There wan a distinctly steadier tone to

curtailed cxcentlnu for a moderate amount
ot dealing in United Slates Steel nt tho
lower level adopted by the Kxchango

demnnd and rallied, as did Klcctrlc Htor
uro Battery nnd Philadelphia Klcctrlc,
but transactions wcro few and chlelly In
odd lots.
All Interest ut tliu opening contrwl
around United States Steel, soma H708
shares changliu hands at 43. Subsiuiit
ly tho tiuotntlon Impioved a trlllc, but
activity died out. Over-the-counter trail
ing In tho Powder slocks showed a rally
from yostorday's declines.
tn the last hour demand developed for
Ki'.tom Telephone and the stock ad
vanced readily from 13U. where It had
sold early hi tho day, to 131,!. Tho closo
Has nulot and steady.
Tho most active section of tile local
market was In bonds. Pennsylvania new
