KEW TORE. May 1. For a few hours to
mmy the advance In stoeka which progressed
briskly In the closing days of laat week
waa halted while tha market awaited word
from Waahingtoa as to whether decisions
were to be announced by tha Supreme Court
In the anti-trust casea. When It became
known that the decisions were not to a
handed down today tna buying movement
was resumed and prices moved upward.
Trading grew more active toward tha and
of the day and at tha cloae a number of
substantial advances were distributed
through the list of active Issuea
. Stocks were in acant aupply seen at tha
higher lavela The buying movement ap
parently rested on the aams broad basis
of Improving sentiment In regard to tha
general outlook which waa noted laat week.
Trading continued to ba largely professional,
however.
Metal stacks were well supported and
their advance reflected tha more cheerful
sentiment tn regsrd to the outlook for both
the copper and steel market. The fortnight
ly report of European copper stocks showed
another decrease bringing up the tetal
shrinkage in April to nearly S.AO0.0GO poonda
The outlook for the steel trade la msde
somewhat brighter by tha disposition af tba
railroads to re-enter the market.
Canadian Pacific continued Ita record
breaking movement, rising 4H polnta Un

sues moved agalnat the market, the pre
