During the dav a feeling prevailed In

was in for' a further reaction of good

Exports of wheat and flour from North

steadily decreasing the last month ana
they give promise of further reduction
for the next few weeks.

Bulls Pleased
With Mellon s
Announcement
Decline in <lull Money Rate
Proves Accuracy of Secre
tary's Statement Regard
ing Credit.
Ill RICHARD SPIl.f.ASF..
litlversiil Smlfe Flnancal Editor.
New York. Dec. 1*. Secretary Mellon’*
<’ imnt'oi today that he did not view
the present fluctuations in the stock
nutrki‘ na serious or extreme hut natural,
was pleasing to bulls and unpleasant and
surprising to Dears.
A decline in call money rates from 3
per cent to 2% was viewed as proof of
the accuracy of the secretary'* statement
regarding credit
Today's market started as If ft was
K« mg to be a repetition of Wednesday's
with competitive bidding for control of
certain of the rails. Lehigh Valley onened
1 points up and Heading 1% while I'nlou
Pacific, Norfolk A Western and Western
Pacific had considerable advances. Vn
rlous other issues outside the rail group
were up from 2 to 5 points in the first
half hour.
Ralls tvere the feature In the morning
and oils In the afternoon.
The fils supplanted the rails later In
thy dHy, very good progress In a market
way being made by nearly all the large
companies.
The motors were strong with the truck
companies, Mack and White, moat in
favor.
All ihe merchandisers were up.
Transactions again exceeded 2,000.00c
shares.
Money easy.
Foreign exchange strong, eterling and
francs higher.
When* dominated the grains.
Corn was Inclined to lag but was swept
along by the strength of wheat.
Apparently there will be a good market
for all the grain America can spare for
export to Europe between now arid the
time the next crop is harvested.
(’otton acted as If tired. With demand
reduced prices eased off gradually, the
• log* being 23 to 29 points down front
Wednesday.
Coffee fairly active and closed 1€ to
35 down.
Sugar still Is flagging under the pressure
of new crop.
