and a Half Points Public Again
in Market '
NEW YORK, Oct. 8.
Efforts of brokers to Tmv thetr customers switch from tlio war specialties
to the moro standard Issues, such as tho railroad shares, appear to have
been successful at last. Judging from the action of tho rails In the stock

tho carriers, and In tho afternoon session they had becomo tho outstanding
features, advances ranging from ono to 6H points. On tho other hand, war
stocks sagged off a trlflo from tho high point, and In tho case of Bethlehem
Steel, which had bounded up nlno points to a now high mark of 409, there
WM a sharp reaction that carried it 14 points from tho closo of yesterday.

Street that thero was a good prospect that tho 10 per cent, dividend could
sow bo considered cntlroly secure, due to tho Improvement in tho general
business conditions. The copper shares wcro also strong, but not to such
Bin extent as tho rails. Tho closing found tho railroads strong, whllo the
Industrials went off, tho market being Irregular.
Thero was nothing In the market to indicate that steps had been taken by
(the Exchange to curb tho wild trading In tho war specialties, and thero was evl
Bence that tho public had returned In largo numbers. Although larger margins
fcro now being exacted on tho specialties, they seemed to bo forthcoming at every
0&1L
There was some weakness in tho foreign exchange market in tho early hours,
fates being down about a. half cent. This was thought to bo duo to tho reports
Ithat there had been a hitch in tho signing of tho contract for tho TGOO,000,000

HEAVY BUYING OF ODD LOTS
REFLECTS PUBLIC INTEREST
New Rules Regarding Small Purchases Approved by
Local Traders Stocks Displayed Firm Tone
Today Brokers' Offices Crowded
Brokers offices continued crowded
nstaln today, or at least until It was time
for the Reneral exodus to the ball
Krounds. Brokers reported a constantly
Increasing odd-lot demand for hlRh
ttrndo stocks and middle-grade bonds, In
dicating a heavy Increase in public de
mnnd for securities. Tho purchasers of
small lots of stock In the large majority
of cases pay for them outright, and take
them out of the market, and brokers say
that this development has reached a pro
portion that counts In stabilizing the
market. Tho new rulo mado recently In
New York Is said to have been due to this
Increaso In public buying. The arrange,
ment makes the amount of the brokers'
commissions on a stock of $60 a share
par valuo tho same as thoso on Blocks of
$103 par, nnd has been well received In
this city by houses which execute orders
on tho New York Exchange.
The commission has been raised from
S cents to 1234 cents on stocks quoted
In Wall street on tho 100 per cent, basis,
thus enabling local brokers to receive
tho samo commission as If tho trans
action had been executed In this city.
To Illustrate the growth of tho odd-lot
business of late, ono large commission
house reported this weok having pur
chased $200,000 of small blocks of stock
for cash, all of rhlcn had been with
drawn from tho market.
Tho local list today ruled strong, with
good demand for Cambria Steel, , United
States Steel nnd Pennsylvania Steel pre
ferred at slight advances. Pennsylvania
Steel common again sold at 90.
Steel common again sold at 90. In tho
Ilnnl dealings, honevcr, Cambria turned
weak.
Since tho Increase In the American Oas
dividend tho stock had not sold until
today, when an odd lot camo out at 114,
compared with a last previous sale of
103. As the day advanced tho anlhrnclto
Issues became prominent, aided by tho
report of September anthracite ship
ments. Lehigh Valley ana Heading each
moved up over a point. Although tho
tonnage fell below last year, thero wns
a substantial gain over tho preceding
month. Itopld Transit crossed 13 In tho
lato trading, and Heading 4s also moved
up.
Tho strongest Issue on tho list during
tho morning was J. O. Brill, which
opened up nearly 3 points nnd then re
acted. No particular new developments
wcro forthcoming, but tho Street was full
nf tnllr nt rlenla nnd thn nrnbnbllltv of
governmental Interference. Tho hopo was
expressed that tno supreme court wouiu
act quickly upon tho United States Steel
caso In order to settle tho matter onco
and for all. In regard to the Mldvnlo
deal It Is said that of tho authorized
capital of $100,000,000, between $70,000,000
nnd $75,009,000 will Issue immediately. It
has been prlvntely oversubscribed at n
par value of $50 per share nnd by nearly
100 per cent. It will represent cash and
cost values and there will bo only ono
security, no debts and no promotion re
wards. The organizers will recclvo their
profits from tho privilege of subscription
at par.
It was asserted In well-informed quar
ters today that thero Is no proposed con
nection between Mldvnlo and Bethle
hem, Cambria, Pennsylvania Steel, Jones
& Laughlln or Crucible Steel, nnd no
consolidation Is contemplated with tho
Baldwin Locomotive or any other steel
works.
