The Commercials money article says the
Stock Market retains the improvement noted
YESTERDAY. There are fair degrees of activity
in some of the leading stocks, and at the close
of the morning Board prices We're IA 10
per cent. above closing figures of yesterday.
A late bear combination, consisting of five
strong firms, who were the means Of forcing
down the quotation last week, have now taken
the opposite track, hoping to make profit
out of bull movement. They find, however,
the advance much more difficult of achieve
ment than the decline, for the reason that
they now operate against the feeling of the
market. While in the opposite movement they
were aided by strong tendency of the mar
ket, they find the whole of the old bull inter
est ready to sell to,any amount of stock. Not
being prepared to shoulder such burden,
their success must be very limited.
Governments are comparatively quiet, pend
ing the action of Congress on the Finance
bill.
Money continues very abundant. Private
bankers receive deposits generally at 4 per
cent. Applications for loans on Railroad Col
laterals are mostly met at per cent. The
demand, however, is very limited, large bank
ers having as much money on hand as they.

rency Westward, but not sufficient to effect
the tone of the market.
Discounts are without change. Foreign
exchange nominal. Gold is in more demand
from importers, and price tends upwsrds.
