GROWING ENCOURAGEMENT.
Factor Was Strong Showing of Banks
 in Retnrns Made.

New York, Dec. 5.-Transactions op. ened at the stock exchange to-day in face of the rather formidable intelli- gence of the closing of the leading bank of Kansas City. The effect of this news on stocks did not much out last the first hours operations The manner in which the market accepted the news made fresh impression on the bear party of its resisting power and of the definite passing of the ex- treme prostration of demand for se- curities. The action of the bond mar ket for over a week past has given clear warning of this change in the in. ventrnent situation. Mortgage securi- ties have been freely absorbed. It is on this fundamental basis that f1nan- cial opinion has been agreed in looking for the first reliable index of the turn in the situation for the better With
 the freer movement of credits result
 ing from the mending of the banking
 situation a speculative party has found means to take advantage of the im- proving conditions by large operations In the market They have had the ad-
 vantage of large uncovered short in- terest which was encouraged to per-
 sist in it's position in face of a con- siderable movement against them by the recollection of the many renewals
 of urgent liquidation which have been
 brought out by previous abortitve ral- lies in the market. The effective sup port. enjoyed by the market to-day in face of the Kansas City news drove a ! large element of this persistent short ! interest to cover and aided materially ! in raising the level of prices. The
 market continued to give every evil dence of the large professional share in l the operations and or the manipulative 1 tactics employed in the leadership. The | impression was strong Tn the neighbor-
 hood of the stock exchange, that the Leadership was conducted with the countenance, if not under the direct in citement of some of the most infiuen- I tional banking and financial interests l in New York, in the way that the management of the market for the I United States steel stocks was en- trusted at the time of their Notation.
 The reports from various important
 banking centers in the country to the Associated Press, indicating the strong showing of the banks in the returns to
 the comptroller, was a factor in the
 growing encouragement reflected ir the
 days movement. The professionalism of the market was indicated by the impatience to realize profits on the
 days advance, which caused the relin-
 punishment of much of the days gains
 in the course of the last hours trading. l Bonds were irregular. Total sales
