEW York. August 6.-Renewal of
trading after the. stock markets double
recess was characterized by relatively
broad inquiry for active stocks. Pools
also found 1t easy to advance various
spei alties, tobaccos, oils and sugars be-
ing particularly responsive at extreme
gains of 2 to points.
Steels and associated shares also
moyed to higher levels, though experience
ing irregular impairment later on profit
taking. The war group in general aug
mented last weeks gains with Coppers,
Motors and Utilities.
United Steel was at an advance
of 17s points to 127%. it's top quotation
in almost month, and allied equipments
rose / to 3, although Bethlehem denoted
pressure.
Rails and shippings were apathetic
aside from the activity of secondary
transportation issues.
Developments over the weekend were
mostly of the sort to lend encourage
ment to the long account, bu<e large
percentage of the turnover, amounting
to about $4,000 shares, represented little
more than the closing of short contracts.
Call and time loans reflected market
Improvement in the local money market
as indicated by last Saturdays bank
statement, which reported an increase of
almost $62, 100000 in actual reserves, and
a gain of over sS1, 100000 in reserves of
member institutions held by the federal
reserve bank.
Foreign exchange was not materially
altered, but the. more hopeful view of
the Russian situation probably accounted
for the better tone of rubles. Gold i'm
ports continued, a total of 100000 be-
ing received from Canada since last Fri
day.
Bonds were irregular. Liberty 31as,
which now are being quoted in fractions
of hundredths instead of fiftieths were
fairly active, 1854 to &c. Total sales,
par value, aggregated $2650O00 United
States bonds cold issues were unchanged

GRAIN AND PRODUCE

Chicago, August 6.-Soaking rains in
Kansas and in parts of neighboring
states. together with a forecast of
showers today over the corn belt as
a whole, gave the price of corn de-
cided setback. Quotations closed nerv-
Gus, to 21s cents net lower at s1.16h
Q1.16Ss for December. and s1.13h q
.113% for May. Wheat finished unset
tied ~ cents down at $2.25 for Sep
TENDER, oats off l Y to rs cents and
provisions up 10 to as cents.
Benefits which the corn crop would
receive from the rains were guaged by
a significant dispatch dated Topeka,
saying the rain there had been the first
adequate drenching in two months. Ac-
cordingly the market was under selling
pressure from the outset. and there
were no rallies except of a transient
sort due to profit taking by shorts.
Bears were also encouraged by the
Missouri crop report indicating yield
of more than 20O,0o0,000 bushels
Increasing receipts acted as weight
on the value of wheat. For the first
time this season Kansas City and st.
Louis arrivals totalled above 100000
bushels Besides, threshing returns
from South Dakota were said to show
larger yields than had been expected.
Oats traders appeared to be growing
more and more impressed with a be-
lief that the 1917 oats crop had turned
out a record breaker. Many sections of
Illinois and Indiana reported virtually
a double crop.
Y Nearly all deliveries Of provisions
scared to new high price records The
ascent was in line with rise In the
value of hogs and of cotton seed oil.
Future quotations were as follows;
Wheat Omen High. Low. Close.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York, Agust 6.-In Isolated
places in Texas good showers occurred
since Friday. but no general rains. In
Oklahoma showers were general as
they were in Georgia and Alabama.
The trade felt that rather too much
rain fell in Georgia and not enough in
Texas. On these ideas the market was
bought up through the bidding on Oc-
tober, where the trade thinks the In
terest Is congested by the spinners
holding the contracts which have been
sold as hedges against spot holdings
Therefore there are few sellers when
bidding appears, which is thought 10
