New York. Rent. 1. The New Yprk livening Hun's closing financial review today says : Mixed movements In the industrials, with priees' leaning to softness, and fur ther quiet strength in railroad shores, featured trading In todav's Rcsslon of the stock market. Business wns in eraJnnllv exnandlne? volume although It seemed that this was brought about more by centering of interest on n cer tain few Issues thnn by any rcnl broad ening of scope, Low-priced railroad stocks were again in good demand at substantial accessions in value. Sev eral Issues in tht list were not much changed, but all displayed a distinctly firm undertone. The steel industrial group held Wfady, whllo United States Steel appeared to have abdicated its position of leadership tor the time being. fonsiuernDie pressure wns cxcricu against the motor descriptions follow ing announcement of tho failure of an other small automobile company, the second to noss into the hands of a re ceiver within the past ten days or fort night, and a good deal of talk was heard about "the survival of the fittest" in connection with the outlook for the industry as n whole. The reference probably sulfa tho case well enough, although it is usually easier to exag gerate a condition of affairs in a mood ittiirzeRtcd bv the term than otherwise, The weakness in the lending motor stocks was not pronounced, News developments of tho day were not greatly heeded. Existing strikes nnd threatened walkouts have become more or less of art old story to the street. Irritation arising therefrom would seem to be largely personal for tho moment, a it is regarded as certain that they will be settled sometime. They always have, and one may as well be philosop hical over a matter that can't be helped. Trading currents were in a measure diverted back to the industrial shores in the middle of the afternoon when cr.'l money dropped to 7 per cent from tht 8 per cent renewal rate. This Is the PrM time in about a week that demand loans have been qdoted below 8 per cent. It was understood thnt large bank ing interests placed substantial sums ir the money market this morning. Some relaxation from the higher ruling rntcs was to be expected with completion of arrangements for financial obligations of the first of the month. It was merely a momentary condition of things and had little bearing on the credit situation as a whole. One of the strong spotH wns American Woolen stock, which wns influenced by an nouncement that that company's mills at Lawrence would reopen on the 13th of this month. There have been vary ing opinions nbout this experiment in supposed battling ngainst economics but no doubt satisfaction that the mipposcd need for It has passed will bo genuine. While nwaiting ibsunnce of the gov ernment cotton condition report, tho market for that staple was. under con siderable pressure, but improvement was noted later on when it wns disclosed that the condition was not ns good as anticipated. The estimate as of August 25 was 07.5 per cent, whereas 09 per cent was quite confidently looked for. The indicated crop wns approxi mately in line with expectations, that is to say, 12.783,000 bales. Existing weather conditions nre regarded on the whole as favorable and it would not be Mirprlsing if another million bales were ndded In the actual output. The forwarding swing became quite aggressive toward the closing, the steels, oil and others making substantial net gains, bringing the industrial list as u whole In line with the railroad ad vance. This demonstration was regard ed mainly as the result of covering by shorts. There was no little animation in the bond department, where prices continued firm to strong.
