SHORTS COYERED
ON BANK STATEMENT
Bears Covered on Favorable De
velopment of Strike Situation.
STEEL STOCKS WERE FIRM
Early Selling of Stocks Was Encouraged
By Selling For Foreign Account
Market Was a Narrow Pro
fessional Affair
New York, September 29.—The stock
market was a narrow and professional af
fair today which ended with a show of an
imation and strength on account of an ac
tive demand from the short interest which
covered on the bank statement. This ele
ment saw encouragement in the fact that
the inroad upon the banking surplus was
restricted to less than $4,00,000, while a
much heavier depletion was expected. This
sentiment seemed not to be affected by
the fact that a decline in the reeerve re
quirements of over $3,000,000 was responsi
ble for this result which was brought about
by a contraction of $5,668,400 in the out
standing loans of the banks. The actual
decrease in oasb was slightly in excess of
last week’s, as had been expected. Be
sides the liquidation in the stock market
a large volume of time loans is said to be
maturing at this time and the proceeds of
these banks are inclined to hold f6r high
er rates, as explained below.
The prospects of favorable developments
in the coal strike situation of Saturday
Increased the disposition of the bears to
cover, and the recovery in prices from the
early low level ran between 1 and 2 points
for the principal active stocks, not a few
of which showed net gains of a point or
more. The early selling of stocks was en
couraged by selling for foreign account and
by rumors of financial difficulties in Berlin,
where the exigencies of a settlement
caused a Jump of 2 per cent in the rate for
short discount bills.
The steel stocks were rather firm
throughout. Intlmatipns from officials of
several of the great trunk lines of an in
tention to provide for the year’s need
forthwith at the present of $26 for steel
rails helped the grout), Large receipts of
raw Sugars, doing awdy with some of the
danger of a shortage helped Sugar. A
feature was the further marking down of
sterling exchange rates by the exchange
bankers, in spite of the nominal character
of the Saturday market.
Prices of stocks have shown some vio
lent fluctuations during the week and
mounted to a level considerably higher
than on last Saturday.
The bond market was weak in the earlier
part of the week, but recoveries in some
issues made the market Irregular later.
Dealing were not large at any time.
United States new 4s, registered, advanced
% and the old 4s and 5s declined V4 in the
bid price.

New York, September 29 —The Commer
cial-Advertiser's London financial cable
gram says:
The market here was lethargic and dull
all around today. There was practically
no tension because of the monetary and
political apprehensions which prevailed.
Tho American department was featureless.
Prices were lower, following the New York
lead, though the quotations generally were
above parity. Berlin apparently is still In
clined to sell.
Money was not so scarce today as was
expected owing to the repayment made
yesterday by the bank. Discount was a
shade easier. Gold to the amount of £30.000
has been exported to Roumania. Silver was
steady, but quieter.
