was quite brisk for a half holiday. The
movements of prices was irregular.
Disappointing foreign advices in re-
gard to the prices of American stocks
and continued selling in this market
for account Of European dealers ex-
crted an unfayorable influence at the
outset. Very soon, however, strength
developed in the Industrials, while the
railway list exhibited a sagging ten
dency. The fluctuations in prices were
unimportant until near the end Of the
first hour, when the bull leaders took
effective action, and on heavy pur-
chase the market took the up-track.
The market closed irregular at conces-
sions from the top figures, but at gen
eral gains. The railway bonds to-day
exhibited continued strength.
