WALL STREET LIST
CLOSES NEAR TOP
Southern Railway and West
ern Maryland Strong-Ship
Shares in Squirt.
BY STUART z. WEST.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, May 4.-Strength in
today's stock market was pretty even
ly distributed over the entire list, the
rails and several of the high-priced in
dustrials taking the lead. Operations
in SpeCialties were conducted with IN
creaing assurance by pools, a number
of stocks in this class advancing to
their highest for the year. The mar
ket was still discriminating, however,
in favor of stocks which represent sat
iSfactory conditions in their reSpec-
tive lines of trade. The oils were frac-
tionally higher, while the SteelS con
tirued to hang behind. The strength
in some of the rails attracted the
greatest attention and was easy to
explain on the ground of possible
merger deals or higher dividends.
Southern Railway at New Top.
The early strength in the rails was
not consistently maintained in the
later trading. Southern Railway went
up to new high above 50. There
was some demand for Western Mary
land, which is a merger possibility,
and st. Louis San Francisco was quite
n feature with a rise above II, which
meant considerably the best 1t has
yet sold for. 1t is an old story to
talk about an increased dividend, but
lDlS WAS lIle sure pStSiS lpl lilt 'bN li4s>.
Atchison. which last week sold eN-
dividend of / q per cent, touched 100,
and New York Central was actively
bought for a time. But both stocks
ran into heavy profit taking at the
higher levels.
Steel Inclined to Drag.
The regular leaders among the in
dustrialS did comparatively little one
way or the other. United States Steel
was inclined to drag, and after its
big rise last week il was not surprls-
ing that American Can should have
encountered a good deal of realizing.
Baldwin Locomotive was also chang
ing fire most of the time. The new
high in United States Industrial Alec
hol was associated with reports that
resumption of dividends is now under
consideration. Coco Cola made new
high, but there was nothing fresh III
this situation. The favorable argu-
ments remained as they have been all
along-the good earnings. the pros
pect of a dividend increase and the
retirement of the preferred stock.
Shipping Stocks Strong.
Shipping stocks had quite a squirt,
including International Merchantile
Marine preferred. Congoleum was an
other specially Wnlch hdd q Jump.
United States Rubber was actively
bought, still anticipating the favorable
effect of the increased tire prices upon
earnings. Also the company has been
much benefited by the Improvement
in the market for crude rubber.
Financial commentators point out
that the current operations of the
Dodge Co. are at the annual rate of
S24 on the one share of preference
stock and over ST on the one share of
common stock which the holder of the
certificate, now listed on the Stock
