about by big expansion in market trans

day necessarily would be for a three day
minimum. thus giving lenders better re-
turns than usual on that class OF loan.
One OF the arguments advanced by the

that at the time the money pool was

any undue expansion OF borrowings for

The Copper Reports.

In the face OF extremely bad quarterly
statements made yesterday by the four
porphyry copper companies their stocks
advanced rapidly In the late trading.
While this seemed to some a paradox
II was explained in well informed quar-
ters that the selling of the copper shares.
specially Utah. had been sadly overdone.
All day Thursday the story was circulated
throughout the financial district that
Utah Copper was going TO make the
poorest showing OF its entire corporate
career. And the story was true, as no
one who had watched the copper situa
ton doubted. There was therefore a we'll
defined movement among traders pro-
fessional and otherwise. TO sell Utah
Copper and some of the others short,
in anticipation of an abrupt decline when
the reports were published. What these
shorts failed to take into consideration
was that by their own heavy selling and
the selling Of previous days and weeks
the bad statements had been discounted
so that there was really no reason for
further decline.

GOSSIP OF WALL STREET.


Bearish operators VINO figured that
they would have things all their own
way on account of the usual week end
profit taking and the distinctly unfavor-
able statements OF the porphyry COM
panies were awakened rudely In the last
hour yesterday. In the first place they
had misjudsed entirely the amount OF
public interest that had been enticed
into the dealings by the rising prices.
Secondly, the thought had not struck
them that possibly the market had dis
counted all the bad news. even with re-
spect to the coppers. When. therefore,
the group which operates on the short
side OF the market from an uptown hotel
and which is known as the Wall Street
Bolsheviki resumed activity on the short
side Il found that not only could 1t
make no impression on stocks but that
there was substantial buying on all re-
actions. The rest was easy for the bulls.
They bid prices up and in the last few
minutes there was something on the or
der Of bear panic around the copper
posts.
