Tho stock "market ngaln showed
igns today of throwing off reac
tionary tendencies.
Hears found the market rather
thoroughly sold out, for the mo
ment, ut least, nnd stocks worked
substantially higher, under the
Influence of short covering.
The announcement of American
tobacco two-for-one split up and
$4 extra dividend, was a bright
spot.
Call money continued cheap,
touching 1 M per cent for the
first time in 13 years, after re
newals at 2.
I rt nsiirimuil ttl ink i mining nuj-
plv of dividend paying snares i
caught the hears when they sought
to cover In the last hour, and ad
vances of 3 to 13 points resulted.
The market closed strong. Sales
