STOCKs.-The stack market to-day was
as narrow as usual, but the animation in
fused into a few stocks by buying for the
account Of outside spectators gave the
market an active and strong appearance
aud in the few stocks which were largely
traded in substantial movements occurred.
New England again assumed q command
ing position In the market under heavy
buying, which was believed 10 be partly
for Boston and partly for Chicago account,
and while there was nothing definite
revealed 70 show the basis OF this conf
dent demand for stock. 10 was rumored
that the buyers had intelligence OF new
developments which will act favorebly
upon the stock Another active stock was
Chicago Gas, which was sold heavily in
the early morning trading, but equally
heavy buying soon rallied the stock com
pletely DiStillers also came in for q
share of buying and improved materially,
Another important feature of the day
was the strength eXhi Oited By the
RichmOrd and IVES, Point Sc
cCnUies, especially the per
cents. The meeting Of the coal agents has
had the effect Of making waiting attitude
on the C0alers, and while Reading was
very active, especially late in the day, when
the efforts 70 get il down became most
marked, it was held within a range Of l per
cent ali day long and closed within Il point
Of last nights prices, although special
pressure WAS brought 10 bear. Other Coal
erS were almost entirely neglected. The
effect Of the application for receiver for
Chicago Gas at the close OF the day
was q loss Of s per cent with the
stock firm, while various rumors
about different parties seeking
control of New England resulted in q rise
pOrtant change for the day was In Dis
tillerS, which was taken care of by the in
siders and gam OF rs per cent. for the
day was scored. Other stocks were quite
neglected, but firm temper in early deal
ings was followed by a general reaction,
but despite free realiZations in the late
trading the market closed firm at q slight
rally. Sales, $4,000. Quotations closed
