By i*rlrare Leased Wire. New York, Aug. 29.—With the publication of the details of yesterday's Philadelphia failure, the atock market was quick recogfalze that It had entirely exaggerated the significance of the episode. The sus pension was due neither to stock spocu Iatlon nor to the real estate boom, con sequently whatever comment there had been yesterday on the assumption that a weak spot had been disclosed In the flnan clal situation was seen today to possess no force at all. A quick recovery was In order, and It Iwran In a remarkable man ner In the early London dealings. Be fore the opening of our market, American stocks were up anywhere from a point to 2 points, with nn extreme gain of 3ft on the Canadian Pacific. These advances were reproduced consistently at the local opeulug, Canadian Pacific sellln sn extreme gnln of nearly 6 pol sharp advances In the minor affiliated stocks. For a time thereafter there was considerable pressure on the market, par ticularly In Rending. Pennsylvania and Cop per, where enormous blocks of the stock were tl remark! era! list , upblddlng of Great Northern and Northern Pacific the features. The stock market opened animated and Ir regular, bnt with most Issues showing ad vances. Pennsylvania opened on 7,000 shares at an advance of 14 per- cent. Reading’s Initial price wns% lower. Atchison ojiened at a gain of %. as against 1934 yesterday. St. Pnjil opened, ex-dividend and rights, at 1754. The sensation of the market was an advance of 44 in Canadian Pacific. The stork gained 64 net. There was wild thullng all through the first hour with 1,000-sbare orders plentiful In numerous stocks ns to create general comment. The heaviest transactions were In Reading, of which Philadelphia was a seller on an ensrmons scale throngh local houses. The stock, after opening lower, rallied to 13(4. then dropped to 1*34. but on heavy buying It quickly rallied over 2 polnta. The buying around the room was of so Impressive a character that It forced room traders to hurriedly start covering aborts »ut out nt the low levels. The feature of he trailing was that Steels were fairly grabl>ed as soon aa they were offered. Governments unchanged. Other bonds are aptlve nnd lower.
