PRICES OF STOCK
STILL. SOARING

NEW YORK. Dec. 4.-The recovery in
prices of stocks today were carried further
with gathering force and animation and
with large responsibility, attributed to
the demand from uncovered shorts, which
carried prices upward.
The speculative community professed the
usual confidence in its foreknowledge of
the contents Of President Taft's message
after il had arrived at the print stage.
The outlines of the coming message, which
were accepted as authentic in brokers Of
fees, had the effect of soothing some of
the apprehensions felt earlier in the week
as to the manner in which topics bearing
on certain interests would be handled. An
other potent factor in quieting apprehen-
sion on this score is the belief that great
mergers Of trust companies are contem-
plated by the purchase of the Guaranty
trust company and the Equitable life as
surance society in the Morgan interest this
week The pursuance of this policy by so
eminent figure in the financial world is
taken to indicate assurance of immunity
from interference and confidence In the
feasibility of financial consultations. The
resumption of aggressive market operations
in United States steel of concentrated
character was ascribed to the general con-
hdence engendered by this feeling. and had
a marked sentimental effect on the whole
market.
Reading furnished an effective leader for
the railroad group and was affected by re-
newed rumors of coming interest in the
dividend disbursement. The same influence
strengthened Rock Island preferred, coupled
with the fact that that socks preferred

be ended shortly. and stocks of railroads
Immediately affected rose vigorously. The
market broadened out materially at the
last and closed buoyant and very active.

CHICAGO. Dec. Although sensational ru-
mors We're circulated the floor of the ex-
change before the opening predicting a general
strike on all railroads the outcome of the
situation in the northwest. the reports were
given no credence in view Of the more optimistic
tenor OF news emanating from the scene Of the
labor troubles. Traders. however. were inclined
to await further developments before opening up
new deals and as result the volume of bust
ness was small The rapid spread OF harvest
operations in Argentina inspired more or less
seliing all day, which resulted in moderate
weakness in all deliveries. Cold weather was
the forecast for the winter wheat belt but
this failed to have any hullish effect owing to
the newly seeded crop being covered with snow
