NEW YORK. Sept. 81.
The reduction in the Rock Island divi-
dend gave a decided set back to tho market
today and naturally the grangers were the
center of interest and Weakness The
steadier tone in theindust1ials reflected
the abatement of liquidation and the dis
position to cover shorts while otherwise
the list was quiet and fairly well held. No
statement or explanation has yet been re-
ceiSed to accompany the announcement of
the Rock Island dividend and hence there
is no means of judging whether the action
was really prudent or the straining of a
conservative policy. The effect naturally
is unfavorable to sentiment and tends to
offset the influence of the maintenance of
regular dividends on other western roads,
There is a revival of discussion as to the
prospects of the Western roads on account
ofsthe deficient corn crop and there may be
hesitation ito operate until further earn
ing to give some clearer Indication of prob
able results in the long run. But mean
time trade indications continue to be en-
couraging and point to steady progress in
the expansion of business. With promise
of increased traffic on account of the ex-
pansion of business we do not see reason
for taking a gloomy view of market move
ments. There is the sames tenacious gene
raj holding of stocks as has been noted for
longtime. The immediate course Of the
speculation may be influenced by the man.
