WALL. STREET

New York. March 2.--Stock
trading today represented little
more than a contest of wits be-
tween professional bulls and bears,
the advantage resting with the con-
structive element at the firm close.
Features OF the recovery during
the final hour included Atlantic
Gulf, Baldwin Locomotive, Cruel
bic Steel, Mexican Petroleum, To-
bacco Products and Kansas City
Southern at net gains of one to four
points.
The days turnover of ATS, 900
shares encompassed a greater va
riety of issues, including obscure
specialties many of which suffered
at the hands of the shorts.
The money market was slightly
easier, call loans declining from Z
to 6 per cent at midday.
Movements of foreign exchange
We're followed with more than
usual interest for some light on the
outcome of the London indemnity
conference. Influential bankers
were of the opinion. however, that
definite action by the allies might
wait on the installation of the new
administration.
Remittances TO leading European
centers were lower. but business
again centered in bills on London
and Paris. The English rate eased
only a fraction from yesterday,
while the French quotation inclined
to heaviness and Norway and Den
mark showed marked weakness.
Liberty issues and domestic rails
and industrials were comparatively
steady, but foreign or International
bonds denoted further uncertainty
arising from the situation abroad.
Total sales. par value. $40, $50, 900.
