THE MARKETS.
Wall Street Review

New York, Oct. 6.-The bulls maintained
a waiting attitude for the most part in
today's market and the bears were sue
cessful in shaking out further stop orders
and depressing the general level of the
market a further sharp fraction. There
seems to be long stock to sell and The
bears were thus encouraged to continue
their efforts The lowest prices of the
day were made early in the final hour,
but the last half hour of trading saw a
steady hardening of prices which mate
rally reduced the net losses. All the fac
tors in the general situation indicated a
continued increase in actual values and
there was no cause for the decline except
the exaggerated level of prices which has
been attained. One of the features of the
day was large buying of Pennsylvania
and a sharp rise in its price. Total sales
800, 500 shares.
