DAYS of the week, but particularly FRI
day when buying orders for stocks and
bonds poured In from all parts OF the
country. ,
II was the broadest market since 1901,
when 200 issues were dealt in In one day
in March. The number today was 49,
making a total of 1.534.OOO shares, the
largest volume of business for the year
In consequence prices rose rapidly, the
expansion being the sharpest that mas
occurred since the wild speculation that
followed the increase in Hartman OWL
dends.
Public Takes a Hand.
The chief factor in the rise was the
increased participation of the public In
the market. The declaration of Taft that
honest business men need not fear to
..go ahead only served to strengthen
the confidence, in the opinion of brokers,
had established.
The view of the situation taken by
the speculative public is shared by BUSH
ness men. as reports to Dun's and Brad
streets show. Dispatches from their
agencies in all parts OF the country
feel that a new era of prosperity has
started.
AS evidence of this it is pointed out

had taken any action in the matter
as he can not and will not do so un
til the case has been presented to him
in the regular form. His official an
nouncement tonight was a denial Of
a rumor that he had declared the
game a tie.
Mccormick was on third base with
two out In the ninth, when Bridwel
singled. The Chicago players con
tended that Bridwell ran toward the
club house instead OF running the
bases before Mccormick scored the
winning run.
Umpire O'Day decided that the run
counted. but his delay in making the
decision caused 10000 people to over
run the field and necessitated police
protection for the umpire.
The trouble arose in the ninth In

were equally positive that he had not.
Chance claimed the run did not count
as there was SO much interference
that his men could not get control OF

saying that he did not see whether
Markle went to second or not. o.

did not count.
