THE MARKETS.
Wall StrcetReyiew

New York, Aug. 31.-Today's stock mar
ket was characterized by great irregu-
larity, prices of many stocks remaining
remarkably stable, even on large trans
actions, while the price movement of
others was wide and erratic to the last
degree and quite Independent of any gen.
eral inufience or harmony of tendency
with others. Sugar was the sensational
feature and covered a range of nearly
eight points during the day. There was
no news regarding the stock received
during the day that was not known at the
opening of the market. But the Specula-
tive traders drew some deduction from
the facts already known that led to very
excited trading in the stock The specu-
lation turned on the probable benefits to
the industry from the treasury depart
ments Interpretation of the clause of the
tariff bill discriminating againstsugar from
counries that pay an export bounty. The
belief that this clause would be admin
istered so as TO insure the exclusion from
competition of Dutch refined sugars gave
countries that pay an export bounty. The
stock logged along very comfortably on
the up grade to noon, covering about
sensational rush upwards by leaps of 4,
II and even full point at time to 1o51s,
the reaction being comparatively small.
Just in the closing transactions the price
jumped again to 157 and fell back a point.
Total sales were SOS, ,S91 shares.
