 NEW YORK, April 30 Stocks moved upward decisively in the late trading, after several hours of uncer- tain movements. Until the final up- turn, which was accomplished by a burst of activity, the trading was dull Most of the time the level of prices was above yesterdays close. but the market was disturbed by pressure against some of the weaker stocks. The needed impulse came in the last half hour in the shape Of circumstan- i ial reports that the control of Missouri Pacific would pass into new and pow erful hands. This stock, which pre- viously reached new low point at ! 15A, was bid up nearly points from 1 the days low market, and the whole market advanced with it.

Additional rail- road reports for March, in most cases, made d better exhibit than in recent months Under these influences there was d general advance of prices dur ing the forenoon.
