B.-The stock mttrki was subjected to a notable process of d gestlon today and en me through the 01 deal remarkably well. Stocks which wet loaders In activity nnd strength during tl movement of last week wore heavily sol to take prollts. The profit-taking wns mi by so considerable nit outside demand thr offerings were absorbed with little dill cully and without any material concesslo In price being niaile nece.-sary. Indeed , an approach In prices to Saturday's lovi-l K suited In n notable htirdgnlng In the mat krt. the surface becoming practically til yielding at Saturday's level. Offerings slocks fell tn n minimum and buyers , I nnler to secure slocks , were obliged t raise their bids Io a point to yield prollt to thp sellers on their lu t week's pin chases. While professional operators were thu taking prollts at some points In the Us they were replacing their funds In othc stocks which had not moved thn lust wee or In which the movement had been mil Inaugurated. Tim * , with trading procecil Ing on an active scale and llin moveincti of prices taking on a considerable degrc of Irregularity the market presented a ! the charach rlstlcs of a true bull move ment. 1'pwiird mnvpinents in pi Ices wer easily achieved and the spi-ciilatlve sentl ment showed Itself quick to respond t nny news developments regarding sprclu stoeks. Tims a number of railroad slock responded quickly and emphatically to re turns of earnings for the fourth wepk I January , showing large Increases over lit high level of last year. Thp leaders o the railroad list were the Norfolk . < t Western orn stocks , the fourth week's slaletnen showing an Increase of J122.351 over las year.
