'EARS ACTIVE In NEW ENGLAND.
RAILROAD BONDS RULE BUOYANT

NEW YORK, Aug 22-The stock market
to-day was narrow, Reading, New England,
Rock Island and Atchison monopolizing the
greater part of the business among railroad
shares, and Lead and Sugar that in the in
dustrials, while all the important move
ments of the day were in these stocks. The
market this morning showed considerable
strength and confidence at the opening,
which was made at prices half per cent
better than Saturday as rule, while
Sugar was up N per cent
The bears were active and aggres-
siye in New England, however, and q
drop of u in that stock, aided by free real
izing in Sugar and corresponding fall,
checked the advancing tendency in the
general list, and small fractional concessions
marked the trading of the first half hour.
Then the urgent demand to cover shorts in
the grangers sent Rock Island up about 1
per cent, and the manipulation of Lead,
which sent its price up about per cent
before the close, turned the course OF prices
and an upward movement was inaugurated
soon which met with no real setback during
the rest of the session.
All the coalers made substantial advances
though Reading was the only one showing
any activity. The decision against the
Texas Railroad Commissioners served to
stimulate q sharp upward movement in the
