There were tips early in the week that a
tumble was to take place in the stock. APP
parently they were put out by the shorts
in the hope that covering would be ia
ciltated. 1t is said that Morgan and VAN
derbilt interests have been largely re-
sponsible for the buying of the stock, both
in this country and on the other side,
where it has been absorbed in good volume
The prospects OF the company are excel
lent, and its earnings magnificent, but even
these seem hardly to warrant the present
price of the common stock in view of the
similarly excellent showing made by other
companies whose securities are selling on
a much lower level. The Baltimore and
Ohio pool, however, Is a strong one, and
1t is always unsafe to predict that it will
! not advance the stock further.
Pennsylvania and New York Central
have also been strong on pool buying and
inside support. aided by some commission
buying as we'll. The magnificent statement
of the Pennsylvania Company materially
helped TO make the stock popular. In view
of this statement and of the uniformly
good showing made by the company under
Its present management, the street is not
inclined to pay much attention to the sug-
sestion of the ever-present pessimists that
the expansion policy of the company will
lead to its ruin.
The traction securities have shown an
advancing tendency, but they have been
dull for the most part and have not kept
pace with the remainder of the market. 1t
is limited in good quarters that they will
be taken up this week, and probably to-
morrow. The statement of the Metropolitan
Company for May. the figures of which are
given above is an excellent one. making
certain a report for the year better than
any ever before made. The traction securi-
ties generally are also likely to be affected
!avorably by the increase OF their business
during the summer months.
AS has been pointed out in this column
frequently of late, the international Sc
curi,ies generally are likely to continue
important features of the market, owing to
London buying, which is certain to be
large when the war is over in South Africa.
The Pacifics the grangers. and the coalers
are all favorites. Atchison preferred will
probably sell at so this summer il 1t is put
on per cent dividend basis. Both North
ern and Union Pacific should have good
advances. St. Paul is a favorite. The coal
ers have advanced very little compared
with their present and prospective pros
