A representative Influence was put Into the stock market durinc to
day's tradliiK by the news from Washington that the Treasury represent
ative had requested authority for the Issue of a new loan In the autumn
of $8,000,000,000. These figures staKRercd some of thoe who had taken
an active position on the bull side of the market, and from the time the
announcement was made, stocks were pressed for sale, with the majority
of the list sustaining declines ranging from 1 to 2 points from the high
figures of the morning.
Sellers of stocks on this recession failed to take Into consideration
the fact that the experience of three loans already placed had demon
strated the ability of the financial Institutions of the country to provide for
t.overnment requirements no matter how large without any active dis
turbance of banking accommodation, but the market situation had become
sensitive to anything In the way of disturbing Incidents, and the profes
sional element on the exchange was quick to use the news as a new
bearish Incentive?,
The general range of market moements was again Indicated by the
course of United States Steel. That stock advanced In the early trading
fiom 103H to 110H, but when the selling movement started after noon
,it declined to below 10D
Many of the steel Industrials made good gains for a time during the
morning, but these gains were turned Into losses In the last half of the
day.
Mexican Tetroleum was a strong feature, advancing 2 to 102'4,
reacting with the remainder of the list before the close. Distillers Secur
ities was especially affected by the report of the Senate Agricultural
Committee lecommendlng the adoption of a prohibition amendment In
connection with current legislation
Trading In Liberty Bonds today was on such a large scale as to
overshadow other transactions In the bond market. The second 4s
ranged from 94 20 to 04.50, the 4s sold at 9fi 30 to 86 SO, and the 3U-5
ranged from 99.56 to 99 64.

-Oils in Urgent Demand
New York, June 27.
The market on Curb showed a strong tone during the greater part
of the day and, although recessions occurred when the leading stock
reacted on the stock exchange, nearly all the important Issues were estab
lished at higher prices, holding a part of the gains at the end of th day.
The most Important feature of the outside market was the urgent
demand for Russian bonds, the EUs moving up from 37 to 41' and the
fiVjS at the same time rose from 41 to 42.
This movement was accompanied by a substantial Improvement in
the market for Russian ruble currency, and there was a general disposi
tion in lianking circles to regard the situation In Russia as having been
materially brightened by the suggested plans for Allied intervention In
that country. ""
There was heavy trading again in General Asphalt, which advanced
to 3214, but later reacted about 2 points.
Many of the oil stocks were In urgent demand, with Midwest Re
fining advancing to 120 and Tierce Oil rose to 17. Houston Oil advanced
from 77 to 78J4, but reacted sharply In the afternoon.
War-order stocks weie quiet, Aetna Explosives selling at 13 to
1334, Submarine at 10 to 1C and Curtlss at 40 to 39V Burns Brothers
sold at 274 to 27.
Mining stocks were Irregular Magma advanced fiom 33 to 35 and

GENERAL ASPHALT COMMON
AND PREFERRED SCORE BIG
GAINS, BUT LATER DECLINE
Realizing Sales Brings Reaction After Former Reaches
New High Record for This Year Lake
Superior Active and Strong
Virtually all interest In trading on the Philadelphia Stock Exchange to
day was centered In General Asphalt and Lako Superior Corporation, the
common and preferred shares of tho former company continuing active and
strong, whllo Superior was higher and demonstrated more momentum than It'
haa for a long time.
"General Asphalt common continued In good demand, nnd at ono time sold
as high as 3214, a new high record for this year, compared with a close price
yesterday of 3114, but profit-taking caused recessions from tlmo to time, and
at tho close, with sales totallng more than 4000 shares, It had dropped
back for a loss of 114. The preferred was not as active, but it made an
advance of 1 point to 64, later dropping back to 63 and closing at63.
Lake Superior Corporation was by far the most active stock dealt in dur
ing the session, sales of that issue aggregating more than 7600 shares.
Around mldafternoon It advanced to 18, up , but later dropped to 17T4.
at which level tho majority of business had been transacted earlier in the
day, and at the close another sale came out at 18.
The tone of the market-as strong and, while the majorltyfof business in
other issues, outside of Pennsylvania Railroad and Steel common, was in small
lots, nearly all changes In prices were to higher levels. And the reces
sions for leaders was in part.attrlbutcd to the lower range on the big board
following announcement from Washington that tho Treasury Department
wanted the Liberty Loan to bo floated in the autumn to bo for $8-,000,000,000,
Electric btorage Battery advanced 114, Pennsylvania Salt was marked tin
14 point, and William Cramp certificates reflected tho good report at tho
annual meeting and the declaration of a 3 per cent dividend by advancing
2 points.
Rapid Transit certificates were fractionally higher, but Union Traction
was slightly lower.
