Stocks The stock m Tket was again
quiet, and presented little feature Of
special il teYest until toward the close,
when the coal stocl came into prom
inence and he volume Of business
was largely increased. The London
market, which was influenced by pros.
poets of war in tue East, reacted upon
the market here and prevented buy
ing TO certain extent, aud the gen.
eral list was rathe- heavy throughout
the day. The news of the day was
generally OF a favorable character, but
bad very little Effect upon prices. The
advances made were entirely on the
spetialties, Manhattan being most
conspicuous, it's advance at one time
being Z per cent, and a
small fraction only was lost
toward the close. Llts in the
afternoon the coal stocks were the
prominent feature aud they all adj
vancsd materially, especially Hooking
Valley and LacBawana. The advant e
ia attrit utsd to the favorable prospects
in consequence OF the formation ofthe
new bituminous pool, The Nickel
Plates continued their advance, el-
though there's is nothing new to be
said. The opening was Irregular
though generally heavy, and the
irregularity co tiuued for a short time,
when the streogth displayed by the
specislties rallied the general list.
Toward noon, however, the market
yielded aud became quiet aud so re-
NAMED until the last hour. Jersey
Central dropped over another cent
lower at / o'clock, in consequence OF
tine appointment OF the new receivers,
but the great strength Of the other
coal stocks rallied it in the next hour
