STOCK TRADING ,
WAS PERFUNCTORY
Confision of Sentiment Tontlod
Further to Lessen Pub
lic Interest
Slock alw today on 1,,e Now
York exchange, as complied by tho
Evening Sun, totaled 172,30q
chares.
Now York, July 31. Tho New York
Evening Sun's closing financial review
today says:
Confusion of sentiment and highly
rarled expression of opinion In weekly
reviews of tho securities market position
and tho general outlook tended further
to lessen public Interest In stock prices
In today's short session. The tone was
one of underlying strength, neither prcs
nro nor buying Initiative being In ert
donee To twnfthe slug glsh tide. Tho
statement of Comptroller of the Cur
rency Williams gnvo addlUonal emphasis
to the fundamentally sound financial
condition of tho country, and Iteration
of tbo ability of the Federal IUsoryo
banks to supply adequate credit facili
ties for essential purposes should give
confidence In the futuro, following a
period of necessary readjustment and
perhaps somo business unsetUemcnt.
Tho outstanding feature today was
tho nbsenco of all but the most per
functory concern In tho trading. Nu
merous ordinarily active Issues were
scarcely touched in the first hour.
There was n good show of strength
among the chemical stocks, particularly
those involved in merger rumors in cir
culation for several weeks past. Na
tional Analinc, General Chemical and
Barrett Co. Motors, oils and equip
ments did very little.
There was quiet strength In the rail
road list, gains in several cases ffblng
a point or more. Another sharp break
in wheat prices of 10 cents or more a
bushel was recorded.
The second hour saw somo yielding In
industrial values, while the rails rather
moro than held their own. In neither
list, however, was there the slightest
indication in initiation in any direc
tion. As far as any significance in the
trading in the half session went, tho
market might ns well have closed yes
terday for the week. There was Httln
of promise in money outlook In view of
tho announcement that the government
would withdraw $14,000,000 more from
tho banks on Tuesday next.
