FINANCIAL NEWS
SPECULATORS RESUMED OPERATIONS
AND SPECIALTIES ROSE SHARPLY
Bethlehem Steel Led Upward Swing With Gain of 60
Points Banks Did Not Call Any
j; More Loans Today
r.
' NEW YORK, Oct. 7.
Judging from the) action of the stock market today, the speculators did
not profit by the lesson taught them yesterday, when many weak accounts
were cleaned out because larger margins were not forthcoming. They disre
garded entirely tho steps takon by the exchange to curb wild trading in the
War specialties, and this group was again boosted upward, many of the losses
mistalned In the heavy liquidation of the day before being recovered, while some
issues even touched now high marks. This was notably true of Bethlehem
Bteel, which bounded up 60 points to 460. Gains of three and four points
were quite numerous, whllo some advances were even larger. To illustrate
how actlvo the market was, the mllllon-Bhare. stage was passed bofore 2
clock, making tho tenth consecutive mllllon-sharo day. Tho market remained
strong to tho close.
One of the most striking things In the market was the strength and acthlty
shown in the railroad shares, these issues showing advances around two points
early In the session. More attention was given to them than has been the case
for many days past, although traders have been gradually switching from the
industrials to them. The renewed Inquiry was helped very materially by the
advice whioh many houses are giving their customers to realize on tho Industrials
which they have been holding, at least to some extent, and reinvest their win
ning In the rails. While the coalers, Chesapeake and Ohio, Lehigh Valley, Nor
folk and Western, and Heading, wore the leaders on the upswing, there was nlso
raueh strength shown in tho big transcontinental roads. Union Pacific. Northern
rwUfl, St Paul, asd the like.
The process of stabilising tho market, a new phrase which the banks
hwei injected Into financial parlance, seems to bo pretty well completed- Tho
banta say that they took no concerted action. It simply happened that all
the large ones concurrently thought It was time to call a halt. Their loan
envelopes are fat now. Loons are, in fact, sweetened better than ever before
en Stock Exchange collateral.
There -waa no further caning of loans today. It may accordingly bo
Bswaed that all of the brokerage houses are in condition to proceed with
their business without further Interruption from the money market. Tho
tooltmarket br the same token Is fundamentally sound. Speculators and

WHEAT REACTED
AFTER EARLY RISE
Many Perplexing Problems
Confront Operators Heavy
Sales of Grain Reported
CHICAGO, Oct. ,-Despite optimistic
predictions of a reoord-breaklnjr crop by
Government officials and Increased re
ceipts, wheat prices moved up nt tho
opening today, and lt the early hours
gains of H4 to 1 oents took place. In
the last four days prices climbed 13 cents
or more.
Following' the rise there was a pause,
and the range of prices was limited.
Operators, however, declined to commit
themselves anil said that It would be folly
to make sny prediction with tho present
perplexing problems confronting them.
Prices reacted In the afternoon and all
of the early gains were cancelled. The
late dealings found the general level
fractionally under last night. The Gov
ernment estimate, of. a winter wheat crop
of 215,000,000 bushels was responsible for
tho reaction.
Trading In corn was steady, with prices
holding fairly firm, as the undertone ap
peared stronger than the wheat market's.
Oats sold In scattered quantities, with
business dull, although there was not
much change In prices nor did It appear
that there would be.
Kxport sales reported nggTegated 800,000
bushels of wheat, 100,000 bushels of It
being durum. A recent sale of winters
was canceled, and 250,000 bushels of Manl
toban substituted. Chicago cash handlers
sold 85,000 bushels of wheat, 160,000 bush
eli of corn nnd 170,000 bushels of oats.
Liverpool showed a weakness In wheat
on receipt of American cables. Spot and
cargoes were Irregular.

With ths exception o Baldwin Ieotno
tlvs shares tho lsvel of prices in tho
Philadelphia market of ths recently actlvo
Industrials continues to display rnarkoa
firmness, rsnglns closs to tho year s best
figures, despite heavy profit talcing- and
the broker's Insistence upon unusually
heavy margins. Knowledge that some
3MO,0OO,0O0 must bs spent in this country
on war materials and supplies, to say
nothing of the gradual Increase In tho
volume of business from horns sources,
is tho supporting factor.
With the growing public conviction, too,
that tho war is going to be prolonged,
some are even forecasting for five years,
and the consequent expectation that morb
nnd even larger European demands for
supplies ,aro likely to bo forthcoming, It
Is difficult to prove to tha holders of the
Industrial Issues likely to bo benefited
thereby that they should sell out. Hence,
even raids such as occurred jesterday
fall to frighten out many, except those
trading on very slender margins.
A comparison of this morning's quota
tions for seven of tho leading local Indus
trial shares with thoso of a week ago,
nnd the year's high and low levels, will
bear out this fact, Baldwin being the only
set-back of note. The table follows:
