| New York, Sept 10.-Speculation at the
| Stock Exchange to-day was irregular and
rather feverish This is only natural, in
| view of yesterdays heavy realzations
and the efforts of the professional opera
| tors to bring about reaction which they
| claim, is dong over due. An advanced
Bank of England rate of discount to 21s
per cent. which raised the price of eagles
| in the London market and resulted in
sitter discounts outside of the bank, cou-
pied with lower prices for American Sc
curities abroad, all assisted the reaction
airy move. The action of the bank, it was
argued, would check gold shipments, but
the reverse proved true, and the pur-
chases of eagles and bars at the Bank of
England for America to-day footed up
1863, 900 At home the bank troubles at
New Orleans and the report of the agri
cultural department for September on
cotton, were the unfavorable develop
ments. The favorable news of the day,
other than the engagements of gold, were
the report of the St. Paul road for the
first week of the current month, and the
declaration Aof the usual dividends by the
directors of the road. AS stated opera
tors were bearishly inclined, and prices
gradually yielded under moderate pres
sure At intervals the downward tendency
was checked, but in the final trading the
market was weak in tone. The loss in
prices ranged from 4 to 21a per cent. To
bacco, Sugar. Rock Island, Pacific Mail,
Manhattan, Louisville and Nashville,
Tennessee Coal and Reading were promi-
nent in the reaction. London houses were
credited with sales of 10000 to 5000
shares, principally st. Paul and Louis
Vile and Nashville. The last named was
sold on the damage to cotton crops and
trade Generalization in the south. Specu-
lation left off weak in tone. Net changes
show declines of Aq2h per cent. In the
specialties Consolidated Gas fell 2 to 145,
and later rose to 14S; Illinois Steel de-
clined to S79S715; big -Four preferred
jumped to 80. Total sales were 1S1, 154
shares including 1880 Sugar, $500 st.
Paul. 70 800 Louisville and Nashville, and
II, 800 Burlington and Quincy. The bond
market was dull and weak; total sales
