Position Quickly Stabilized and Prices Move Forward Sev eral Points New A'oilt. Aug. G. The New A'ork I'veniiig Sun's financial review this afternoon is as follows: There was buving of the best chnr neter 111 todnj 's stock market, once the essiiin got under waj. Prices nt the opening were uncertain to some extent, but the position wns ipiicklv stabilized nnd then n good forward movement started which carried values 2 to 5 points nbove the Tuesdaj closing level. Three dearly defined elements entered into the blond rise. Those who have greater consideration for intrinsic value than for any passing disturbances of the hour, which frequently enough ob scures the true medium for guidance, see a much improved oppoituuity for baignins of the best sort nnd they were not nfinnl to buj today. It may bestntcd Hint a laige number in this class take the stocks out of the street for the time being nt any rate. The supplj of stocks is not huge in consequent c nnd the demnnd cannot readily he supplied, whether sui h de mnnd originates with tlio shott or long prospei tive purchasers. When the shorts take to covciing, therefore, they must bid pretty high to meet their borrowing needs. The be hnvior of the market yesetrdny be hooved many shorts to tnke to covering today. Trading wns in lighter volume than nt nny previous time since last Friday and everything was conducted in the most oidcily manner. Sentiment was distinctly moie cheeiful. The railroad case seemed less black than it did before when it (ame nbruptly almost out of n dear sky nnd when the street was lecessing ut the end el the week, two full days instead of one and a half days. Vn one sunnoscs that, ussuming the demands of the brotherhoods nrc to be met in substance, the ladical features of the legislation proposed will be car ried through. In other words, mere must be compensation for the investor, nnd it is not conceivable that the gov ernment could be loerced into taking over the roads without at least making as good 11 return to the iuvestor in rail load securities as war loan bonds would give. This is u vinicty of consolation which would requiic u super Murk Tapley to extract cheer from, but it is a decided improvement over the tendency to pan icky despair which made Monday n blue Monday indeed. The general eco nomic situation of the country has :i soundness, in fact, which serves in good stead in these datk moments of threat ened strikes, food cost problems nnd to on. That the AVashington officials np pear to be ulive to the necessity for (lo ins something to alleviate the distress due to the high cost of living, and that President AVilson will nddress Congress on Friday on the subject, was not with out its effect in bringing about a better feeling. The specialties, in a sense, enme into their own again nnd some sensntlonnl gains were registered, as in United States Ilubber. which added over 14 points to the Tuesday price. The up ward swing wns progressive, with the steel group in the lead. Hnldvvin Loco motive, I'nited States Food Products, I'nited Hetail Stores, Tobacco Products. American Linseed nnd Xevv York Dock were extremely strong spots. The cop pers, oils, equipments nnd shippings were well bought nnd consistently. The mils did well, too, although less ag gressive than the industrials. AVnr bonds were linn. The easing of call money rates was likewise a factor in encouraging buying of stocks. Renew ing nt 0 nnd (1 per cent, the rate dropped nt mid-day to 4 per cent for both mixed and Indus trial collateral. AVeakness in sterling francs and lire featured the foreign exchange market. Francs were down 15 centimes to a new low point ut 7,04 and lire yielded 18 points to 7.88 lire to the dollar. Sterling was quoted nt 4S.liyj, 3 cents down. Tesctos suf fered n sharp setback also. Cotton shared the improvement in other markets and wns irregularly high er. Cqrn nnd oats were very strong. INDEMNITY BODY FORMED Ebert Signs Decree for Enforcement of Peace Treaty Berlin. Aug. 0.
