The stock market to-day was weaker than it
has been for some time, and the amount of
business was large All the influences at work
seemed to be of a depressing nature, though
the engagement of million in gold for EXPORT
was probably most important There was
uneasy feeling reported at Paris, and this was
reflected in London and here, and American
securities on the other side were all lower, with
considerable selling to liquidate, The squeeze
in st. Paul did not seem to have any further
effect upon the general list. and although the
stock was loaned at 1-16 per day for use, there
was plenty of stock for sale, and after opening
down nearly point, it sagg of, and tonight
is lower. The pressure to-day reached all por-
tionS of the list, and outside of grangers there
was more selling than at any previous time this
year, and declines on an unusually large bust
ness are heavy and uniform and the number of
newal of reports Of rate cutting in the west
and the alleged accusation of Judge Cooley
that the trunk lines were shading their export
rate, and were used with much effect against
the general list. All grangers were weak. but
Rock Island and Burlington and Quincy reached
lower figures than have heretofore been at
tanned, and raid was made upon Missouri Pa
cific in the afternoon. which made It one of the
weakest stocks on the list Other Gould shares
sympathized, and Manhattan, especially,
yielded very readily. Pullman led the special
ties. Memphis and Charleston was the only
one showing any strength, and that has not
been traded in for long time. San Francisco
preferred became the feature just before the
close and dropped rapidly. Lowest prices were
generally reached after 1 O'Clock, but rally
from the lowest points was ins gnificant and
the market finally closed fairly active and
heavy to weak at or near the lowest figures Of
the day. Everything, without exception, is
lower, and Pullman lost 3 per cent, Manhattan
