& MONTANA.
-f

New York, Dec. 3.-Today's stock
market was strong, but the strength
was uneven, and few OF the most
prominent stocks closed the day at
fractional declines from last night. The
strength in the market grew out Of
conditions in the cotton, coal. copper
and iron and steel trade. Even i'm the
groups affected by these trades there
was some profit-taking as in Louis
Vile & Nashville. which closed lower
after cratic fluctuations. United
States Steel touched another high rec
ord for the year, on account of rumors
of still further advances in prices OF
steel products and the maintenance Of
present prices for steel rails. The large
dividend declaration on Boston & Mon
tana, n subsidiary stock, was the mo-
tive for the buying of Amalgamated
Copper. Outside of these quarters of
the market and. of a list Of miscella-
neous specialties. the movement was
irregular. western grain carriers spe-
ciaily showing a tagging tendency. The
bank statement carried over averages
from last weeks gold shipments to
Cuba, so that the cash decrease ex-
ceeded the estimates, but the $1,000 goo
cash decrease modified the effect so as

plus reserve. In view of the week s
large operations involving heavy cap
ital outlay it is evident that the trust

vests and the expanding demand for
nearly all classes Of merchandise form
the broad underlying basis OF the mar
