New York, Aug. 13.-The animation OF
to-day's stock market was far less than
that of last Saturday, and the net gains
on the days transactions were much less
striking. The actual signing of the peace
protocol brought no enthusiastic buying,
but on the other hand il brought no real
izing sales such as are likely to occur on
the elimination of an event heralded and
discounted. There was a large and steady
demand throughout the short session of the
exchange. which held prices quite firmly
throughout the list.
Active buying in a few stocks was con-
spicuous, especially Northern Pacific com
mon, which added another point 10 its
price in the course of the day The Grang-
ers were strong and Union Pacific showed
an advancing tendency. The Southern raft
roads continued somewhat depressed, Ow-
ing to the yellow fever case reported at a
town in Louisiana. Even in the absence
of an epidemic the precautionary quaran-
tines are likely to interfere seriously with
railroad traffic. Kansas and Texas preferr-
ed dropped off a point under the influence
Very notable advances were shown by
the Rubber stocks, Tobacco and New York
Air brake.
The large decrease of 81, 7S1 100 IN the sur
plus reserves Of the banks was without
effect. The closing was generally firm, only
a few stocks showing slight recessions
from the best.
The dealings in stocks this week rose
fully a million shares over those of last
week, but are still almost million shares
below those of the corresponding week Of
last year. The Financial Chronicles com
piiauon shows that the forty-seven rail-
roads reporting earning for the first week
. in August show an increase of 10 per
cent. over last year. The general i'm
provement in business reported from all
branches Of trade beginning with the iron
trade has gtven strength TO the Industrial
stocks as wen as the railroads. The money
market has taken on a somewhat tirmer
tone.
There has been some increased demand
from interior points for New York money,
but the week shows net receipts in favor
of New York still United States Is have
advanced II in bid price
