Corn and oats governed mainly by
the action Of wheat. Wet weather,
though, tended somewhat to sustain
corn. Besides gossip was current
that the yield OF corn would prove

MOTORS MAKE GAIN
IN MART ADVANCE
Extension Operations Set Rec
ord for Recent Months,
$4,000 Sales.

NEW YORK, Sept. 14.-On the
most extensive operations of any
session in recent months the stock
market Wednesday made some note
worthy accessions TO its recent re-
covery. Sales totaled SIS, 900 shares.
Trading was very confusing, how
ever, early strength giving way to
.irregularity at midday. Another
vigorous rebound later was impaired
by heavy profit taking, this in some
instances cancelling gains at the
close.
On the exchange call money open
ed at per cent, with abundant
offerings at Alp outside. Time loans
were made at 1-2 per cent, even
for longer periods and a slight con-
cession was noted in the rate for
commercial paper. OF all the usual
leaders oils were relatively back
ward, most of the foreign and high
grade domestic issues denoting pres
sure. Steels and equipments domin-
ated the list, especially Baldwin and
railway steel spring.
Motors Make Gain.
Shippings and motors, also the
motor accessories made substantial
contributions TO the advance, with
chemicals and paper and leather
specialties. Dealing in rails were
limited to secondary issues AMI cop
pers reacted On trade conditions.
Further heavy buying Of dollar eX-
change in London for British and
other interests precipitated sharp re
versals in the local foreign exchange
market. virtually all European re
mittances weakening, especially
francs and marks.
The bond market, including lib
critics. was mostly higher on en-
larged dealings. Among foreign
issues the strength Of Cuba cane
sevens and heaviness Of United King
doms Of 1887 were contrasting fea-
lures. Total sales (par value) were
