New York, Nov. 5.-To-day'S stock
market was a comparatively tame affair
when contrasted with the exceptional
activity and wid uctuation on yes
terday. The transactions aggregated
only 1926. 37S shares, against BOD. 557 yes
terday, and with n few exceptions the
changes were not greater than occur at
ordinary times. Taken altogether the
tendency was toward a lower range of
values, and the fact that several stocks
displayed great strength al intervals
did not prevent the entire list closing
under last nights final quotations. The
reaction occasioned no surprise for the
reason that current quotations show
large profits to those who bought stocks
a few days prior to the election. 1t is
also to be said that to n certain extent
the decline was forced. III other words

had declared a cash dividend OF 4 per
cent. on the common stock. This, it was
argued. mean that a settlement OF the
war between the trust and the outside
manufacturers was nearing Il conclu-
sion. The stock afterwards broke to 70.
Chicago Gas for q time was another
strong feature. 1t rose from 40 to 713s

finally receded to 1885 &c. The absence
