Mining and Financial Nous
BY REVIEW LEASED W,RE.

New York. March 21.-Anothsr brisk inquiry for liberty bonds was the distinguishing feature of today's session of the stock exchange. Deal ing in stocks diminished steadily until the final hour when moderate activity set in under lead of industrials and oils.
 These shares were favored because of an advance in crude oil prices and intimations from Washington that the new schedule for steel and iron would in all probability eliminate existing ineQualities.
 Texas company was foremost among fhe oils at an extreme gain of five points and United States Steel was reused out of its previous torpor, gaining almost a point on relatively heavy accumulation.
 Early pressure upon rails. motors and tObaccOs was partly overcome in the general rally of the close but some gains, notably that of Union Pacific, proved only temporary. Sales amount ed to 260,000 shares.
 Liberty issues again constituted the sole features of the bond market, sec end 4's gaining almost one per cent but reacting sharply later. Sales, par valne. aggregated s6.650.000.
 United States bonds, old issues, un- changed on call.
