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. Southern
Pacific justified its strength in the
declaration of the regwlar quarterly div
idend. Western roads were not affected
by the decision of the Coinmwcc Com
mission respecting rates from Missouri
river territory to tilie Pacific coast.
Bonds were steady.

That is the chief use of his tusks—to
help him to climb up the sheer and

as a hammer —bang!—and, fixing his
tusks in, he draws up his soft body—a
strange sight to see;
