Stock Prices
Rise Slightly
I'm Dull Trade
Values Become Firm Follow
ing an Early Period of
Unsettlemeni; Quasi In
vestment Shares Firmesi

In spite Of the in,cnsifeation Of
strained relations In connection with
the railroad and mining strikes. specu-
lators who speak their mind at the
market place yesterday expressed a
favorable view Of the future OF busi-
ness BY bidding up the prices Of Sc
eurities moderately in an extremely
quiet session-one Of the least active
Of the year. In the FIRST hour Of trad
lng the market was most sensitive 10
the news OF the moment, and after a
period Of unsettlement prices became
Arm. indicating an impression that
the present disturbances would not
have fundamentally unfavoraoly
effect on the business recovery, which
the rising market has been discount
ing.
With the announcement that the
British government is planning to
send a delegation to the United States
in September in connection with the
negotiations for adjusting payment OF
the British debt 20 America the pound
sterling was firm. and most Of the Con-
tinental exchanges we're steady with
the exception Of marks. which turned
a shade lower. The recovery early last
week was partly the result OF cover
ing. and also a reflection Of the ex-
pectation Of a moratorium. That the
July IS instalment was paid was no
surprise TO those in close touch with
the plans OF the German Treasury.
Profit taking and short selling, after
the frmness in the cotton market last
week. resulted in q decline Of 25 to
IS points. Wheat quotations at the
final sales we're likewise IA 70 2%
cents bushel lower.
In the security markets the prevail
ing influence was the credit situation.
A fresh spur to investment buying
started last week when the Bank Of
England for the fourth time this year
signalized the return Of normal money
conditions by further reducing It's dis
count rate. Bond quotations again
moved higher yesterday, and the prices
Of third and fourth 4A per cent
Liberty bonds reached the highest level
yet quoted, and that Of the second Ans
was the peak quotation Of the year
thus far.
The demand for fresh credit for
speculative purposes was slight yes
terday. and funds were readily avail
able at 3 per cent. Colncident with the
rise in the bond market, stocks Of a
quasi-investment character we're firm
est In yesterdays narrow trading.

John D. Ryan, chairman OF the Ana
conda Copper Mining Company, wa,
quoted in dispatches 20 the financial
district from Butte, Mont, yesterday
as saying that June deliveries OF cop
per were greater than for any. month
except during the war period. The
statement was also credited 20 MF.
Ryan that scrap copper is practically "
used Nd throughout the world. The
property acquired by Anaconda from
the Anselmo Mining Company lies 20
the west Of the original mine when
the company acquired when II bought
copper properties in the Butte district
from former Senator william A. Clark.
The property carries mainly silver
zinc ores, but is understood also 20
have good copper possibilities. June
copper shipments are estimated 10 have
exceeded i7O,000,00O pounds, the larg-
est Of any peace month in the history
OF the industry. June shipments COM
pare with about 10000, 900 pounds In
May and 1875 100000 pounds a month in
the first quarter.

More Crude Oil Price Cuts

Word reached the financial district
yesterday that, following the cut IN
the price Of 25 cents a barrel in mid
continent crude oil last week, the vari.
Gus grades OF Pennsylvania crude had
been reduced similar amount "a
1925 a barrel. With these cuts in ef-
feet discussion centered around the ef-
feet on the price Of gasoline. +. J.
Bullock. vice president Of the Standard
Oil Company OF Indiana, was quoted
In Western dispatches as saying that
the company's figures on consumption
indicate there would be no gasoline
left in the mid-continent field by Au-
gust Is. and that rehncrs in that sec
tion inside Of six weeks would not be
able 20 fll orders for their own share
Of the country's consumption. This
was construed as meaning that II a
reduction in the price Of gasoline takes
place il will be slight.
