American Telephone jumped over six points to a new high, Pacific Lighting rose over ten, and a fifteen point surge in Boston and Maine led rail shares higher before profit taking pulled several names back. U S Steel hit a new record before retreating, with motors stocks slipping from early gains as investors digested sector movement.
