New York, June 26.-The promin- ence of railway shares al materially higher levels was the most significant feature of today's trading. which again from professional sources The in quiry for rails was attended by re- ports that the Interstate Commerce Commission would approve in large mea sure the request for higher rates, which become operative next Sunday, unless otherwise ordered.
 Minor or reorganized rails figured to unwonted extent in the rise, es- pecially the western and southwestern divisions. In several instances, mo- tably St. Paul, which registered a gross advance of two points, improve ment was ascribed to highly favorable conditions
 Movements otherwise were no less confusing that the previous dIy. United States Steel ard related indus trials denoted further pressure at ex- treSne recessions of from one to three points. Motors yielded one to five points, Studebaker being the weakest feature, and coppers, shippings and oils were restrained by adverse Wash ington adYances.
 Central Leather reacted three points to 95 1-2 after announcement of the extra" two per cent dividend that rate falling under expecta tions. Ohio Gas was the weakest stock in the list, dropping almost ' points to 126 1-2. The decline lacked explanation other than that involved in the company's proposed new financing. Peoples Gas made a further rally of IA points, but virtually all of this was later relinquished.
