The reflection of tlie favorable war news tccclvcd up to Inst night was found nt the opening of business on the stock exchange this morning In advances of fractions to 1U points In the ustiallv active leader"?, and In some of the specialties ccn larger impi momenta were established In the flist few minutes of trading. Prices mocd uncertainly after the advance for a brief spell, nnd busi ness quieted down. Later, however, cabled ndlccs that the Trench and Americans had staitcd an offensle on u thirtv-lhe-mlle front, nnd still later news of success In the movement evoked enthusiasm, and the stock market broke uvvaj from icstialnts the olume of business Increasing rapidly. United States Steel, by the end of the Hist hour, hid ilsen to 10GS8, a gain of i points from jesterdaj's final, and corresponding adances were made In Mexican Petroleum to pat. Gains of 1 point to 1 points were established In Bethlehem Steel '15," Mldvnle Steel nnd American Smelting. The rise was geneial, ulmost everv thing on the list making some gain In the cirmcumstances little or no attention was paid to any of the ordinal developments, leg.irdiug the miuketsf, as for instance the heavj Gov eminent collections and the news specifically bearing on piop ertes. As the market has been s-o profi s.slonal and the tiaders mostly on the short side the upward movement leceived considerable impetus from the covering of shoit contracts. Pools, in a number of closelv held stocks, at, for instance, American Sumatra, took advantage of the oppoitunit to lush up thelt issues.

' Conditions here were largely a reflection of thoso on tho big board, ex ceptlng that generally greater strength was evidenced by changes on the New York exchange, but evcrv where in brokers' board rooms and through out the financial district attention was largely devoted to watching bulletins 1 ana.tlcker reports from the battlefields. There was so much enthusiasm over the success of tho Initial tnovement against the Huns along the Marne that business was neglected and the turn over of stocks was exceptionally small before midday. Lake Superior Corj poratlon and United States Steel common were about the only Issues In which there was much activity. Tho former recorded a fractional gain after being off slightly, and Steel turned upward more than 2 points. "' Electric Storage Uattery, General Asphalt common 'and Insurance Com pany of North .America came out unchanged, Philadelphia Electric scored a small advance and Pennsylvania Railroad gained 11 vtrlfle.also. neadlng, selling ex dividend, was nenrly 2polnts above yesterday's clos ing quotation. , There was large trading In the Government's Liberty Loan 4 per cent bonds, with their price off a little, while tho becond 4s vv6re down to 93.96, and the 3s and first 4s advanced. The third Installment of 35 per cent on the third Liberty Loan was paid today. Up to July 13 there had been paid Into the Treasury on account of the loan $3,244,544,235, leaving an unpaid balance of $931,972,615. It is thought that a large part of this amount was remitted today, leaving a relatively small amount to be paid August 15, when the final Install ment of 40 per cent Is pavable. There matured today an Issue of $517,826,500" Treasury certificates, which were used by some banks and Individuals In making payment on the bonds.

The demand was not particularly active and confined to the May position, which sold at 9c on the call, or 5 points above lsvst night's close. The war trade board announced today that the United States shipping board has allotted a vessel to carry coffee from Brazil to New Orleans, which vessel will sail from Brazil, August 15 to 20; rate SI 70 per bag. Trading during the morning was In active, but prices held the early ad vance. Interest van limited lo the May position, with trade Interests the nrlnclnal buyers. Cost and freight prices continue out of line with the Ideas of local buyers In connection with values, and a very small business Is anticipated until there is a readjustment one way or another. Brazil recently has been asking for Information In regard to the price Im porters might pay for coffee, and at the present time the ideaj of buyers and sellers appear to be about a cent a pound apart. -Mitchell, Johnson, Sellar, Wilson, Jay, Peers, Free. offered December.
