New York, Jan. 4.-Stocks were reac-
tonary in the forenoon, but forged
strongly upward in the afternoon, led by
ihigh-,pEriced sis5cialties, including BROCK
lyn Transit, Sugar and Tobacco. The
opening was irregular, with a tendency
both here and in London to take profits,
ana prices reacted moderately after the
initial trading. Professional traders
sought diligently to reach sop loss orders.
Many shares eased off considerably, but
a number of stocks showed marked re-
siStance notably Brooklyn Transit, Pull
man and Great Northern preferred st.
Paul maintained d point advance on its
remarkable statement for the fourth
week in December. showing an increase
OF nearly $252.000 in gross earnings. A

and continued until the close. Brooklyn
Transit made a total gain of eight points
on its showing OF an increase of S66i 657
IN It's gross earnings for the year. There
were 1nSlSJent rumOrS OF a pending deal,
which insiders would not discuss. but

OF surface and elevated lines in Brooklyn
might come into the hands of the COM
pany While there We're large gains in

orally moderate. The rise in wheat slim
ulated interest in many of the western
railroad shares The advance of five
points in American Tobacco was unac-
the property. There We're large pur-
chaSes by interests identified with the
company and the movement was thought

by the formation of rival concerns. The
leading stocks were pressed for sale in
the early hours and declined sharply.
These shares failed to respond to the
subsequent general show of strength.
