The Stock Market.

New York, Oct. 12.--The undertone of strength which has been manifest for several days, assumed the upper hand in the stock market to-day. Buy- ing to cover short contracts played no small part in the rise all through the list. It cannot be said that there was any striking indication of an awakened public interest in the market To- days sharp recovery in Northern Pa cific, which extended to 1%, was there fore great relief There was con- spicuous buying also in Union Pacific preferred, the grangers and some of the southern and southwestern roads. Kansas and Texas preferred was conspicuous exception with a net loss of nearly a point. The speculation in Tobacco and Sugar continues active and feverish. Tobacco broke 4ss in the early trading, and Sugar made a sharp recovery of it's recent decline, and while Tobacco rallied to nearly last nights close in the late dealings, the early gain in Sugar was more than wiped out. The market for specialties was thus much unsettled and fell into comparative neglect. But that for railroads was broadened and strength ened, the net gains for many stocks reaching point. There was quite striking movement in such gilt edged issues as Chicago and Alton, the Great | Northern and St. Paul preferred. There was no conspicuous development in the general situation to account for the changed temper in Wall street, unless it might be the continued heavy de- mand for cereals for export and the advancing prices for them in foreign markets. Money conditions in London were also slightly easier, which brought some buying for London account, and there was appreciably evidence of the increased supply of surplus capital here. The closing of the market show ed quite firm tone in spite of weak ness in one or two of the industrials.
