Profit Taking, in Recent Fa
vorites—Other Issues
Took Their Places.
Now York. Oct. 11.—The Bank of
England, aa had been expected today,
Increased Its rate of discount from 4
to 5 per cent. Its accompanying state
ment of financial conditions made tills
action of course Imperative. Tho pro
portion of reserve to liabilities haa now
sunk to the abnormally low figure of
35 per cent, which haa on only one or
two occasions been equalled In recent
years. Neither abroad nor at home,
however, were the markets disturbed
by the news. Investment securities
In London were steady and Amertcnn
stocks were quoted higher. In the early
dealings here the movement was again
extremely Irregular, but the tendency
toward higher prices continued distinct
ly at all times and where some of the
recent favorites were given over to
profit-taking, plenty of others appeared
to take their places. The • Pacific
stocks, Pennsylvania, Copper, Balti
more and Ohio nnd Louisville and
Nashville and the traction shares wora
prominent In the buying, the sharp rise
In the laat-named claiming special sig
nificance because this Is the group
most directly concerned In the stato
election.
Smelting and Copper rose 3-8 and
St. Paul and Steel preferred and Atchi
son gained 1-4 In the opening of the
stock market this morning. Louisville
and Nashville gained 1-2 In all.
The stock msrkst was ognln strong
In spots and with a generally firm-un
dertone. In early trading Union Pa
cific, Pennsylvania and St. Paul wero
the strongeat features. Union Paelfla
waa carried up to 191 3-8, tho highest
at which the stock has sold sluce It
was ex-dividend. 8t. Paul advanced to
178 1-8. Toward the end of the first
hour Copper became active end etrong.
Bo far London bought about ' 15,000
shares, chiefly Pennsylvania, Union Pa
cific and Steel and Amalgamated.
Government bonds unchanged; other
bonds firm.
