New York. May 1O.-The transactions in
stocks to-day reached the enormous total
of 5SS,SS shares, while the dealings IN
bonds footed up s., 697 900. This is the
largest days business in years. The buy
ing was Of the best character, London and
the commission houses being the largest
purchasers. Trading for outside account
was on a tremendous scale, and, in fact
it was the buying that defeated the efforts
of the sold out bulls to bring about re-
action. The offerings of the professionals
were heavy. and at times It looked as If
the top notch had been reached, but in
variaby, fresh buying orders were put in
and the market resumed its upward
! course. London, as of late. was heavy
buyer, its purchases being estimated at
over 5000 shares. 1t is difficult to OBJ
tain the amount of bonds bought. but
| the best information Is that the purchases
to-day for European account will reach
at least 100000 par value. The interna-
tlOnal STOCKS ulSpldytu the greatest
strength. st. Paul, Louisville and Nash
Vile Burlington and Quincy, Chesapeake
and Ohio and Atchison advanced sharply
The last named figured for 1900 shares
| and touched g. The Coalers, especially
Reading and Jersey Central, were in de-
mand. The report that the Jersey Cen
tPal interests had purchased the Reading
were again in circulation. A director OF
| the Jersey Central however, stated that
| there was no truth in the story. on this
| Jersey Central ran off from lOO1s to 9Sls
| and Reading from % to 1913 Chicago Gas
/ jumped 2is to 1874 on a report that Gov
! Altgeld had signed the frontage bill. Sugar
was erratic, ranging between ll3l2 ana
| 1147k closing at 1875. Near the close there
| was some good buying OF Louisville ana
Nashville, St. Paul Distillers and Read
! ing, and in consequence the closing was
