NEW YORK, September 24.-Large-

ernment Is, representing the latest of
the dollar loans. was feature In the
bond market today. These bonds had
left off Wednesday at 92H. They were
actively bought today up to "a. This
buying was associated with optimistic
expectations Of the negotiations at
Washington. French IS were un-
changed at 105 and so were French
municipal bonds around SO and Nord
Railway 61as at 85h.
Kelly IS Advance.
Belgian IS were fractionally higher
while the 71as were down a bit. There
were large dealings in the Argentine
6s. with the old bonds most of the
time around 95& and the newly is
sued series quoted at the offered price
of 96la. German Land Bank Is con-
tinued moderately active around %.
A remarkable advance occurred in
Kelly Springfield S.. They had closed
the day before at 1854 and. suddenly
beginning to shoot up, they reached
l09. The Street was inclined to ex-
plain this advance as a run-in of a
short interest.
New Issue Oversubscribed.
United States Rubber 5s slipped off
to 89A after having sold earlier in
the week above 80. Empire Fuel 7Hs
were also a shade lower. Convertible

BY STUART p. WEST.

special Dispatch TO The star.
NEW YORK, September 24.-Prices
fell away sharply in the stock mar
ket today following further unsuc-
cessfhl efforts to revive speculative
INTEREST on the buying side by putting
up q few. selected stocks. The decline
occurred without there being any
change in outside conditions. 1t was
simply the result of a top-heavy
structure within the market itself.
Motors Come Down.
Before the rank and file in the
Street were aware of the change
such leaders as Studebaker, General
Motors. Hupp and Pierce-Arrow We're
selling to points off from top fig
ures. Packard was offered down
heavily on disappointment over the
dividend action.
The stock previously paid 80 cents
regular and so cents extra. Placing II
on regular 50-cent basis did not &C
cord with the expectations aroused
by the recent advance. Hudson Motor
was particularly sensitive, because 1r
the recent trading it had gone VI
more than most Of the others. Willys
Overland and Jordan gave way easily
and so did the shares Of motor truck
companies.
The sudden collapse in the shares OF
Briggs Manufacturing was a disagree
able surprise to many who had bought
at the time the stock was brought out
on the Stock Exchange.
Tobacco Shares Strong.
Tobacco shares were strong early.
but yielded later when the pressure
against the rest of the list increased.
American Tobacco issues, Reynolds B.
Lorillard and the two classes Of Lig-
gett & Myers stock all made new
highs. The advance in Lorillard across
SO occurred despite the fact that this
company has little participation in the
cigarette business, which has been the
big factor in expanding earnings of
the tobacco companies during the last
two years.
Oil Shares Quiet.
Following Wednesdays sudden re-
newal Of activity in the oil shares
these stocks did little today. An in.
teresting contribution to the trade
data was the report of California Oil
received at Atlantic and Gulf ports
in the week ended September 10. The
daily average receipts In that week
amounted to $4,000 barrels, as against
1926 daily in the preceding week
This sharp reduction In the supplies
OF California Oil probably had some
thing to do with the rise In the oil
shares Wednesday.
Childs' Stock at New Top.
A new high for Childs Co.'S stock
was an incident among the specialities
The recent upturn has coincided with
Virtually favorable reports preceding
the company's business. Sales in Au-
gust were the largest in Childs' his
tory. Moreover net income has in
creased correspondingly.
United States Smelling has been un-
usually active and strong recently in
anticipation Of favorable changes in
the dividend policy. The stock now
pays SO annually. and it was rumored
that the rate would be raised to 81
at the next meeting. United States
Smelling Is said to be setting aside
consistently a good sized amount for
depreciation.

The closing was weak. Weakness
of the grain market accentuated the
selling of stocks in the late dealings,
with many high-priced issues falling
5 to II points.
Some Of the Van Sweringen rails,
however, were bought in anticipation
of an early decision on the Nickel
Plate merger.
Chesapeake and Ohio and Nickel
Plate both jumped more than
points, the former reaching a new
high for the year at 110A. Fleisch.
