STOCKS REACH
HIGH RECORDS
Over a Million Shares in
Turnover Which Is the
Heaviest for Season.
By BROADAN WALL.

New York, March New high rec
ords were again made I'm the stock
market today. The turnover was the
heaviest witnessed for any full ses-
sion for many months and approxi-
mated million shares. Some profit
taking developed in the late after
noon, but the readiness with which
all offerings were absorbed resulted
in strong closing. final quotations
in most instances being within a frac-
tion OF the high prices for the dsy
notwithstanding the expansion in
dealings some OF the important COM
mission houses declared that their
business for the day was less than
in recent sessions. Call money was
slightly frmer. but brokers report
very little increase in their loan ac-
counts.
Despite the blue funk into which
the financial district seems to have
worked itself with regard to rail-
road stocks, some houses were today
advising the purchase OF these shares
They were particularly bullish with
regard to Southern Pacific and Read
ing. This advice was responsible in
no small degree for the advance OF
from l to points in the most active
rails. Attention was called to the
fact that the stocks OF the important
ansportation systems OF the coun-
try are now selling near the recent
low figures.
The strength with which the gen.
eral list closed was considered in
most quarters as indicative OF a prob
able continuation OF the upward move
ment tomorrow although all profit
taking is expected to develop.
Philadelphia interests were report
ed prominent in the buying OF Bald
win Locomotive. Rumors were cur
rent that the directors this spring
may begin dividends on the stock at
the rate of Sc share annually.
United States Industrial Alcohol was
purchased at steady appreciation
In quoted market value. Buyers OF
the stock revived the old story OF
large distribution to be made TO share
holders.
Pierce Arrow advanced fraetionally
Notwithstanding persistent reports
that the directors will reduce the
dividend at their next meeting.

Mastering n Trust.

Some years ago a combination was
formed Of various companies which
manufactured like commodity
which was Of industrial Importance.
The capital was enlarged by mil
lions. and the parent corporation
mOnopoIized the manufacture and
marketing or this commodity. The
retail prices were increased and the
company was able TO pay handsome
dividends upon the greatly enlarged
capital Thereupon other capital
undertook 10 establish new plants.
capitalizinE them at relatively
small figure so that it was able to
market tho products at cut price.
and pay reasonable dividend upon
the investment. The trust was in
this way destroyed and the example
which was set by those who under
took this method Of so-caIled trust
busting has been in other cases
followed
whether il is true or not that
there has been established among
wholesale fish dealers in the East a
trust which has constituted a mono
pnly - the Eastern markets, and
has been able to maintain a very
high price for fish. the fact is that
private capital has undertaken to
dOminat" the situation so as TO
break the so-caIIed fish trust. il
there be any. and to market fish at
T"asOna BILE prices
Capital Is doing this by highly per-
f"cted modern machinery. This ma
rhinery is installed upon swift yes
sells capable OF weathering any storm
upon the Atlantic. These vessels arc
equipped with great baIIoon-like
net Machinery drops the net into
the ocean. machinery operates the
vessel. and also hauIs the net to the
deck Of the vessel then hand labor
iS required in order to ice the fish
These nets will take in ct one hsi,I
and IN an hours time nearly 400 900
pounds OF fish. One Of them came
into New York dav or two ago with
cargo Of several tons OF frasb
tsh. and great was the consterna ton
and the Generalization among the
leading wholesale fish dealers. The
