DAY'S TRADING IS LARGE Dealings Are Mainly of Profes sional Character Sadden Klse in Call Money Hate Pre cipitates Selling. NEW YORK, Oct. 37. Dttrlnc the greater ! part of today's active stock market trading was conducted on an almost steady advance prices. In the last hour, however, -much f this grain was forfeited, the list closing with an irregular undertone. It was a matter cf general comment that dealing's, which again approximated the large total of 3,340,000 shares, seemed mainly of & professional character, lacking the investment demand of recent weeks. It Im not unlikely that the selling at conces sions toward the close was precipitated in part by a sudden rise In call money to 4 per cent. No special reason was offered to account or the hardening of demand loans, but rumors to tho effect that financial Instl- utiom were discriminating aea.nst certain industrial collateral exerted a deterrent In ffunce. The unusual activity of numerous low- priced rails and industrials, as well as other specialties hitherto in the background, was noteworthy feature. United States Steel once more fluctuated between 20 and 25 per cent of the whole. Marines, Reading, Republlo Fteel.
