The market at the Second Board was quite active,
and several thousand shares Of the prominent ancies
were sold which not on the registered list. the
market continued active ser the close of the regular
session. and prices continued to advance. The market
has been Oversod, it is termed, by the bears and
their anxiety to-day to get in their shorts carried
quotations rapidly up. The movement is almost en-
rcly speculative, and ngrea degree confined to street
operators. The commission brokers complain that
orders from outsiders scarce. The absolute
abundance of money favors speculation by enabling
parties in the street in good credit TO carry any amount
of stocks. This produces a temporary scarcity of
cash stock such as we now see in Erie and Cen
tral, and forces the bears TO buy their shorts
at advancing prices. When this movement
has itr course, the shorts msinly bought
in and the Longs begin to SELL we shall zee the usus
decline which always follows an imitation in stocks.
