Conspicuous strength was shown by Mexical oils, dividend paying rails and independent steel shares, Active bidding for some of the specialties forced up several to new peak prices for the year, in- cluding Famous Players, Internation- al Paper and Pittsburgh Coal. Union Facific broke through for a new high and Chicago and Northwestern, Great Northern preferred and North- ern Pacific extended their early, gains. Advances of 2 points or more took place in Crucible and Lacka- wanna steels, Mexican- Petroleum, American Ice, ‘American Can and American Linseed preferred. Amer- ican Radiator, gulf steel and. Louis- ville and Nashville followed a con- trary course, dropping 1 to 4 points. Call money opened at 31-2 per cent. Opening prices on the New York stock exchange today were mainly upward but the hesitant mood of most traders because of the uncer- tainty of the strike situation result- ed in relatively light dealings. Rails recovered somewhat from their heav- iness of yesterday, gains of 3-4 to 1 3-8 points being registered by New York Central, Great “Northern pre- ferred and Chicago and ;Northwest- ern, with most of the others advanc- ing fractionally. - The b@om in the building indugfry. found expression | in United States realty, which jump- ed 2 1-2 points to a new high for the, _ year. Pierce Arrow preferred was up 1. 1-4 on reports of increased earn- ingseand gains of a point or more were made by Cucible, British Em- pire Steel second preferred, peoples gas and Scars-Roebuck. The princi; pal ractionary shares were General Electric and American International, which were down 1 and 3-4 points, respectively. Orders from outside sources coun- terbalanced speculative realizing in several of the leaders like Mexican Petroleum and Studebaker with the list in ,general continuing to give an impressive show of stréngth up to the early afternoon. The Pierce- Arrow issues, the preferred rising 5% points and Standard Oil fornia, Virginia-Carolina chemical preferred, North American, Texas Gulf, Sulphur, Western Union and Elkhorn fuel were bid up in a spirit- ed fashion, Republic Motor and the Burns Brothers share fell away sharply. / Short covering, believed to have ben predicated on reports that large speculative interests were again buv- ing shares, was instrumental in gausing a moderate advance in prices in today’s stock market. Sales approximated 600,000 shares. —- Rumors of an-early resumption of dividend payments by Crucible Steel forced that stock up four points and various other favorites continued to reflect bullish impulses. ‘Towards the close profit taking in oils and “some of the other lenders caused some recessions from the high lev- els, The closing was easy. —.

Santa Fe trains stalled for sev- eral days at desert towns in Cali- fornia, Arizona and New Mexico, were moved westward. Although movement of these trains brought, relief to marodned passengers, Las Vegas, Nevada remained isolated due“to the tie up. An ultimatum to Big Four Bro- therhood chiefs from A, G.

G.. Lee, president of the Brotherhood of Trainmen, that vices presidents of the union had been instructed to enforce working agree- ments with the railroad.

Washington, Aug, 15.—The bright- est ray of light in the darkened in- dustrial situation appeared today from the anthracite coal fields of Pennsylvania where persons in close |touch with the’ situation expressed the belief, chances for quick and satisfactory settlement of the long drawn out strike of! union miners ‘were good. Definite results from the meeting in Philadelphia tomorrow of Pennsylvania operators with Presi- jdent John L. Lewis of the United Mine Workers ‘were predicted and Senator Pepper of that state who is acting for President Harding was in- strumental in bringing about the conference for authority for the statement that “there seems no doubt in adjustment of all differences for the time being at Jeast will be ac- complished.” oa It was believed possible that, if at least a temporary settlement should result from the Philadelphia confer- ence, an agreement might be reached for the creation ofa presidential or congressional commission to adjust future wage differences. “The mine workers will go into the meeting with the operators pre- pared to execute /a contract,” said President John Lewis on adjourn- ment of the miners mecting. f The Philadelphia conference of miners with anthracite operators set for tomorrow will probably be delay- ed until Thursday, it being expected that Mr. Lewis and other miners’ of- \ficials will’ be required to remain coal settlement. Under the agreement supplemental will be executed. try are to be asked, under the terms of the agreement to meet here next October ‘to decdide on the selection \ of the advisory commission of in- Nquiry.

HARD COAL PARLEY Philadelphia, Aug. 15.—A fornial call for the hard coal wage parley here tomororw; which it is predict- ed, will result in an early settle- ment of the suspension that has kept the mines idle since April 1, was to be issued today from Hazel- ton, Pennsylvania, by James Gorman, secretary of the joint con- ference. The acceptance yesterday by John L, Lewis, president of the United Mine Workers, of the invitation for the Philadelphia conference extend- ed by Samuel D. Warriner, chair- man of «the anthracite operators’ The favorable situation was brought by an emphatic and persua- sive move by President Harding as an intermediary. In a letter dated last Saturday and addressed to Unit- ed States Senator Pepper of Penn- sylvania, the president stressed his conviction that conditions appeared propituous -for another effort on the part of both sides to reach an agreement Mr. Harding warned that | the nation would face a grave disas- | ter. Senator Pepper read the letter at a conference here with Governor | Sproul, of Pennsylvania, and repre- sentatives of both miners and opera- | tors. e KAVANAUGH’S VIEW.
