AA-A0 Was 6AOLuSE wiz Inc
Stock Market this morning, with prices
booming during the entire session under
the influence of entirely unprecedented
public and clique buying Of stocks snd
covering OF shorts. The week ended with
gains OF from TO 10 or more points in
all the active securities and with hardly
dull spot on the list, and this despite
the fact that the early days Of the week
witnessed a healthy decline Of or
points. The upward movement so far has
extended IN all from 15 to so points. The
average level of the railway securities is
higher than at any time before in many
years, higher than it was in the winter
OF 1e9S-1SS9. Many securities are daily
making new high-priee records. The pres
ent is g bull movement such as comes Only
once in years.
The question that is agitating the minds
Of the people" at present is, OF course,
whether top prices have been reached al
ready or viii be far higher than the pres
ent level. The advice OF conservatives is
that some profits should be taken and lines
Of stocks reduced rather than increased aft
er such a rapid advance as that of the past
three days but that excepting for tempo
TRry recessions like that Of Monday the
price level seems likely to advance many
points during the coming three or four
months. Purchases should be made on the
reactions. These people base their opin-
ion on the excellent condition prevailing
everywhere for railway and industrial cor
porations, and more than this on the conf
denee OF the public that such conditions
exist. It is said by old market people that
the public never in the history of the
Stock Market has been SO eager to buy.
The bank statement was excellent in
every particular. and it had the effect of
entirely reassuring the people that have
been fearing tight money and a depleted
bank reserve II was followed by the
most buoyant fifteen minutes of the day
At tbs close. The figures were as follows.
Reserves increased S3,063, 725, loans in
creased g. S9, 900, IegaIs increased 81
612,50O specie Increased 81 $50. 500, de-
posts increased S8,5T5,300. circulation de-
creased S2S, POO II win be seen that the
increase in cash was more than $5,000,-
eco. The increase in loans was a modest
one On account Of the fact that under the
system of averages used in making up the
statement the early part OF the week with
its Liquidation had more influence on the
figures than the last three days with
their boom.
Despite the general buoyancy of the
market half a dozen securities were Sc
curely the leaders. Atchison preferred
Pennsylvania, Union Pacific and Northern
Pacific were among these. Atchison pre-
ferred, went up to IS IL at the opening
and although it declined somewhat later
IN the session closed near the top with
big net gain. This stock is apparently
the favOrite with the public and the rea-
son for this is evident. This company has
had remarkable history during the past
two years, a record of increasing pros
perity such probably no other railway
in the country can show And everything

There is no doubt in our mind that IL
the north had not interfercd. il Virginia
had been left free to settle this question
for herself. by degrees all the slaves
would have been emancipated under wise
and conservative provisions, the tie Of
affection that bound master and slave to-
gether would have been abiding, and the
evils Of reconstruction had never been.
Slavery was imposed upon Virginia by
England. kept upon her by the alliance
of New England slave traders with south
ern planters. Virginia made repeated at
tempts TO stop the slave trade md even
to abolish slavery as an institution. and
we give it as our deliberate opinion that
even If there had been no war there
would have been no slaves today in the
state Of Virginia. .-Richmond Times.
