THURSDAY, March lS-P NJ.
The stock market to-day bad more cheerful aI-
oearapce than for the TWO preceding days. Inc up
ward movement that was begun yesterday after
noon in the early hours to-day was pressed WIN
vieor 4: Ohio and Mississippi and Pacific Mail con-
Timing TO be the special features and lead
ers in the advance. The business OF the
dav also reflected the better feeling III
transactions amounting to 322,5OO shares
AGAINST 2S7 OF shares yesterday. The dealings III
Ohio and Mississippi amounted 10 oZ'oOo SHARES
From the opening figures, 37i2, against 3|4 YES
terday,s last price, there was an advance to Al L.
and the preferred stock rose from "a to 1872 IA
c6c Mail opeued I'D 30 per cent at 467s and rose 10
asia Erie, Lake Shore and Michigan Centrai
stocks all responded more or less to the hign
pressure which was brought 10 Oe'i
- tbo market but neither IN
the amount of business done nor III
their fractional advances did they present very
encouraging outlook for prolonged rise. Houston
and Texas. Louisville and Nashville and Nashville
Chattanooga and st. Louis, however, made sharp
advances although the small amount OF business
done NAV furnish evidence of lack OF general III
terest in the stocks. The grangers, Southwestern
stocks and the coal shares all were higher. Inc
only weak stocks we're those of the elevated rail-
roads Manhattan declined from so to 49l2. and
the Others were weak with less yielding IN price.
