New Yc-k. 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 100000 gold additional for import
by Lazard Freres, of this city, rumors
that further amounts. aggregating a
million. had been negotiated for. and to
reports of heavy demand for ocean
freight room. which indicates that the
import movement of the metal is likely
to continue for some time to come. The
statement of the Bureau OF Statistics
for the past eight months just publish
ed is a highly favorable exhibit and
STRENGTHENS the belief now prevalent in
financial circles that the import move

destined to assume large proportions.

$4,000 shares were traded in. Lower
Wall street interests were again buy
ers of the stock. and this alarmed the
short interest. Tobacco was marked up

tion of dividends. The Changers, Man

Near the close the inquiry from the
shorts fell Off and at the same time there
were sales to realize profits. A reac-
