NEW YORK, Oct. 4.-For some time past
it has been the fashion at the stock ex-
change to sell little Chicago Gas for a
turn. Today intimations were received
from the west that the Universal and Chi.
cago Gas companies had reached an AMIGA
BILE settlement. This Immediately upset
the calculations of the traders, who i'm
mediately started to cover. As a result
the stock bounced up from 70 to 73T on
transactions of SO, 500 shares. Sugar, which
has been the leader of the market hereto
fore in point of activity, but the changes
in the shares were far less important. The
stock held at S3%aS37s and closed at s5%
Distilling and Cattle Feeding rose from
~ to 105sa9A. In railroad stocks firmsr
tone prevailed and the covering movement
which was noted early in the week made
further progress. and in the closing hours
the railway list was strong. The improve
ment in these stocks ranged from d to tx
per cent. The market closed firm and u
to ~ per cent. higher. Total transactions
were l94, ,06l shares.

hint, but not the pass.-Detroit Free Press.
