NEW YORK. March 22-Fore eu bank
iue houses bought upward Of 10000 shares
Of stocks in this market today. and the
purchases on this account were the chief
feature Of the dealings While they were
in progress the railway list advanced with
noteworthy rapidity, and the dealings were
in unusually large volume. Londons at
titude in this market was due to the graf
iiicauon felt there by the enactment Of
the new financial law. and also to the prev
alent belief in an early conclusion Of hes
Utilities in South Africa. The foreign pur-
chases were well distributed throughout
the internationally listed group. and those
stocks were easily the leaders Of the mar
ket The advances in Atchison shares in
Northern and Union Pacific stocks, Louis
vile and Nashville, Norfolk and western
common. and elsewhere. attained substsn-
tial proportions. After the conclus on Of
he buying for foreign account as was 10
he expected there were more OF less pro-
bounced reactions, but the railway list
maintained throughout the day an exceed
iugly strong uudertOne.
Local speculative sentiment appeared TO
be virtually revolutiOniZCd. Attention re-
verted not only to the probable operations
OF the new financial law. but even such
matters as the remarkable prosperity or
the railroads and the chances for increas ed
dividends on their stocks again came in for
discussion. Aside from the stocks alrt ady
cited the granger shares were notably
strong. and there were substantial ad-
vanCes in Pennsylvania. Chesapeake and
Ohio. and the Wheeling and Lake Erie
issues, IN which the strength shown re-
fected favorable views as to the years
agricultural prospects. and profitable con-
ditions in the coal trade.
The movements in the industrial quarter
and in the local traction group were quite
irregular: all Of the industrials based upon
the steel industry were heavy. probably be
cause OF the beginning of the machinists
strike at Cleveland and on apprehensions
that the labor difficulties would spread fur
Their. Still the dealings IN this quarter OF
the market were not particularly extern
sive and during the forenoon they eyer-
cised little influence upon the remainder
Of the market. The course Of the local
traction shares was not remarkable. In
view Of their recent rise. and the fact that
the new assessment under the franchise
law was expected to be announced within
week or ten days. Third Avenue retained
its conspicuous position in this group. VIII

stock.
Aside from the London buying and the
noted alteration in speculative sentiment.
there was little that was striking in the
situation. though today's dealings aggre-
gated a larger total than for a long time
The money market was easy, notwithstand-
ing the fairly large loss TO the banks in
the weeks operations with the Sub-Treas-
ury and the increased requirements Of com

and prices in the railway list advancing
steadily nearly an day. This week has
seen an entire change In the complexion
o. the market. Not only have prices ad-
vanced rapidly. but there has been a much
broader speculation. The clique began the
movement but they were helped mate

Third Avenue and Metropolitan which
acted as tonic 20 the entire list The
shorts became frightened in other securi-
ties after Third Avenue had whipsawed
them and have been buy.-- heavily an the
