Statement Expected.

Opinions differ as to the cause, but the
face remains that the buoyancy attained
by the stock market on Thursday con-
tinued until the close yesterday afternoon
Some financial authorities cam that the
rise was due TO mani 3ulatlon 10y protes-
sional traders Others that the general
railroad list advanced as the result OF
heavy buying OF st. Paul stock. Others
believe that the inevitable turn has been
made in the market. and that this is but
the beginning Of a bull movement.
HUDSONS OPINION.
c. I. Hudson & Co., the well known New
York brokers, IN their evening letter to
patrons, stated:
The advance in stocks continued al
most uninterruptedly to the close, which,
consequently. was at the highest prices
of the day. st. Paul remained by all odds
the huoyant feature, but there was re-
markable activity, especially i'll Union
Pacific and Southern Pacific, together
with Uniform strength throughout the
railroad list. Dealings in the aggregate
approximated a million shares
1T is worthy OF note that the Morgan
stocks, including the coaiers and United
States Steel. We're comparatively quiet,
undergoing no marked price changes. St
PaufS advance of more than eight points,
OF course, gave W iittlllti Jus
One was that the Morgan holdings are to
be surrendered in return lor the Union
Pacific holdings OF Northern Pacific but
nothing like confirmation has been OBJ
tainahle concerning this or any OF the
other rllnorS which, therefore, seem to
have been put out for purposes OF manlpu-
lation.
~ good bank statement is expected, be-
cause the preliminary returns show cash
gain of nearly two million dollars. While
decrease in the loan account is believed to
have been forcshadowed.'
The sales yesterday represented the
heaviest days business for many weeks
past Among the conspicuous advances
were the following:

LOCAL OPINION

A prominent Richmond broker yesterday
received the following. query from a New
York trader: DO you think the bull mar
ket has started or is this only a drive at
the shorts.
The following answer was sent: mere
is no particular time for bull markets.
The situation is so healthy it can come at
any time. Everybody has been waiting
for money to get easier, but if after it
comes plentiful the situation is as good
as it is now, then it will be too late to
