New York, Aug. —Apart from a new premium for Libe: 1-2's which rose to 101.06, and the strength of chippings and rails, L stock market was one of the most in- significant of the dull summer sea- son. The usual leaders moved in a very contracted radius, U. S. Steel for ex- |ample, varving only tne smallest | fraction until the final hour, when it manitested a firemr tone with asso- ciated industrials. Inquiry for shippings seemed to have its origin in the belief that ne- gotiations for the advantageous of the Mercantile Marine Company's British assets are approaching a satisfactory conclusion. Marine prefer- red scored an advance of 1 1-2 points, the common gaining a substantial fraction and American International Corporation one point on the. growing recogniticn of its shipbuilding opera- tions. TRails were featured by Canadian Pacific, which was unusually active at two point advance, its subsidiary S00,” making a similar gain. t. Pauls and New Haven held firm on signs of further accumulation. Sales 172,000 shares. The bond market was irregular, Lib- erty issues contributing extensively to the enlarger turnover.
