but there was 1111 uimlstnk.ibU tono of
strength and the tntlro list showed a
substantial Improvement. Dealing In Pis
lilghb speculative li dustrlals predomi
nated but tho proportions of tho eleillnfcs
In thum vvero not so evctsslvo. There
was a notable movemert In tho Leather

Btrcngth under the Influence of the cov
ering by tho outstanding short Interest
who wero Influenced Uy tho general
strength of the genual maiket. Reports
of a military victory sui tallied tho Lon

tho bujlng of ratlro ids was conspicuous
In the Grangers. Southern Pacific, and
Baltlmoro and Ohio, though tho latter
slorl: met free offerlrgs to leallzo. Tho
railroad list geneiallv was benefited sym
pathetically by this strength. The St.

which In turn had tern greater than tho

Influence of strength. Tho Increased
giain moement, grcd export demand
for wheat and the continued Increased

Tho preliminary statement of agricul
tural reports ti.nl shown decreases from
last December of 2O0.2V5 and as tho to

crease from December of lsW, onlv $14,
C"i.3.'i2, the difference Is attributed to the
opening of ports to manufactured goods.
Taking tho calendar eear as a whole tho

offset by decline in the eveess gold Im
