Copyright, 1912, by New York Even
ina Post Col

ing Post Coz
NEW YORK, March 30-The week
ended on all the great markets with
little show OF enthusiasm, except for
the late advance here, which was con
fined chiefly to one or two speculative
shares. At London the tone was firm
but no large volume of business was
done, as the boat races seemed to
offer the greater attraction.
There was however, some weak
ness in the mining stocks, but this did
not lead to depression elsewhere. So
far as the market here was concerned
the price movements were irregular
with unimportant fluctuations until
the last hour when the whole list
showed strength. This was led by
the familiar buying OF Reading, which
advanced sharply to new high price
level for the year.
On this movement trading broad
ened somewhat and the market be-
came more active toward the close. 1t
was significant that the coal shares
were strongest on the market in the
late advance.
