. NEW YOKK, Feb. 21.— The operations
In today's stock market were of a char
acter to -encourage the hope long de
ferred, of an active entry Into the mar
ket of the public at large. The prin
cipal share of the market hitherto has
been attributed to professional oper
ators.. The success which has attended
these operations Is of course based on
a general confidence in the prosperity
of "general conditions and. a confident
■Investment demand, which buttresses
• the market by awaiting demand on all
recessions. But the hope of the pro
fessional contingent which has been
booming stocks has looked longingly
forward to an outbreak of a speculation
of a much wider scope than is Involved
in' such operations as these and which
is seen but once or twice in a-gener
ation. Such a movement has already
occurred In this generation nnd It cul
minated in the panic of May, 1901. The
unfortunate issue of that experience
' brought severe punishment that seemed
to serve ■as a wdrnlng .to the whole
.public and to discourage 'their
attejrfpt to obtain any share In the
benefits of the long expected advance
' which has occurred in the- present stock
market.
: The demand for stocks from this
source up to this time has been en
tirely inconspicuous, but evidences were
unmistakable today that the public was
coming freely into the market.
•The. tide of the buying demand had
air of 'the Impressive sweep of periods
of widespread speculation and the
movements were ■ characteristically
lacking in special news to explain them.
The only news that seemed to be re
garded was an advance In prices. Wher
ever this occurred It was sure to be
followed quickly by a surging demand
which churned up the particular stock
-affected Into violent activity and
buoyancy. All news was favorably In
terpreted or ■If that was not feasible,
was Ignored. ■
Union Pacific was the feature of the
market and was carried Irresistibly to
a record price level. The previous rec
ord: of $1.83 was touched In May, 19017
during the period of buying of the
stock In retaliation for the campaign
by Its owners for 'control of Northern
Pacific. Information from well-in
formed sources precluded the Idea that
anything like a corner in the stock was
threatened. Equally Informed authori
ties deprecated the talk that any plan
was' ln progress looking to a change in
the status of the company. , Banking
Interests near to the company were au
thority, for the opinion that the move
ment was purely due to speculation In
the Btock.
. An even violent price movement was
that In Sloss-Sheffield steel, which was
jumped up over 20 points.
Rumors were plentiful of a coming
merger of Southern Iron companies.
Storm blockades and holding of cotton
are forcing down the earnings of rail
roads In the southwest, but that group
.was: conspicuous for strength In the
.day's movement. The reported aban
.donment of railroad rate legislation for
this session of congress, the hope that
j th& | New Haven labor trouble is to
be' arbitrated and the belief that the
war of rates on export grain will soon
be ■ terminated, were minor Influences
"in.; keeping- up the demand, but the
other overriding' factor was the growth
and spread of speculative excitement
which brings Increasing crowds of buy
ers Into the market. Buying of this
character without a reason why swept
prices irreslstably to a higher level.
That advantage was taken of the nd
vent of public buying to secure proms
on an enormous scale was evident from
the occasional unsettlsment of the mar
ket. The closing itself was irregular,
but the general character of the day's
highly speculative market was not al
tered by this fuct. ,
Bonds were rteady, but were not so
active as stinks. Total sales $5,035,000.
■ .United' States bonds were all un
changed on call. -
