New York, Feb. 18.-The stock mar
ket was rather dull throughout to-day
and devoid of special interest. As a
result of the trading prices are pretty
evenly divided between gains and
losses but neither are of much impor-
lance. The closing was moderately
active but heavy in tone. To-day $
bonds operations were quiet and un-
interesting. A firm tone prevailed,
however, and grains were generally
scored. extending to 1h per cent in
