WHAT WAS DONE IN STOCKS.
Thursday. September S-p m.
There was no important movement in the stock
market to-day. IL transactions were cohsiIer-
ably less than they were yesterday, but the
buying for the short account was less urgent.
1t is matter for profound regret that the
principal buying in the last week WAS merely a
covering OF short contracts. There may have
been some touch between the alleged head OF
the bear faction and the weather. man VINO
apparently has something left Is be marketed.
In the early Dealings Ncw-Ensland rose about 2
per cent on the ridiculous suggestion that the
railroad had been leased TO the Boston ana
Maine Railroad, which had fallen into the eager
nav Of the Philadelphia and Reading; There
can be no more worlds 10 conquer. and, II 'he
Reading Railroad has secured control OF New
England by the roundabout. way. Of leasing the
Boston and Maine, il may be admitted at once
that the Reading Railroad Is the opcraths COM
pany which will manage transportation on this
side Of the Missouri River.
This il the development which hiss long been
desired. but hardly considered probable. Heading
