THE DAYS OPERATIONS IN STOCKS.

The stock market which on Saturday showed
symptoms Of stirring from its long lethargy,
yesterday developed real activity and strength,
the tendency being most marked in the last
hour, and closed with substantial net gains for
the day throughout the list and with last prices

most important single influence in improving
sentiment was the demonstrated and complete
success Of the Pennsylvania new stock issue,
the entire Offering having been taken by the
shareholders and 30 per cent of il having been
paid for in full. This means that the S4oeeo-

80 per cent of each subscription was required
at this time Another factor making for market
strength was the appearance of investment
demand in anticipation Of the July interest and
dividend disbursements. which il is expected
will be greater than ever before at this season
Other favorable considerations were the check
