ness was done during the first hour
OF trading today in the stock market
chan in the same time for many days
past. Some of the features of the
movement had commenced to arouse
distruts by the end of the first hour
and there WAS relapse into dullness
and uncertain fluctuations. Many
stocks were active during the first
hour that hevc been unresponsive 10
the recent attempts To revive specu-
latiye interest and the whole market
took on an appearance of breadth
and volume that has been lacking re-
Gently. This served as an answer
10 criticisms of yesterdays dealing
that were practically confined to I'm
ion Pacific But the facts came out
in a short time that this diversion
of speculative activity was being
taken advantage of to market hold
ings of Union Pacific. This checked
the upward movement and induced
the subsequent reaction, thus serv-
ing to reaffirm the dominance of I'm
ion Pacific in the present market.
