STOCKs-The stock market was irregu-
lar in the early trading and as a rule lower
quotations prevailed. Manhattan fell OFF
8 per cent. to 1875 and the general list
yielded I to % on light transactions. The
reduction in the posted rates of ster-
ling exchange, however, induced some
covering Oy shorts and there
was partial recovery. The rise
was checked by brisk selling
movement in Reading which carried that
stock down from l6 to l49S, the decline be-
ing accompanied by reports that the pro
posed plan of readiustment had failed; still
later, when il became known that Barring,
MacGoun & Co., had ordered $780, 600 gold
the com plexiOn OF affairs at the Stock Ex-
change underwent a complete change.
The improvement was stimulated by a
let I'D in the stringency in money, the
rate for call loans having dropped from %
TO 4a5 per cent, and by advlces from
Washington that Secretary Carlisle had
or would issue an order for the prepayment
of the government interest due July l on
the 4 per cents aud currency. The shorts
were considerably alarmed by the change
in the monetary situation and rushed Into
cover only to find that the supply of stocks
Offering was below their requirements.
