TRADING EXCEEDS
: 100000 SHARES
Railway List Breaks Into
New High Grounds

New York. April 14.-Trading in the
stock market today again exceeded 1.Ooo,-
600 shares, with a continuance of strength
and breadth. Bethlehem Steel was far
less conspicuous today although it made
a 20-point gain to 145 in the first 10
minutes. 1t closed at 1913, a net gain of s
points.
The railway list in part, all coppers and
some of the better known equipments
and utilities, broke into new high ground,
their advance being again ascribed in
many quarters to purchases by commits
sion houses acting for out-of-town clients.
Motor stocks moved irregularly, some
of them falling under yesterdays final
quotations. United States Steel was made
tho objective of fresh selling movement in
the final hour, which extended to Reading
and few other railers and impaired an
irregular tone at the close
Total sales of stocks 1,030. 300 shares
Bonds irregular speculative issues show
sng further heaviness. Total sales, par
value, aggregated 100000.
United States bonds unchanged on call.

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York. April 14.--(Special.) -Trading
in the market today was less vigorous,
attention being given to the stock ex-
change fluctuations in considerable de-
gree. On good Liverpool the market
opened higher, but the buying was too
moderate to sustain prices, which under
the pressure of realizing sales. and Liver
pool orders, yielded gradually to the
close. : The government report on con-
sumption was thought bullish, but Its
influence was temporary. outside bust
ness was small. The weather bureau
reports the season late, especially in the
southeast. Advances now meet profit
taking, and speculation seems to be wait
ing for further facts to justify an Nm
provement above the present range of
prices. Some continental buying is re-
ported, and a good spot demand in Liver
pool.
