The days trade news was mixed in
character Freight car loadings in the
week ended August 27 set a new high
record for the year, but were under
those for the corresponding weeks in
1926 and 1925. August bank clearingS
in the metropolitan area failed to
show the usual seasonal decline due,
in part, to heavy securities trading
during the month. The weekly steel
trade reviews reported little change
in the output and demand for steel,
and the Iron Age composite pig iron
price dropped to within cents of the
lowest level since 1926 Directors of
the Gulf States Steel cempaSed passed
the quarterly dividend due at this
time.
Little attention was paid to the in
crease of more than $32,OOO,OOO in
stock exchange member loans last
month. Although banks called another
$5000000 in loans during the day, call
money was in, plentiful supply at the
renewal figure Of 31a per cent. There
was no change in other monetary
accommodations.
Increased public participation prob
ably was favored in the advance, al
though pools and powerful financial
interests continued to provide the bulk
of the buying power. The rapidity of
the advance in many issues induced
many conservative traders to take
profits on the theory that the techni-
cal position of the market had been
weakened, but offerings generally were
well absorbed and net declines held
to a point or two.
Houston Oil was the sensational in
dividual feature, soaring nearly 20
points to 1491a, and then reacting
about 3 points on realizing. U. S.
Cast Iron Pipe jumped IL points and
lost of it's gain, while about dozen
other issues, including A. M. Myers,
Colorado Fuel, Commercial Solvents,
Consolidated Gas, Endicott Johnson,
National Surety, Savage Arms and U.
S. Rubber showed net gains of points
or more.
In the railroad group, New York
Central was again heavily traded in,
but closed only 1s higher at 1603s,
after touching a new top at 162. West
ern Maryland common was again ac-
tive on the upside, but Atchison was
heavy.
U. S. Steel common closed points
higher at 1875, new peak, but Cen
eral Motors. cold stock showed net
loss of half a point at 252 after hav-
ing crossed 253 for the first time.
Commodity markets were mixed re-
flecting the usual evening up of spec
ulative accounts prior to the publica
ton of government crop reports, cot
ton tomorrow and grain on Friday.
