SECOND BOARD.
FRIDAY, Nov. 29-P. N.

| FRIDAY, Nov. 29-P.s.
There were no very marked features in the Stock
market this morning, but rather more confidence in
the dealings at the opening. The Mason and Slidell
panic has subsidized and the weakness OF the rates of
exchange has given operators for the rise confidence
that the danger Of specie shipment is not mmi-
nent. The dealings not to an important extent
and were mostly for cash or regular The promi'
nent shorts have covered their contracts, and do not
appear disposed TO put out lines TO any extent,
while the bull movement was inactive and what
strength the market possessed was inartfcia To-
ward the close of the session the quotations were
weaker, but still considerably higher than on
Wednesday. The supply of stock in the street Is
not large, and q moderate demand advances prices
The fall of the last ten days has shaken stocks out OF
weak into strong hands who are able TO hold for a
rice, and to whom the shorts at the last moment
must apply The market under the recent panic was
largely oyersold, and although in many descrip
tons the oversales have been recovered from,
vet in others TIE maurities Of contracts have been
only postponed by borrowing stock. Deliveries OF
Galena and Central are especially difficult, and
promise to be still more so. The advces from the
South were encouraging to-day, and the street has
ami ed at the conclusion that although the press oil
England may buster when they hear of the search
Of the Trent, the Government will view the
matter calmly and will ask explanations in an AMIGA
Die manner which will be met by Mr.. Lincoln in
similar spirit. We know that this If the opinion OF
Lord Lyons although he expresses no positive views
upon the subject. After tie Board the quotations
were stronger than at the close of the session. and at
the Second Board the tendency was upward, with
moderate amount Of transactions. After the Board
the market wac very strong at an advance, with but
few stocks offered. The favorite stocks were Pacific
Mail Erie Preferred, and Gslens. The former sold
at 50, against S6J on Wednesday. Gaena touched
~ on purchases by the shorts, an advance OF u
cent Erie Preferred wac So at the Second Board,
but was sold late in the day at So. The gross re-
cepts of this road are stated TO reach 81 100000
for November, the largest amount ever taken in one
mouth Central closed at 794 bid. The cur
rent traffic of this road was never exceeded
Government securities are steady but not active.
The banks are feeding the market steadily with these
securities and consequently injure the sale not only
of the 6 p cents, but of the 7.30 y cent Treas
ury notes. 1t would be a much better policy for
these institutions to buy 100000 Of these stocks
than 10 allow the quotations to drag as they do. An
exhibition of confidence like this would be infectious
and bring in new buyers. the q cents were sus-
tanned at rate par, the sale of the 73O cents
would be largely increased At the close the market
was very strong at the following quotations: United

Tie advance in foreign bills is 6zzle, and the de-
mand for the steamer tomorrow is very light. Some
drawers are asking 1921 for Sterling, but no business
of importance would be done at 100 for bankers zig
natures. The demand for the last steamer appears
