Motors and their specialties, spec-ialties, al30 shippings and sugar shares, made substantial gains. Practically Prac-tically nil the L-lbcrty bonds mid Victory Vic-tory notes made new low,' records. U became evident before noon that the course of the market, like that of the preceding session, would bo governed gov-erned largely by money conditions. ! Call loans opened at 10 per cent.
