Beside that there is the scrip dividend amounting
to $4.64O,s21.
In addition the company guarantees the INTEREST
on S37, 600 900 of bonds of collateral lines WHICH
are not included in the foregoing statements
The 81 ock market probably never received greater
artificial support than that which was gwen
to it to-day. When the tide of local speculation
was turned three weeks ago, those VINO turheo y
were short of the stocks Of the Northern racine
system and their purchases of those stocks ~
profit on their sales gave to them no inslgnihcah'
lever upon the whole market. In yesterdays oe-
cline in those stocks they had interest or proht
but they have imagined that there was
necessity TO stop that decline, and hence
their purchases to-day of those stocks have spreaa
their interest over a greater field. They not only
checked the decline in those stocks. but made ther
final prices from i2 TO 17s higher than we're yes'er
DAYS last figures. The transactions In those three
stocks amounted to 202 800 shares out OF the dayS
total in all stocks of 100000 shares. Yet despite
those desperate efforts the market generally closed
lower than last evening. The exceptions In inc
active stocks are gains of III per cent for ST. Paul.
Central and Hudson Rochester and Pittsburg. and
Western Union. and 70 for Manitoba. Union Pacific
was specially weak and declined from 81 tn $500
COL. Taking the market a. whole the dealings
still reflect nothing more than local deal between
some of the large operators the one side and the
smart traders on the other side. The home pubic
and Europe seem to be as far away from the specua
ton as they ever were There, however, is one graft
fyiug point in the stuationstocks are held IN such
large blocks by leading spectators tnatthe declines
which have come. and perhaps may come mere
after, affect the general public little. The market
closed dull.
Government bonds were dull. but were steady Tor

fory.ye barrels in the second hour The size OF THIS
