GOVERNMENTS, STOCKS AND BONDS.
New YORK, S=It. S.-The stock market to-
day has possessed more animation than usual
of late, but the activity has been caused by
some hammering operations which gave to the
market ali the life it possessed, and in a few
stocks there sharp declines, while the re-
mainder OF the list show onlv slight changes as
a result of the days operations, though the
opening was up from z as per cent -, material
losses were atterwsrd brought about in Bur-
liugton and other Changers, Chicago gas
Union Pacific and special-ies. The market
became lore active and weaker in
afternoon, when the most material losses were
sust aimed The only stronger feature in the
room was sugar refneries which made a squirt
of per cent. on favorable runners from Wash
ington about the action upon the sugar sched-
ule. The drive was severe against late weak
stocks, and the extreme loss in Burlington was
per cent. Dealings showed a great amount of
feverIshness throughout but the downward
movement ceased only with the close of bust
ness. which was quiet but weak at about lowest
prices of the day.
Government bonds dull.
State bonds without feature.
