While there were the same twisting and turning of the nrofcselenal trailers, the trend of today s stock market wax again dis tinctly upward. I'oel activities were in evidence In many parts of the list, which accounted for the constant shift ing of leadership. It was largely an industrial affair, as the operations in the railroads were virtually limited te the low-priced Issues. Overnight developments were some what mixed in their Influences. Jokers concealed in the bonus bill, while ap pearing disturbing en the surface', did net cause much commotion because of the sensible recognition of the fact that the bill, In no matter what form It Is adopted, has still a long and tedious journey te make before it actually be comes a law. Little attention was like wise given te the private advices of nnether of the occasionally speculative panics in the Flowery Kingdom, in volving this time the collapse of the comer in rice. The sharp drop in the Federal Reserve ratios of reserve and a fairly large increase in note circulation were enen te different Interpretations. Frem a constructive viewpoint It would seemingly indicate a sharp imprevc- I ruent In commercial lines. I The substantial rebound of the pre ceding sessions from the setback earlier In the week logically Invited quite n considerable line of prefit-taklnc. The murkct's absorption capacity evidently was nsaln found te be plastic. Then came the news of the suspension of a prominent banking concern whlrh ninde Its headquarters In Philadelphia. The only direct reflection was the weakness jef Transcontinental Oil, In which the heti'c and its following were supposedly i larcclv Interested. , Gains of 1 te points were made by i various Issues at the active and bread opening, even the steels coin;; forward, despite yesterday's suspension of the Sloss-Sheffield preferred dividend. Leaders of the early ndvanec included Crucible. Gulf States. Lima Locomo tive Computing Tabulating, Hous Heus Hous eon Oil, American Oil, American Su gar. Seuth Perte Rice and Continental Can. Investment rails rose only frac tionally, but secondary .harcf, notably Ann Arber prcferred and New Orleans. Texas and Mexico gained vl and 2 points respectively. Sellinc for nrefits was In evidence dur ing the morning, but the market strengthened and became mere e.pnn "ive. Many equipment and utilities were added te the Inns lNt of. higher I nrires. New Yerk Air lSrnkc. Cen elidatcd Gas. Laclede Gas. Western Union and American Telephone rose 1 te .IV. neints. Steels, sugars nnd spe cialties, the latter including National ! Cleak and Suit. Remington Typewriter. Otis Elevator. Famous Players and Kn- dicett Jehnsen, gained 1 te !!,& points. Oils also were higher by 1 te IS point, Transcontinental excepted.
