The common led the preferred both in the volume of the dealings and in the amount of gain. The other iron and steel stocks were affected in sympathy. Otside of these there were a bewilder- ing array of all kinds of industrial stocks. some selling at nominal figures, and some of them seldom making their appearance in the record of transac-
 
 for the sudden stir, but the movement spread naturally when fairly started, based on the widely held view that the market prices of securities are capahlA Of adjustment throughout to an ad- Vance in high grade securities. The comparative firmness of the Southern railroad group was due to the atten- ton given to an estimate of a bumper cotton crop. The money market con tinued very tranquil, otwithstanding the heavy loss in cash by reason of the gold exports. Tn addition to the l two millions in gold which will go to Cuba tomorrow, it is expected that 1 s3, ,000,000 more will go to Cuba next week, and the recovery in exchange [ to-day brought conditions nearer to the resumption of the engagements for Europe. When 1t was seen that the laate money market was not going to be affected by these conditions prices stiffened, but profit taking on the days rise made the closing rather easy with only the U. s. Steel stocks at the best prices
