It came near being n one stock market today. I.lkc Fome of tlie eenicillnnq In n musical comedy Mexican Petroleum tried te hoc the whole show. Willi tlint dork loan lean ing nt n premium of 1-32 per cent the powerful clique behind that ever vola tile hue made life miserable for the shorts by forcing the price tip ever 7 points, making a net gain of nearly 20 pelnti since last Thursday's break. A half-hearted sort of effort was made by ether peels te repeat the performance In the rest of oils while the trading In the general market settled down le nominal proportions without any def inite price tendency. Over-the-week -end developments were net altogether favorable. Nelle served en (he Railroad Laber Heard bj unions of their Intention te call n strike produced mere or less uneasiness, al though the market community continu ed nf the belief no serious trouble would occur and that the attitude of the union was mere or less of n bluff. A great many did net think that way, nnd prompted by the caution advices given by the prominent commission houses either made efforts te reduce commit ments or left the market seriously alone. Weakness of the foreign exchange mar ket added te the nervousness, which the 3 per cent opening rate for call money fal'ed te efTset. It would be difficult te find the real metlw for the continued demonstra tion In Mexican Petroleum. It wast retributed by some te the forthcoming rnnuul report, which Is expected te show earnings approximately equivalent te $2" a share en the stock. The closely held character of the Issue un doubtedly would supply a mere con vim ing explanation for the strong-arm methods. If It was devised for the purpose of facilitating selling In ether parts of the list the maneuver wa anything but successful, for instead of stimulating speculative enthusiasm else where it had n distinct restraining In fluence nnd served te Increase the cau cau tiettsnes already existing. While the general list backed and fdled within a narrow area the shorts in Mexican Pote and some of the ether oils spent a very uncomfertnble morn ing. Ne quarter was shown until the Mexican Pete crossed lii.l. whicli com pared with 132ni last Thursday. In the meantime Pan American "A" and "U" shares rose 2 te 2ni points, (Ion (Ien oral Asphalt. Standard Oil of Califor nia, California Petroleum and Pacific (III also made substantial advances.
