which were the objects of special bear nAnipu-
Iation. The bears Immediately took advantage
OF the reactionery feeling and, aided by reali-
cations and the efforts of some Of the traders
were enabled to make q marked impression on
all the coalers except Reading and later In the
day upon some of the grangers. Reading
under favorable influences, was kept up to and
even slightly above the level of last evenings
figures, and the attention of the bears was
given entirely to the other stocks of that group
Lackawanna was the greatest sufferer, and was
closely followed by New Jersey Central and
Delaware and Hudson. The bears slackened up
their EFFORTS toward noon and prices rallied
Slowly, but on rumors of deficit In st. Paul in
stead of surplus, the bear pressure was turned
upon the grangers, and st. Paul led another
others. Hooking Valley and Tennessee Coal
were strong. Trusts, with the exception Of
Sugar. were more quiet than for some time
past, but Sugar was bought largely and resisted
successfully the efforts to cause decline IN the
early dealings. and when the pressure was re-
moved it shot up sharply, scoring the extreme
advance of about per cent, though realiza-
tons In the last hour reduced this gain materi-
ally. One really strong stock OF the regular
list was Atchison, which was taken freely upon
rumors of unexpected success in the reorgani-
zation scheme, and while the stock, after the

Louisiana Rice.

The Louisiana Planter of New Orleans SAYS
that receipts of rice still continue free, but
most Of the goods go to the store. Millers are
also reported TO be storing their clean products,
rs everybody knows that our values are below
the parity, and that a reaction must soon come.
For example, we received sample Of Rangoon
rice Il day or two ago from London. where the
value was stated to bs 1850 u 10. Half the hulls
had been removed, and the grain thus denuded
showed large percentage OF red" Such rice,
if milled here, would not reach the market at
less cost than $3.50, and we can sell better
domestic rice at 336c, or even less.
Messrs Dan Talmages Sons Il Co, by mail
from New Orleans, say of rice: THE tone of
the market is weak, owing to marked falling
away In demand Prices are now lower than
any grade of foreign and as the Atlantic coast
has no low grades, Louisiana has the field 90
herself ON all styles under 44c. Present tn
activity cannot be- of long duration, and the
prospects will then be for a higher plane of
value
