The following observations on the transactions in
the financial market Saturday, together with open
ing highest lowest, and closing quotations, are fur
nished by the banking house of h D. Cooke jr d Co.,
Ile9 street, Washington, d. C.:
As is usually the case when a business day comes
between two holidays, the case Saturday, the
trading ION Change" very dull and insignificant
OIL that day Business did not really begin until after
eleven o'clock and in the absence of any runors that
might affect prices the trading exceedingly life
less and confined the chickering's of room traders"
About one o'clock rumOr found its way the street
10 the effect that the freight pool had broken. This
report was not backed by proper confirmation, but
nevertheless the bears TOOK advantage at the on dit
TO inaugurate weakening of prices, which was quite
successful for few hours but scarcely changed the
current prices enough TO merit attention. Money
WAS so freely offered that later when it wasscovered
that the "pOolspilng' rumor lacked confirmation,
the market took turn in the opposite direction, clos
ing rather firm.
Money easy at 465 per cent
