MARKETS-STOCKS Daily Report of Local and Foreign Markets. New York Stock Exchange New York, May 12—The opening of Lackawanna today overshadowed the whole market at the start of trading on the New York stock exchange. Wall street had a well founded report that Bethlehem’s absorption of the latter would involve the exchange of % of a share of Bethlehem B and| some rights with respect to Bethle- 1 hem 7 per cent preferred for each share of Lackawanna and the latter soared to 73 on the first sale and immediately ran up to 75. This price compared with 65% at the previous close and a low of 57%. on Thursday. Bethlehem opening was comparatively tame. B sold at 79*£, on the initial transaction of %. 11:30—Lackawanna sold off about three points from its opening high in the first half hour and there were reactions of about a point in some of the speculative leaders, but the general market maintained its strength and a new forward movement was I started in the Maxwell issues on the I New York stock exchange today. Maxwell A reached 70, up 2*£ from Thursday’s low wfiile B sold at 22, a recovery of over two points. Persistent accumulation of Maxwell B by important fisancial interests has been based on the fact that the company’s earnings are running at a rat whirh justifies the restoration of the eight per cent dividend on this issue. Full rate must be paid I before B stock receives any distributions. Mergers and rumors of mergers kept speculative enthusiasm in the steels at fever pitch in the third hour. Lackawanna made a new high at 78*4 and Wickwire-Spencer sold up to 21% against Thursday's low of 16*4 on intimations that it would be included in the combination with Bethlehem. Reports were also spread that Crucible would absorb United Alloy Steel. Crucible advanced to 70% against 67*4 Thursday while United Alloy moved up to "9%. Bethlehem B continued active around 82.
