The Market was Very Narrow One at the
 Exchange.

Exchange.
 New York, Nov. 23.-It was very nar- row market at the stock exchange to- day. It was noticed during the day that brokers of the leading bear opera tors were picking up stocks. and It was thought that the breaks in American Sugar, Chicago Gas, Lead and North west were brought about for the pur- pose of facilitating the covering move ment in other parts of the list. The buying for the short account was espec- ially pronounced in the case of St. Paul, about 12,OOO shares having been taken, it is alleged, for a prominent operator. The firmness of the grangers In the early trading was all the more notice- able because of the poor October state ment of the Northwest road, the loss in gross earnings having amounted to $734,OOO.
 The general belief that the bond issue will be heavily over-subscribed and that the government will thus be en- abled to increase its gold reserve by $3O, 100000 or $4O,0OO,OOO was the main reason for the covering movement There were, however, some weak spots to the market. notably in American Sugar, Chicago Gas, Reading, Lead, Distillers, Cordage guaranteed, and Northwest. American Sugar dropped 1A to STA, Chicago Gas IFS to 71%, %,Lead 2 to Ss%, Distillers F to S%, Cordage guaranteed to 25, and Northwest 15s to 97B. Sugar was affected by the re- ports of poor business and fears of con- gressional interference. The weakness of Chicago Gas and Lead was ascertain ed to manipulation by the pool in these specialties, and the heaviness of Cordage to the closing out of an old bull ac- count. Northwest was sold on a belief that the directors will follow the policy outlined by the Burlington and Quincy, and reduce the dividend rate. Reading weakened on talk of foreclosure and Philadelphia sold the stock down to 16%.
 Near the close Southern Railway com mon and preferred moved up on a report that block of the securities had been placed abroad and that the stock will be listed in London. An encouraging feature of the situation was the drop in sterling exchange at the close due to more liberal drawings by bankers in anticipation of heavy foreign purchases of bonds. Speculation closed steady. The general list shows net losses of A to per cent, ChicagoGas leading Lead lost 1A and Cordage preferred %. Pull man gained 13s per cent.
 Railway and miscellaneous bonds were weaker. Sales were $1, ,O23,00O
