Railroads Stocks Are
Strong, Many Sales

New York, May 14.-The New York
Evening Sun financial review today
said:
Following upon the disposal of the
accumulation of buying orders in steel
and other industrial shares, interest
suddenly shifted to the railroad list
toward the end of the first hour in
today's session of the stock market.
From the moment Of opening trading
was lively and by l o'clock transact
ions had rolled up a total exceeding
1926. 900 shares, thus insuring a second
million share session this week and a
fourth for the present movement. In
dustrial advances at the start were
very moderate save in some of the
specialties.
Through the mid day period realiz-
ing sales set prices back several points
in some cases. In the early afternoon,
however, buying was resumed. Ameri-
can Sugar Refining rallied briskly fol
lowing the declaration of an extra
quarterly dividend of 3-4 to one per
cent for the four coming quarters. The
rails, which had tlnpolarily loi;
ground, likewise came back in good
form. Toward the closing trading was
of a mixed character and prices turn
ed soft and irregular.
