TRADES ON LARGE SCALE Officials Predict Tliat Heavy Orders for Equipment Will Be Placed After the November Election. Bank Kate Higher. NEW TORK, Oct. 20. The dealings on the renewed upturn in prices today wer'J congested even more than usual in United States Steel. The action of - that stock begot the suspicion that the new movement rep resented a change in th auspices under which the market operations were conducted. The rise In United States Steel placed it well above the previous level touched on the present movement, snd, In tact, above any price touched since June. Then It reached 79 . but fell precipitately to the lowest of the year, 61T4, less than a month later. The potent factors in the Immedlate'ntovement which carried United States Bteel today to ,9. undonbtedly were the crop conditions disclosed by the October Government report and the report, referred to by the Iron Age today, that "prominent railroad officials have advised steel manufacturers that a much more liberal policy In placing orders for equipment Is to be expected after the election next month." The 5 per cent discount rate established by the Bank of England today may cause easier financial conditions. The conviction is general that the stock market advance this month In New Tork has been financed by fcorrowlnrs from the London market. The conviction Is equally clear that the new step taken by the Bank of England Is de signed to check these borrowings and to conserve London money supplies for intend ed capital flotations in the market and. for active trade needs in Great Britain. International exchanges all turned In fa vor of lndon in response to action of the Bank of England. The private discount rate rose m rjerun. 1 11a inn -. In New Tork was unaffected.
