COPPER AND STEEL SHARES FEATURED
 FINANCIAL WORLD
Relaxed Money Rates Were an Undoubted Factor in the Days Operations, Call
 Loans Weakening
Rr Assoclnted Pres.

New York. May ts.-Tradlng in the stock market today asain con- eentrated largely In coppers and steels. with a liberal sprinkling of oils and the many unclassifled spe- cialtles recently brought forward, evidently under professional aus pices
 Relaxed money rates were an un doubted factor in the days opera tions. Call loans were openly quoted throughout the session at 352 per cent, but that figure was shaded In private offerings and much of the 30 to 90 day money was secured at per cent.
 The demand for metals and kin dred stocks resulted in the extreme advances of to 2is points. with AnaeNda, Chino. Ckile. Utah. Gran by, Shatuck Arizona. American Zinc common and preferr d, Butte and Superior, American Smelling and National Lead the most conspicuous features.
 Among steels. the movement was uncertain. Midvale easing two points on denial of the reported merger with Bethlehem. The latter was sluggish with Crucible, Lackrwana and U. s. Steels. but Republic, Vana- dium, Iron Products and Colorado Fuel rose 1 1a to 2lS points of their best.
 Foreign shares were strongest of the oils until the later dealings, when Mexican Petroleum gave way to selling pressure. while Cosden, Producers and Refiners and several of the less prominent domestic is- sues made substantial Eains.
 Dullness, with occasional reaction ary tendencies marked the trading in motors and equipments. Sugars, feathers, textiles and chemicals hardened, Davison making a spurt on news that the company had won suit involving a considerable sum of money. Rails were languid. with belated rise in Delaware, Lacka- wanna and Western and moderate strength In Reading, Southern Pa cific and New Haven.
 Only nominal business was re- ported in oreiGn exchange. but the feature of that market was another rise in sterling bills to the level equaling their recent maximum of the last three years. Strength of the British rate was coincisent with the better showing made by the Bank of England. Practically the entire continental list was lower. however, Italian bills showing most heaviness. Of the central European remittances the Austrian rate was weakest, its decline eing attributed To delay In the negotiation of loan
