There was no indication of an. nenousness In the stoeU lrurltet In the half-day with which the week ended, but instead contldence was in evidence in all important quarters, and, although it was taken as a posi tive fact that the supply of monej will be restricted, buying came in good volume from many iources, and there were general advai.ces all through the list ranging from 1 to more than 2 points. These gains were due to a great extent to the fact that tho market , had been thoroughly liquidated and that weak holdings had been cleaned out, making the technical position extremely strong and quick to re spond to any new favorable Influence. This was found In the gratifying reports of the success of the Amei ican offensive, and news from the battle Hiu-n had a good deal to do with making holders leluctant to sell and causing a deslic to accumulate long tocks, even if It Is necessaty to pay foi pm chases in full in cj-1i. The steel industrials again assumed the must prominent position, with United States Steel moving up more than 1 point and crossing 10D, while the same amount of gain was made in both Baldwin and Bethle hem Steel "B." The railroad stocks acted in a lignlflcintly strong mannei. although J the trading in these issues was small in oluine; but buying orders came from important banking interests, and it was generally understood that cjulef, accumulation In these stocks was in piogvesp. Coppershares also showed a strong tone with Anaconda moling up more than 1 point.
