NEW YORK, Aug. 2S.-Thc buying
of stocks which advanced today came
very largely from professional opera
tors left short by preceding opera
tons during the period of declining
prices which has endured for several
week past. The advance was helped
on by another element amongst the
professionals which sought n profit
out OF the necessities OF their fellow
traders who were short the market
was in that sense narrow and pro
fessional. and it was not commonly
held opinion that there was any large
amount of buying of stocks by large
investors or IL spectators of the
class which makes the tone of the
market Nevertheless the movement
was regarded as strong evidence of
hcttcrmcnt i'm financial sentiment.
The bcttermcnt In sentiment Is still
