was very marked change in
the temper of the stock speculation TO-
day, and the entire list. with the excep-
ton of the grangers and the Southwest
ern stocks, advanced materially, the
upward movement being steady and
meeting with hardly check through
out the day. This was on the revulsion
of feeling from the scare of yesterday,
and, although the situation abroad may
be bad enough, it is evidently not so
bad as was reported yesterday, and the
fact begins to be apparent that there is
little to be feared by the collapse in this
country. The buying to-day was of the
best character, London leading off with
liberal purchases of all of its favOrites,
while Chicago did not send the batch of
disQuieting reports which it has been
also covered heavily in the general
list, although in the grangers dSouth-
westerns it is doubtful if the short in
tereSt has been reduced at all by the
transactions of the day. The only real
piece of news calculated to affect
the list unfavOrably was the report of
the Burlington Il Quincy. which was
something worse than had been eX-
pected, and the issue was the signal for
another drive at the stocks mentioned,
although Rock Island was the principal
sufferer. Missouri Pacific was the only
strong spot among the roads in that re-
giOn, and il is one of the leaders in
showing marked advance this even
ing on report that Mr.. Gould's visit to
the southwest was in part in regard to
movement to bring about better rela-
tiOnS among the roads in that
section. The improvement among
the other stocks was very uniform
and steady, although In many cases
the losses were not fully recovered.
The most pronounced gains, as usual,
were among the specialties; and Man.
haitian, Pullman and some others,
especially i'll the last hour, became very
strong. In the last hour several special
ties came to the front, and: the highest
prices of the day were reached in all
departments of the list, and the market
closed active and strong at the top
figures. Everything on the list is higher,
however, and Manhattan rose 2sl, Mis-

Northwestern n; st. Paul, Union Pa
citic and Norfolk&Western preferred 3
each; Rock Island, Pullman and West
ernUnion per cent, and the others frac-
tional amounts. The railroad market
was again quiet and failed to respond
to the strength or animation in the
share list. The sales of all issues were
only 81, 235, 600, but out of that amount
Denver u Rio Grande Western assented
bonds contributed $4,000 and the
Texas Pacific second incomes Sill, ZOO.
There was no decided tone to the deal
ings, but fluctuations were small, eX-
cept in few issues. and the important
changes are few in number and fairly
divided between gains and losses. The
advances include Lake Shore dividend,
2 to 1874; Utah Southern extension rs,
to 107. Denver & Rio Grande firsts
lost 2 at 120, and Beach Greek firsts, 90
to 80. Government bonds have been
dull and steady. State bonds have been
dull and steady
