and professional again to-day, the
sales footing up 144,256 shares, of which 80, 900
were Chicago Gas, $4,000 Sugar and 1890 Burling-
ton and Quincy. At the start the market was
rather firm because of an advance in Chicago Gas
to so and in American Sugar 10 1854. The buy
ing of the former was by brokers identified with an
operator quite prominently connected with pools
in the industrias during the past few years. The
advance in Chicago Gas and Sugar, however
brought out long stock, and the announcement was
made that S350000 gold had been withdrawn from
the sub-treasury, the Sodout bulls endeavoring TO
bring about general decline. The success at
tending their efforts slight, and outside OF the
induStrials, Southern Railway and Rock Island
the loss in prices confined to the fractions.
