STRONG BALLY 1H STOCKS
WALL STREET MARKET RE
VERSES LATE COURSE.
Broad Demand Sets In for High
Grade Rails and Other In
vestment! Issues.
NEW YORK. Dec. 28. Opening with a
number of irregular changes. In which lueses
predominated, today's brief but active stock
market suddenly reversed its course, closing
with a broad demonstration of strength.
Early weakness was caused by reactions
of 1 to almost 3 points in Marine preferred,
low-grade rails, coppers and a varied group
or specialties, the break in shippings being
attributed to overnight cables indicating
further delay In the consummation of the
long-pending deal. Bear pressure was di
rected also against Standard Oil.
It was not until an inquiry set In for
high-grade or Investment rails that the
market caught its upward stride. Trans
continentals rose lo 2b points. Southern
Pacific leading. Grangers were featured by
Atchison and coalers by Reading and Nor
folk Ac Western, the latter rising d points.
Steels, coppers, oils and utilities partici
pated in the advance with tobaccos, food
shares and a number of tha better-known
specialties, final quotations in general being
at the day's highest levels. Sales amount
ed to 600,000 shares.
Liberty Issues again featured tha bond
market, about 80 per cent of the turnover
representing those flotations, which ranged
slightly over yesterday's final prices. Total
sales, par value, aggregated $17,850,000. Old
United States bonds were unchanged on call
during the week. n

8TOCK MARKET 13 HEALTHY POSITION
Heavy Sales ef Liberty Bonds Do Net Dis
turb Flnmnclers.
NEW TORK, Dec 28. The final week ef
a memorable year 'In the annals of the
world's financial markets effected no
change of moment In the conditions recent
ly exUtlng on the Stock Exchange, apart
from record-breaking sales of liberty bonds,
mostly at lowest quotation yet established.
This condition, generally accepted as a
temporary or pausing phaae, in no way dis
turbed the confidence of those captalna of
finance and industry, who believe this
country Is destined to occupy a position of
greater Importance and power tn the far
reaching period of reconstruction.
Various theories popularly advanced by
economists that the United States, no leas
than Its co-belligerents, will have to bear
Its share of the war a financial burdens for
many years, seem to be neutralised by the
country's enormous credits and gold hold
ings, as well as supplies of raw materials.
lomestlc basic conditions are regarded as
eminently- sound, but labor problems ans
readjustment of prices' of essential com
modities press for Increased recognition, as
Is evidenced by the pause In the steel and
Iron trades.
