Daily Report OF
Stock Markets


NEW YORK. July IS. U.Pl-Ger~
man credit conditions guided the
stock market downward today and
then near the close another turn
in developments brought in short
coverings and a recovery Of about
half the early losses.
The latest event Of market i'm
portance was word from Paris,
quoting Pierre Quesnay, managing
director OF the Bank OF Interna-
tional Settlements, that Germany
had paid the French unconditional
annuities due today and these funds
had been turned over to the Ger
man railways by the bank
Earlier in the day the Bank OF
International Settlements said the
payment had not been made. This
brought a crash in German bonds
on the Paris bourse and the New
York stock exchange. Stocks and
bonds generally were hammered
down. The Quesnay statement i'm
mediately turned sentiment and
frightened the bears.
i he street was [ledlISneQ Dy WOTQ
from Berlin that the Reichbank had
raised the discount rate from 7 TO
10 per cent and the Lombard rate
rate on brokers loans-from 7 to
Is per cent, a move to attract
foreign capital.
In the period of stock market un-
certainty, U S. Steel was driven
down to 897s, off As from the pre-
vious close; Westinghouse electric,
61ss, off AS American can, 99la,
off SIS; Auburn Auto, l57h4. off
l2l2; Chrysler, 1875, off 3ss; and
American Telephone, 17lA, off 3as
The foregoing issues regained
10 3 points of these losses.
While stocks were in the process
of heavy liquidation, foreign ex-
change trading was demoralized
here and in London. The pound
sterling at London made a new low
since 1925 and in New York was
down far below the point where it
is profitable to ship gold 10 New
York. The mark quotations were
only nominal
