The Stock market still exhibits downward tendency
quite as marked to-day at any time since the re-
action commenced At the morning session, with the

traon on the Market but il had little or no sus-
tanning element from the bulls it gradually settled by
its own gravity. The purchases were mostly 10
cover shorts the line Of which must be largely
reduced. There seems to DO lack of persistent
courage in the movements of both speculative factions
in the street. snd the consequence Is settling down
Of prices with occasional spasms Of activity and hrm'
ness The decline in Reading, which sold as low as
81 during tho day. bad undoubtedly depressing elect
upon the general market The decline is the result OF
considerable sales Of stock by Philadelphia operators,
who are not satisfied with tho figures OF the annual
report snd the condition of the Company. There was
some recovery in this stock at the Second Board and it
closed al 3el against 10 yesterday. AT the Second
Board Central lost its frnness AID sold as low rs

ninety. The whole market heavy, with unusual
