Maximum Scale-Prices
Keep Up.
MANY LARGE ADVANCES

terday aggregated about a million and
a quarter shares. This was a close
approximation to the total dealings last
Friday. but there was this difference
between the two sessions, that whereas
week ago the statistical averages ad-

was only about a quarter of a point.

than when the marked expansion OF
trading began.
Moreover. the price movement yester-
day was not fairly Indicated by closing
changes, especially for the so-called
standard shares. Al one time during
the session practically all stocks sold at
much the highest levels yet reached on
the movement. even though healthily
heavy profit taking caused much OF the
earlier gains to be cancelled in the late
trading At that very substantial net
advances were retained by a large
variety of issues and tho session was
notable for the great strength display ed
in groups OF stocks Among them were
the petroleum shares, the metal shares
including more than the copper issues.
