were $4,000 shares. and OF railway and

dealings to-day were practically confined
to a half dozen or so stocks. AT the
start, American Sugar doomed into promi-
ncnce and rose nearly point on the

mean-ng posiponement OF the action
on the Wilson bill. The rise in Sugar
led to a fractional Improvement III the
general market, but Chicago Gas then
de, eloped weakness, declining 10 GA,
and the early gain was practically lost.
D. iaware and Hudson was another weak
spot. falling from 40 10 1854. The
statement by Director Spencer that he
would not oppose the plan OF the present
management in the matter Of the new
stock issue led TO a decline. for the rea-
son that there is no longer any demand
for the stock for election purpose.
General Electric was heavy, declining
IL. The Changers, COalers, and the
Southwestern were all shade weaker.
but there was no special change in
prices. Compared with yesterdays final
figures the usually active stocks show
losses Of ISG1s per cent. outside OF Della
