Stocks-There was an outburSt of
large and b%uoyant speculation in the
stock market to-day which lifted prices
during the course of the day from one
to ove 3 points. The buying came from
many divergent elements, but the pat
en fact was that an enormous number
of stocks were bought in an eager and
confident manner on a rapidly rising
scale of prices. Forced covering by a
largely extended short interest had
something to do with the rise. Bull
manipulation by a number of powerful
cliques, some of them newly formed
this morning, aided the advance. The
commission houses reported that they
had large orders to buy from outside
sources. What proportion these various
elements had the aggregate of the days
trading is not possible wen to estimate,
but no merely technical conditions
could have resulted in SO considerable
a rise in prices and in such a widely
distributed strength. The true basis
of the advance evidently was the change
in the money outlook and the promise
held out to the speculative spirit in the
general conditions. There has been
steady growth OF confidence in Wall
street for some time past in the general
outlook for business. 1t has been firm
ly held that as o as election uncer-
tainties were disposed of there would
be a renewal Of this activity up to the
high level of the present prosperous
period. On the other hand. the grow
ing construction Of the money supply

vening period could bs saSely brldxed

would b0 disastrous 70 speculative CONF
mitmentS. The conviction crystallized
to-day that the danger Of the money
stringency was mittgated and the ex-
pected post election demand for secur-
tiles was discounted on a very large
scale. Saturdays bank statement dem
onstrated that a very large contraction
OF loans had been effected without SER
ious harm to the stock market, thus
conserving the surplus reserve. The
gold engaged In Europe last week is
expected to arrive in time to show in
next Saturdays bank statement. The
bank of Frances announcement through
the Associated Press OF a determine
ton to furnish export gold to avert a
money stringency, and the expressed
readiness of the secretary of the treas
ury to act toward Inc same end, had a
notable effect in strengthening conf
dence. The large additional engage
ments of gold announced this morning
promised further help to the local mar
ket although the receipt is deferred for
several weeks. This is due to the fact
that the gold comes from South Afri-
ca. The fact was much dwelt on in
speculative circles as marking the re-
sumption Of the output from the Trans
vaal mines but the exact source of the
supply and the channels through which
il ls to come were kept shrouded in
mystery. The fact that there were no
deposits at the s~ub~treasury to-day for
transfer OF currency to the interior can
hardly be without significance as indi-
eating the future interior demands for
currency, the more SO as New York ex-
change at Chicago rose to Is cents dis
count compared with 80 cents on Sat
urday. The hardening of sterling ex-
change YVES due simply to the purchase
OF bills against the gold imports. The
striking exhibit OF the foreign trade
fer September showed conclusively the
continued command of the international
exchanges. Not only was there an in
crease in exports OF nearly S6 5000, 900
compared with last year, but a decrease
OF over $11 900, 900 in imports went fur
|ther to enhance the trade balance in
our favor, SO that the excess OF ex-
ports over imports for the month has
gone up to over $50, 900. 900. AS the in
crease IN COTTON exports 0ld not SuIlce
to Offset the decrease in the breadstuffs

of the coal strike was also
a factor in the unvarying
