United States bonds were unchanged on call. Closing Letters. (By C. Hudson Co.) I Stocks were fairly steady during most of the afternoon, with some strong spots. There was but, little selling pressure anywhere.

A report was current that a decision in one of the anthracite railroad cases is likely to be handed down this week, though it was not clear just what case was meant, but it was supposed to be that brought under the Hepburn law and to pertain to the rights of railroads to own the products which they carry. This caused a little hesitation among traders for a time. We think stocks are due to have another bulge soon, and we would buy them on weak spots, taking moderate profits. The absence of selling pressure at this level is noteworthy. The metal group was strong on belief that the next report of the Copper Producers' Association would be a good one and would show a decrease in stocks of metal on hand.

By Brooks Co.) Another spurt of bullish activity the late afternoon brought leading stocks up to or a shade above Monday's closing level, but trading aid not broaden nor did it lose Its professional appearance. All the metal issues, but particularly American Smelters and Utah Copper, advanced on reports of improvement in the copper trade, but these reports were not credited in Quarters usually well Informed.
