THURSDAY. Dec. 3.
On, q fairly large volume Of business the
utocemarket to-day showed In the mnin a firm
tone. AT the close OF business tho days gross
advances we're materially shaded owing to n
more or less general afternoon reaction, but
notwithstanding this the majority Of the list
made further progress to a higher level. The
significant feature OF the day was. however.
again furnished by the dealingsi In bonds. which
attained a par value total OF upward Of
$4,000. 900. In this division Of the mar
ket the tone was strong throughout the
business session. and except in the more
speculative issues there was no partici-
patton In the. noted reaction In tho
stock market. me extraordinary activity in
tho bond market has a parallel in the outside
Investment market, where an Unprecedented
and apparently unlimited demand for high
grade securities is reported. This Is. OF course.
arefection OF those conditions in the country's
trade and financial situation which compose
the business history OF the past eighteen
months. II accounts also for the pronounced
pteadiness in the stock market at a period and
in technical circumstances oftentimes asso-
mated with dropping prices.
Speculative interest was very we'll distributed
IN the market, evidences OF renewed interest
appearing in the Granger. Pacific, and other
nhares which OF late have been rather neg
lscted. Sugar Refining was in the lead in re-
Hpeot Of activity. and that stock also scored one
of the most notable Of the days advances.
There was nothing to account for It's special
strength apart from the disclosure OF a still
pxistent unwieldy short account. as was
evidenced in the premium Of Y v cent.
exacted for its use In the loan market.
Brooklyn Rapid Transit was next after
Bugar Refining in order Of strength and
activity, but aside from the we'll maintained
and heavy increases shown in the company's
trnfic receipts there was little bearing upon
the course OF the stock In the market. As has
been the case throughout the week, the lower
priced issues were actively dealt in. Missouri
Paciac. Pacific Mail and Atchison preferred
wore conspicuous features OF this class. The
Sirst named advanced upon the announce
ment OF the extinguishment OF the com
pany's floating debt. the details OF which trans
action will be found In another column.
London was not an important factor in the
general market, but under sales for that ac-
count Louisville and Nashville. Southern Rail
way preferred and Atchison preferred were
relatively heavy. Elsewhere in the market
noteworthy gains were scored In Chicago
Great. Western A. Mobile and Ohio. and Met
ropolitan Street Railway. The reasons for the
special strength OF these stocks have been al
ready set forth in this column. The market
closed irregular. but with an undertone OF
strength.
