LONDON TO THE RESCUE.
Flood of Buying Orders from the Big
Town Checksthe Downward Career
of Railroad Shares-The

NEW YORK, October lS.-The stock market
was again dull to-day, but the tone of the deal
ings was in marked contrast to that of yester-
day. While the final changes are generally for
fractions, they were mostly in the direction Of
higher figures. The money question was active
in the first few minutes, but this was neutral
lied by the even buying orders from abroad,
which started the shorts to covering and COM
pfetely changed the temper of the speculation
for the time being. The anxiety over the
higher rates for money prevalent yesterday,
led to a weakening, which was made at conces-
sions from last nights figures of from u to ~
and pressure caused some further slight de-
clines in the early trading.
The sudden food of buying orders from Lon
don, however, checked the decline, and as It
was continued the shorts became frightened
and rushed to cover, which soon gave strong
trend to the market and prices materially i'm
proved before the close of the first hour.
Northern Pacific preferred was the feature
Ives, in which he stated that he owned as much
stock as before the election, and that he had
every confidence in the new board. The Trusts
were specially strong also on the announce
ment Of the application Of the American Cot
ton Oil Company for an increase in capital, with
the utterances of Mr.. Thomas leading to the
impression that the Trust was to come into the
new corporation.
after 2 o'clock, and the same tactics as usual
being employed, the rate on call was run up to
10 per cent after II o'clock, which checked the
advance, but the undertone of strength was
such that little impression was made upon
prices outside Of few specialties
The most marked movement was in St Paul
preferred, which was offered down in the
absence Of buyers, but most Of the loss was
recovered later.
In theiast hour there was renewal Of the buy
ing and undcr the lead of Missouri Pacific
material recovery took place. The close was dull
but firm at close to best prices Of the day. The
Grangers were rather heavy throughout the
day, and Burlington and St. Paul were both
subjected to considerable pressure, but with
out any effect after the early depression. The
only important changes for the day were ad-
vances. Sugar rose 2, Cotton Oil and Northern
Pacific preferred II each and Lackawanna and
Manhattan l per cent each.
The dealings in railroad bonds were devoid
of feature as usual, and on a basis Of only
S679. 600 a few important declines were scored.

VnD microscopic Cnanges In the Otl Market
Field News.
Yesterdays oil market differed in no material
respect from that of the previous day. There
was little buying in New York early, but later
that center went over entirely to the bear side,
and what it dumped was snapped up by Oil
City. 1t is limited that clique of operators on
the different exchanges are at the head of the
Oil City movement, with the object of corner
ing the stuff and forcing an advance. The only
important transaction here was by McKelvey,
who sold 10000 barrels. With this exception,
local trading was strictly professional The
range of prices was as narrow as French or
Spanish Bourbon, the opening being 1907, the
highest and closing 1OOss and the lowest 1905.
A new well is being put down at Zelienople.
1t is not far distant from the well that caused
such great excitement month ago, which was
ruined by collapse of the casing and the con-
sequent flooding of water. 1t is believed the
present well will open an extension of the Am
berson field, near Harmony and is looked upon
as an important venture. The Arbuckle well
was reported doing about 500 barrels day.
