ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATcH.l
NEW YORK, Dec. 27.-A moderate
volume of business on the Stock Exchange
to-day resulted in generally higher prices.
A slightly easier market for sterling ex-
change, normal rates for money on call
and two or three special movements,
notably in Manhattan Railway and In
New England, were apparently the causes
for the improvement Local traders take
hopeful view of the market in the lmme-
diate future because of the magnitude OF
the short interest Should the rates for
sterling advance again toward the close Of
the week and gold be taken for export the
bearish feeling will doubtless return.
For the first time in several years Man.
haitian Railway surpassed all other stocks in
point of activity. 1t closed 4 per cent
higher than on Saturday, though at a re-
action of l Il per cent from the highest price.
The chances are that the activity in New
York and New England and New York and
Northern preferred was due to speculative
operations, and that the advance in Man
haitian is the result of steady absorption
of the stock by capitalists who foresee the
1dllulc Vi luC aplO b1dnSlb SOAhAlAsslOhClS
scheme for an underground railroad and
the probability that such failure will open
the way for the Manhattan Company to ex-
tend its system.
Gas stocks and the industrials were note
worthy features. Both Chicago and Con-
solidsted Gas were exceptionally strong at
material net advances OF the industrials
Distilling and Cattle Feeding was the most
active and also scored the greatest net gain.
In the general list it is TO be noted that
number of stocks made decided progress
toward higher prices on very slight transac-
tions. These were Western Union, Louis
Vile ana Nashville and Lacl1awanna.
Northern Pacific pre- erred was conspicu-
ously heavy throughout and was the
only stock actively dealt in that closed
lower than on Saturday. The gross earnings
OF the company as reported weekly are not
only smaller than they were a year ago,
when the traffic returns were unusually
light, put even smaller than two years ago,
when the company was operating over 700
miles less road than at present. This condi-
tion of affairs Is manifesty discouraging
to those who are endenvoring to hold up the
price of the stock, yet not more so than the
steady decline in the per cent consolidated
bonds of the company.
The closing was in the main firm, put
final prices were not Up to the best re-
corded.

ESPECIAL FROM DOW. JoyrsAoo.

NEW YORK, Dec. 27-The covering of shorts
by those who believe in probable action on
the part of Secretary Foster and a continu-
ance OF the buying in Manhattan set the tone
TO the market. 1t was noticed that stocks re-
sponded very readily to covering purchases
and quite a bullish feeling developed from
this. The avoidance of q shipment of gold
practically arranged for last week accentu-
ated the bull feeling. 1t was felt, however,
that there was very little special news be-
hind the advance in Manhattan beyond the
probability that there would be no bid for
the rapid transit franchise on the 29th and
that anything done in that direction would
have to be done by the Manhattan. 1t was
also claimed by bulls of the stock that it
was selling as it had sold during Gould's
lifetime, considerably below its real value.
Reading advanced very quickly and the
bears attempted no demonstration. Its
arrangement with the Finance Company OF
Pennsylvania, which will in future act as its
fiscal agent, was reckoned a bull point, and
SO also was the extreme probability that
Whatever was paid on the incomes would be
paid in cash, although the full dividend on
thirds might not be paid. Reading, how
ever, is said to be short of rolling stock and
it is thought that there may be trouble in
connection with re-arrangements of rela-
tions with the Delaware and hudson and the
Lackawanna, which will have to be made
early in the year.
pronounced character in the general list,
which became inactive Immediately after
the mornings advance. Several stocks
however, were in good demand in the loan
crowd, notably Burlington. Reading and st.
Paul, all of which loaned below money
rates.
The announcement that Secretary Foster
would not offer any bonds, and saw no
necessity therefor was not regarded by the
best authorities as favorable. but the room
considered it evidence that the situation
was improved in some way.
New Englands advance vas considered
by those who had watched the stock as lust
whaU might have been expected and is be-
neved to be que to demonstrat ton against
the short interest, which is known to he
large, the basis OF this being the tact that a
portion OF the traffic formerly sent by the
Connecticut River road over the New Haven
will be delivered 20 the New England and
New York and Northern.
Fresh selling of Northern Pacific bonds
caused the weakness in tile preferred. 1t is
thought that control of the Ioad is being
sought by some parties, probably in the in
terest of the Great Northern.
The exchange market has been remark
ably nrm, the supply OF bills to-day being
the largest known for months.
It is possible that gold may be exported
Saturday.
Some activity in money is looked for this
week.
