STOCKS SENT Up

Advances of Four Points in

NEW YORK. November lin the
most active trading in nearly month,
the post election bull movement in the
stock market rolled forward today.
More than 100000 shares changed
hands in the first half hour.
Prices pushed up l to more than 4
points in the earlier hours of trading,
sharply extending the gains of the pre-
vious session. As in yesterdays session,
however, the market had spell of hest
fancy around midday, in which ex-
IRENE advances we're pared down by

still small. The rails, particularly, were
said to be benefting from short cover
ing. American Telephone, another STOCK
which had been a recent bear target
both from large professional operators
and small spectators, was likewise
boosted by covering.
Speculation on Report
The principal influence which lent
an encouraging background to sentl-
ment concerning the rails continued to
come from the prospect Of report,
early next year. from the non-partisan
Coolidge Commission. The davs news
was not especially favorable. st. Paul,
for instance, was stated in preliminary
estimates to show net operating in

against Sl,470477 in September The
October figure, however, compared IA
vorably with the corresponding 1881
