BULLS HIT MARKET
WITH GREAT V|GOR
Movement Drives Weeks
Transactions Far Above
100000 Mark.

NEW YORK, March 1S.-The so--
allied bull movement in the stock
market which had its inception in
he final days OF February was con-
.inued this week with greater vigor.
here were three sessions n which
laily transactions ran far beyond the
lillion-share mark, and the weeks
otal Of about 5,500,000 shares estab-
shed a record for the current year.
New records also were made in the
yariety of stocks that changed hands.
ven though these included many is
ues of the low-priced rails, indus
-rials and shares of no particular
grouping.
Investment Rails Behind.
Investment rails were the only i'm
.ortant group to fall behind. Their
caviness was traceable in part to
tatements which accompanied the
announcement of change in the
vidend plans of the Great Northern
ailway.
Regardless of the passing of the
.rucible common dividend, steels
nore than held their ground, as did
llso most of the equipments, motors
ind the various food specialties; but
)ils, the Junior issue excepted, were
iesitant or heavy.
Inc prominence OF commission
ouses in the enlarged operations Of
he week gave color to reports of a
evival of public interest on an ex-
ensive scale. 1t was estimated, how
yer. that fully IS per cent Of the
.ading emanated from professional
.ources.
Industrial and Commercial.
Industrial and commercial condi-
ions improved with the approach Of
pring, as evidenced by the increased
demand for iron and steel Larger
sales of merchandise at agricultural
enters, due to a considerable extent
% the advance in prices of food
tufts, was another favorable factor.
Easy money rates were the chief
Incentive of propelling power. Call
pans fell to per cent in the open
market and as low as 21a per cent in
private offerings. Bank acceptances
were taken at concessions, and more
liberal purchases of longtime paper
we're made.
Better Situation Ahead.
Recent adverse developments
lbroad seemed to have run their
.ourse, judging from the spirited re-
pound in leading international cur
rencies. Sterling rallied liz cents
from the low of the early week, and
french, Belgian and Italian remit
lances made corresponding recov-
cries. The German rate remained
weak. however, on the claim of the
United States government for pay
.nent of its Rhineland expenses.

 The chief means of existence they hope to find by utilizing the resurces of the island itself; the development Of fruit growing and the breeding of cattle.
