.BUOYANCY MUCH INEVIDENCE IN THE
 STOCK MARKET
Coal Strike May Become a Factor in Many Lines of Manufacture Unless Set
 clement Is Made
By Associnted Press

New York, April 12.-Buoyancy best describes the tone of the stock market during today's early and in- termediate stages, the later dealings being characterized by considerable irregularity. Sales of about 1,65o,00O shares constituted a record for the current movement and the number of separate issues traded in prob ably established a precedent.
 Lower money rates. cumulative in- dications of industrial and commer- cial betterment and higher quota tions for such basic commodities as the oils, pig iron and finished iron and steel were among the develop ments which continued to stimulate bullish sentiment and diminish the short interest.
 The one discordant or pessimistic note was sounded by the coal strike authorities referring to that situation as likely to become a factor in many lines of manufacture in the near fu- ture.
 Coal shares were dull and rails as a whole contributed only nominally to the days business. Mexican oils were sold on rumors of disagree ment between that government and American interests regarding export taxes and steady profit taking de- tracted from the strength of leading motors.
 Gains of 1 to almost 5 points dur ing the forenoon were made largely under the auspices of equipments, do- mestic oils, junior steels, leather paper specialties and shippings, to- baccos and chain store issues. Wool worth rising on the declaration or the extra dividend.
 The only sharp reversal of the ses- sion came in the final hour when Mexican Petroleum fell almost , points from it's early best and caused other leaders to react 1 to points. The one striking exception was American Locomotive which forge& steadily ahead closing at gain of points.
 Cali loans opened at AZ per cent, hut the light demand at that rate caused a reduction to per cent in the second hour. More time funds were placed at AZ per cent for SO and 60 days, but longer dates held around 4% per cent. Reversing yes terday's trend, the German rate was the only exception to the higher level registered by a majority or to- day's foreign exchange quotations Eterling demand bills were strong at 441%: Allied remittances gained to points and greater strength was shown by Czecho- Slavakian bills. The Greek rate was unchanged, but oeai- fngs in that remittance were nomi- nal on the unsettled conditions re- ported from Athens.
