GOSSIP OF WALL STREET.
stocks Advance Briskly.

Wall Street had its feet braced for a
pinch In money yesterday. Any num-
Der OF people had made arrangements to
buy stocks on the we'll advertised dip,
which was generally anticipated. The
money pinch developed on scheduled
time, but something went amiss with
the slump, because there were moro buy

the list and prices generally advanced.
Money opened at per cent. and adj
vanced to 10 per cent, with little wanted
at the higher figure. Stockholders and
traders. however. understood pretty we'll
that the pinch was temporary and that
normal condition probably would be

baker OF the motors and Baldwin of the

ception of the coppers. which displayed
q heavy tone. the market displayed
buoyancy during most of the day. A
great many market observers were dis
posed to view the rally as a prediction
exhibition. On the other hand. there
was evidence that 1t was something
more than mere short covering. A little
of the edge was off the bond market, but
II still maintained strong undertone.
The professional element was decidedly
cheerful after the close on the belief that
a rally which should carry through cleo
