sion was obviously restricted by the I'M
certainties resulting from labor condl-
lions, especially as applied to the stee.
industry.
United States steel, which had shown
signs of strength prior to the publication
of the Gompers' message to President
Wilson, was under pressure. showing an
extreme decline of almost 2 points. AL
lied shares were firm at the outset, but
yielded / to points later with severa!
of the more popular equipments, motors
and rails.
Aside from Studebaker, the motor divi-
sion was firm to strong with oils, but
miscellaneous issues registered little
change
General news of the day included the
weekly reviews of the mercantile agen-
cles which stressed the more acute in
dustrial situation and the publication OF
several railroad statements of earnings
for July Most notable among the latter
was the Union Pacific report showing
heavy decrease in net.
The most interesting feature of the
bank statement was the heavy expan-
sion of actual loans attributable both
to the weeks greater activity in the
stock market and September l withdraw
