short interest, however, was evidently too
unWieldy, and the reduction resulted
in materially better prices all along
the line. The bulls claim that the damage
by the floods in a portion of the country,
together with the actions by the Northern
Pacific and Atchison companies, had been
fully discounted and that these influences
have had their full effect is seen in the de-
sire to cover by the leading bears. Inc
traders are inclined to rely more upon the
attitude of the foreigners and this fact be-
ing ranged this morning on the long side
there was some buying on the long account
by that class of operators. The weak
holders Of stocks have been entirely shaken
out. The Changers were the leading
prominent stocks to-day and Atchison, st.
Paul, Burlington and Rock Island gave
tone to the market, the last two showing
material gains, while decline in Erie pre-
ferred was followed by full recovery.
There was more strength and activity in
the Coalers and Industrials in the after
noon, but late in the day the bears made
vicious drive at Northern Pacific prefer
red and it dropped | Is, but while the whole
list was affected by such drop the greater
portion Of the early gains were retained
and the final changes show number or
material advances. Sales 307, 81 shares.
