general characteristics we're concerned
today's stock supplied little of anything
in the way Of novelty from the per-
formance of recent sessions. While the
outlook for an immediate settlement OF
the rail and coal strikes is not quite
clear the greater portion of the hnan.
cial community continued TO pin their
faith on an early adjustment of both
questions by Washington. In all
events. the market contingent seemed
to find favorable side In the weak
and developments In the labor troubles.
To come down to the pan facts of the
case It is II toss.up whether more In.
terea centered In the strike situation
or what the Studebaker directors would
do on the dividend. Regardless Of the
influences the trend was distinctly up.
ward and new high prices were COM
mon all over the list.
Washington advices, however. inti-
mating the rail executives would un-
doubtcdly accept President Harding \
compromise had decided strengthen
ing influence on the entire rail list.
The street seemed to be cock sure that
means Of settling the seniority question
satisfactorily to both sides would be
promptly forthcoming after the gen.
eral meeting Of executives tomorrow.
There was really no actual news 10
come to the surface to confirm this. but
there was enough assurance coming by
the grape vine route to enlist the ma
iority of the stree ito belief actual set
temont of the rail strike was close at
hand. In addition, there were also
many reasons for supposing the coal
strike situation was also improving.
The 2h per cent call money rate
and the declaration OF the extra divi-
dend of $3.50 share in addition to
the quarterly of $3.50 share by the
Studeoaker directors supplied Il
strong stimulus to forward movement.
After the first burst Of strength
profit taking set in and moderate re-
rrSSions were scored by some of the
leaders. The heaviest pressure was
directed against the oil and tire
stocks. which declined l to nearly 3
points. Mexican Petroleum moved
back "a. points but recovered most OF
ita loss in Inter dealings.
Towards noon there was heavy
accumulation Of buying orders and
the whole market moved upward under
leadership Of rails and equipments.

"Pennsy" Also Made New Top
on Prospects Of Settlement
Of Coal Strike

American Stores and Pennsylvania
Railroad continued star attractions Of
the local market. Roth made new high
prices. On the exchange Of two lots
American Stores moved up sharply to
another new high record price Of 13b
In the earlv trading. This was a fur.
ther advance Of 3 points over the top
figures recorded on Saturday and made
a net gain Of 10 points over the clos.
ing quotation Of Friday.
The movement again was conspicuous
by reason Of the relatively small
amount Of stock changing hands In the
upward swing. Pennsylvania Railroad:
on much more active dealings, reached
new figure for the movement at 47& |.
or within a point Of the top price OF
1910. Banking interests close to
"Pennsy" management were outspoken
in their belief Of a quick adjustment Of
the prolonged coal strike. They went
NO far az to state that plans IRE already
under consideration for the prompt dis
tribution Of cars in the bituminous dis
trict.
While lacking individual feature, the
dealings In the general list were ex-
