TIE WEATHER IN RICHMOND YESTERDAY was
NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.

NEW YORR, May ei.--The stock market Was
again very active and feVerish to-day, with q
general downward tendency, though 1t Was not
unth me last few minutes OF business, when
determined raid was mado upon the few vulner-
able points In the list. that any material impress
elon was made upon values. There we're many
different influences which had a bearing upon
the couIse OF prices, and while tho general list
suffered, still from the reaizatoDs on long stock,
the deals Ia Richmond and West Point. Cleve-
land, Cincinnati. Chicago and ST. Louis, aud
AtchisOn made those stocks prominent in the
dealings. aud the decision which throws the
sugar case out OF court Was factor In the early
rlse In sugar renneres. The money market
started out With per cent rates, but nnslly
closed at Z, and there was no scarcity Of money
during The Gay at ruling rates. Tho plan OF the
Richmond and West Point makes rights
on tho stock worth about IL per cent,
and the deal caused q lively trading In the
stock, tho dealings running up 10 over 100000
shares. which has not been done in long time
IN any stock. London was again a seller this
morning, aud with the early figures from Lon
don generally lower, there was weak and
teVereh opening, which after that limo fire.
quently changed It's tone through the day. But
the general course OF prices was downward, and
the best prices were generally made at the
opening except in q few stocks which were in
hnenced by particular means. and the lowest
were almost invariably those Of the close. The
advance In sugar and Richmond ami West
Point during the early dealings we're marked.
but Atchison was weak from tho outset, NOT
outstanding the facts that the pending
contamination Of It's acquisition OF St
Louis AMI san Francisco and the final
abandonment Of the voting trust were
regarded In a very favorable light. The
threatened war with Missouri Pacihc over
shddJwed all favorable factors and the stock
dragged down the Changers, although North
western was a noted exception. The progress
made In the downward direction was small, how
ever, until the last few minutes OF business.
when most vigorous raid called prices of
rapidly especially IN sugar, Richmond and West
Point aud some other prominent stocks. The
market closed very active, decidedly weak, at
lowest prices. Sales-Listed All 900 and unlisted
122,0i0 shares.
