NEW YoRK, May 25.-There has been
very decided reaction in to-day's stock
market. Prices at the opening we're to
list, with some exceptionally creator de-
clines, and after dull trading for n
quarter Of an hour there was another
decided break, with increased activity
during tho next fifteen minutes. Tho
decline was then checked, and the mar
ket became dull and stronger. This
operation was repeated several times
during the day. The declines in prices
were accompanied by increased trading,
and the rallies, which were slight, dovel-
opod in activity. In tho last half hour
there was q general rally, especially in
tho Gould stocks, and in the case of
Western Union the closing quotation Is a
shade higher than on Saturday, but with
that exception tho active list is lower
than on Saturday.
