day bills and 1854 for demand. The stock
market was active and weak in the forenoon
to-day, but recovered somewhat later becom-
ing quiet to dull. The general list was dull
within narrow range, and all the character
displayed was even a few stocks. among
which Reading, Missouri Pacific, st. Paul and
Union Pacific were most prominent. The
continued weakness in Missouri Pacific is the
main factor in keeping the market quiet.
There was fresh drive against the stock
port in 1t, jumped on it and its price was
broken per cent. The movement extended
to other stocks and Reading became weak,
though its loss was small in comparison with
Missouri Pacific. The other Gould proper
ties were weak and feyerish, but never be-
came prominent London was seller this
morning which also encouraged the bears
and first sales were made on heavy bust
ness at from 16G.5s per cent below Saturdays
final figures. Other fractional losses were
sustained in the first hour, but the interest
centered in Missouri Pacific and Reading.
The weakness disappeared after the first
hour, however, and most of the losses in the
general list were recovered and Union Pa
cihc became the strong feature, moving I'D
materially on the renewal of the stories of
favorable action by congress. The market

however, Rock Island came to the front de-
clining about 3 per cent, the old story of
