Price of Oil Trust Stocks Making
Nonbusted Corporations
EnVious.
By THOMAS c. sHOTwELL.

New York, March lin a market that
was almost buoyant stocks advanced to-
day from the opening to the close, and
ended with material net gains. Leaders
were Erie, Steel, Union Pacific, and
Amalgamated Copper Sufficient reason
seemed to be available for the move
ments. But overshadowing all was
Standard on. which moved to a new
high record price at $50. All the other
trusts are getting Jealous, and rumor
persists that the steel trust insiders arc
demanding that the government bust"
that trust at once so they, too. can share
in the rich spoils Of the popular war on
capital
Some even go so far as to say that
the steel trust is backing the Roosevelt
movement TO frighten Taft into a speedy
settlement Of the trusts suit Such a
thing would be absurd, for IL there were
the slightest evidence of such a thing
Taft would be the first one to insist that
there be no settlement. The best in
formed people believe the Steel suit will
be settled, but only because that would
be the honest, fair, and dignified way of
ending an impossible condition.
Erie's rise was based on mystery. The
only fact that one can set down positive
ly is that somebody has been buying the
shares freely for months, and that the
movement has proceeded so far as to
make it necessary to make an announce
ment 10 Justify the movement or aban-
don it. The stock acts as though its
movement would be justified with some
announcement soon. 1t was rumored to-
day that a block Of about 10000 shares
had changed hands among the Morgan
group.
Some of the strength of Steel was due
to a report that the untitled orders had
increased during February.
Return OF borrowed stock in large
quantities was noted. This may be due
TO the fact that large investors who sold
against real holdings have repurchased
the shares. 1t is not an unhealthy sign.
and does not necessarily mean that the
market is weakened. One very import
ant operator will leave the street to-
morrow for a vacation. and it can quick |
ly be seen whether his trading has been |
responsible for the activity Of the list |

Meantime the weather map, while somewhat bet

previous, still unsettled with a government
forecast which included further yisations Of rain
and for tonight and tomorrow. This added
the troubles Of the extended short interests and
to the buying power forced the market gradually
higher during the forenoon.
1t is very doubtful. however, the cotton world
is entirely Influenced BY new crop conditions The
demand for spot cotton for the first six months OF
the current cotton year exceeds all previous records
markets. Notwithstanding the fluctuations in the
worlds contract markets and some very dsconcert-
ing influences, sales at II cents per pound for mid

In considerable volume. The export movement to
