MARKET
REPORTS.

The opening tone OF the New York
stock market today was stronger In
spite or sharp reactions in one or two Of
the high priced stocks which made wide
gains yesterday.
The failure of the Bank OF England TO
advance it's discount rate. as was expect
ed, was a favorable influence.
Delaware and Hudson rose lh; Cana
dian Pacafc IA; New York Central lls;
ST. Paul, Tennessee Coal, and Brooklyn
Transit a point. Minneapolis.
Stocks were bought in confident man
ner with the demand embracing a wide
selection. Initial gains were largely ex-
tended in many cases but there were
number OF stocks that gave little evil
dence of strength.
The higher prices of the first hour were
shaded when professionals took profits,
but the undertone held good.
Louisville and Nashville and Atlantic
Coast Line forged upward 2 points at II
o'clock.
