HEW HIGH BEC0BD IS HADE EspeelatlOM of Poor Bank Statement Has Some Restraining Influence on General Movements Bond Heavy. NEW YORK. Oct. I United State Btel continued to hold th center of speculative attention In today stock market, but Its making of further new record prices did not carry the whole market upwards with It. Expectation of a poor bank statement bad some restraining force on the general movement, but the movement in Lulled States Steel Itself caused aome feeling of distrust. ' There Is growing conjecture of some spe cial development in prospect aside from the prosperous trade condition to account for the rapid approach of this 3 per cent Industrial dividend stock to par. The con jecture evidently alms to adjust Itself to the high price of both the preferred and common stock of United States Steel com pared with other Industrial stock and th contrary tendency in the price of the coin pany'a sinking fund bonds, which have shown some decline while the stock wer breaking previous records. A distribution in the form of a bonus out of the capitali sation of the Gary plant of the corporation wag a favorite form of speculative surmise conoerning steel, a surmise which had no official countenance to back It. Atchison also made a new high record with the ap proach of th dividend meeting. There were other points of strength In the list, including the newly listed Pacific coast telephone stock and the Southern Railroads the latter, In spite of the apprehension o( a very poor government report on cotton condition next week. Pennsylvania was strengthened by renewed rumor that the new stock issue with subscription rights to stockholder might be forthcoming during October. There were reports that the New lorK central systems had nanaiea tne largest number of loaded freight cars dur lng September of any month in Its history, but the stock did not respond. London shipped large amounts of gold to Egypt and fears of dearer money atfected the lone of the London stock market. Th state of the call money market here was not disclosed.
