Dealings Were Larger and Quotations " Higher Than in-Recent Sessions. New York, Sept. 20.—Dealings in stocks today were on a larger and more iprehensive basis than at any recent , to the general accompani- ment of higher quotations. To be sure, war ‘specialties yielded rione of their recent prominence, but the undertone of tHe market. was strengthened by ‘what seemed to be an inguiry from investment sources for the better known railways and other issues of recognized merit. Sentiment was en- couraged by the course of foreign ex- change, which agaln rose appreciably on the growing belief of a satisfactory consummation of. the Anglo-French credit negotiations. It is understood, however, that some of the more im- portant details connected with that important undertaking remain to be settled, such as the sum total and the exact purpese to which the proceeds are to be applied. External conditions, so far as they bore upon affairs-across the water, ex- erted little influence in either direction, although London once more reported a heavy tone for the international list. Metal ‘stocks, \notably American Smelt- ing, which rose 3. 1-4 to 84 3-4, and the sharés -of -other. -ompanies having that | Mexican interests,. improved for the Most part, apparently.in recognition of latest diplomatic. developments affect- 0.7 New high records, some of which were partly lost at the active close, included Studebaker with an extreme gain of 11 3-4 at 141, General Motors 8 to 208, Willys-Overland 7 to 210, United States Industrial Alcohol 6 to 1-2, and American Woolen 2 3-8 to 49 3-4. Such Tecent favorites as New York Air Brake rose 12 1-4 to 157 1-4, Bethlehem Steel 6 to 350, and Crucible Steel 2 3-4 to 96 1-2. United States Steel :1led the movement fluctuating within a range of 1 3-8 and closing at 76 1-8, a net gain of 3-8. The only heavy features were Colorado Fuel and Great Northern Ore, which relinquished a considerable part of last ‘week's gains on denial of “combina- tion” rumors. Total sales amounted to 930,000 shares. ‘ _ Domestic news included western ad- vices indicating and easier busi- ness conditions and improvement in the traffic situation, due mainly to heavier receipts from grain centers. i The . bond: ‘was firm without especial feature. Total sales, par value, aggregated $8,125,000.

An American motor truck has ried off the honors in the Buro) war. Singularly enough it is the lead- ing British automobile magazine that gives America the palm, while the rest of the English grieving mournfully over the Yankee motor truck invasion with alleged in- ferior products.

When it is borne in mind that, after all, me- chanical transport in its present form has not aimed at competing with ani- mal traction on its own ground, the performance of the motor truck is un- doubtedly remarkable.” The motor truck in question pos- sesseg its - unusual traction qualities from the fact of having power aplied ] to all four wheels and a postitive non- slipping drive to each road wheel. Owners of automobiles are beginning to wake up to the fact that theye is one great cause for the many- road accidents which - keep the newspaper columns sprinkled with harrowing ac- . The tendency has always been these smash-ups to imperfect steering mechanism, faulty brakes or other deficlencies in the makeup of the cars, but now,the knowledge is be- coming more general that the failure of tires to cling to the road and the unexpected skidding at bad spots on the macadam cause by war the percentage of automobile accidents. The secretary of the A. A. A. was himself recently a victim of on of these smash-ups, due entirely to ekid- ding, although at first the accident was attributed by the newspapers to faulty steering-geér. Those who, have fre- quentdy undergone similar experiences testify to the fact that the skidding that occurred was not the more familiar back-wheel skid, but the slip- ping of the front wheels — which caused the car either to overturn or land with emashing force against some roadside telegraph pole or tree.
