Some of the specjaities were again bid up to new high levels and con- structive p proptiogs were car- ried out at intervals in varlous oll, public utility, rubber, shipping and food shares, but these influences were counteracted by steady selling of high priced railroad, motor’ and tobacco shares and the heaviness of such influential stocks as American Can and DuPont. With commission houses advising caution in extend- ing commitments on the buying side and even questioning the character of recent accumulation, speculative clique’ engountered stiff resistance in their attempts to bolster up thelr favorites. Fluctuations were less violent than in recent sessions. but wide swings occurred in Chrysler, which broke six points at one time, and United Fruit, which Jumped § points, The advance in call loans to six per cent, the highest renewal rate since early in the year, acted as restricting influe NEW YORK, Sept. 30.—( s ciated Prers). — Buying operatiot were resumed on a large scale at thé op with « ay's mand nark, ng for brisk d many of tho rece speculative fa- vorites.

New high records for the year were established by a dozen stocks within the half hour, Renew- ed buying of the rubber shares was inspired by the belief that prospérity for the tire manufactugers will natu- rally follow the expansion of bust!- ness in the automobile» industry, while equipments were in demand on indjcation of heavy fall returns of the carriers. General Baking and Ward “B” extended thelr gains to about five points and further dem- onstration of strength were given by Pullman, Railway Steel Springs, Westinghouse Airbrake, U. 8S. Rub- ber, Western Union and U.'S. Steel. Chrysler encountered heavy profit- taking and fell back six points, but other motors. forged ahead. For- eign exchanges were mixed, sterling easing off to $4.83 15-16, while Bel- gium franes rose 6 polhts'to $4.42. ReaYizing in some of the * motor and high priced shares, a drop in Genera! Baking from 224% to 217% and a 5% per cent renewal rate for call loans was too strong a com- bination for the general’ market to stand up against and prices fell away {n all directions, Subsequent ‘active bidding for U. 8. Steel, which advanced to 121 and brisk buying of the ofl, shipping, rubber, paper, leather, May Department Store, American Linseed and Dodge Brothers “A” shares caused the market to head upwards again be- fore noon. United Fruit jumped eight. points. ‘ The closing was heayy;,stop loss orders were uncovered tn the late dealings and coupled with increased bear gelling caused a severe decline before indications of support appear- ed.

Two bodies» have been brought up by divers and 31 more presumably are in the wreckage, The two giant sea cranes, Mon- arch and Century, which were driv- en into Newport by a stormy sea, started again for the scene shortly after midnight only to be turned back. . Operations of, divers yesterday in closing the conning tower hatch and forcing air into the submarine had raised hopes that the cranes would be able to bring her to the surface, Slings had been placed about the stern of the sunken vessel and ali preparations had been made to be- gin work with the expected arrival of the derricks at dawn. ‘The sea had almost been glas: smooth during the afternoon, but a northeast wind sprank up early in the evening and the last message from _the rescue fleet said its yeloc ity had reached about 25 miles an hour and that white caps were be- ing kicked up.
