STOCKS DISPLAY
 FIRM UNDERTONE
Dividends On Bethlehem Steel Common Stock
 Suspended

NEW YORK, July 25.-Stock prices displayed firm undertone in today's stock market, in the face of a suspen- sion of dividends on Bethlehem Steel common stock. Although the steel shares were reactionary and signs of heaviness appeared among some of the other industrials, bullish demonstra- tions were continued with unabated vigor in other sections of the list.
 Railroad shares retained the leader ship of the upward movement with fresh buying power developing in the coalers, most of which attained new peak prices for the year. Buying of this group was stimulated by the pub lication of the semi-annual report of the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western railroad showing net operating income of $7,261 900 or more than any, other six months period in the roads history. Lackawanna moved up, nearly points to new 1924 top at 130B and then eased t0N 12SA.
 Seventeen rails, more than half of which were eastern coalers, broke through the new high levels for the year. They included Delaware and Hudson, Lehigh Valley, Chesapeake and Ohio common and preferred, Baltimore and Ohio common and preferred, Pitts burg and West Virginia and Erie first preferred, the extreme gains ranging from small fractions to 4 points. Chi caeo Northwestern, Kansas City South ern common and preferred and Omaha also Ssold at their best prices of the year. ss
 Bethlehem Steel opened points low CT at 42 in direct reflection of the 'omis- sion of the dividend, but it recovered "' one-half of it's loss before the close. United States Steel common showed a net loss of 3s at 101A, the other in dependent issues showing only nominal changes.
 Reports of improving business condi- tions contained in the weekly mercan- tile reviews and the continued ease of money rates had favorable effect on sentiment. Good buying was noticed in the mail order, sugar and chemical and public utility shares, the list of new highs including Sears-R Roebuck, Mont gomery-Ward, American Express, Peo- nles Gas, Laclede Gas and Texas Gulf Sulphur. Other outstanding strong spots were General Electric, Cuban Cane preferred. Adams Express, .Asso- ciated Drygoods, Goodyear Tire pre- ferred, Kelsey Wheel, Kinney and Com pany, Manati Sugar, Punta Aegre Su- gar and Western Union all up Z to D points.
 Except for drop of about l F points each in the Pan-American issues, the oils and motors were practically fea- tureless. Wilson and Company issues fell back sharply on publication of re- ports, later officially denied, that friend ly receivership proceedings were to be brought against the company. Union Tank Gar broke points.
 Call money again held at per cent all day. Time money and commercial paper rates were unchanged.
 Foreign exchange rates turned reac- tionary on reports of deadlock in the German loan negotiations in London. Demand sterling dropped more than cent to $4391s and Fench francs ruled about 61h points lower at 5.07 cents. z Stock market averages

DUN,S REVIEW


 NEW YORK, July 25.-Dun's tomor- row will say: Plainer signs of improve ment, both in sentiment and in actual business, have lately appeared. On the whole, this weeks reports are noticeably better, and they are the more signifi- cant because demand in primary chan nels usually does not increase during the summer. Yet supplies in different instances have reached a state, after many months of restricted buying, where their replenishment has become necessary, and recent price reductions have been an added stimulus to pur- chasing. The gain In transactions is not general, but major lines, such as steel, dry goods, hides, leather and footwear, show an acceleration of ac- tivity, varying in degree, and not a few sellers are firmer in their views as to prices. %3

STOCK LETTERS

NEW YORK, July 25.-Rails again led in point of activity and strength in today's stock market, although other groups were brought forward from time to time at advancing prices. Sugar stocks looked stronger than at any time this summer. Among the rails, spe- cial strength was witnessed in Della ware and Lackawanna, which gained about S5 from yesterdays low price. Nickel Plate, New Haven, Chesapeake & Ohio, Erie and Lehigh Valley and Reading were all very strong.
 Specials, such as Schulte Cigar Stores, Davison Chemical and Goodyear pre- ferred, were again moved upward by the same interests that are usually ac- tive in them. Heavy buying came into Southern Railway in the last hour, send ing the price up to 66sS. United States Steel held firm all day, as the soc ex- tra Is expected at the next dividend meeting. Bethlehem Steel opened down two and a quarter points on account of poor statementa and omission of regu- lar dividend. After the first wave of selling, the stock recovered nearly a point. American Can, Baldwin and StudebalSer were inactive, fluctuating narrowly, Pan>Americans were lower by a point or more on profit-talSing. Trans Continental, Montgomery Ward and Ajax continued strong and active. Special strength was noted in Overland common and preferred. The buying in Southern Pacific and Baltimore and ohio was said to be of good character. Most of the oils acted strong. Cop pers held about the same as yesterday. yThe final tone was firm. Total sales, 1,04s,7O0 shares.--Fenner 6 Beane to Kahn & Virgin.

2 NEW ORLEANS, July 25.-The cot ton market today was typical weather affair, with active trading and wide fluctuations. The opening was lower despite good Liverpool cables owing to reports tf rains in Oklahoma and northern Texas. Failure of the wealth CT map and 10 o'clock weather report to bear out the rain reports and ad- vices of continued high temperatures in most of the western belt caused an ad- vance of nearly hundred points but all of this gain and more was later lost when many private adyices re- ported good raiIT in Oklahoma and in north and central Texas. October start ed lower and soon sold down to 27.O6c while December dropped to 26.S5c or 54 to 55 points down from the pre- vious close. There was slight rally in the final trading and the close showed net losses for the day on new crop months of 60 to 64 Dints.
 The July option went out strong in both markets with the final trade at 29.OOc here and the final in New York was 34.95c notwithstanding tenders of 34,50O bales during the morning in that market. .sz5zzs
