New York, Oct 6-Speculation at the
stock exchange to-day was unusually
quiet the sales of stocks aggregating only
113, 100 shares. The dealings in the bond
department were also light, footing up a
little over $4,000. The share list at the
opening was inclined to sag on weaker
quotations from London, and the reports
from that center of a rather disturbed con-
'dition of affairs because of political condl-
lions. AS a result prices here yielded
about N11 per cent, the Industrial, Inter
nent in the reactionary movement. Fol-
lowing there was a sharp rise in Sugar,
Manhattan, Tobacco and Leather, pre-
ferred but the usually active stocks con-
tinued to sag. The stocks named were as
sisted by special causes In the case OF
Manhattan, a rumor which was SUISSE
ouently denied had a good influence. The
rumor referred to was to the effect that
Manhattan interests were buyers Of Third
avenue Surface car stock for the purpose
of control Sugar moved up little over
a point to Ill on the statement that there
was no basis for the reports OIL troupie
with the American Grocers' Association.
Tobacco gained per cent, TO o112 on COW
ering of short contracts put out on the
passing of dividend a little while ago. In
the afternoon money suddenly advanced
to 70 per cent and this started moderate
foundations all along the line Inc rise III
money was due to the disturbance in loans
incidental to the city tax payments. rms
caused considerable shifting OF can loans
and accounts for the jump in the rate.
Near the close, however the quotations.
dropped back 3d4 per cent. In the late de-
clines. Chicago Gas Changers Readlng
and Manhattan were conspicuous. Inc
decline from the highest point or the aay
was equal to hql&, Manhattan leauIAb,
A favorable development OF the Gay Wd9
continued weakness in Sterling exchange
Tho rcsult Of an increased supply OF COM
mercial acceptances. Rumors OF lurtner
pold imports from Europe az an early day
were revived in consequence, but no con
6rmation can be obtained. Speculation lelt
