Coppers Continue in Demand New York, .lime 20. The stock market showed pronounced improve ment in todnj ' trading from conditions which hnd prevailed in the first lmlf of the week, there bclnc n distinct broadening of outside interest which was manifested in the increased activity in n' number of specialties, that had remained nnlct for a long time. Many stocks, including Haskell & Marker. May Department Store. New York Dock nnd Ajax Rubber moved np from " to more than 4 points. With out regnrd to the fluctuations in the remainder of the ll't, the buying in nearly nil of these issues came apparently from quarters which should be fully Informed in regard to their earning power nnd ascertained value. The movements in the general list were Irregular, room traders selling leading Mocks at intervals during the day and holding the mnrket to some extent in check, although there was n good demand on every recession nnd upturns later were forced without any special effort. The copper stocks were ngain in demnnd, Cerro He I'nsco moving up more than 4 points to 02, nnd traction stocks were in persistent demand from banking sources, Ilrookljn Ilapid Transit nnd Interborough Consoli dated preferred both moving up more than ,'t points. I'nited States Steel, after selling at 10,", advanced tn 107U, but lost part of its gain in the later trading. Marine common was one of the strong features in the first half of the day. when it advanced from 51 to 52. The extreme Mioemcnt of the dnj was in Chandler Motor, which rose 10 points to nbove 220. Hiiltiniore and Ohio was the one important exception, the suspension of dmdend payments announced late jesterday, being followed by a decline f more than 4 points in the stock today. The bond mnrket showed n better tone, although the Liberty bonds and the Victorj notes (ontinued in supply at the low leels which were estab lished early tn the week.

Off , rrlfc movements were mixed In today's Philadelphia stock market, and, although business was only mod6rately large, some Issues advanced widely, while declines were registered by several others. Pennsylvania Railroad was the active leader, the turnovef of that stock being the largest recorded In a single" session for a long time, but It held fairly steady nnd wn unchanged during the greater part of the day. On the other hand naltlmorc nnd Ohio yielded nenrly ,'l points, reflecting nonaction on the common dividend yesterday and the sale of $:5,000,000 In bonds. Lehigh alley also declined, but It wns Mow and its loss was small. Among other wide cha'rigs recorded, without, tinusunl activity in any of the stocks coming out, were a gain of 3 points for American Stores, 1-polnt advances for Keystone Telephone common and preferred nnd for Philadelphia Company fit stf a ..! ..! 11111! r .ox ... ... . .... i i"""' '" "imam uramp trust certincates, while I'nited States Steel was marked up more than 1 point. On the other hand General Asphalt was easy here, nlthough it advanced on the New York Curb, nnd fractional recession, were registered by Lehigh Navigation. Ray Consolidated and United Gas Im provement and' Philadelphia Electric were steady. Northern Central advanced "l" xrnnsic trust certificates gained a trifle. nn(1 tMncss was dull, with the feature a decline of 1'4 per cent for Philadelphia Electric first 5s, which about offset the advance of the previous session. Autocar Company to Expand A special meeting of the stockholders" of the Autocar Company has been called for July 22 to pnss upon the recommendation of the company's board of directors that the nuthorized capital be increased from ?2,000,000 to $10,000,000.

It is thought probable that the cere ' mony of signing the peaoe of Versailles j may well have a sentimental effect con 1 Rtructively, but that it will enrry erj far in actual translation into price ap I preciation is not retarded as likely. The I prevailing opinion favors the idea of 'a summer lull which may go well into August. The later month recalls, how ever, that in more than one instance in the past it hns been the month for the summer hulls to warm up in. Opening prices wrre irregular and business quickly settled down into a droning pace. There were not a few strong spots like American Linseed, (loodrich. I'nited States Rubber, the trcations nnd marines, Italdwin I.ocomo tivc and American Car and Foundry. Iloth the stool and copper groups did very well. The rails were neglected, the feature in that quarter being Ilaltimorc and Ohio, which lost nearly four points as a re sult of the suspension of the common dividend nnd the new bond notation. Virginia-Carolina Chemical directors declared an extra dividend of 2 per cent in cash. Last year the company paid the same extra in liberty bonds. The turnover once more 'failed to reach the million-share mark. In the last hour business was sluggish, and there was little further change in prices, which held pretty well around the top levels of the day, with few exceptions. War loan bonds were steady. Like the shares, traction bonds displayed consid erable strength under the influence of the federal court's decision in directing the return of the Eighth and Ninth ave nues lines to their stockholders. The flow of gold outward went on, $2,750,000 having been consigned to Spain. Exchange rates on .Madrid were unchnnged. There was a some what easier tone in sterling, francs and lire, but fluctuations were narrow. The weekly statement of the Hank of England disclosed proportion of reserve to liabilities of 17.70, against 10.72 last week. . Cotton twns fairly strong, while corn and oats were heavy. It was of interest to note that interest and dividend payments next month, which aggregate $334,040,070, accord ing to the Journal of Commerce's esti mate, are $20,000,000 less than a year ago, dividends being $101,47t.lRO, against $104,007,401 last July and in terest payments $212,570,CS4 as com pared with $:em,iu.i,wm. mini changed hands at 12V4 to 11.
