NEW YORK. January 1.-THE

inclined TO look for reaction. was
skeptical about the upturn in the
Junior rails, which was one of the
features of the day. It professed to
look upon this az a demonstration in
tended to cover UP realizing sales in
the industrial quarter
AS a matter Of fact. however, the
loW-pr1ced rails.w were the one section
or the market which had not had
much OF recovery; that is. a recov-
cry commensurate with that in other
directions. Therefore, their advance
might fairly have been attributed to
the diversion into these stocks of
speculative profits made elsewhere
The movement started in New Haven
and spread to the st. Louis, South
Westerns. Rock Island, the Fries and
50 Lonts and San Francisco. The San

There was no essential change in

was whether or not recovery had gone
far enough for the time being. mas
much as speculative opinion on this
subject was very much divided, the
price movement rejecting these diff

regular.
The professionals were. as a rule
working for a reaction not because
they rejected the idea that outside
business had turned the corner, but
because the market had been going
up steadily for over u week and on
technical grounds a recession was
felt to be due Against the efforts
TO get prices down, however, there
was fresh buying in various direc-
tons, notably in the low-priced rails,
At the same time in the industriaIs
which had had the largest rise on
previous days, there was evidence
that the demand from the short in
