WHAT WAS DONE IN STOCKS.


After the elimination of a large part Of the
short interest yesterday the stock market to-day
showed less vigor and more irreguarity In huctna-
tions. Some falling off in activity occurred, but
the sustained prominence Of Union Pacific enabled
a fair volume of trading TO be recorded. The
manipuiatlons In the speculation are not to De
denied, but they are puzzling N character and
therefore attractive only 10 professional operators
The not0riety achieved of late by trader 81 over
the rail" may not be deserved but ii is fact
which affords eloquent commentary upon the
nature Of the existing market Union Pacific
fell from 30 Ia 10 "a early in the morning, and
after sharp recovery TO 80 ga il ended with
net loss Of 3-s per cent at "a 3-4. The necessary
delay in formulating plan for financing this
company, of course, is utilized for the making
of fluctuations acceptable TO scalpers," however
unsettling they may be TO genuine investors
