A large batch of favorable earnings contributed some foroe to the rise in prices.

Sugar closed under Saiurday’s final Price after early strength. London was not a | factor in the market. although the arbitrage houses took several thousand shares early in | the day. Operations were confined to tie | board-room traders, but some gretification was | expressed at the independent movement of the | railroad stocks and the prime character of some of the issues participating. In the final dealings there was some diminution in the vol- ume of business, but no impairment of the market's strength. Business in_railroad bonds continued small, but & nm't;‘ne was evident.
