NEW YORK, May 1.-THE further
strength Of yesterdays stock market,
especially the demonstration in rails,
seemed to imply that wall street looks
FORWARD with confidence TO the conyen
ing Of Congress in the coming week.
At no period since the inception Of
the bull movement, now some three
months back, has the accumulation Of
transportation been so comprehensive
or consistent as was witnessed In the
COURSE Of today's active session.
Instead OF the iow-prtced or "reor-
ganized" properties which recently
commanded the bulk Of speculative at
tendon interest conferred largely in
investment issues which are expected
to derive substantial benefits from con
structtye Federal legislation.
Gains among Pactfics, grangers coal
en- and cotton carriers ranged from /
70 81 points, but secondary issues
were not overlooked, Texas and Pa
cific, Missouri Pacific, Chicago Great
Western, Rock Island, Southern Rail-
way, Fries and Pere Marquette making
substantial advances.

 DESTROYED BY FIJI
Automobile Paint Shop on MapA Avenue. Hartford. Totally De-
 stroycd Early This Morning.

Hartford, Feb. 13.-Fifty high breed automobiles were destroyed and the two story brick building at No. $50 Maple avenue wrecked by fire shortly after , o'clock this morning in the automobile painting shop of John Roche & Co. The damage is estimat- ed at $250,000.
 Exploding gasoline and benzlne, the fierce heat radiating from the burn- ing building and the fact that there was but one hydrant within almost a quarter of mile of the fire ham, pered the tremen greatly. Salvage or any of the cars was impossible. The blaze was discovered by Philip Roche, son of the president of the company, while busy in the office. Roche smelled smoke and, looking into the shop, saw the whole interior in flames. Exploding gasoline and benzine car ried the flames to all parts Of the building. Mir. Roche was unable to- day to tell accurately how the hro originated. He thought it might have been due to short electric cir cult in one of the cars.
