New" York, May 14. -Enough short covering purchases came 'into yesterday's market for shocks to im part a firm tone to prices at the end of trading. In fact, there wa little evidence at any time, of selling pres sure from professional ' or other sources, and in case of certain steel and petroleum issues, offerings were sufficiently scanty to cause -one to three points gain on a few bids. The unsatisfactory feature of se curity dealings was again the de cline of Liberty bonds and the 4 and 34 pen cent notes. Liquidation brought at times declines of one-' quarter to a half-point in tin's group, which is weakness reflccti of . in sistent selling that pays less, regard to price, jhan to immediate conver sion, of bonds into' cash. Govern ment war issues of small denomina tions figure protninenyy in current dealings and at-would not be surpris ing if Necessities of wage earners are having a part in the market to an extent greater than during the win ter. N. "' ' The railroad strikes and consequent dfctturbancB of orderly and regular de liveries of goods have thrown many fac tories upon a part-time worklrfg schedule, an in some localities reports leu oi com plete shut downs, which entail loss of wages. Labor has no less at stake In rail road upbuilding and freedom of traffic movement than-thoae other groups whosa function In the industrial, structure' It Is to supSly capital for manufacturing and distributing products. t , Call Money Higher, i Cell money reached 1$ peY cent after standing loans had been renewed at I per cent and the rate did. not slip under 10 per cent at the close of business, al though offerings were reported largely In oxeess of bids. It was interesting to note in news illspaachea the western federal re serve banks were expecting substantial aid from eastern Institutions in financing ag ricultural needs In the next few weka, which presupposed that rediscounts atthe New Tork, Boston and Philadelphia banks for account o others would begin to ex pand shortly. , A The situation is not fllfficulfto visualise. The congestion of rullronds hss padlocked towns represented by grain in elevators and factory products, and fresh demands for accommodation In the grain regions are Imperative if there are to be adequate crops. While this situation exists there set-ms small chance for an easement I'm credit available for speculative dealingslin securities and commodities. On the on trary, the elements for further pressure by banks to reduce loans In loss essen tial lines are made more powerful than mon I h ago. Railroads Fill Xejds. The prominent rallrOads. in need of capital are rapidly filling their require ments through th Security market and It remains only for better transportation of steel to bring about early additions In quantity to railway rolling stock. The bankers for the Louisville and Nashville and Atlantic Coast Line placed yesterday $13,500,000 lT)-year 7 per cent bonds at par. This week mole than $48,000,000 paper ,of this class has, gone to Investors, and the market is not yet showing signs of surTelr. Sterling exchange eased off slightly to day, maktnff lttle If any response to jex pectatlons of ffesh gold Imports from Lon don. Marks iwcre . firm and other con tinental rates moved Irregularly. The downward tendency . of the silver price was made more pronounced through a quotation of 61 pence per ounce at T.nnrinn. a new low record ' for the year. At New York the decline carried the price down through $1 per ounce to 99 He, arousing wonder whether or not the gov ernment would appear as a buyer under provisions of the, Plttman act.
