STOCKS

New York. June 3o.-Today's ctock
market was very dull and most often
uncertain, dealings being largely in
the nature Of short coverings. Sales
appropriated $4,000 shares, the
smallest total for a full session in
many weeks.
Call money rose to 5 1-2 per cent
later. but Mexican Petroleum and the
more obscure oils and s~pecialties
showed decided Improvement. The
closing was firm.
Rails, oils, shippings and steels
were the strong features at the
opening OF today's stock market.
Short covering. based on the growing
conviction that further railroad la
Dor trouble would be averted, gave
impetus to the higher range of
prices. New York. Chicago and st.

ditions remained very unsettled, how
ever. as indicated by yet another low
record for the German mark at

Apart. from the rails, where early
gains were maintained or enhanced,
prices dropped back sharply before
