Yesterday. To-day.
TUESDAY. March 6-P n,

The stock speculation to-day showed little trace
of the activity which marked Yesterdays opera
tons, although prices fairly steady and early
declines were generally recovered during the
first hour. The market missed the sustaining
influence of largo short interest, and nearly all
the operators prepared to sell any further
advance rather than to add to the purchases of yes
terday. Soon after midday the fluctuations
were small and Insignificant. Later, however.
there came greater activity, and with it sharp
decline in prices which leaves most of the stocks
not only lower than they were last even
ing, but also lower than they on Saturday
night comparison of the changes from Saturday
night in the prices of six of the most active
stocks during the last. two days, which to-day
contributed 100000 shares to the total business of

ceived about noonime, that an additional 100000
gold had been withdrawn from the Bank of Eng
land for America, exerted momentarily favorable
effect upon prices but it yielded to the pressure
to sell. The market closed weak at the lowest
prices.
Government bonds were dull, and the only change
in the bids a decline of ls for the 4s Annexed
are the closing quotations.
