BY GEORGE T. HUGHES, NEW YORK. August 20.—Specula- tion in the stock market reached the | R ay. Enormous overnight ! buying orders lifted prices at the start, affer which the advance was checked | or turned into other channels by offer- | | ings on the part of those who had sub- | | stantial profits on which they wanted | to_realize. | The turnover was very heavy, much larger than on the day before. In the |\ first hour the tape feil 22 minutes be- | hind and resort was had to the bond! ticker for prices, that were up to the | moment. Steel 1s Of course, U. S. Steel was the center of interest. It made a nmew high for the year of 155 Tuesday and it bettered | this” price fractionally today. Other steel stocks were in demand around their previous closing. although Centrzl { Alloy did make a new year's high and so_did Inland International Nickel performed sensa- tionally again. It was rushed acro 115 to a new top since listing for a gain of over 3 points, on top of the more than 9 points it had gone up Tuesday. Montgomery Ward initiated a fresh rise, crossing 220 to the highest | for all time. Consolidated Gas stood out among the utilities, the new stock ‘ rising 2 to 3 points, Amusement Stocks. Amusement stocks were actively bought under the leadership of Pare mount-Famous and Fox Film “A." the former at a new high. Stanley Co. of America increased its striking gain of Tuesday. Macy ran up again. new buyers attracted by the lower price now that it sells ex rights. National Cash Register went to a new top and the airplane stocks joined in, particularly Curtiss When the industrials faltered atten- tion was turned to the rails. The Missouri Pacific were among the | favorites, with the common at a new high and others were St. Louis South- | { western likewise higher than ever be- | fore, Missouri-Kansas-Texas and Kansas City Southern. Of the high grade dividend payers New York Central was the leader. There was an unusuall; large turnover in New York. Chicago and St. Louis around the low of the | year. ! Money renewed at 7'z per cent un- | | changed and the supply was said to be | equal to the demand. There was no | change in time money which was 6'. | per cent firmly bid for all maturities. There was little let-up in activity in | the afternoon. Buying was stimulated { by the easier tone in call money, which | was obtainable in the so-called out- ! | side market at 7 per cent. In the first | three hours the turnover was 2,342,000 | | shares, forecasting a 4.000.000 share 1 | day. | Sy | The copper stocks were given a whirl. | t American Smelting & Refining rose points to a new all-time peak just | under 244, Anaconda was in brisk | demand. up 2 points at 73. Greene Cananea went along and so for a time did Cerro de Pasco Other Favorites. Motors was 2 to 3 poini | higher on the day around 196. but the independents did little. Mack Trucl and White were strong and o the ac- | cessory field Briggs Manufacturing went | to a new top. One or two of the oils were taken up, notably General As- phalt and Warner Quinlan. Midland | Steel Products preferred. about 237, was up 7 points.
