The One Real Feature on Wall

The only redeeming feature of specu-
lation at the stock exchange today
was squirt in American tobacco and
Sugar in the late trading. The move
mentS in these stocks saved the day
from being one of the dulleSt on rec
ord. Fluctuations at the close of bust
ness were merely nominal, covering a
range of only 1sQ1a per cent outside OF
a few stocks. The declaration of a 2
per cent dividend on Tobacco pre-
ferred and 3 per cent in the common
stock started up a little speculation
in the latter, although as soon as the
stock advanced realiZatiOnS seemed to
be in order. The real feature of the
day was the execution of buying orders
for considerable amounts in Sugar dur
ing the last hour of business, which
carried that stock up from 1101s to 112.
Manhattan, after selling down IS to
SS1ls, rose to 80; Consolidated Gas rose
1, while Delaware & Hudson declined
2 per cent. The jump in Sugar failed
to stimulate dealings in the promi-
nent railway stocks such as the Gran
gers, Chicago Gas, and Louisville &
Nashville, and these shares closed with
net losses of A@5s per cent for the
day. Speculation closed strong for
Sugar and firm for the remainder of
