Notable strength was shown by the hard coalers, seemingly corroborating
 the rumors of plans to give stockhold-
 CTS some sort of distribution in connec-
 tion with a scheme to segregate the
 roads from the coal properties, which
 have been current for several days past.
 Naturally the Hartman stocks were the leaders of the market. The news
 from Washington was certainly calcu- lated to disturb the confidence of the
 bears, who expected q violent attack on Hartman from that quarter. Sentiment in commission houses is
 more cheerful than 1t was week ago,
 and many brokers are placing them
 selves on record as bullish over the
 outlook for better prices in the near
 future. It is asserted that the remark
 ably favorable railroad earnings now coming to hand will serve to restore confidence, while the business. outlook also is discouraging to the bears.
 It cannot be denied that stocks are selling at attractive figures, both for speculative and investment purchases.
 In the last week the Standard Oil and Morgan interests have bought in the open market 175,OOO shares of the stock of the Union Pacific Railroad company, and they have in the market an order for 100000 shares more. This buying, 1t is stated, is not for opposition work, but as the result of an under standing reached by the Morgan Hill interests and the Standard Oil-Harri- man influence by which greater har- mony will be established in the rail- road situation in the northwest.
 The gains Saturday were most pro- nounced in Amalgamated Copper American Shelters, Brooklyn Rapid Transit, St. Paul, the Hill and Harri- man issues, Reading and Delaware and Hudson. The last named stock enioy- ed a net gain of 21-2 points, making NS~ NAtS AeNph SNp ucieS d ubL gam or more than points. It is generally be- lieved this stock will be advanced to a much higher level, and 1t is quite evil dent that the speculative element which recently put out unfavorable reports regarding the property has been unable to shake investors confidence in if Delaware and Hudson has tremendous assets that would prove valuable either to the New York Central or the New Haven, but the control of the property could not be secured at the current market value of the stock, and 1t is understood that when the company eventually passes to the hands of the New York Central the stockholders of the Delaware and Hudson will receive IS much, if not more, on their holdings IS they are getting at present.
 Some of the market opinions in Wall street are as follows:
 Henry Clews ,& Co.,: "The immediate .uture of the market is somewhat brighter. The present low level of val les gives the market raalying power which is noticeable as soon as unfav- 'rable news ceases. We have had such i long run of the latter that values are |

From the technical standpoint the market is undoubtedly improved by the fact that stocks in large volume have recently fallen into the hands of excep- tionally strong financial interests.

Monday Night. The Musical Comedy Success, "COming Thro' The Rye.n

One of the distinctly attractive events of the amusement season in this city will occur at The Grand Monday night when the famous "song play success, Coming Thro' the Rye" will be presented. This exceedingly de- lightful performance is thoroughly well known here, and to those who may have missed witnessing 1t last season the assurance is given that 1t is decidedly well worth their atten- dance. Nothing that has been present. ed on the local stage has given greater satisfaction. The comedy of the piece evokes hearty and prolonged laughter, the music is delightfully."- melodious and 'catchy," the presenting company, headed by the immensely clever come dian, Frank Labor. Is far above the average in capability, and in strength of numbers. and the scenic and cos tune features of the production have not been excelled in any presentation of musical comedy that has been wit messed here. From all points of view this will be one of the bright spots of the season in this city. The seat sale opens this morning. adv.

THE GRAND, Matine Today, 2 O'Clock And Tonight, SgnaA Afawsltm HnmND
NRedforfl,n Hnn

What Is possibly the most emphatic and spontaneous dramatic success of the year is the new Carter drama, "Bedford's Hope" which comes to The Grand matinee today, 3 o'clock, and tonight
 The story is truly American and every character is of the kind found in the mountains of Montana where "Old Pard Mine" exists near Plain View Gulch. The dialogue Is of the breezy, unconventional sort. The mounting of this play is decidedly ex- ceptional. The introduction of the massive panoramic scene between a practical automobile and a train of cars, is the big sensation and 1t has everything in the line of stage real ism yet invented completely eclipsed.
 Seats now on sale for both perform ancs.
