STOCK MARKET
PRICES ADVANCE;
TRADE IS ACTIVE
Foreign Relations of This Ma
ton Believed to Be Beyond
Danger of Serious Break
Anywhere.
tsv nosslso JOURNAL SPECIAL LEASED wlssl

New, York, April 25.--Wall street $
belief in the increasing betterment of
the country's external relations was
exemplified by a further advance of
prices today, although some of this ad-
vantage was forfeited in the final
hour. overnight unofficial advices
from Berlin suggested "A willingness
from that quarter to grant concessions
and there We're other signs of a dimi-
mutton of the strain.
This was partly nullified however
by reports of grave disturbances in
Ireland and indications of another dis
agreement in the British cabinet.
The market opened with another
outburst Of bullish enthusiasm and
stampede of the shorts, active special
ties advancing l to points in the
first hour and increasing this lead be-
fore midday. There were free offer
ings on the rise but these were con-
fidently absorbed until midday, when
the activity and advance came to a
halt. Thereafter dealings dwindled
and prices manifested some irregular
ity.
Traders were inclined to regard
United States steel as barometer OF
the market. that stock advance of Il
points IN the forenoon penlS dccuH-
panied by rumors of an extra" divi-
dend by the directors, who were to
meet after the close of the market.
AS it afterward developed, the steel
board at no time considered the ques-
ton of an additional disbursement, al
though it was admitted that the ret
ord earnings would have justified such
action.
Mercantile marines were the dorni-
nant issues, combined dealings in the
preferred and common shares. at eS-
IRENE advances of 3 Y and q points,
respectively, comprising more than
one-fifth OF the total operations war
shares and affiliated specialties were
to 10 points higher at their best
but yielded irregularly on profit-tak-
ing.
Rails in general were firm TO strong.
Total sales of stocks amounted to
about 100000 shares. Among the note
worthy railroad returns was that OF
the Atchison system for March, dis
closing a net increase of $l,l59,0O0.
Bonds were firm. Total sales, par
value, were $4.240, 900. United States
bonds were unchanged on call.

the cruise will provide naval re-
lserve-apart from the naval militia
that will be available in time of
war. Eight ships are doing the work
|of carrying the recruits:
The Kearsarge, sailing from Port
land, Me-, with about so recruits;
the Virginia from Boston with about
4G3 and from Newport with about
2S; the Maine and Kentucky from
New York with about 943: the
Rhode Island from Philadelphia
with about 379; the Illinois from
Norfolk with about 461 and the Ala
bama from Charleston with about
1O1 men.
The recruits day will start at just
about the time some of them have
been starting for the all-night ath-
Ietic clubs for combination late
supper and early breakfast a. IN.
1t ends at 9:05 p. m. 1t includes
everything from holystoning deck.
to learning what makes a turret
turn, and why. 1t won't be all work
and no play, though. Plans include
regattas, base ball games between
ship teams and swimming contests.
All the $500 will have a chance to
get a breath of salt air and a set of
sea legs. Many of them, it is eX-
pected, will join naval militia or
CARNATIONS after their first eXper-
ence with battleships. They will be
asked when the cruise is over
whether they will volunteer if the
United States has war within the
next four years. An important feat
ure of the cruise will be demon
stration along the Atlantic Coast
during the last days of the cruise, of
the efficacy of motor boats for home
defense against submarines. Such
of the $500 as own motor boats
along the Atlantic coast will bring
them out and learn how to sneak up
behind submarine and smash up its
periscope or otherwise run. Navy
submarines will be buffers for the
motorboat men. They will spend
part of the time as the attackers
and part of the time as the prey of
the wasp fleet" The Navy Depart
ment has high hopes for the cruise.
1t expects it to result in real naval
reserve that will be ready at call to-
repel invasion. There will be a lot
of fun in it; but there will be many
calloused hands, too.
