WEEKLY REVIEW

NErr YORK, March 1s.-The So
called bull movement In the stock mar
ket which had its inception in the
fnal days Of February, was continued
this week with great vigor. There were
three sessions In which daily trans
actions ran far beyond the million
share mark and the weeks total of
about 6.5Oo1o0 shares established
record for tho current year.
New records also were made in the
variety of stocks that changed hands.
even those included many features of
the low priced rails. industrials and
shares Of no particular group.
Investment rails were the only i'm
partant group to fall behind. Their
heaviness was traceable in part to
statements which accompanied the an
