and declines were fractional.
The evening times., 1898-12-19

Sugar was very weak again today fall
ing in the first hour two points below
the low record for last week. There is
little to say as to the Sugar situation.
The stock is so tied up in the hands of
the manipulators that its price is sent
up or down much as they see fit. The
Sugar Trust can make enough on the
fluctuations to balance any reasonable
loss in the sugar business, a thing in
which it has the advantage over it's COM
petitors.

Northern Pacific securities have been
among the dullest on the list since the
declaration of the dividend last week.
This is apparently due to the general re-
alization of the fact that all the possible
bull news for some time to come is now
out. There was some selling short of the
stocks Saturday and it may be continued
again today and this week. Union Pa
cific on the other hand is active, per-
haps because of the persistent rumors
that this road is to be the successful
bidder for Chicago and Alton.

The evening times., 1898-12-19

The market this morning was much
like that of Saturday, with heavy realiZ-
ing and prices a little off in many secLri-
ties. 1t was Irregular, however, and one
or two stocks were put up after the first
hour Opinions continue widely different
as TO the probabilities for this week and
next, but perhaps the most careful crit
ics hope for a recession of prices before
the new year. Cuthbert Mills, who has
been one of the strongest bulls and who
has been right in most of his sugges-
tons, says this morning that while high
er prices later are certain a recession is
due now after the rapid advance of the
past two weeks. Other careful observers
would look with the same favor on such
a recession. There has seldom been such
a continuous movement upward with no
decline whatever in all the history of the
New York Stock Exchange.
There have never been prices approach
ing the present level since the great
boom times of 1850 and 1881. This, how
ever, does not necessarily mean that they
may not go higher. But even if the top
has not been reached the technil condi-
| tion of the market needs reaction.

large private sales of the stock in addi-

to warrant almost anything that is
claimed for the Federal Steel at this. but
if there is a reaction this week or next
they will go with the market undoubtedly.
