FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKET WAS ACTIVE.
Extensive Selling Was Prompted bS
 Peace Proposals from Rome.

1 New York Aug 1.-The stock mar | ket gave promise at the outset of to- days more active trading of continu = ing it's irregular rise of the previous session, but reversed it's course all most immediately on extensive selling prompted by the peace proposals from Rome. Additional reason for concern was furnished by the gyrations of va rious specia1tieS under pool control. General Motors was a typical instance, opening at an advance of 1-2 points and driving the shorts in that and ota- CT speculative issues to hasty retreat War shares were steadily liquidated after peace reports gained currency. Bethlehem Steel reacted from it's ad- vance of almost two points and closed at a net loss of If points. U. S. Steel fell back sharply from it's top quotation of 125 3-4 to 123 IA, finish ing a slight fraction above its mini
 mum.
 Shippings, tobaccos, Industrial Alec hol and some of the seni-war stocks were affected in lesser degree by the heavy selling of the final hour, and sugars yielded 1 to 2 points with leath- CTS and secondary equipments. Iii general final prices were only slightly over lowest quotations. Total sales amounted to 505, 900 shares.
 Most of the days call loans were gain placed at 1-2 per cent, with slight relaxation later. Times rates were quotably unchanged, but actually firner on the preparation now making for another payment to the Liberty loan.
 Slight betterment in Italian remit tances was the only feature of the nominal exchange market, rubles hold ing steady.
 Liberty bonds were again in de- mand, the activity in that issue at 59.96 to~par, at which they closed, making up a considerable part of the enlarged dealings in that division. To- tai sales of bonds (par value) aggre gated $4770,00
