Show PRICES TREND TO A HIGHER LEVEL Bull Move in Reading and Smelting Gives Evidence Evi-dence of a Pool. NKW YORK. Nov. 13. Opening prices In the stock market today were generally gener-ally higher, but there were a few scattering scat-tering losses, including some prominent stocks. The conspicuous gains were for the most part amongst specialties, the average changes being restricted to small fractions. Outside of a monetary relapse on realising real-ising soon after the opening, the direction direc-tion of prices was decidedly upwards, although al-though the most progress occurred only In stocks of comparative Inactivity. The buying of Reading and Smelting at ad- vances of a point or two respectively revealed re-vealed a renewal of the aggressive bull operations In these stockh and there was a more general disposition to take hold of other stocks that were credited with being in the hands of pool operators. Prices sagged for a time, but a revived demand for Reading carried It to above 139 and prices generally moved upwards again. Chesapeake A Ohio.
