the early part OF the afternoon the market
was irregular aud unsettled, but the general
tendency was toward down figures. In late

Reading, New York Central, Lake Shore,
and ST. Paul were also conspicuous
in the decline. The market closed weak.
The Commercial Bulletin says: "There was a
food of rumors about an early settlement OF
the railroad war, and these at times gave the
market a fitful strength, but in the afternoon
the reports in reference 10 a settlement were
denied in a way which left little reason for
believing them, and what had been en- al
rnately strong and weak market became
decidedly weak, and, although closing at a
fractional recovery, prices were, as the result
of the whole days fluctuations, 2(G39 per
cent. lower than at the close yesterday"
