WHEELING IS AGAIN
MARKET LEADER
Western Maryland Shares
LimeIight-Merge RumorS
Heard in Street.
RY STUART p. WEST.

Special Dispatch Ia rhe star
NEW YORK. january - To-day $
stock market again was chiefly con
cerned with developments in the
Wheeling & Lake Erie and Western
MARYLAND situation, There were
rumors of the Rockefeller interests
increasing their holdings in the open
market; there were rumors of mergers
H. which the two roads would figure.
Wall street feels that there must be
a great deal in these reports because
there had hecn plenty of time TO dehN
them and they had not been denied.
Whatever the exact explanation,
there was no question that the de-
mand was extremely urgent ana that
il was reckless of the prices pald.
Roth Wheeling and Lake Erie ana
Western MARYLAND, but the former
more particularly. were obviously
growing scarcer on the way up. rms
would not have happened had the ac-
o4lisition of the shares been anything
hut a genuine acquisition. wheeling
and Lake Erie had jumped another
eight noints before it commenced TO
run into any considerable supply.
Western Maryland was more freely
offered after it had risen a point.
The general market was certainly
NOT enthusiastic over the Wheeling
Lid y
cident and it was question whether
this was not having a deterring inttu
ence.
Efforts to buy up the small amount
of Pittsburgh and West Virginia out
standing brought another sensational
rise in the stock. On the other hand,
good part of the railway list was
doing little or nothing. There was
plenty of New York Central and
Atchison, so it seemed, around exist
ing levels. Kansas City Southern
ran I'D at one time nearly point and
Missouri Kansas-TeXa also.
The feature in the oils was thu
sharp advance on a large turnover
In Producers and Refiners This
stock stood up so conspicuously,
where most of the other oils were do
ing nothing, as TO indicate special
cause. The story was that deal had
been arranged by which Producers
and Refiners would be taken over by
another property and that announce
ment TO this effect shortly would be
made
With the exception of Colorado
Fuel and Iron, in which operations
for the rise were active last week and
which got above so again. the steels
as group were dull and heavy
This was true of United States Steel
and of Crucible. Republic Iron and
Steel dropped some 2 points and vas
off 4 points from the recent high,
suggesting that the upward move
ment had been speculative.
The shorts in Baldwin Locomotive
were doing some covering.

Local bankers declared today that
Thrift Week has caused the starting
of many bank accounts, had aroused
renewed interest in home economy
through budget system. had inspired
many with the desire to own their
own homes, to take out life insurance,
to make safer investments and in
other ways get the benefit of greater
thrift during the coming year
Just how much good Thrift Week
really accomplished is difficult to state
because no definite figures are avail
able on the number of new bank
accounts which can be traced solely to
the drive The same is true of the
other matters stressed on special days.
The demand for budget booklets. how
