After the first few minutes tFadlhs'
however. the railroad list made fraction
al concessions.
Alter a weak opening the stock mar
ket suddenly became strong, and before
the end of the first hour the prices TOT
many stocks had made material al
vauces. some of them 10 the highest
range reached IN several weeks. Buy
Ing orders carIe in the room IN such
volume that brokers at times climbed
over each other to execute them. The
room traders toward the end of the rlrst
hour sold stocks on an idea that the ad-
vance had gone far enough. Arbitrage
brokers said that London was very
weak
The room was full of bull talk on
Southern Pacific and Union Pacific
General comment was that the buying
all through the list was far better than
the selling.
