WALL STREET MORE HOPEFUL
AND PRICES ARE BETTER.
DULLNESS DEVELOPS ON
LATE REACTIONS
Sense of Security Is Increased by
Favorable Reports on Grow
inglCrops.

New York. Aug. 12.-Wall streets more
hopeful view Of the outlook was reflected
in the comprehensive upward movement OF
prices with which the days operations be-
gan. The advance became SO rapid as to
overrun the newly awakened demand and
attract some selling to, take profits. which
caused some hesitation. A feature Of the
market was the dizziness which developed on
reactions. due to the Withholding Of stocks
from the market except at advancing
prices. The speculative element. made up
of professional traders. played an import
ant part in the movement and undoubtedly
buying to cover short contracts was on
large scale. Yesterdays market already
liquidation having failed to keep pace with
the bear sailing 10 anticipate 1t. The fact
was shown in to-day's market that there
are buyers who will come in on an advance
who would refrain from buying at the
lower level.
SELLING DISAPPEARS.
There is large volume of selling which
disappears from the market also when
prices turn upwards. OF course. this is
especially true OF forced sellers. b. reason
of margins wiped out and shrinkage Of
collateral. But it is also true that holders
when the price is declining who will hold
when prices begin to advance. The SELL
ing of collateral. out OF loans and the con-
traction of credits seemed to have disap-
peared entirely to-day. Aside from this con-
sideration there was no marked cnange IN
conditions to account Tor the larger demand
for securities. Rates for time money con-
tinue very firm.
The heaviness of foreign exchange caused
active discussion of possible early gold eX-
ports. London is buying quite freely of
stocks. The increasing sense of security in
the safety of the ripening crops is encour-
agement to offer exchange bills in the mar
ket for long periods. to be covered at ma
turity. when the export of the new crop is
in progress. The Weather Bureaus weekly
summary on corn yesterday added to the
encouragement caused by the monthly re-
port published the day before.
BRIGHTER SENTIMENT.
In the generally brighter sentiment OF the
day hopes were expressed o. good bank
statement, although there was no very OBJ
vious foundation for this in any known
developments. Late in the day the market
came under the influence OF a food of ru-
mors regarding the disposition of the Sea-
board Air Line. 1t was significant of the
change in stock-market sentiment that a
proposition which promised a large addi-
ton to an already large volume of securi-
ties tailed to cause the chill of apprehen-
sion which the market has shown at all
recent suggestion Of the creation of the new
securities. The leadership assured by Rock
Island in the late strong upward move
ment. followed the announcement Just be-
fore the close of share in Seaboard Air
Line by Rock Islands interests The DAVIS
gains reached l to 3 for the principal ac-
tive stocks. and more than that for Special
ties. The market closed strong and active
strong. Total sales, par value. S2sUu6
