New York, Sept. 17.-Business at the
stock exchange was less active to-day, the
sales of stocks footing up only 25S,S4i
shares, against 449,399 shares yesterday.
The transactions in the Railway bond de-
partment were on smaller scale, amount
ing to Sl,797 900, against 81 600 yester-
day. The course of prices, however, was
upward throughout, save for slight de-
cline in the early dealings, due to a raid
on Rock Island. which carried that stock
down from Is TO 1914. The change in sem
timent and the improvement in prices
which followed the break noted was due
to the light engagements of gold, only
$500, 600 having been taken. The condition
of the sterling exchange market, some
foreign buying of ST. Paul and other
stocks and the further advance in COM
mercial prices announced from Philadei-
phia These favorable developments lea
to a general covering movement and an
advance of Il to 35s per cent. was re-
corded. The greatest gains were made
by Jersey Central. Reading, Delaware
