MONEY MARK Il II.

SUNDAY sspt 4-8P ~
Up 10 the cose last night the stock market continued
active. Throughout the whole OF the week the daily
transactions were large, ard for most Of tho time a.
steadily improving prices The bears IN their anxiety 10
out out contracts had oversod the market, and the
bulls took advantage Of this put up prices. The de
nauds from the shorts has been very large, and II Is
principally the wants Of that class Of operators that
the unusual rise may be attributed There Is no demand
srom any other There o1.sde spectators
IN the market The contest ELY between the bulls
and the bears Of Wall street. and the chances are decided
LIZ favor OF the latter Everything In their avor 80
Gar u OF the stocks operated in at the Brokers'
Board concerned The prices current are as gene
.-a thing SO far above real value Of the stocks so
chat sooner later under the most favorable circun
stances prices recede to points which have hereto
fore been touched 1t useless 70 partcuarize where
there are such exceptions The money may,
FOR the moment favor holders Of stocks and prices may
even advance fraction or So but the natural tendency
of the class Of raroid stocks decay
end depreciation every thiog pershabe
3pecustion may give tempoa AIRY buoy ancy the
market but there s little operate upon-sucn limited
margin for rise, at the best-that al outside OF Wall
and that particular circle have disposition to
enter being evidently sais cornering comb
nations to the regular and legitimate spectators
The advance in stocks realized during the past week
has real ba&s AS the shorts get supplied, the de-
.mand will cease and the bulls, who buying in
large lots will find limited demand when they at
tempt TO SELL at lower prices The bears put out two
thousand shares in contracts where they take In one
thousand for cash BY doing they will get short again
distant day. but will be at higher prices and on
longer dates Holders Of stocks anxously looking
or buyers advanced rates, but they do not come.
Prices are already much inflated that there ID hardly
the possibility further rise The usual speculative
railroad stocks hold out Inducements for purchase
with the possibility Of profit beyond present points.
The risk too great for operators to take and hold
feel that Is great under Tor any length of
ime. The market very curious condition; nearly
the whole in reality seers-the bears, be.
they look for lower prices, ami the bulls because
they have stocks than they conveniently
carry easy money market and because the chances
are decidedly 10 favor Of fall The bulls In very
extraordinary position, and wish them well out Of il.
With stocks than they easily hold under the
favorable circu instances they dare not SELL for fear
of depressing the market seriously and they afraid
to buy rather unable buy oil that the bears offer,
70 keep up prices The bulls only sustain prices by
buying stock; but 1t is hard to do this when they
already have than they want This Is the actual
position Of things in the stock Market ard IL appears 70
che end come of best.
The expectation OF specie from this port last week
was quite limited, a. will be by the annexed
