Their raid to-day was aided by a few nervous holders of stocks who seemed to fear that there might be a repetition of the break of nearly three weeks ago. But the drop in prices proved to be ‘of short duration. Before the end of the first half hour the market's for- ward movement again got under full swing, with specialties which are he- lieved to be in line for a “melon” cut- ting soaring in spectacular manner. The early attack on prices was di- eted principally at Standard Oi! and fexican oll shares, It proved to be an unfortunate selection on the part of bears, for not only was selling easily absorbed, but before noon fresh gressive buying caused most of the stocks in this group to sell up to new high marks, many showing net gains of ten points and more. What greatly added impetus to the forward movement was the announce- <nrent of the Standard Oil Company of ew York that it had dectded to dis- ribute a 200 per cent. stock dividend and reduced the par value of the shares from $100 to $25 Other spectacular gains were Fisher ju Pont, 43-4, American National Biscuit, 4, to a new high record; Houston Oil, 6 3-8, May Department Stores, 3 3-4, R ; Latest | den Mot Deb 6% i | Goodrich _ Open as EW t Until 9 o’Cloc rALSUITS TOP COATS and OVERCOATS Snappy, Up-to-Date Styles Special, Extra Fine $ All Wool Men’s Suits 15 { BOYS’ nolds Tobacco 6, Tidewater Oil 4 1 Fall Vnited Fruit 5, Western Union 4 and Woolworth 5 6-8.
