TIE downward movement of tho Stock market was
not arref ed to-day and neary everything on the t
shared in the depression. Nearly every one seems 70
be taken by-surprise a. decline which comes directly
n opposioa to the Money market and to the natural
tendency of speculation. The secret of the whole
natter s doubtless thet some OF the leading spirits at
.he Sock Exchange whose support has been quite
essena. in maintaining prices, have quietly sod Out
large portion Of tler stocks and are Low Indifferent
spectators or 1esro1e OF fs thai they may come 10
agsin il the speculative arena. Others taking the
cue from these operations, have v.ntured upon mod
crate lines Of short stock the probabilities OF de-
cce and thus the st-ersh ~ the market l. sudieny
affected and prices ere . - the support of outside
buvers AT the Fir,t Eoarl the sales nearly e' the
Leading stocks were at material decline nom closing
prics Of Yesterday New-York Central opened at 92l
and mn down 20 Oh in concluding sales. Erie was
messed freely ON the market and from % went down to
81 with scarcely check on the way. Hudson River
went TO 81; Michigan Southern to 2S; Toledo to 49!,
and Rock Island TO 81. No stocks OF prominence,
With the exception of Michigan Central Cary and La
rosse ESCAPED the ruling feature of the hour which
seemed to be % hasten out othe faIces a rapidly as
nossible. In the afternoon the same declining
tendency prevailed, general thing, but was less
marked than in the morning. Nsw-f0rk Central,
CaLna and Rock Island were slightly hrmer; but Tor
Erie Hudson Biyer and Toledo the market was still
lever. The Bond maEke. was not much affected
during the day, but business was less extensive thah
usrs' Afer the Second Board when the leading
operators had left the street. the market broke 10
points materially lower than any which had previously
rule during the day, and !Saure qp peH' was the
moving principle among outside operators Erie sold
down as low as Dol but was aerward little hrmer,
sd closed at 29s bill. NewYork Central sold in con-
siderable lots at 80, which the bidding pnce at
the close and Rock Island dealt out IN moderate
| lots g. So. For Reading the last bid was COZ;
for Michigan Southern p, Gal9us %, Hudson River
800, S. Perhaps there has never been time in the
history OF Stock speculation when II would be more
difficult to account for important movement II the
market than for the dee Of Monday and to-day.
Instead Of suggesting depression everything usually
u-eed in tsvor OF rising market hes existed in strong
f,.ce-pot only The present and prospective condl-
lion of the Money market but in the items o! foreign
intelligence and IN the disposition Of the public to Ell
gage in Stock transactions. These facts are 80 self
evident that We are naturally led 10 expect me erel
rebound from the extreme points o. depression
which is - inconsisten. wih the Money market
AMI the tendency Of speculation. ~ no time since the
rise comm encei have outsiders taken so much interest
