The steel securities had a good advance
under the lead of Tennessee Coal and Iron.
which opened at q Ia and went 10 20.
Wire common went up more than . points,
to 46 rs. and closed near the top. Federal
Steel common advanced 10 30 rs and clos
ed at so 1-2. The statement OF President
Baxter, of the Tennessee Company, that il
has been receiving holdover, after election
orders in big volume at higher prices has
given holders of this stock renewed con-
idence. Federal Steel common is being
bought heavily by Western interests, and
it was the tip yesterday that it will be
advanced rapidly if the bull market con-

The bank statement today should be a
good one. 1t is said by the financial au-
thorities that the banks have gained at
least a,o00,0 600 in cash. The loan account
is in doubt, but as the early part of the
week was period of liquidation it would
seem probable that the loans will not be
increased much if any. Unless there is
manipulation money should be easy to-
day and early next week. The money out
look for the winter is excellent The Oc-
tober foreign trade statement shows the
largest balance in favor of this country
ever recorded by many millions. Despite
all the money lent in Europe by American
capitalists. the tide of gold in this direc-

teresting TO note that of the British bonds
bought recently by this country 1t has

Stocks should be bought, some of the
heading brokers say. but buying should not
be pyramided. Margins should be in
creased rather than diminished as the
boom continues. Profits should be taken
often. Nine people out of ten who lose
money in the market do so by pyramiding
instead of taking profits. The man who
begins making money with 100 shares OF
stock on l0-point margin usually ends
by losing $4,000 in two days as points

up 10 to 20 points and result in a slump
that might last month or more. II will
soon be time for the big interests in Wall
Street, who step in in times of panics
and support the market, TO consider the
question of curbing it. bull movement
when it becomes too wild is quite as dan
gerous as panic. The outlook is for n
continuance of the boom today and for a
hne opening Monday. 1t is even probable
that the upward movement will last with
little hesitation during the greater part
of next week. This will be the ease un-
less the advance becomes so fierce that
the banks and other leaders decide TO
check II by advancing the money rate.
