The stock market to-day was less active,
especially after the first half hour, than on any
day for a week past and while there was some
thing of a boom in the early dealings, slowly
sagging market followed until tine last hour
when rally occurred, which, however left
prices as rule fractonally lower than they
were on Saturday. The strength shown In the
market during the past week seemed to have
been left over for to-day at the opening, London
figures not only coming higher before the Open
ing, but foreigners sent liberal orders to buy,
which were supplemented by large purchases
by commission houses. The business done in
the first half hour was equal to anything seen
during the rise, but the early demand was soon
satisfied, and at higher prices realizatons again
became very large, and bears, taking advantage
of this. hammered the list in spots and sue
ceeded in bringing about material declines in
some stocks They used the fact that higher
was balanced by the fact that there was no
scarcity of money at ruling rates, which to-day
we're not exorbitant, the market closing at
per cent. There were some specially strong
snors in the list, among which wheeling and
lake Erie preferred was conspicuous followed
by Texas Pacific. Oregon Transcontinental, and
some specialties. In the early portion OF the

Gay was sudden and sharp rise in Colorado
Coal from STA to 81, though all of the improve
ment could not be held and the stock sacged
away with the rest of the list though it retained
some OF the gain. Coal stocks were compare
lively neglected, with the exception of Reading
and that stock was supported by the impression
that the companies will continue to restrict
production 10 the needs of trade and prices will
be slowly advanced. The aspect of the money
market was much more favorable toward the
close. and this induced considerable covering OF
shorts, with more new buying IN the last hour

something better than the lowest prices of the
day. Final changes are quite irregular, but de-
