New York, Sept 1.-THE stock market
! was quiet and irregular to-day. The
| transactions were only 124,134 shares and
in this st. Paul represented 29,7O0 shares,
| sugar 1900 and Burlington and Quincy
| Il, 900. No other stock in the list figured
for as much as 10000 shares. At the open
ing an advance of a per cent. took place
decline soon followed. and the market
| ruled rather weak until late in the after
| noon, when a general advance ensued
/ The advance was not maintained, and a
decline scored. The weakness was due to
belief that the Bank of England rate OF
| discount would be advanced on Oct. and
also the failure of a big dry goods firm in
| Philadelphia. Subsequently the losses re-
| ported were regained, and there was some
| buying in the belief of big sound money
victory in Maine. Net changes show losses
| of AM5s per cent, outside of Northern
| Pacific preferred Northwest and Man
haitian, which gained 3sd5h per cent. To-
bacco, however, lost 12s per cent In the
| inactive issues Minnesota Iron dropped
to per cent. and rallied to 1872 per cent.
Bonds were dull. Sales were $643,OOO.
