The market opened lower prices for nearly all OF
the leading stocks and there not only some dspo-
sition TO realize but evidently stronger movementon
the mart of the short interest to arrest the rising tide
and 10 turn it, If possible in contrary direction The
appearance of another sensation editorial in tie col
umns of The Times upon stock speculation, prepared
the street for the attack which followed but under all
of these circumstances the market sustained the shock
remarkably well, and, although prices were marked
down from to y cent in some instances the absop-
ton of ash stock was very large and the feature on
the calls generally rsllyiDg tendency at the close
of each the rsi sales generally proving the lowest Of
the session. The moot important decline
was in Illinois Central, which had advanced
very rapidly for several days. From SO.
at the start the price fell off to "a, at which
the stock closed in demand afterward ralying in pri
yate sales to S43. Erie underwent decline OF nearly
the came amount falling TO 2S, with moderate Sales
Hudson River, Reading Michigan Central, Michigan
Southern Toledo and Chicago Burlington and Quincy
declined about per teach with larger transactions,
but in other stocks the changes were unimportant ex
cept in Cumberland, which, contrary to the general
direction Of the market took decided start and went
up q per cent. For Railway Bonds the market was
strong throughout, and in some instances further
decided advance was established. Terre Haute and
Alton, Cd mortgage, jumped up per cent; Michigan
Southern Let mortgage, per cent; and the Sinking
Funds advanced I. In State Stocks the business was
moderate, with a slight decline in Missouris and
abou. the came advance In Tennessees. Immediately
after the Board the market became frmer and prices
were q shade better than the closing prices OF the
Board but this improvement lost in the irregular
dealings at the street corners as the day ADVANCED.
There was no Second Board and as the operators dis
IN, kipo dpu
quotations in the guerilla warfare of the street. The
reaction established in the days business is quite in
harmony with the views of the conservative bulls of
the Board who, feeling great confidence in the future
of the MAJ ket prefer TO with less fever and
excitement, and at pace less rapid than that which
has governed the movements Of the past week. The
time is clofe at hard when the railways of
the West and their connections with the
seaboard will prove whether the calculations in regard
to the Autumn business are wellfounded or not The
returns thus far for the rtt week in August come in
even better than the estimates and this result before the
ctop il fairly harvested indicates that the traffic will
fully equal if not very much exceed, general antcipa
