NEW YORK STOCKS AND BONDS
Market Gets Over It's Fright Caused
by Harriman's Condition.
UNION PACIFIC LEADS ADVANCE
Entire List Rises and Another Rally
Comes at Close on Appearance
of Statement Dictated by
Mr.. Hartman.

NEW YORK, Aug, SO.-The clearing up
OF the atmosphere Of gloomy apprehension
regarding the condition OF p. II. harri,
man was manifest in financial circles well
In advance OF the opening Of the stock
market today. In fact the fright Which
seized the stock market community on
Saturday might have been dissipated pc
fore the market closed had the session
extended to the afternoon hour usual on
week days. AS It was. the afternoon
period on Saturday and the sunday inter-
val saw a steady growth Of coincidence
that the danger of Mr.. Harriman's condi-
tlon had been exaggerated.
Of the family OF the financier In CONTRAST
with the mystery which had been wrapped
about the subject since the return from
Europe and the disappearance from pup
lie view, took the ground from under the
feet OF the alarmists and rumor mongers;
The consequence to the yer-extendsd
short interest was rather serious as the
first prices quoted at the stock exchange
this morning showed an n~stantaneous
cancellation OF a great part OF the heavy
losses suffered in the sharp decline or
Saturday. The shorts themselves contri-
buted to this, showing by their scramble
to obtain stocks, warned by the tenor or
the new from Arden, and the preliminary
advances established in the London mar
ket before trading had been esumed IN
New York.

The sale Of the first 1900 shares of Union
Pacific were at S2OOa2.00k. Union Paci-
fic was a dominant influence on the mar
ket throughout the day. Union Pacific
touched S2.02A and closed only sc below
that. The sustained strength OF United
States steel completed the reinsurance OF
speculative sentiment. The fresh strength
shown by steel and its late advance to
within a point Of the top price Of record
quoted this apprehension and left me adI
vancing tendency without a single material
obstacle. There was no new feature In the
news to explain the recovery in prices
aside from the changed view OF p. Fl.
Harriman's physical condition The sea.
sonable tightening Of the money market
which continues and the unstable level
to which prices had advanced are given
their due influence in the reaction. With
covering Of large lines of shorts. the keen
ness Of the later demand abated consider
ably. The appearance of Mr.. Harriman's
dictated statement was coincident with a
final rally TO a strong uprising.
Convertible and speculative bonds were
