Thursdays New York papers say of
Wednesday S Stock Market: Iaaa
The Stock Market opened this morning
tolerably steady at about the closing prices
of yesterday, and throughout the session of
the First Board there were no important
changes in quotations, and a fair business
was DONE both in State Stocks and in the
speculative railroad shares. There was, as
for several days, a good demand for cash
stock to supply maturing contracts. The
scarcity of Illinois Central, New York Cen
tral, and the Border State Bonds still con-
tinued, and each of them was offered at a
large difference from cash prices and sellers
option. The various issues of the Federal
Government were very firm, and there is a
steady demand from investors for these se-
curities.
After the adjournment of the First Board
there was more disposition to sell, and prices
were marked down little, under few offer
ings on sellers option, and between the
Boards, the Stocks that have for some days
past been extremely scarce, seemed to be a
little more accessible, and this fact, together
with the Iumor from the seat of war of a
probable conflict soon, seemed to make it
dull and heavy, and cash Stocks were offered
with more freedom than for some time past.
At the Second Board the market was lower.
and with small business done prices gave
way from a 10 l per cent. Stocks were very
freely offered on sellers option, and at the
close there was no rally, but the market
closed heavy, with very little business doing.
