 SHOW AN ADVANCE
The Upward Movement of l Stocks Resumed in En-
 ergetic Fashion

New York, November 23.-The upward movement of stocks was resumed in energetic fashion today after a period of quiet. During the fore part of the day the list was lfeless and dull, with an inclination toward heaviness although the level of prices changed but little. In the afternoon for no obvious reason the tide turned. A broad and effective bull movement invigorated the. market. When the day was ended prominent railroad is- sues showed an advance of 1 to points. with a sprinkling of larger advances else where in the list running up to 6 points.
 Union Pacific was brought to the front by the bulls to lead their movement. In the latter part of the day this stock was bought in large amounts and was forced above IFS, an advance of more than 3 points.
 It was regarded as probable that Union Pacific's rise was the result of another bull demonstration, similar to the success ful movements recently in the colliers, coppers and the southern group.
 The movement among the southern rail- road stocks which for several days has been unusually active was continued. Louisville and Nashville was the most conspicuous by reason of reports of an increase in the stock, and rose more than { points. Atlantic Coast Line continueo it's advance, gaining nearly 3 points and Southern Railway preferred and Illinois Central developed strength. Interest has been attracted to the Southern stocks on account of the large earnings of these lines, the degree of prosperity which the south has enjoyed and recent increases of dividends by several of these roads.
 The speculative movement in the cop per shares weakened. United States Steel participated moderately in the upward movement and was not affected by an- nouncement that some further reductions had been made in prices of finished steel products New business in steel and iron was said to have increased further. In view of better buying of heavy steel pro- ducts by the railroads, 1t is expressed that United States Steel reports of un- filled orders for the current month will reveal a considerable increase.
 The export movement of gold was con tinued today, with small shipments to Canada and South America. The total shipments to Canada within the last two weeks now aggregate s1O,400,0O and to South America about s2,00O.000. Notwith- standing this movement the loss by the banks of more than $7,OO0,OO0 to the sup- treasury so far this week, and the fact that within less than a week preparations must be made for December first divi- dends disbursement amounting to $6o0,0 ,000,- GOO, the money. market shows important changes from the easy conditions which have prevailed for some time.
 The bond market was firm with an &C., tive inquiry for Atlantic Coast Line and Union Pacific issues. Total sales par value s3,963, ,O0O Limited States bonds un- changed on call.

ANOTHER EFFORT
 TO FREE MORSE

Morse, former New York banker, from the Atlanta penitentiary was forecasted here today by a conference between At torney General Wickersham and Morses counsel, F. H. Dougherty and T. B. Eel der.

He will not be eligible for parole until 1915.
