Msry Baxter, Sch. Savannah, -oal; A. Number of Issues Swept Down 1 to 2 Points in Stock Market of Yes terday (By The Associated Press) NEW YORK. Jan. 10 President Harding's order for the withdrawal of American troops from Germany caus ed a flurry of speculative selling which carried a number of Issues down 1 to 2 points in today's stock market but these offerings were well absorbed and.

the market eventually turned upward under the stimulus of higher foreign exchange, lower call money rates and aggressive buying of special stocks. While the unsettled foreign situation continues to exert a restraining effect on the volume of business large traders, taking their cue from the strength and steadiness of foreign exchange, seem inclined to take a hopeful view of European condi tions. Demand sterling was quoted today at 4.64, an advance of more than one cent over yesterday's ruling rate while French francs moved up nearly 20 points to 6.91 cents. The Italian lire got back to the five cent mark and Belgium francs advanced 23 points to 6.35. Even the German mark rallied to 96-100 of a cent a hundred from Its extreme kw of 92-100 of a cent.

Baldwin and Studebaker, each of which reacted sharply on selling pressure, rallied briskly and closed the day at a not gain of 1 and 6-8 of a point respectively. Buying of Baldwin was influenced by the- receipt ot an order for 100 locomotives from the Pennsylvania railroad. United States Steel common and most of the independent Issues closed at fractional- gains despite a decrease of 94.534 tons in unfilled orders for December. Weekly trade nVlews continue optimistic stressing steadily Increased production and a hardening price tendency. California retroleum was one of the day's features, successfully resisting early celling pressure by climbing to 76 7-8, the highest price in ten years.

It closed ac 76, a net gain of 3 6-8 points. Buying on the part ot Interests is held responsible for the recent strength of this stock. Some good alns were recorded among the other oils, jumping 6 2-8 points and Pan-American 13 Houston, Royal Dutcn and Cosden rising 1 to 2 1-2 pointa, the last named touching 65 1-2 another now high on the present bull move ment. General Asphalt-common and pfd were weak. Specialties took a prominent part In the late advance, Fostum Cereal ad vancing 7 3-8 points on the day, Beechnut moving up 5 3-4 on spscu- lative expectations of a furtntr in crease in dividends and Nash Motor rising 6 points on the announcement that dividends at the rate ot 10 had been declared on the new stock.

Among the other conspicuous strong spots were all American cables, United States Realty, Owens Bottle and Tidewater Oil, jail up to 4 points. Chicago pneumatle Tool, Delaware and Hudson and General Electric were among ths active issues to 3how acute weakness, the losses be lug about 2 points encn. Lake Erie and Western pfd broke nearly points on a small turnover. Caall money opened it 4 3-1 per cent, eased off to 4 1-2 within an hour and thence to 4, where it ch.sed. Time money was quoted at 4 1-2 per cent bid and 4 3-4 nsked with loans arranged at both rates.

Commercial paper rates continued easy, the bulk of the business being done on a 4 1-2 per cent basis. Bond Review Further recovery of French bonds and renewed weakness ot the St. Paul Railroad liens were the out standing developments In today's irregular bond dealings. Strength ot the foreign exchange undoubtedly stimulated the buying ot European securities. United Kingdom of Great Britain 5 l-2s duplicating their hign record of 115 established last December and gains ot 1 1-4 points being registered by French 7 l-2s and 8s, Seine 7s.

Lyons 6s, Holland-American 6s, Cuba Government 5s of 1949 and Cuba Railroad 5s. Serbian 8s dropped 2 points to a new low at 65 1-2. There was no apparent reason for the further decline of St. Paul lines although, weakness of the general llfct was ascribed in some quarters to the competition provided by the flood of new securities that have been put on the market the first of the year. St.

Paul'refunding 4 l-2s suffered an extreme decline of 2 5-8 points while the 4s of 1925, the debenture 4s and the convertible 4 l-2s lost one to 1 1-4. Other weak spots in the railroad list were Frisco 5s and Norfolk and Western 4s, Atlantic Coast Line 4s and Seaboard Air Line 4s. International and Great Northern adjustment 6s dropped 5-8 but made up their loss while Seaboard consolidated 6s made up about half ot an extreme loss of 3 points. The few bright spots were New York, Westchester and Boston 4 l-2s, Toledo, St. Louis and Western 4s, Rio Grande refunding 5s and Erie convertible 4s, allup 1 to 1 1-2 points.

Merger talk continues to have a favorable effect on Chile Copper 7s winch added another point today, be ing followed Into higher ground by Cerro de Pasco 8s, Detroit 7s ot 1933 and some ot the local tractions. Cuba Cane convertible 7 drop ped 1 3-4 and American Writing Paper 6s, one United States Government first 4 1-2 per cent bonds gained 2 cents on $100 and the new 4 l-4s were un changed, the other active issues showing losses ot 2 to 6 cents. Public offerings will be made tomorrow of a 135.000,000 issue of Bell Tele phone company, of Pennsylvania 25- year 5 per cent first and refunding mortgage bonds, callable at par and interest after July 1943. The price is 98 1-2 to yield slightly more than 5.10 per cent. Banking and financial problems In volved In the desire of the.

Anaconda Copper company to refund its outstanding mortgages not ail of which are callable In order to provide for a large bond issue estimated as high as 1130,000.000 to finance the pur chase of the Guggenheim interests in Chile at 135 a share is holding up the proposed merger of those companies.
