FIN AHCIAL.

In a morning OF feverish activity the
stock market has advanced 10 still higher
levels The holiday II had yesterday
affected IL but little. and II lost no time
when the whistle blew for work today in
making amends for being idle since Tues
day.
With Union Pacific and Tennessee Coal
and Iron in the lead the whole bunch OF
aristocratlc securities entered upon a so
as YOU please hustle for high prices. and
by noon time several had shown remark
able agility and telling speed.
IL was all one way in the stock market;
stocks that moved at all advanced. II
seemed 10 be a dangerous market for ad-
vance was rapid and Irregular. such ad-
vance as TO experienced minds prompted
great caution. While no one asserts "a be-
lief that the bottom will drop out OF the
market. still there are opinions galore TO
the effect that enough is sufficient and
too much is bad.
-- There are trai<ed and skilful minds at
work on the study OF this splendid condi-
ton OF prosperity and their findings are
we'll worth repeating. 1p brief, they
say that the present market is an ex-
cellent one to be out OF. With values
soaring higher and higher each day under
the shrewd manipulation OF old: wise
gamesters IN behooves the observant
ones TO look sharply at the consistency
Of all phases Of so attractive situation.
This morning Union Pacific showed re-
narkable stamina and. being traded In
heavily by bullish interests, IL led the
market a merry chase and the market
followed in lively fashion All along the
list railroad stocks showed H. notable eI
portunties the morning Afforded ln-'
dustrials also were firm and eager 10 be

has the market enjoyed better opportuni-
ties 10 make good and rise. Prices are 50
hieh now, however that a great deal OF
bullish energy must he exerted in keeping
up conditions as they are and small ad-
vsrce holds for more significance than
ordinarily
There was little OF Importance today In

Interesting but not an active factor in the
American situation. Congress remains the
sam. as fer as It's attitude towards rail-
roads and trusts Ia concerned and no.
where IN the country are events transpir-
ing az sufficient magnitude to change the
tone OF the market.
In the cotton market there has today
arpeared an indication OF activity In the
south Post receipts were larger than for
some time The planters are apparently
ready 10 free their holdings. Spot cotton
sold this morning on an Scent basis and
the attitude OF hose having spot cotton
- sell shows that Scents is the price they
have waited for. It's a fair price and
profitable price. The cotton market should
become lively now Socially there Is still
little>~loing.
With the approach OF February's close
there is decided improvement I'm the
business situation here as we'll as else
where. II is merely general stirring up
OF activities that have been dormant
since fall. The winter has done much In
adjusting national conditions so that this
spring awakening may be unhindered
and to a greater prosperity that ever.
