securities. and others were all notably
strong. Federal Steel preferred advanced
a point and a half, and the common went
up from 1878 to 81 1-2. Gas during the
entire morning was neglected, but in the
last hour good buying sent the price up a
point. to l13 IA. Atchison preferred and
common were both bought in large lots,
and although the advance in neither was
large. the close was at the top price of the
day and for this movement. The activity
of the Flower stocks in the latter part of
the day suggested the probability that this
gentleman may have decided to help MIR.
Keene make his bull market. If this
prove to be the case it is prophesied by
many that Atchison preferred and Peo-

tkan any heretofore this week, and more
business was done. though il still has d
rather one-sided appearance. The range
OF prices also was excellent, advances be
ing made nearly everywhere, not 10 mem
tion the great spurts in one or two OF the

suggest continuance of the advance and
greater participation by the public in the

1t was not to be expected that Burling-
ton would advance in the way it did yester-
day without having some effect on the
other grangers. Both Rock Island and ST.
Paul were strong all day, and their ad-
vances were good. though not nearly as
large as that of the leader of the move
ment St. Paul went from l2o Ia to
12S Is. and closed at 12S. Rock Island ad-
yanced to l19 and closed at IFS IS. There
are now twenty-six points between Bur-
lington and Rock Island besides the divi-
dend declared on Burlington yesterday. For
many years they have ranged much nearer
each other. and it is the opinion of many
that Rock Island will soon begin to mar
row the gap.

The days business was again under the
leadership OF tremendous buying of Bur
lington, and it may still be said that the
advance Of this stock was the most impor-
tant item of the market. Other portions
of the list followed Burlington's lead, and
as the day progressed smaller boOms were
started in several stocks. Toward the close
the interest became general, though the
largest activity was still shown by Bur
lington- Mr. Keene and his friends were
credited with the larger part OF the buying
in this stock. and to many the market
looked like "a Keene market" In the last
hour however, Mr.. Flowers stocks and the
Yandervilts also showed activity and ad-

The movement of Burlington during the
week can be regarded as nothing less than
remarkable. The advance has been from
157 5-s to I4i IS in three days, besides a
dividend of ] l2 per cent, making total
OF nearly points. And this was in addi-
tion to an advance Of several points in the
last days of last week. The low point
reached by the stock was 13l and a frac-
tion, which makes the entire advance 13
points and more. Burlington is now 3
points above the high point of last month
in addition TO the dividend. and thus higher
than Il has been before for ten years.
