The stock market was more active than on
any day since the present advance began, and
while marked advances were established in new
stocks, among which New England and Gould
stocks were the most prominent, the list was
sold down in the afternoon and the long-ex-
pected reaction is believed to have arrived. The
general sentiment on the street was in favor Of

stories were circulated coming from Boston, in
explanation of the sudden and sharp movement
in this stock, but all Of them lack confirma-

closely by Missouri Pacific. Other stocks were
strong, but interest conferred almost entirely in

encouraged operators for decline. and most Of
the early gains were wiped out, except for the
strong stocks Of the forenoon. In the last hour
