NEW YORK, Jan. 25. With no appar
ent reason for a change in the couixe of the
stock market today, the tone became dl
tlnctly stronger. In ths early part of tha
day prices rose to a point or mora above
yesterday-a clos The latter half of the
seaslon was dull. Improvement In prions
waa well maintained. In the laat few min
ute there waa a sudden burst of activity,
chiefly In St. Paul and Roadlng, both of
which sold off abruptly.
Tratllnr was heaviest In the leading rail
road stocks. Vnlon Pacific showed mora
strength than for eeiejral day St. Paul
rose a point early in the day.
Indications that earnings of the Western
lines have been comparatively poor during
recent weeks were borne out by the Decem
ber statement of Atchison. Gross earning
fell oh- I4O0.000, although a reduction lu
operating expense limited th decline In
net to half IhiU amount.
Foreign exchange rose sharply. Demand
terllng touched 4.87 Vi. th highest point
alnc Hay, 1910.
American Tobacco common was taken
over today from tha "curb" to the stock
exchange. Opening at 250, unchanged
from the last aaia In the outside market.
It rose to 201 Vi.
Bonds were firm. Total sale par valu
