Points of Strength

Oil Stocks Display am I'm.
usual Buoyancy; Indus
trials Give a Better Per-
formance Near the Close

Wall Street closed the week yester-
day with an extremely irregular stock
market, in which there were many
points Of pronounced strength. The
E oil shares, for example, composed q
group Of stocks which displayed marked
ouoyancy at times and which moved in
a manner that must have disconnected
the professional traders who have late
ly been active sellers Of the oils. Mex
ican Petroleum stood out prominently,
advancing more than points net on q
total Of business which made 1t the
cader of the two-hour session at the
exchange.
The first half Of the forenoon's trad
ing presented market in which prices
backed and filled, and the market
seemed to be getting nowhere in par
ticular. Afterward as Mexican Petrol
cum and others of the oils began to
forge ahead the tone changed and
other industrials gave better per-
formance. Much Of the buying came
from traders who had sold stocks
earlier in the week on the news Of fall
ing commodity prices. The motor
shares displayed a steader tone as the
week closed and better support was
accorded the steel stocks after some
iiItiaI liAeSuldFlly.
Expectations of q favorable bank
statement we're realized. The exhibit
of the Federal Reserve Bank of New
York reveals extraordinary improve
ment in the position at this center, and
the banks reserve position is the best
so far this year. At 49.7 per cent the
ratio of total reserves to deposit and
Federal Reserve note liabilities COM
bined showedsan increase of AZ per cent
in a single week This is the highest
ratio since the week of December 10,
1919, when the ratio stood at AZ per
cent. The Improvement was largely
accounted for by increased gold hold
ings of the bank. Gold to the credit Of
the local bank in the settlement fund
at Washington jumped $75,O0o,O 900, pre-
sumably because of the beginning of q
return flow of funds from the interior.
The bond market continued to dis.
play firm tone yesterday, and trading
was active for Saturday. The coming
week is expected to see the offering Of
number Of small new issues, as the
bankers are desirous of taking advan-
tage IF the improved demand for bonds
of all kinds.
The grain market continued in a
state Of unsettlement yesterday, with
further sharp declines in wheat and
oats. Cotton was also under pressure,
New-York tribune., 1920-09-26

French government account, In the
gold settlement fund at Washington the
bank gained approximately s75,ooo,OoO.
Inns gam represented the transfer to
the account Of the local bank of gold
which had been held by other reserve
banks. The increase in this item ap
parently indicates return flow of
funds from the interior. Heretofore
in recent weeks the current has been
toward the interior, as the banks have
had to take care of the heavy demands
due to the pressure of the crop-moving
season.
The local bank, the statement shows,
has paid off all it's borrowings from
other reserve banks. This item week
ago stood at 700. United States
Treasury borrowings at the local baras
were reduced last week from S17l,-
$4,000 to $67,394,5O0 as the result Of
the sale Of new certificates of indebt-
edness. Uncollected items and other
deductions were reduced from $780,
!. 900 to S170, ,463 900 as the result of
the completion of transactions incl
dental to tax payments and certificate
operations.
There was practically no change in the
item Of borrowings by member banks
against government war obligations, al
though discounts Of other bills increased
from S27s,178,000 to $354,84S.675.

The Dollar i'm Foreign Exchange

The market in foreign exchange has
continued narrow during the last week,
so that it has required comparatively
small operations to bring about sub
;stantial price changes. Continued
heaviness of sterling has been at
tributed largely to French government
operations in connection with the
Angl o-French loan maturity. The head
of the foreign exchange department of
one of the large Wall Street banks
holds the opinion that the market in
sterling should improve as soon as it is
definitely known that the French have
completed their operations.
Rates on the Scandinavian countries
have worked somewhat lower in sym
pathy with a decline in London, where
offerings of Danish, Swedish and Nor
wegian bills have been somewhat
.arger of late.

Big Improvement
In Reserve Shown
BY Regional Bank

Striking improvement in the reserve
position Of the Federal Reserve Bank
of New York was revealed yesterday,
when the institution issued its state
ment for the week ended September "a
1t was shown in the report that the
ratio of total reserves to deposit and
Federal Reserve hote liabilities com
bined had risen from 39.5 to 43.7 per
cent in the course Of the past week.
This was the highest ratio reported SO
far this year.
The improvement in the position of
the bank was made possible largely by
reason Of heavy increase in the gold
holdings Of the local institution. Total
gold held by the bank increased from
sl4S,276,000 to $240,3A4,S09. OF this
gain Approximately $1S,000,00o was ac-
