TUESDAY. Sept 24-6 r. 81.
AS compared with yesterday the general stock mar
get to-day was prolific OF less interest and fewer
transactions in the socailed active list While tho
greater number OF stocks lay IL were, becamed al
or about yesterdays prices the grangers were treated
to slant of speculative wind which carried them
considerably ahead of their neghbors, and, what is
still more i'm portant kept them there to the close o.
business In PLAIN terms both sorts OF ST. faul ana
Northwestern STOCK were from "a to per cent oet
Ter at the closing than the opening, while tho rest
sf the Market at the best, scarcely held lib own IL
10 safe, therefore, to assume that the maximum oil
jobbng interest attaches TO the granger stocks
Admitting tho correctness of this snpposition ques
lions as to It's ''why and wherefore naturally fol-
low These only be answered by process 6f rea-
,onng a knowledge OF existing facts aud good deal
,f guesswork The matter would be much simplihsd
IL Mr. Could Mr.. Keene aud other operators OF IKE
speculative calibre would make clean breast OF tner
Intentions to an inquistive public but unfortunately
they decline do Consequently the street is eit
10 make it's way by such stray rays Of light as 1a
from what they think they see In these gentlemen's
operations, or otherwise Grope in darkness. Fhey
believe themselves TO be- however pretty certain OF
three lacts-drst that the ST. Paul preferred shares
are cons derabiy oversod second, that the company
will declare 31s per cont dividend upon the same
and third that Gould pursuing Mr.. Keene
fwhom they believe TO be largely shorty with
stick that may less sharp. AS Is the case
In all tran upon the stock Exchange tho bulk
OF today's speculation was founded upon guessworK,
aud IL SO happened that the prevailing opinion, at
least so far as the grangers concerned, pointed
20 higher figures. 1t is not to be understood, how
ever that looked for advance unrestricted to these
stocks only, The general sentiment OF tho Board
roon as we'll OF part of the public as interests
itself in Stock Exchange securities, is favorable 10
belief In higher values shortly TO be made.
