was narrow and professional again to-
day, the sales footing up 144,256 shares,
of which $500 were Chicago Gas, 1890
Sugar and $500 Burlington and Quincy At
the start the market was rather firm, be-
cause of an adVanve in Chicago Gas to
60 and in American Sugar to 1854. The
buying of the former was by brokers
identified with an operator prominently
connected with pools in the industrias
during the past few years. The advance
in Chicago Gas and Sugar, however
brought out long stock andsthe announce
ment was made that $35O.000 gold had been
withdrawn from the sub-treasury, the
sold out bulls endeavoring to bring about
general decline. The success attending
their efforts was slight and outside of the
industrials, Southern Railway and Rock
Island, the loss in prices was confined to
5S5s, Sugar rs to HAS, Leather preferred
2 to 49, and the other active stocks any
where from "a to &c per cent. Southern
Railway preferred and Rock Island, the
weakest among the railway issues, sold
down 1GI1ls per cent. As a rule, the lowest
figures of the day were made in the last
hours of businetss. There was very little
news after the close to affect prices OF
the $350,000 gold taken for export, 100000
was withdrawn by bullion dealers and
$250000 by coffee importers Sterling ex-
change closed steady in tone and it is be-
heved that further amounts of the metal
will be forwarded later in the week by
commission merchants Speculation closed
about steady In tone. Net changes show
losses of lsdB per cent Southern Rail-
way preferred, Sugar, Erie and General
