ATLANTA. OA.
By Private Leased Wire.
New York, August 18.—Aa the be
havior of the market In the laat half
hour of Saturday's session 'had fore
shadowed, no aerloua Ihltuence waa ex
ercised today either by the heavy
shrinkage of bank raaervea or by the
comparative flrmnees which followed It
In today's money market. Both call
and time loans were maintained at
laat week’s higher level, but quotations
went no higher. The bulk of the day’s
new credit business on the stock ex
change waa arranged for from 4 to
4 1-1 per cent. On the other hand,
some encouragement wai afforded by n
further decline In sterling exchange to
day, and by the disclosure that the
banka ntart the week with a gain of
11,100,000 in their operatlona at the
subtreaaury. The ruling figures on de
mand sterling arc now ao close to the
gold Import point that engagements at
any moment are likely. If money rate*
were to rise any higher than they nre
It would Immediately precipitate the
movement, and It la evident that rely
ing on thla la why the stock market re
fuses to take a more aerloua view of
the money outlook. At the opening to
day Brooklyn Rapid Transit fell 2
points on the Be fare decision and the
disturbances occasioned by It on the
company's line yesterday. But the gen
eral Hat waa entirely unaffected by the
drop In thla stock. It followed a higher
London range, and throughout the fore
noon kept pointed pretty constantly up
ward. The great strength In the Pa
cific sltareo, heavy buying of the Cop
per shares, and a smart fall In the In'
terborouglt Rapid Transit Issues on the
publication of the favorable showing for
the June quarter were the main fea
tures for the trading.
The Block market, opened at almost
general advances extending to 8-4 In
Reading, Baltimore and Ohio and St.
Paul, the latter up 3-8. Atchison, Can
adian Pacific, Metropolitan and Union
Pacific were 1-4 higher. . Brooklyn
Rapid Transit was exceptionally weak,
and down 1 7-8 at the opening at 781-8.
Amalgamated copper o;iened 1-4 higher.
After Irregular changes In the first
few minutes the market became decid
edly stronger and material gains were
made all around the room, aome stocks
advancing to the highest prices reach
ed this year. Southern Pacific was the
most prominent feature. After early
salea at 78 1-1, It advanced t|> 78 7-8,
The buying was one of the most Ivt-
B receive character. Union Pacific pnil
t. Paul b’oth rose on buying of the
same character aa Southern Pacific.
Rapid Trt

Anaconda
strong.
An effort waa made to dep-ess Penn

stock was In good demand. London
