Wnat otherwise would have been an ex-
sssiisAy irregular stock market yester.
gay into session in which gains wara
largely preponderant. Whefhar ,h;s

aofS OF professional traders to cheel,
reaetienary tendencies was not annar-
ent, but before the close MANY indus-
trial stocks were caught in the ,nw.rd
swing and had definitely started TO
hlgner Levels. Sufficient inertia or
instability still attached to this d;x;.
sion to prevent full elimination of tho
effect OF practically two days Of unset.
tiement and the average price level was
shade lower than at Wednesdays
close. This was more than offset. how
ever, by the improved position Of the
rails.
The relatively poorer performance of
industrial stocks was in the main at-
trlnutahse to the disturbing effects of
precipitate decline in United States
Rubber preferred, extending to more
than 10 points and accompanied bv a
loss of about a points in the common
stock of this company. From the
strictly speculative standpoint-and II
could be interpreted from no othar
position on-this break, presumably engi-
neered to effect a reaction in the GEN
eral list, was without the intended
result, failing to induce selling on anv
broad scale or to impair resistance to
the decline in other issues. The attack
was predicated on unfavorable dividend
rumors, and these were so thin that the
stocks concerned quickly rebounded re-
covering half of the lost ground The
most conspicuously strong group of in
dustrial issues comprised the steel
shares, which were in demand on the
belief that the marking up of rail
prices by the United States Steel Cor
poration and expanding. operations
fofecast the approach of a period of
relative price stability,
Except for fractional losses in Lib
erty bonds due to firm money, invest
ment issues were consistently strong.
Call money mounted to per cent. the
highest of the week, as preparations
for to-day's government operations
caused restriction of the supply.
The foreign exchange market. after
opening lower in sympathy with Lon
don, rallied we'll and quotations closed
with slight net gains in most instances.
Sterling, starting at $4.41 Ia for
cables, the lowest in many weeks, adj
vanced to $4.421s. other principal cur
rencies acting similarly.
Increasing new crop receipts unsettled
the cotton market, prices at the close
ranging from points higher to 10
points lower. Wheat prices reacted on
expectations of an enlarged movement
following settlement of the railroad
strike, the December option selling for
the first time this season below 81,
and May going to a new low for the
1922 crop. The close was 3-4 to / Is

I'm Wall Street
The s9arket Raltv

Despite the drastic bseak in United
States Rubber first preferred in the
sarly trading yesterday, whicG for \
time had an unsettling effect on the
general list the market later rahied
sharply, with the railroad stocks as
suming the leadership. The better
fealing induced by the settlement 81
the shopmen's strike on more chan
fifty roads was the cause Of an uptarn
that carried such issues as Atchison and
Rock Island we'll above their previous
highs for the year, while ether issues
advanced to within a fraction of their
highs. Among the specialties CoIun,-
bia Gas and Pacific Gas and Electric
scored sensational gains, the former
mounting five points to lf4h. United
States SteePs final sale at 1o5A was
the best price Of the day. The an
nouncement that the corporation will
accept orders for rails until September
30 at $40 ton, after which the price
will be raised to $43, was generally
viewed as a clever bit Of business
strategy which will bring in a heavy
volume of business between now and
the end of the month.

Cosden shares continued to advance
yesterday despite the denial OF the
Standard Oil Company of New Jersey
that it is negotiating for controi
of the company, and the stock ae the
close was within a point of the yeaS's
high OF b3A. After the close Of thu
market 1T was announced unoficialiv
that the reported deal with Royal

a few days ago that the Rovai Dutch
had an option on the stock, which It
apparently has failed to exercise.

Bad Order Locomotives

Railroad officials estimate that the
number of bad order locomotives on
their lines comprise about 35 per cent
of the total at the end of August. The
report Of the Interstate Commerce
Commission OH the condition of rail-

mately half were in need of repairs.
The latest estimate would indicate sub

missions investigation was conducted.

The purely theoretical view that gov
ernment Withdrawals do not cause a
disturbance in call money was again
upset at the marketplace Yesterday.
There were other factors at work
toward sitter quotations, but prepara-
tions for the withdrawal to-day Of
S46,600,000 from the banks in this dis
trict in connection with government
operations was, in the consensus of
opinion, major influence. The open
ing and renewal charge of per cent
held until early afternoon, when a
quick advance, first to AZ per cent
and then to 5 per cent, occurred. This
was not due TO any increase in de-
mand, but entirely to the adjustments
made necessary by the calling of loans
on broad scale.
A New Low Yield on Equipment Trusts
The $6,645,000 Illinois Central one to
fifteen year equipment trust certifi-
Gates, which Kuhn, Loeb G. Co. placed
privately yesterday, bore a coupon rate
of An per cent, the first time since
the war that an issue of this charac-
ter has carried so low q rate. Tne
notes, which were taken largely by in
surance companies, were priced to
yield between 4.90 and 4.95 per cent.
Recent equipment issues nave carried

been sold at par or at slight dis
count.
