THE DAYS OPERATIONS IN STOCKS.

The forces responsible FOR the present expand
ing stock market are growing in strength daily
and. barring exceptional accidents. they must
continue for some time 10 find expression IN
higher prices for securities. Market values gave
further response yesterday to the constantly
improving Industrial and financial position or
the country Everybody appeared anxious 10
acquire stocks despite the fact that prices have
already made conspicuous advances and those
people who had stocks to soil disposed OF their
holdings at handsome profits The reaction!sts
worked for lower quotations. but were unsuc-
Cessful in forcing declines. the few losses re-
corded being due to profit taking sales. rather
than 10 bear operations. 1t is a poor period for
the advocates Of lowe values. and the operators
who so short of the current market would seem
sadly lacking in ordnary common sense.
The time will come wher short sales VIII
prove profitable. but the best judges of tho mar
ket believe that that time is a long way of. and
that there will be no decided change In the
movement Of values until the bear marke' has
run its natural course. When worthless stocks
are pushed up and speculation runs wild then
there may be attractive spots on the short side.
And when there is some real cause for alarm
over the business situation stocks may so down.
