NEW YORK. May 2I:-The operators
induced to take the bear side on account
of the recent dullness were the victims of
a political report which was circulated in
dustriously that a leading presidential can
didate would declare his position on the
currency question today personally or by
proxy. The rumorS were unfounded THE
bears, however. had taken the matter
the professional operators making the
operation as expensive as possible by bid
ding up the prices for a while. At the
outset the market developed fair activity
but the buying movement was soon ex-
hausted and relapse to the semi-stagna-
tion that has recently characterized the
speculation occurred. The market opened
firm, but soon slumped off in sympathy
with Sugar and Manhattan. against which
pressure was soon made. Both stocks lost
nearly point. but at the low level sup
port was accorded and a rather agrees
sive upward swing took place on the polit-
fcal rumorS before mentioned. Sugar and
Manhattan gained ia and Colorado Fuel
and Missouri Pacific per cent. The mar
ket otherwise was without special feature
The rates of foreign exchange were slight
~ higher and gold bills against impend-
ing shipments are understood to be offer
ing. 1t is considered certain that at least
one million in gold will go out on Satur-
day, either to Berlin or Paris and most
probably to the first mentioned center.
The speculation in the late dealings was
somewhat irregular with the fluctuations
very narrow. The closing, however, was
firm at fractional gains generally. Con-
siderable strength was displayed in spots
in the bond market, sales aggregating 81
032. 600. Government bonds were neglected,
but were slightly better.
