' New York, March 6. Inclement
weather cut down attendance of
member! at the Stock Exchange and
ferf thm nnmhr rf tnAer in mm-
mission houses today with the re
sult of a desultory market in stocks.
On the whole prices were firm to
strong, several specialties moving
! forward three points and more.
Naturally, in view of the small total
of dealings it was not possible t
' read in the price changes "anything
more significant than the efforts ot
day-to-day speculators to acquire
quick profits.
Foreign Exchange Reacts.
The foreign exchange market re
acted from the levels established the
day before, a development which
seemed to represent considerable
profit taking. The range covered
by sterling during the week, 28 l-4c
to the pound, was so extraordinary
" an advance that purchasers at the
lower levels on Monday and Tues
day probably were active at the
week-end in Realizing their gains.
Since February 4 sterling has
scored a maximum improvement of
more than 30 cents to the pound and
at vnriQv final nnntatii-m thf rati
was substantially above the point
where it began to drop in the spec
tacular decline of last month. It
would be interesting to know the
extent to which sales of American
' securities for European account in
the last weeks have created balances
here for England and France. Re
ports of really extensive liquidation
'from abroad have been heard and
at the same time there have been
expanding sales of British, French
and Italian government securities in
onr market.
," Expansion in Bonds.
.The many advertisements by
bunking: and brokerage houses of the
.indicates that a wide circle, of in
vestors has been appealed to and it
stands to reason that the oppor
tunity for a high rrturn plus the
speculative chance in the exchanges
.of countries-issuing the bonds has
ncen accented in manv Quarters.
Also sale's of municipal bonds of
'Germany in other countries ha,ve
bee nreported on expanding scales.
.These transactions presumably have
Jiuu up into millions of dollars and
may have been a real influence be
Jiind the rise of exchanges. It re
mains to be seen whether or not
the upturn of sterling can be main
tained. In the last analysis the in
ternational trade movements of the
next few months will. . have more
effect upon exchanges than a mod
erate transfer of gold to the United
States or the scattered sales of for
eign securities.
Motor Shares Gain.
Motor shares and their special
ties provided most of the diversion
at extrcjne gains .of 2 to 7lA points,
but metals of the secondary groups
also food shares and specialties of
the class represented by Famous
Players and Loew's were fairly ac
tive, advancing 1 to 5 points.
There was little inquiry for rails,
steels and equipments moved nar
rowly with nominal changes at the
'end. The only backward issues were
ioils, but short covering repaired
most losses in that division, sales
amounted to 235,000 shares.
Decrease of almost $32,500,000 in
actual excess reserves, leaving the
total excess at a bare $2,700,000 was
the striking feature of the clearing
house statement. The actual loan ac
count showed no material changes
