The event Of The day, and in fact of the
week, was the heavy engagemt Mt of gold for
export to-day, and as this had been expected in
some quar- ers to be followed immed atey by
a heavy selling movement in the stock market,
there was some disappointment over the actual
result. There was also an impression that the
exports could not be Of serious import to the
share lis in view of the strong position in
which the banks are now placed and tie atti-
tude of foreign investors and spectators was
regarded with more soliclJude. Exp rts seem
to have been followed by the usual conse-
quences of the restriction of business, with
some decline in prices, but to-day the latter
was evidently caused, not by the anxiety OF
hollers to get rid OF their stocks but by the
selling for short account, and that by the pro-
fessional element almost exclusively. The in
fluence OF this selling was only temporary, how

Gas there was little or no animation and u
smart upward movement in industrials in the
early dealings was followed by stagnation in
those shares, with some decline in railroad
stocks. After this the deprt s5ion was checked,
however, and the market showed increasing
strength throughout the remainder OF the day,
with increased activity toward the close. Late
dealings developed heavy demand for coalers
and spocalties, Reading again crossing 60,
