Steel Noteworthy Feature of Early Trading; Gains Made by Other Industrials, Equipments and Supply Issues; Trades Take Profit By Associated Press -New York. April 25.—(Wa1l Street) —U. S. Steel was the noteworthy fea ture of to-day's early trading, the first transaction in that stock con sisting of 15,000 shares at 112',! ta 112%, a gain of 1% points, in recogni tion of the extra 3 per cent, dividend declared yesterday. Advances of a point were registered by other indus trials, equipments and supply issues, with a point for Baltimore and Ohio and half a point for Union Pacific. Much of the initial advance was soon lost, Steel reacting almost a point on profit taking. Ohio Gas, oils and shippings also fell back. The setback Utter the opening proved of brief duration, leaders speedily throwing off professional pressure. Steel rebounded from its minimum of 111% to 11314 and Utah Copper led the metals, advancing 2% points on announcement of heavy j government purchases. Ohio Gas more than retrieved its loss of 2%. Bethlehem Steel new stock substi tuted a one point decline with a gain of almost 2 points and a similar re covery was registered by Texas Com pany. The strength of niaines caus ed hasty covering of shorts in that group. Rails were in better demand, but tractions moved uncertainly. Bonds were irregular.
