STATE OF THE STOCK MARKET
The stock market to-day was quiet, and con-
sidering the pending uncertainties Of the labor
troubles developed remarkable strength One
more point is added to the sufficient evidence
already furnished that stocks are not In wall
Street in speculative hands, as they formerly were.
There news Of q definite character concern
ing the engineers strike and all opinions concern
ing its probable outcome were nothing more than
simple Impressions While there Is nothing yet in
the situation to induce bull' speculation, there
to-day general appreciation in values for
stock because yesterdays short sellers were
weak for American railways by orders from this
side to help making market here
on which short" stocks could be easily
covered. Tie scheme failed, as 1t has
done many times before. The prices for American
railways are made by purchases and sales at the
Ncw-Yorl1 Stock Exchange 1t always has proved
to be waste of labor expense and ammunition
to attempt to affect prices materially at the New.
York Stock Exchange by an early manipulation OF
ten share lots at the London Stock Exchange. One
Of the humorous incidents of the day was Chicago
telegram that the Chicago, Burlington and QUINCY
Railroad, which for week back has been com
PEELED by the strike to refuse to receive any freight
had made further cut In rates. Every reported
move Of Western railroad officials and by their
Stock Exchange allies points to desperation. And
yet the stocks they seek to purchase do not come
to market. The current events and the course or
market prices significant reminders OF the fact
that sellers of stocks during former great railroad
strikes repurchased them at much higher figures,
only because they were compelled to do so: they
never saw profit on their sales. To-day's trans
actions were only little more than half Of what
Yesterdays were, but the recovery In prices was
general and in many instances exceeded yesterdays
decline. Missouri Pacific and Manhattan Elevated
stocks again were noticeable for their strength.
The market closed quiet and strong
