STRONG UPWARD MOVEMENT
DEVELOPS IN STOCK MARKET.
VOLUME OP TRANSACTIONS
UNUSUALLY LAKGE.
Ability to Digest Profit-Takings
Convinces Traders of Its
Stability.
Xcw York, Aus. 15. The crcepins move
ment of prices which was the characteris
tic of last week's stock market, devel
oped Into a strong and comprehensit e up
ward motement to-day. The volume of
transactions was above the previous total
of any day during the present movement.
The mirket was broad and the strength
npd nctivlty were well distributed, prac
tically all till Isions of the market sharing
In the adiance
There was much .cl!lnj: to Wee-profits
dunns th dav, and constant reactions in
consequence, hut the minner of disrstine;
this iirolit-takins was more conilnc-ng as
to the hal:h of the market tlun the up
ward rush of prices itself, which has been
under suspicion of manipulation and due to
the skillful tactic of profc--'onal oper
ators. This suspicion his been cff"ctlie in
keepinp- the general public out of the trad
ing. In the belief that the professional op
erations would proie impos"ihIe of suc
ci?ful completion and would lead to col
lapse when the period to take profit ar
rived. confidence: in market.
There was no important development In
tho news to-day or since the clos-j of the
market last week, but tho early tone gave
convincing oIdence of something like a,
crjstalliz.itlon of confldcncer in tho future
of the; marl-oi. Oulsld order through
commission-houses Accumulated over Pun
day were allowed to be larger than here
tofore. Iondon wa? also a oujtr ncrc to
an Important extent. Imdon wa3 report
ed to be more confident 01 cr it money
outlook and capital wa said to draw an
atisury of a hastened peace In the far
Hist hs a consequincc of the serious re
verses to the Russian naval forces.
The basis of the growth of confidence
hi re was quite clearly the faith that the
countiy i to enjoi nrosperou. crops. The
corn ard cotton carriers showed the great
est cfiects from this faith, but St. Paul
as a wh3t carrier v.ith a large spring
v. I',tt traffic was not excluded.
'('lie uuition of the a.nount of wheat
(s.irin;:) damage was admitted to be un
determinable as jet. but the high price
promi'cd for the crop v.as offered as pro
viding an ofTtot for the shortness of the
crop
The mot conspicuous feature ot the
m irkel. howe-r. was its diversion into
tho rcw field of the trunk lines and coal
ers. These group-; have been compaes
tlily neglected, v. hile the crops have
bicn of dominant interest.
ITiON AND STEEL.
Good prospects in the steel trade- hie
sold rennsilianla at time', but the move
ment of tlice stocks to-day seemed nore
to be based on assumptions of (he good
to come from the crcps to the whole coun
try. L'rjtcd States Steel preferred v as
tho conspicuous laggard in the day'3
movement.
This was presumably due to the current
rumors of a purpose to cut prices on fin
ished uroduets with hostile intent toward
the independent companies.
Southern Pacific was under constant
pressure to take profits, and made its
h'gheet pries ou the running quotations
and at the opening. Ths Metropolitan
tractions were feverish and irregular
throughout the day. In spite of the vio
lent advance of Ii-terborougli Transit on
tlie curb.
The unsettling Influence of these excep
tions to the day's strength gained force
and ths amount of selling for profits alio
