There was strong opening in the mar
ket yesterday morning. with prices APP
probably higher than they were at the

TO react but few specialties broke
away, making good gains. so that the

unfair to say that 1t was either strong or
weak as q whole. In "A general way the
industrials were the strong features and
the buying of the high priced railway
stocks was not as good as the selling.
Sugar. Colorado Fuel and Iron, 'itnnts
see Coal and Iron. the gas stocks, the
coppers, and the two Leather securities
ali made handsome gains and sold at new
high prices for the mo cement. The
grangers, the Pacifics, the anthracite
coalers. the Goulds, and the Southern Sc
curities generally were reactionary, on
the other hand, losing ali the opening
gains before the close, which was for
the most part near the bottom level for
the day. ~
The times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1897-1901, 1901-04-16

The comment made on this condition of
things by me st careful market people was
that q switch from the railways to the
industrials does not argue well for the
continued strength of the market. Ii is,
of course. the fact that the industrials
have not had their proportionate share
of the advance curing the past six
months, and it might be argued that the
advance here is only natural and healthy.
but the fact remains that as a general
rule the abandonment of the railway Sc
curities for the industrials in any boom
means that the market is getting into less
important and lesa strong hands. This,
in fact, is exactly what is occurring as
far as can be Judged. AS has been said
heretofore in this column there are a
number of securities that are likely to
sell higher in the near future. The re-
mainder of the list. careful people say,
looks TO be too high. They advise taking
profit wherever possible. The switching
into the industrial group is not the only
indication of this.
