STRONG CLOSING
MARKS MARKET
New High Levels for Some
Stocks Feature Busy
Day.
BY BRoADAN WALL.

New York. Feb. 21.-NotwIth-
standing considerable realizing the
stock market maintained its upward
trend today and closed in the midst
OF a burst OF strength that was i'm
pressiye. The buying movement
which gained fresh impetus in the
late trading following a slight cas-
ing on in quotations earlier In the
Cay continued up TO the close when
nnsl quotations were near the best
of the day, and in some instances
at new high levels for this move
ment. The volume Of transactions
was large and included many Is
sues which appeared on the tape for
the first time in weeks. The appear
ance OF substantial buying orders
in the last hour in the most active
issues led to the expectation that
the strength will continue to pre-
vail at least during the early ses-
sion on Monday.
Important commission houses re-
ported an increased interest on the
part of their customers, but denied
that the public was displaying any
interest worth mentioning. a be-
lief has been growing in the finsn-
ciaI district that the activity in the
market was resulting in a substsn-
tisl Increase in the loans of COM
mission houses. but the partners in
some of these firms declare that
the expansion in their loan account
has been unimportant.
Although the earnings of the
porphyr copper companies for the
last quarter of 1918 made a very
poor showing the action OF the
stock in advancing sharply came in
for much attention.
Utah Touches High Price.
Utah, which sold as low as IS rs
at one time during the session
touched a high price OF SO IA dur
ing the last hour and closed with
in a fraction OF the top. Ray Con-
solidated was neglected but Chino,
after early heaviness, rose more
than a point from the low quota
tion of the day.
United States Rubber was un-
usually active ana rose nearly 8
points to the new high Of 81 "a.
Corn Products refining was very
quiet notwithstanding that rumors
were current that the annual report
would be announced and would
show earnings of only IS to 50 a
share on the common stock.
OIL shares were again active at
sppreciations in market quotations.
