This was n natural outcome of the coiillicjlns; report of the strike con dition. There wns, however, no nctiinl vienknes shown. The steel and copper .Inrku yielded some ground. hut this ivn more than counlerhiilnnced ly the igor 011 upbidding of other speculative fn nrlle, especially the oil, tobacco nnil ciilptiiPiit shares. The outstanding feature of the ilnj's operations was the prniiniinceil under tine of strength nnil the resistance against nil efforts of the trading element to force a reaction. In scattering parts of the list, notiibly in the coppers, there was some softness to be found, but the nininspring of the market was (list i tit t Ix strong. Interval of extreme ilullncs's punctuated the ilny's session, but nt nil limes it obviously required less ef fort to push prices up than to depress them. Much constructive demonstration ,.,, . countered nn enthusiastic follow lug. while, on the other luitid. the recessions were not only stubbornly contested but were iimiriahl.i followed hy siendih iliminisliing dealings, in n number of i istances iti intensified dullness.

This movement likewise wn of short duration Offsetting this freh enthusiasm appeared in the nil. tobac co, equipment and motor shares, tliiins In these selected issues were extended from 1 to seven point, the wider nil v.inces occuriug ngnln in oil group Texns Company lend at an advnnce of 7 points, on the unconfirmed reports of reducing the par value to 'J.Y Overnight niinljsis of the steel strike apparently developed nothing of siifii cient import to alter Wall street's view or conclusions as to that interesting slnaion. The day's rcpnrs, it is true, were conflicting, yet seemingh failed to incite the slightest diminishnieiil in IV confidence in the industrial situa tion. I was quite generally agreed on nil sides, that the cnmbal was yet too young to venture definite conclusions. Still considerable signitiicance wa at tached to' the authentic reports indica ting thai the number of men who .' nl lesponiled to the strike order was fur I'roni reaching the proportions predicted by the union labor leaders.

Instead of n weak and sensi live affair which was altogether proh , able in view of the posihle uation I w ide distill bine influence of the walk 1 nut of the steel winders, the entire 1 list displayed u tone of significant 1 strength. Instead of an avalanche of 'silling orders then- was to be found in ; all quarters an impressive Imying dc 1 niand.
