SHARES ON THE CURE RECOVER
IN CLOSING PERIOD OF MARKET

The market tone on the Curb yesterday
failed to develop any definite trend until
near the closing period, when the quota
tions OF the more prominent issues rallied
brislxly, with several issues lifting TO the
days high figures. This Improvement was
to some extent influenced by the covering
of contracts by those who attempted TO de-
press prices earlier in the session in the
absence of outside participation.
Speculative attention again was devoted
to the independent oil division. with the
strong feature being noted in General AS
phalt. which sold from lis to 1l912. Gill
land Oil advanced TO a new high at 90 12
in the early dealings and then about one
point from that figure. Simms Petroleum
yielded two points to &c and recovered
most of that decline in a sharp rally at the
close. Burknett Van Cleve was active at
2%.
While there was evidence of a strong
undertone in the industrial shares. trading
in this section was in restricted volume
and without any movement of material
Importance Submarine Boat and Loews
Incorporated were higher frac.ionally on
moderate dealings. Perfection Tire dis
played better tone, selling from ga to
3%.
Trading in the mining shares continued
in large volume, with number OF ma
terial advances recorded in the days deal
ings South American Gold made gain
of one point, selling TO Sla. and moderate
advances were shown in United Eastern
and Hecla Mines. This Improvement was
offset, however, by the weakness that de-
veloped in other parts. Mcnamara Silver
was subjected to heavy profit taking,
which was traced to Canadian interests.
After that selling had been completed the
price recovered sharply.
Most activity in the bond department
was shown in Allied Packers per cents,
which sold from SO to SO. Interborough
Rapid Transit rs were traded in at "a 4

Reserve Bank Again
Marks UpItsRate
on Acceptances

In keeping with the upward trend OF the
money market, the Federal Reserve Bank
again has raised it's open market purchase
rate on bankers acccptanccs 10 20 per
cent for 30 to 60 day bills. The buying
rate ON these bills has been 49l per cent
Some time ago the Federal Reserve Bank
advanced the rate on 90 day bills to per
cent for the best paper. No change in the
so day rate has been made since that time
Dealers in acceptances have not changed
their market rates as yet but 1t Is expected
that they viii meet the action OF the
Federal Reserve Bank by further adj
vance should the latter institution put
up it's rate on 80 day maturities.
The advance in the Federal Reserve
Bank rate for acceptanccS Is welcomed by
dealers who a few weeks ago, after con-
ference among themselves, requested the
bank TO revise its rates upward on the
ground that they were out OF line with
the money market to such an extent as
to interfere with the open market for ac-
ceptances 1t was shortly after this re-
quest was made that the Federal Reserve
Bank advanced its purchasing rate to con-
form more closely with open market
conditions.
Dealers in acceptances report a broader
demand for prime bills, now that the call
money market is nearly normal Both
local and country banks are buying bills.
