New York, Aug. 28.-The upward move
ment in stocks made further progress to-
day, 32l, 349 shares of stocks and 81, $4,000
railroad and miscellaneous bonds having
changed hands at advancing prices. The
low priced issues were the special faVO-
rites during the early session, but toward
the close the Changers doomed into promi-
hence again, and We're bought on liberal
scale by operators who sold out yesterday,
on the belief that the rise in these issues
had been carried too far. A sharp outside
demand for such stocks as Pacific Mail,
Big Bour, Wabash, preferred, Pittsburg
and Western, preferred, St. Paul and Du-
luth Denver and Rio Grande, Tennessee
Coal, Missouri Pacific and Susquehanna
and Western, seemed to convince the tai
ent, as the professional element is called
now a days, of the error of judgment and
in the late trading this class of operators
were quite prominent, and buyers OF the
standard issues. The rise in the low priced
stocks was equal to 1885 per cent, the
later in Pittsburg and Western, preferred,
which was bought on the steadily increas-
ing earnings of the road. Late in the day
the Changers attracted most attention, and
naturally so, in view OF the favorable re-
ports of the ST. Paul and Chicago and Eas-
tern Illinois roads for the month of July.
The first named reported a gain in net
earnings of $35S. 62f and the latter an in
crease of $3s.35s. St. Paul sold up TO IA,
Rock Island TO S4as; Omaha, TO IS; North
west to 1861 and Burlington and Quincy
TO 92ss. These figures are the best attain
ed since the present bull campaign started.
