New York, Oct. 1.-Speculation at the
Stock Exchange was quiet again to-day,
but the tendency of prices was upward.
After period of hestancy at the opening,
prices moved up briskly in the case OF
the Anthracite Coalers, on the reiteration
of the old reports of a combination
of the companies for a better maintenance
of rates and for the regulation of the out
put. The steady advance in the price. OF
the product of late strengthens the be-
lief of an early consummation of the deal
and IL IS stimulating purchases of the
stock To-day Lackawanna jumped 10
ia; Delaware and Hudson, ! to 1874: Jer-
sey Central, ~ to 1l424, and Reading, ]
10 p. Subsequently Reading ran off q
to 2lss. The general list moved up in
sympathy, although the Industrials were
also fayor3bly Influenced by special
causes. In the case of Sugar, which rose
to 1852. improved trade conditions were
cited as the cause for the advance. Chi
cago Gas gain of nearly per cent. to
7Oss, was due to reports that the new own
ers were making good progress in their
work OF reorganization of the property
in line with the laws of Illinois. The Off
cial confirmation of the settlement of the
Distilling and Cattle Feeding troubles,
which reached here by way of Chicago,
brought about rally to PAS in that stock.
A reduction in the posted rates of sterling
exchange of y to $46lh and A.SSj5 dur
ing the afternoon started up a fresh de-
mand from the shorts. II has been fash
teA-e~AAt
theory that heavy gold exports were i'm
minent. To-days reduction in rates, how
ever. which was due to an increase in the
supply of cotton bills, has caused a change
in sentiment so far as gold Shipments are
concerned, and the bears We're endeavor-
ing to take back their contracts all day.
Inc market closed firm, with prices any
where from "A to per cent. higher on the
day, the latter in Lackawanna. Total
sales were 159,525 shares, including % 400
SHARES Dlstillers; 1900 shares Reading;

footed up $1010,000.
