o'clock the buying became very heavy in
all quarters and a number of the popular
stocks were advanced. notably Amalga-
mated Copper, United States Steel prefer
red, Metropolitan Street Railway, Penn
sylvania, Union Pacific, Canadian Pacific,
Southern Pacific and Atchison rose to IA
points, General Electric Westinghouse 5A
and Pump preferred points. American
Express declined 3A points. Realizing
again met the advance and caused prices
to WaVer
The pronounced heaviness in Brooklyn
Transit gradually affected the entire mar
ket and prices yielded Brooklyn Rapid
Transit sold under AZ and the entire ae-
tive list receded about n point. Later the
market showed some disposition to rally
fectual Prices recovered slightly, but met
such enormous selling orders that the
market fell precipitately. United States
Steel preferred and Amalgamated Copper
were the chief points of attack and their
set back of IA points and 21s points re-
spectively was supplemented by losses OF
a point or more in the number of other
leaders
The market rallied with some vigor be-
fore the hour expired, but became duh.
The rise was extended into the second
hour when prices succumbed to realizing.
Amalgamated Copper lost its gain, Brook
Ign Rapid Transit fell below last night
and Smelling, Sugar and Metropolitan
newed buying met the decline and prices
rallied again to the best. Colorado Fuel
recovered it's loss and International Pow
er rose. Heavy additional gold imports
helped the rise
Bonds were irregular at noon.
