gress In New York CITY that are Of
much interest TO oil men generally and
To manufacturers, and II Is stated that

Bile the relative fuel properties Of coal

The extreme briefness Of this morn

not the only unusual feature that oc-
CURED. The trading was active ana
at the same figures that maintained
yesterday or In excess Of them That
the shorts are covering on certain
stocks Is very evident and 1t Is a pre-
vailing impression that the higher
prices have come to stay In fact, II IS
stated by prominent brokers that there
"a already considerable embarrassment
among some others who We're caugh1
suddenly with long accounts on the
bear side when certain stocks were
boosted yesterday This fact has, TO q
certain extent checked the downward
movement Of prices and II Is Thought
that with the good reports from certain
mines whose stocks have been manlpu-
lated way below their proper value,
combined with the fact that outside
mining men have not lost the opportun-
ity to buy in for investment purposes,
stocks win rapidly shoot upwards This
opinion Is prevailing to such an ex'
tent that there Is a lull in the trading,
some brokers not knowing what to do
there being q possibility that the shorts
win be squeezed from now on.
