New York, Dec. 3-Speculative interest
centers chiefly in the Industrials again to-
day and of these Sugar was the over
shadowing reature. The stock opened at
105iEa106-2,50 shares changing hands
After this, the price bounded up to 10G5s
but the advance brought out an avalanche
of long stock and the shares broke per
cent. to 102k, and closed at 1903, or 2 per
cent. below yesterdays final sale. The
transactions were on a tremendous scale,
footing up 1853, 800 shares in a grand total
of 100000 shares for the entire list. The
early squirt was due to special advices
from Washington to the effect that the
President would not touch upon the trust
in his message. This caused a perfect
rush to cover short contracts, brokers of
a noted plunger being the heaviest buy
ers. The rise brought out round amounts
of long stock, which encouraged
| bears to fresh efforts in this and other
and Chicago Gas all opened firmer, but
later on Tobacco tumbled from S3A to
SO94 and ended at S0A. chicago Gas NOV
ed up to ssh, and fell to 64i4G645s. Trading
in the last named was smaller than for
some time past, owing to the uncertainty
as to the outcome of the Barrow injunc-
ton case, now being argued in Chicago.
The railway list was quiet, but firm, the
highest prices being made after the publ
cation of the Presidents message This
paper was well received in banking and
mendation as to the retirement of the
greenbacks and the issuance of short
term, low-interest bearing bonds in times
of emergency. The gain in prices at this
time was equal to IRd3 per cent, Della
ware and Hudson leading. The efforts
making to advance coal for the rates to
the west helped this stock. Pacific Mail
rose from 305s to 1925 on the announcement
that an agreement with the Panama road
will probably be signed this week The
improvement in the financial situation
abroad and the fact that no gold has been
engaged for export to Europe as yet, had
a stimulating effect on the foreign market
Near the close Sugar ran off to 1925, and
this weakened the remainder of the In
dustrial group. Considering the severity
of the attack on Sugar. the railway list
held remarkably wen. The closing of the
market was irregular in tone. Net
changes show advances of 1s6I5s per cent
Pacific Mail, however, gained 1Ss per cent,
while the lndustrials lost Ad2M per cent
Tobacco was second in point of activity
and figured for 81 800 shares. St. Paul
which was third. was traded in to the ex-
tent of only 14,200 shares Bonds were
firm Sales were l,27S000. The sales of
listed stocks aggregated 12l, lS1 shares, and
of unlisted 16S.523 shares.
