After EARLY Weakness, Rail-

Rise Sharply; Cotton
Lower, as Wheat Gains

traders whose activity at the market.
place depends ON their Judgment Of in
'ernal technical factors after the un-
impressive opening yesterday adjudged
the market ready for an upward re-
bound. Professional spectators deemed
the fact that the sensational declines
IN Mexican oil shares had failed to de-
moralize the industrial list generally as
indicative of a strong position, and on
the basis of this diagnosis shorts be-
| gan to cover toward the end Of the first
hour of trading.
Before the upturn prices were frac-
tionally lower, and Mexican Petroleum
somersaulted to a new low level tbe
most depressed since 1918. The fail
ure of this development to cause gen
erai uneasiness precipitated a cover
ing movement, which first carried Mex
Pete higher and gradually radiated to-
ward all the other trading posts. By
the time trading for the day was over
both railroad and industrial shares had
rallied vigorously. During the rise
the volume of trading broadened and
almost three times as many shares
changed owners as on the previous day,
which was the dullest of the year.
The sharp rallies in the stock market,
attributed to short covering and specu
iatlve buying for quick turn, reflected
no significant change in outside de-
velopments. Before the trading day
was over it was known that Republic
and Lackawanna had followed the
leadership of Bethlehem in formally
announcing lower steel quotations.
Later in the day the United States
Steel Corporation, generally consid-
cred the leader, but this time the fol-
lower, also brought its prices in line
with those of its competitors. This de-
velopment means bringing formal pub
lie prices into accord with those re-
Gently privately quoted and the an
nouncements had no visible effect on
the market. The steel shares gained
with the rest.
Call money was quoted at 5h per
cent all through the day. In the in
ternational money market sterling and
the European exchanges again turned
lower.
Cotton was weaker ON realizing, but
the firmness in the stock market mini
mized losses at the close. Further
rains in the Northwest and predictions
of heavy receipts Of wheat in the near
future caused heavy selling Of wheat
early yesterday, but export buying and
the improvement in speculative senti-
ment caused prices to regain their
losses and to close with net advances
from II to 21A cents q bushel

In Wall Street
Support for Mexican Petroleum

Although there was nothing tangible
In the days news to explain the sud
den upward squirt in Mexican Petro-
leum yesterday, following several weeks
Of steadily declining market, it was
evident that supporting orders were in
the market, something which has been
absent for many days. The result was
that the shorts took fright and by the
close they literally fell over one an
other in their efforts to cover. At the
close the stock had advanced to 101 u =,
following an early morning price of
87%. The last sale recorded net
gain of ten points over Tuesdays final
transaction. The other Doheny issues.
Pan American A and B, also showed
the result of hurried short covering,
showing respective gains Of 83s and
7N points.

The Basic Money Rate

Prospects of further reduction in
the Federal Reserve Bank of New
York's commercial discount rate before
the end of the current year are not
promising, according to an officer in
cne Of the large downtown banking in

is likely to continue as the basic COM

view Of the demands that are to be
made upon the market in the future.

Big Operator Begins Buying

Revising Inyesfmensa

There Is one bond house in the
Street whose business has been largely
the purchase of entire issues and the
direct retailing Of the securities to the
individual investor. that is now doing
over 80 per cent of its business in re-
v1sing investment lists. It claims that
in one day it increased the safety and
nearly doubled the income yield for
eight customers. The point the firm
calls attention to is that market prices
have not yet been readjusted to anv-
thing like the new prices of invest
ment funds.

Banking Relations Resumed

Practically no change in the rela-
tions between American and German
banking institutions is expected to fol-
low the impending proclamation of
peace by President Harding All of
the leading New York banks already
have resumed their normal relations
with their correspondents in Germany
and substantial credits have been
opened here for German account. The
ability of German interests to open
banking credits here depends, bankers
said yesterday, upon their ability to
pay, and formal declaration of peace
will not alter the situation whatso-
ever.

More Time Money

A New York bank placed for West

yesterday, making the largest single
operation Of the kind in a great many
months. The money was placed with
different brokers at to 61a per cent
and the loans ran from sixty to ninety
days. The security put up by the bor-
rowers consisted in some of the loans
Of all industrial collateral and Of mixed
collateral in others. The development
was regarded in the Street as signifi-
cant and indicative of the general
easing tendency.

were wolf and deer and bear pelts on

Oh thelr journey they drove through
rolling, grassy, Towering prairies and
up a long, hard hill to the small log
cabin settlement of New Salem, nli-
nois, on the shore of the Sangamon.
They halted about noon in the middle
OF this little prairie village, opposite
small clapboard house. A sign hung
over Its door which bore the rudely
lettered words: "Rutledge's Tavern"
A long, slim, stoop-shouldered young
man sat In the shade Of an oak tree
that stood near corner of the tavern,
with number of children playing
around him. He sat leaning against
the tree trunk reading a book. He
had risen as they came near and stood
looking at them, with the book under
his arm. Samson says in his diary
that he looked like ian untrimmed
yearling colt about sixteen hands
high. He got up slow and kept rising
till his bush Of black tousled hair was
six feet four above the ground. Then
he put on an old straw hat without
any band on it. He reminded me Of
Philemon Bakers fish rod, he was
that narler. For humliness I'd match
him against the world. His hide was
kind o. yaller and leathery. 1 could
see he was still In the gristle-a little
over twenty-but his face was marked
up by worry and weather like a mans.
| never saw anybody SO long between
joints. Don't hardly see how he
could tell when his feet got cold"
He wore a hickory shirt without
collar or coat or jacket. One suspen-
der held up his coarse, llnsey trousers,
the legs of which fitted closely and
came only 20 blue yarn zone above
his heavy cowhide shoes. Samson
writes that he fetched a sneeze and
wiped his big nose with a red hand
kerchief" as he stood surveying them
in silence, while DR.. John Allen, who
had sat on the doorstep reading a
paper-a kindly faced man Of middle
age with a short white beard under
his chin-greeted them cheerfully.
"Where do you hail from2 the
