ON STOCK MARKET
Gain in U. S. Steel Orders
Comes as Surprise to
Saturday Traders.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK. July 9.-The stock
market today was a specially affair
with major speculative activity again
on the upside. Pools, encouraged by
the prospect of a continued ease OF
money rates. lifted nearly a score of
issues to new high ground. Owing TO
the absence of many traders from
Wall street. trading was relatively
light, the days sales aggregatlng only
706, 900 shares.
One of the most interesting business
developments of the day was the pub

F. w. Dodge Corporation. showing
that building and engineering con-
tracts in June in territory east of the
Rocky Mountains set a new high rec
ord in excess of $500, 900 600, with con
templated new work in excess of $780,
100000.
Steel Orders Gain.
Contrary to expectations. the un-
filled orders of the United States Steel
Corporation showed an increase Of
2,S05 tons in June. Wall Street gen
orally had looked for a decrease of
about $50 900 tons, because Of the re-
ported slackening in demand last
month. United States Steel common
closed fractionally lower at 1909.
Bueyancy again developed in
number of the high-priced industrials.
Commercial Solvents B scared nearly
II points to 3722, Mathieson Alkali
jumped points to a new peak price
of 11SN, and extreme gains of Az to
61a points were recorded by United
Drug, Air Reduction, Union Carbide,
international Silver and ManhattaN
Electrical Supply, most of which
reached new high ground.
Houston Oil, after touching new
peak price at 1741a, dropped down to
167, closing at 16S, for a net loss of
AZ points. Mack Trucks and United
States Cast Iron Pipe also were con-
spicuously heavy.
Nash Motors responded to the
declaration Of an extra dividend by
climbing 2ss points to 6S&. Chandler
Cleveland preferred and General Mo-
tors each moved up about a point.
Gabriel Snubbers and Reynolds Spring
touched new peak prices at ASA and
Q, respectively.
Jumps 10 Points More.
Nashville, Chattanooga & st. Louis,
which recorded a 20-point jump yes
terday, added 10 more points today,
selling at 200 for the first time. West
ern Pacific common and preferred
were heavily bought just before the
close. each advancing about 3 points.
Lehigh Valley and Kansas City South
ern were heavy on profit-taking.
After five successive weekly deficits
in reserve, the New York Clearing
House today reported excess reserve
of $25,004,990 Aggregate reserve to-
tailed $646.470, 900. The detailed state.
ment of actual condition this day
showed decreases in most of the prin-
cipal items. Loans, discounts and in.
vestments dropped Sal 1882, 900; re-
serve in the Federal Reserve Bank of
member banks, $6.700.000; net demand
deposits, $3.50. 1000, and time de-
posts, 81 045, 900. Cash in own vaults
increased $5.354000, and circulation
81 900.
Foreign exchange trading was quiet,
with the principal rates holding steady.
Demand sterling was quoted around
$4.S5 3-16 and French francs around
3.91a g cents.

to Uncle Jimmie Owens, former
owner of the herd. About half
the price of the herd remains
yet to be paid.
Under the plans now being
formed by Pettis for the buffalo
hunt, fifteen hunters will be per-
mitted to enter the valley for
the purpose of killing the fifteen
outlaw bulls. The hunters will
be permitted to keep the hide
and the horns of the animal
killed, while the meat of the
animal will be sold by the state
to swell the purchase fund OF
the buffalo.
The fifteen bulls to be killed,
Pettis explains are bulls which
the younger bulls of the herd
have driven from the herd prop
er. Some of the bulls are said
to be twenty years old. A few
of the fifteen have voluntarily
separated themselves from the

By the Associated Pres.

PARIS, November 7.-Acceptance
by France Of a SIS 900 .O0e loan from
the Swedish match monopoly is vari.
ously explained here. but in some
quarters there Is a tendency to pre-
matter is in the off1ng.
The Official explanation Is that the
loan IS purely a financial transaction
without strings or any connection
with the match company's recently
rejected proposal to operate the
French match monopoly.
Financial sources Of high standing
on the other hand, say that the
agreement presupposes an unrevealed
reason for the willingness Of the Swed-
ish match monopoly to lend the
French government so great q sum
under the market rate.
The loan, which will be used to liQui.
date the $70,000,0 still outstanding
Of the French $1OO,000,0 900 loan float
ed in the United States in 1920, Is for
which will be liquidated was at per
cent, thus giving France q consider
able saving In interest payments.
One of Premier Poincare's close ON
cial collaborators today authorized
the following explanation Of the trans
action:
1.-THE Swedish Match Co. recently
repeated to us the offer to take $75,-
1000 worth Of bonds to refund the
American loan. The offer was made in
the first place while we were negotiat.
ing with that company to take part in
the management of the French match
industry.
when the Chamber Of Deputies re.
terfad tha Cr0nOaal FOR fary,oip0 out
the match monopoly, the matter was
dropped. Recently, however. while
we were renewing contract with
the Swedish Match Co. for match.
sticks, this remark was made to US.
we understand that we cannot be-
come partners in the match business.
but do you still want the money!"
