SMART RALLY IN
TRACTION SHARES
General Price oUeme n
Ragged, With Thin Market
for Indctire Issues

Dealings in the local market We're
broader and more active than wit
messed for some time. While price
movement was mixed and confusing,
there were a number of notable fea-
lures of strength, more conspicuously
the local traction shares. In view of
the recent violent shakedown of these
issues, and the existing unsettled state
Of all the principal markets, the recov-
cry in this particular group naturally
came in for more attention.
No special reason was offered, or was
to be found to explain the reversal
movement, but the demand for the first
time in some weeks was greater than the
supply. As a result Philadelphia Rapid
Transit was advanced to 10, 81 above
the low price made in the earlier trad
ing, with several unusually large blocks
of stock changing hands at the higher
quotations. Union Traction, in sym
pathy, moved up to 2iI, while Phila d,
dclphia Traction remained well pegged
at so.
In the general list not only we're
prices ragged but the market continued
TO be painfully thin for number of
the inactive specialties. General
Asphalt preferred was on the tobog-
gan again, breaking to Sc, after rallying
at the opening to 81. Two dollars was
clipped off Brill at "a on nominal deal
, ings.
Philadelphia Electric met strong sup
port at Pig. rallying to 21 17s. United
| Gas Improvement appeared to have
found a sold bottom at 40 On small
dealings Electric Storage Battery after
opening at 116 fell to 115. The war
rants yielded to 14&. Lake Superior
was Il better at 1913. Pennsylvania
held above 40 on light dealings, while
Lehigh Navigation surrendered u point
at 5SA2.
Little comfort was offered by the Of.
fcials of leading banks after the board
meetings today of any immediate i'm
| proyement in money market conditions
One of the more striking developments
reported was the marked increase in
bank loans. There was said to be ar
unprecedented demand for funds from
the interior bands from Maine to the
coast. While the demand is usually
heavy from the interior at this season
several officials stated today that never
before in their memory could they recall
such an urgency for bank loans.
