New York, Sept 1s.-The tendency Of
the stock market was upward until JUST
near the close, when prices ran off frac-
tionally on moderate sales to realize
profits. The early strength was due to
the announcement of the engagement of
$4,000,000 gold additional for import by Lag
ard Freres of this city, rumors that fur
Their amounts aggregating $l0O0,000 had
been negotiated for and to reports of q
heavy demand for ocean freight room.

ment of the metal is likely to continue
for some time to come. The statement

short interest. Tobacco was marked up

at the same time there were sales to
realize profits. A reaction of a to rs fol-
lowed Sugar Manhattan and the Gran
gers showing the greatest losses. There
was no special pressure to sell, however,
and at the close the market was barely
steady in tone. Net changes show gains
of AG1B per cent. Manhattan and Rock
