WALL STREET NOTES
Gould Lines Regarded as
Unsafe for Shorts.
CONFIDENCE IN THE STOCK
shares on Change Show Rnpidity I'm
Rise that Surprises the short In
terests-TechnicHI Position Was
Unsuspected-If Bears Did Not Get
Their Desires They Did Get Deserts.

New York. March 1.-THE rapidit.r of
the rise in stocks to-day testified not only
20 the extent of the short interest, but 20
the depletion of the floating supply Of
stock from which the bears had to draw
their requirements for covering contracts.
The technical position disclosed was a
real surprise. 1t had been supposed quite
generally that the short interest was no
longer large, as the borrowing demand
was much less urgent than at the end Of
last week. but when the market rushed
up on large transactions and the catch
ing OF stop orders, different estimate OF
the extent to which the bears had sold
what they did not own had TO be formed.
Considering that on the preceding day
the bears had tried 10 scare the bulls
with the special message bugaboo, it was
rather curious that they themselves had
been put 10 the rout by a report Of the
alleged attitude Of the Chief Executive
toward an important question.
II the bears did not get their desires
there are a great many holders Of securi-
ties all over the country who think they
got their deserts.
Nowhere was the change in sentiment
wrought by any advance in prices more
notable than in the discussion of the
merits OF the Gould stocks. Where only
pessimism prevailed a week ago. ii vas
argued that Missouri Pacific, Texas Pa
cific. and the Wabash issues had prob
ably more than discounted everything Of
an unfavorable nature that might be ap-
pretended regarding them. and that II
not ripe for a sustained advance. they
might at least be a dangerous short sale
The cause Of the change in sentiment ap-
peared to be squeeze Of shorts in Mis-
souri, Pacific that sent the price OF the
stock up A couple Of points in pretty
short order

MARKET Is STRONG
Day Closes with Advances of
from | to 3 Points.
BULLISH TENDENCY is SEEN
Idea Generally Pervades Wall Street
that Reaction Il at Hand-Actions
Do Not Bear Ont IneIinatiOns of the
Bears-RiSinE Movement Particu-
larry Noticeable in Missouri Pacific.

New York March 11.-During the early
business hours in Wall street to-day. the
idea generally pervaded the financial dis
trlct as it did yesterday. that a reaction
in the stock market was at hand.
This was based, OF course, on the almost
sensational advance in prices in the last
few days. which. under ordinary circum-
stances. would invite alike heavy realiza-
tons Of profits and an increasing amount
Of speculation for the decline.
The bulk OF the trading element along
speculative lines. therefore, continued in
the first hour and a half Of business
their attacks upon the market, which they
carried on so persistently on the preced-
ing day and goodly portion of the COM
paTatively small number or other opera
tors who have recently been venturesome
enough to buy stocks for the rise also
made haste TO seize the profits that were
awaiting them. All this, however, did not
seem TO produce any very decided i'm
preston upon the price of stocks. The
recessions were not more than a point
usually in the principal stocks, and the
short interest in the market in this time
was undoubtedly increased. Then shortly
after midday the whole market again be-
came very strong.
Prices Move Upward.
Large blocks of the Union Pacific and
Reading common shares. or what seemed
20 be such in comparison with the deal
ings of recent weeks. changed hands at
continually higher prices. The Union
Pacific and Great Northern preferred
shares, which have been notably laggard
in the rising movement. were also heavily
bought, and rose very easily. while more
attention than anything else was at
tracted by a decided jump in the quota
tons of Missouri Pacific stocks. the one
security on the list upon which pessi-
mistic sentiment in the last two or three
months has especially centered-
A view commonly expressed was that
there had been. at the low quotations for
Missouri Pacific, an accumulation Of the
stock by interests Identified with the con-
troll Of the property. who had presumably
disposed OF all or the bulk OF their hold
ings at higher prices a long time since.
The United States Steel common and
preferred shares did not move upward
with the same brisk pace followed by the
rest Of the market. provoking a suspicion
that liquidation there was being carried
on.
Once started however, the general mar
ket became fairly buoyant. and net ad-
vances of from one to three and a half
points were established up 20 the last half
hour of the stOCk-eXchange session in
the more prominent shares.
The market weakened toward the close,
but with final quotations. however. still
showing large gains.
