American Water Works common was again the individual feature, Jumping 8 points to a record price for all time at or more than double Us price iwv si. West Penn Power, one of its principal subsidiaries, jumped nearly' ing. Several specialties, however, were very prominent on the advancing side of prices. Quite a little profit taking was observable in many directions today and- it was also apparent that many of the floor professionals were working on the selling side with the idea that a reaction is overdue in the general market.

The oil stocks were again heavy. Selling In this group was inspired by reports of gasoline price reductions and principally by the Oil City Derrick's which showed another substantial increase in production during the week. The Iron Age Review was not aa optimistic in tenor as recent private reports touching on doings in the steel trade suggested. However, there are rather distinct signs pointing to a gradual improvement in the general run of trade. It is on this assumption largely that much of the buying power in the stock market is being stimulated in addition, of course, the demand emanating from investment sources influenced by the easy ruling of money and current rates for accommodation.

We still believe that the trend of stock market prices will continue upward.

United States Steel common, Baldwin and American Can all closed fractionally lower. Stvdebaker closed unchanged at 38, after having established a new 1924 top at 38.

American Smelting established a new high price at 66, despite reports of lower red metal prices. Recent strength of the copper shares however, is based on the higher quotations for large quantities of which are mined by most of the large copper companies. Call money held at 2 per cent all day. Time money and commercial paper rates were unchanged in. quiet trading.

Foreign exchange rates held relatively firm with trading restricted pending further developments on the reparations situation. THE GU MPS SAY IT WITH SILENCE SEW YORK STOCKS Y0U V4tA fikX.

Before the day was ended, much profit taking took place, but the buying continued to be of surprising volume to the last. Wheat' owed its strength largely to unfavorable crop comment from the Canadian northwest and to assertions that the domestic spring crop was in danger from black rust. Indications of good export business tended also to lift values, despite accurate forecasts that the government report as to wheat would prove bearish.
