Weeks Feeling Optimistic.

Interest in the stock market, which had
long been languishing. was revived this
week by speculative operations on a large
ssale. which centered about the American
Can stocks. Trading in these shares ran
into large figures. and the common and
preferred were advanced approximately
Il and II points. respectively.
The general list at times advanced
sharply. although the weeks movement
as a whole was irregular. and periods of
strength were followed by recessions.
Sentiment was somewhat more cheerful.
however. and there was tendency to
break away from gloomy forebodings.
The moderate tone of Gov. Suffers mes
sage to the legislature respecting the
stock exchange helped TO put Wall street
in more cheerful frame of mind.
