There could be doubt Of the OF the market
day. 1t was upward and onward, and operators
seemed to be sure they were right from the man
ner In which they went ahead. Like the fellow
sn the fable who each time he was thrown TO
earth. gained strength, the market
hibited fresh vigor at every rebuff Nor there
any artificial aid afforded to assist the rise Shares
advanced moro from an innate confidence In
future higher prices than from any assistance
from purchases on short accounts. In fact, the
grizzlies of the stock market who for long
time threatened with tooth and claw seemed have
been butchered for bears and hung up in the
public shambles There confidence in better
state Of things which has been wanting stock circles
for months past. Like the youngster when first
trusted with night key, and when it is 'honor bright
that he must not abuse its privilege the Stock Ex-
change was allowed to take OF itself 1t may be
cynical but 1t is at the time prudent to hope
that the key hole may have disappeared when the
time comes turn and seek resting place.
