BEARS SHOW GREAT ACTIVITY.


By the grace Of railroad oficials-the trustees
Of other peoples property-the " bear element
continues to be an important factor in the
limited stock speculation that exists. In fact,
regarded from a speculative point. all the energy
and active forces are enlisted on that side Of
the account. Scarcely a railroad official from
the Atlantic to the Pacific opens his mouth
except to give encouragement 10 sell stocks
Short and yet there is from the same sources
q wailful chorus Of lack of equipment TO handle
the business Offering. 1t is strange and a
strained anomaly that is presented to the invest
ment holders of securities. But the investors
of to-day better educated than their prototypes
of ten years ago, and being more numerous
than they, are less affected by official outgiv-
ings intended solely for effect on the stock mar
ket
This together with the comparatively small
speculative holdings Of stocks is why the sem
sational and spasmodic movements in freight
rates have SO little effect on market values.
Despite all official denials at Philadelphia and
New-Yorlk there is good evidence that large
investment interest has uttered defiant pro-
test against recent reductions in freight rates,
something after the fashion of the protest
entered against the st. Paul management last
September II is certain that the protest VIII
be needed. So far as surface reports Of the stu
alton were concerned there was nothing to-day
extend to 10 per cent as to per cent. Tho
bears" issued, through their local organ,
schedule of rates for local traffic on the Eastern
trunk lines; but the railroads have not yet
accepted 1t.
There was not a single encouraging item OF
news p and yet the stock market ruled firm
at better than last evenings prices. IL was
q dull market in which large amounts OF stock
could neither be purchased nor sold 10 the cur,
rent quotations, but it was firm market and
under its surface full of encouragement to
holders Of securities. 1t was firm despite efforts
to make it look weak. A lack OF speculative
interest on the bull' side leaves the market
without other resistance TO bear attacks than
that which comes from absorption and bear
exhaustion. The market closed dull and steady.
