STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, Sept. 28.-Today's market
for stocks was astonishingly dull at
times, and the total volume of transac-
tons as low as that Of yesterday, and
was smaller than for many months, the
total sales numbering .bout 3H
shares. 1t became evident that yester-
days dullness could not be ascribed to
the Jewish New Year holiday. 1t is in
fact obvious that the large buying in
terest, which has been so powerful a
factor in the recent bull movement, has
retired from the field for a time and
the orders through commission houses,
the medium through which the public at
large operates, have shown correspond
ing falling off. There are some who be-
lieve that the large bull operators have
already Equidated their holdings and
taken their profits. Certain it is that
there was no evidence in today's market
of any heavy offerings of long stock.
Practically all of the professional room
traders have turned bears and their SELL
ing is called short selling. Their most
vigorous attack today was ~tiifectesf
