WEDNESDAY, OCT. 20.
A further advance in the prices for securities
to-day was coincident with moro extensive
dealings. 1t has been evident for several days
past that the amount OF stocks Offering or likely
TO come upon the market was comparatively
small. and in consequence efforts to depress
prices have been futile. II not actually
Improbable. This situation was apparent
ly taken advantage of to-day by several pro.
fessional operators. who seemed to experience
no difficulty in forcing their opponents to come
into the market as fairly heavy buyers to close
short contracts. At the extreme advance in
prices recent buyers OF various shares appeared
to be ready to supply the demand, and,
in consequence, tho entire list receded
from the best figures during the last
half hour. Notwithstanding the final re-
action, the list. with few exceptions, closed
higher than yesterday. The exceptions referred
to were unimportant. Chicago Gas attained
first place in respect to activity. and st. Paul
also exceeded Sugar refining in point of activ-
ity. Other noteworthy transactions were in Rock
Island. Louisville and Nashville, Manhattan
Railway, Northern Pacific preferred. New York
Central, Chicago Great Western, Pittsburg.
Cincinnati, Chicago and st. Louis. and Union
Pacific. The last named WAS dealt In to-day for
the first time, with two installments OF SIS each

and Pullman's Palace Car at an advance of 2ia

The market as a whole can accurately be de-
scribed as strong and fairly active. Attempts
were made in various quarters TO deny or belit-
tie the importance of the action OF European
bankers who are virtually borrowing money in
this country by compelling their correspondence
here 10 hypothecate commercial acceptances in
stead OF sending them forward for collection.
The significance OF this movement is not
gagged by the amount Of bills that have
been hypothecated. but by the fact that
Europe finds IL cheaper to borrow money here
than in its own markets. The actual amount in.
volved is OF comparatively little Importance.
The news affecting values was meagre. hut
fresh importance was attached to the considera.
tions that have existed for some time. and

railway. aud that portion Of tho line Ia
Arizona between Nogales and Benson

roma railway. The time Is rapidly ap
preaching when the bonds Of the Mo

time arrives n settlement must b
reached by the two companies
Tho exchange Of property In Ar.zoni
aud New Mexico in payment for th
Mojave line was selected A. the onl,
