STOCKS-There is nothing in the market
TO warrant any extended upward move
ment, other than the manipulation OF the
cliQues, and with the near approach or the
election there seems to be less and less dis
position on the part of outside operators TO
take any venture on either side Of the mar
ket. Only four stocks showed any
animation at the opening, which,
however was made generally at
slightly higher figures than those OF
last evening and only one OF them, Read
ing. continued active. Short sales in early
dealings suficed to put the entire list on q
lower plane, but some supporting orders
and a little new buying suftioed 70 put short
sellers to flight and the losses were quickly
recovered, with something In addition.
The buying was most prominent IN Read
ing, New England and distilers, while
the evidence that the movement IN Colorado
Coal has eliminated appeared early In the
day aud realizing later forced the stock
up over per cent. The strength OF tue
leaders dragged the rest of the list with
them, and prices were maintained above
level of opening throughout the day, even
though the realizing in the last hour caused
some concession. The market finally
closed quiet but still firm at Insignificant
changes from last nights figures for most
stocks. Sales POS, 400 shares. Quotations
