GOVERNMENTS, STOCKS AND BONDS.
NEW YORK, May The stock market to-day
presented about the same amount of business as
yesterday, but the reactionary temper was re-
placed by more confident feeling notwith-
standing that professional traders were still
working for further resction. There was
great irregularity in the market, however and
portion OF the list was strong while another
portion was decidedly weak, and the course of
prices was subjected to sudden and sharp
changes throughout. Union Pacific was the
feature OF early dealing, and it ad-
vanced nearly IL per cent; Oregon
Transcontinental continued its upward move
ment; AtchisoD was especially weak in early
dealings, and Chicago gas continued to decline
being apparently without support; coaI stocks
were quiet with the exception of Delaware and
hudson, which lost some of its recent advance
ana is the only stock on the list showing any
material loss tonight. frmer tone afterward
prevailed, and best prices were reached toward
noon and some improvement was L. the
market finally closing active and firm, generally
at small fractional gains over last nights
figures. Union Pacific is up ~, Oregon Trans
contlnentrl, IA, and Reading, Ia; while Della
ware and Hudson is ~ lower.
