NEW YORK STOCK MARKET

NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
NEW YORK, September 1.-Speculatlon
at the Stock Exchange was quiet, the sales
having amounted to only 5000 shares. Of
which 34,100 were American Sugar. This
stock was again pressed for sale. and fell
from Io4z. to l0Sss. Efforts are being
made to force the stock to n still lower
level, and all sorts of stories are being
circulated to bring this about. The promi-
nent sellers of the stock appeared to bs
much disturbed as TO the future Of the
company. and interviews are quite pessi-
mistic. A good deal is being said about
insiders getting out because Of the fear
Of adverse legislation in Congress next
winter. II Is safe to assume. however.
that the present manipulators Of the stock
will have changed their position at least a
dozen times before the first Monday IN
December, and too much credence should
not be placed In the expressions OF bears
at this time. Toward the close the stock
recovered most Of its early loss and LETT
off at 1924.
Chicago Gas was also heavy, and fell
Ia. to 1874. the lowest point or the week.
Reports from Chicago that the HYDE. PARK
Company had cut rates weakened the
stock. The other Industrials ruled quiet
and firm.
The railway group and Western Union.
while quiet, are very firm. Louisville and
Nashville advanced to 57A. Northern Pa
