points in today's brief session of the

railroad executives believe that the final

Union Pacific led the rally with gain
of points, while Atlantic Coast Line,
Chesapeake & Ohio, Southern Railway,
Wabash, Norfolk g. Western and New
York Central all closed with net ad-
vances of 8 points or more.
One of the most interesting develop
mentS OF the days news was the an
nouncement of an increaes from so to
80 per cent in tin plate production this
week. Otherwise, the days business
news was rather colorleSS in character.

The stock has been comparatively in
