The Market Dull Until the Last Hour -PronOunced Strength Displayed in the Coal Stocks.
NEW YORK, October 13


 Prices of stocks this morning were only slight ly changed from those of last evening, but there was 8 marked demand and the shorts made a drive at the list with material result. The course of the market was soon changed under the stimulus of lower figures and sugar, Rock Island, Louisville, Chicago Gas and Atchison were prominent in the advance which followed. After time covering operations went on more slowly and dullness characterized the dealings; Louisville raided and retired 1A per cent, while the rest of the list was kept within narrow limits. A firm tone gradually overspread the market during the afternoon, while little or no feature was seen in the trading until the last hour, when coal stocks displayed pronounced | strength, and were the only shares which showed material change at the close. The rest of the market failed torespond to the spurt, and the close was quiet and dull but firm generally, at only slight changes from first prices. Railroad bonds were dull. Prices were held firm, however, and the final changes of note are generally advances after a featureless day. The sales reached $732, 900.
