Stocks-Although the volume Of bust
ness IN stocks to-day was only moderate,
the speculative temper was cheerful and
prices with mOmentary exceptions work
eel toward a higher plane. Outside buying
I however, was chiefly conspicuous by It's
I absence. The tone in financial circles is
becoming unQualifedly bullish, although
the market fluctuations We're practically
controlled by a few Of the more import

Gently. the attention of the street was
largely turned on the ovcrswelling gold
engagements and arrivals In ConSerVa-
i've circles II Is now believed that the
StHogtvu0 mark Will be reached. The ar
I'NsttS to-day footed up about N.29IO0O,
and there was deposited at the sub-treas-
Cr\ Sa,uVIND. OF which sum about s. 500. 600
viii accrue to the treasury gold reserve.
Ihe actual treasury gold holdings at the
close OF business tomorrow will not be
known until Monday. but are expected to
come close to $4,000. COO Rumors were
current of preparations in London 10 shin
about EO.O0JUOu additional gold 10 this
country. London figured both as a buyer
and a seller. The traders at the close
were engaged In discussing the probable
showing OF the associated banks to-mor-
row. The theory is that the resources Of
the banks have been swclled by about
Nth'ttV1 and shipments of funds TO the
interior for the week were about $1,000. 600.
I'm addition. the sub-treasury transferred
ABOUT SZ.5lO.000. The financial tension at
New Orleans was increased to-day by an
other bank suspension. The closing was
strong az about the best prices Of the day.
