BUOYANCY IN THE STOCK MARKET
Vanderbilts Northwestern securi-
ties, fractions, and CoaIers All
Score Good Gains Further
Railway Deals Expected.

NEW YORK. Nov 22.-The Stock Mar
ket opened active and bI.oyant and con-
tfnued strong during the morning hours
Further high records Of prices III the
current upward movement were scored in
may. cases. New York Central and Man
haitian were notably strong and active,
and but little affected by the heavy
profit-taking sales which appeared in both
cases. other conspicuous features Of the
market were Erie, Atchison, st. Paul,
Pennsylvania, and Missouri Pacific
Among the industriaIs and speciaIties
firm features were Sugar, American Lo-
connective. and International Silver Anal
gamated Copper and Peoples Gas barely
held their own
London sent in small and irregular
price changes for American stocks, and
foreign houses were not active in this
market.
Danger of Tight Money Passed.
The chief factor in the buoyancy pre-
yaIiing was the belief that all danger Of
stringeney in the money market had
passed with the falling away of gold
shipments. It was said this morning that
there were not likely TO be any exports
tomorrow. Expectations of further i'm
portant developments in the railway
world were similarly effective, the out
look for Vanderbilt deal being one Of
the chief topics of conversation
During the later morning trading Man
haitian and Metropolitan were again
buoyant az new high prices. The eoalers
also were strong.
