New York, Feb. 11.—Wall Street— United titatoe Steel was the feature of interest at the opening of to-day'« strong stock market, its very favorable tonnage stabnwnt of the jxrevioois day contributing to a flirt her rise. Initial trading in steel amounted to 1,500 Shares ait 42% anil 42%, from which it soon advanced to 43%. Union Pa cific, Reading and Atcibison also rose a point or more, with substantial ad vances in ot'har speculative favorites. The movement embraced a number of specialties, but these were less promi nent than usual. The rise was attended by considerable short covering. Lon don 's nuige for Americans indicated more steadiness. Trading in tfteel during the first hour was larger than the combined opera tions in all the otiher leaders. By nooon the stock had sold up to 43%, a gaiin of 1% -points over yesterday. Capper Shares also showed a good undertone on t'he increase of wages to minors in the I.Michigan district and restoration of the ( ahimet and (Heela dividend.
