MOTOR STOCK'S AMAZING RISE.
New York.
Lila Lee, the film actress, accumulated a fortune in the recont amazing advance of the Maxwell motor stock, trading in which was suspended by the Stock EÌ- change because a natural corner had developed.
Class "A" stock rose from 74 dollars in January to 121 dollars on Monday, while Class "B" ove from 33 dollars to 197 doliars,
Very few made money, but hun- dreds are short and are wondering how to pay for the stock now that trading has ended.
The corner was caused by the re- adjustment which was announced in April, when the Crysler Corporation. was absorbed.
