THE TIMES' DAILY
FINANCIAL STORY
(B. T. C. Shotwell.)
New York, Ausr. 24 London wnt
over higher prices today and as a re
sult Wall street had a firmer opening.
This induced selling but the offer
ings were light. After a half hour of
hesitation the market became firm with
Consolidated Gas, Steel and Reading
in leadership. Rubber first preferred
was another strong feature. Cora
products was more active than for
some weeks, advancing across 2G.
Harriman stocks wer quiet with only
nominal business in them early in the
day.
The professionals in the street hesi
tated to make heavy commitments un
til the arrival of Harriman, when it
is expected that something definite re
garding prvsical condition can be
learned. Steel shares were helped by
a statement of Judge Gary that the
trust is developing several processes to
cheapen the cost of production. He
says the trust is expending $l,000,0CO
a month at the Gary Plant.
Wheat continued quiet In Chicago
with a sagging tendency.
On the curb market the silver shares
and porphyry copper were steady with
business light.
Directors of the Southern Pacific
and Union Pacific met today and de
clared only the regular dividend on
both stocks. Although this had been
expected some persons pretended to
be disappointed and sold stocks, with
the result that there was a slight de
cline following the announcements.
In the last hour, however, renewed
strength appeared because of the ar
rival of E. H. Harriman at Quaran
tine and a statement by him that his
health was better.
