FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKET GAINED STRENGTH,
Rise in Prices Was Frequently Retard-
ed by Renewed Selling.

New York, May .21.-Stocks as
whole today recovered much OF the
ground lost during yesterdays setback,
although the rise was frequently re-
tarded by renewed selling. Both in
breadth and volume the session was the
most contracted of any in the past
fortnight.
During the forenoon and n the final
hour, pressure against U. S. Steel
served as a deterrent, though Offset
by the strength of other industrials
and equipments. Steel closed at lOS
SIS, a net gain of 3-S.
, Rails, coppers, shippings and tobac-
cos engrossed speculative attention
in the later dealings, Marine preferred
making a new high quotation for the
present movement and Sumatra To-
bacco repeating it's recent maximum
at 129 1-2.
Baldwin Locomotive again featured
the distinctive equipments at wide
fluctuations, closing with a net gain OF
large fraction after having risen al
most three points. Copper strength
ened one to- 2 1-2, presumably in an
ticipation of tomorrow's meeting of the
producers with the war board when
higher price schedule is expected.
The movement in rails centered
around low priced issues, New Haven,

! substa ntial advances, some of which
were lar forfeited in part. Reading

giving help. Books furnished by the
American Library Association were to
be seen on all sides
Hearing firing at a distance, we
drove down the road and found a

half an hour recess to buy goods.
