New YORK. Nov 1.-THE stock market
was quiet to-day, but in the main displayed a
strong tone. acting in a manner very salts
factory to the bulls and while there was still
considerable covering of shorts. there was
also some new buying. which gave encour-
agement as to the immediate future of prices
The coal shares were the only weak point in
the list, while the induslrials were the strong
group and distillers was the special feature
of the trading. Outside interests did very
little i'll the market, but Boston bought Atch-
ison, ana London was Il moderate seller of
the specialties toward the close.
The influence of the operations was slight
however. against the buying of the grangers
apparently for the West. and the support
which the covering operations gave 70 the
general list. Opening prices were generally
slight fractions better than those of last
evening" and firm tone was Immediately
developed. Notwithstanding the heayinesS of
the coaers. which in Delaware d Hudson
developed into positive weakness under con-
tinued pressure to sell. The stock dropped
suddenly from 123l2 to 12iI2, but later recoy-
cred almost the whole loss.
In the meantime prices rose all over the
list and dlstillers were pushed up from 55 to
56l2, but settled back TO IS at the close, which.
however, was net gain of | "a per cent, be-
ing the only material change for the day

Burlington was the active feature after Atch-
son and Reading, but all of these shares were
moved within the narrowest limits and show
only slight changes for The day. The market
financially closed quiet and firm at about the
best figures.
The Post says: In the first hour the sho rt

short interest of respectable proportions in
the market as comparison of bust
ness during and since last weeks bear

has had to cover at loss. In the coal stocks
there has doubtless been a profit to bear
operators. The statement has been made
by one or two financial writer's that there
was no short interest there, which is absurd.
