Under the leadership Of Sugar and other
specialties the market this morning was
more active and At times even bGoyant.
Prices in half dozen securities showed Id
Yauces Of point or more and the entire
list went Up fractiOnally. Soon after the
strong opening the news Of the despatch
from Minister COnger was received, and
this helped the bulls in their efforts ma
terially. The Street very generally seem
ed TO believe that the upward movement
would extend further, perhaps, throughout
tomorrow and until after the opening on
Monday Much must depend on the further
news from China and the developments of
the crops, however. and cautious market
people seem inclined TO wait for the reac-
tons before buying stocks after the recent
advance in prices. As has been stated
heretofore in this column the large inter-
ests all expect the important movement of
the coming month TO be upward. but this
does not preclude the possibility. and even
the probability, Of temporary sharp de-
Clines meanwhile.
