STOCKS STRONG AND UNSETTLED.
The stock market was strong in sympathy with
New York Central, which nuctuated between 99I
and 1907, closing at 100. The early advance to
100H brought out heavy sales to realize, under

general recovery and the market closed strong
again. The rise In Central late in the day was due

scrip dividend in the interval to Monday morning.
The other changes were not Of moment outside OF
Pacific Mail and Western Union, and were mostly
