NEW YORK. August 2S.-Stocks to-day
showed some slight Improvement. both
In volume OF business and I'm price. The
transactions in stocks aggregated l3ol6i
shares, and in railroad and miscellaneous
mortgages. $1,000. These totals in ordi-
nary times would be considered Of insig-
nihcant proportions, but they make quite
a comparison with the dealings on pre-
vlous days Of the week. and gave the
brokers hope Of better things. The influx
OF gold was the dominating influence. the
engagements since the Improvement start
ed out ten days ago footing up nearly
Sl2OO0,O00. Better still. the foreign ex-
change market is demoralized. and every
thing points to a continuance of the
movement OF the yellow metal from Eu-
rope to the United States. The Bank OF
England has raised the price Of bar gold,
but this has been Offset by A further re-
ductiJn in posted rates for exchange here.
Predictions OF lower rates for money
next week were current and they seem
TO have some basis. To-day the rates
ranged from 6 to 10 per cent, but the
bulk Of the business was transacted at Z
this way. and money less stringent. ope-
rators were inclined to branch out a
little on the long side OF the account.
while the bears were dis! osed TO cover
their short lines. London also took more
interest I'm our market, and bought st.
Paul and Louisville and Nashville. The
advance I'm the general list was equal to
1-4G5-S per cent. Jersey Central. Man
