NEW YORK, March 14.-The stock market
opened strong on buyineEorderss from Lon

fierce attack on the whole market, and a
number of damaging rumors were put in
circulation. The market closed strong on
light business. A good demand for stocks,
and the short inerest is large in all promi-
nent shares. The business is still local ex-
cept for foreign orders, there being nothing
from domestic cities yet.

Petroleum opened firm 9714 after slight
decline, advanced rapidly to 98s4. Heavy
