MARKET REPORTS.
NEW YORK MARKET.
The Features Of the Days Dealings in All
the Leading Stocks.

New York, Aug l1-Today's bus
mess in the Stock Exchange was the
largest for many months Trading
was very broad and comprehensive
and the tone of speculation extremely
varied, The general undertone contin-
ued Enthusiastically strong The de-
cline in prices was not to proceed 10
any great length before dullness en-
sued. and in short time a renewed
demand would carry prices upwards
again. generally on q much smaller
volume Of business than that on which
they had declined
business was so large and was 50
widely distributed that movements OF
special stocks had little influence on
the general list and the market at
times showed irregularitv
Considering the large total of the
days transactions net changes are
small Orders placed with commission
houses to buy stocks were larger. this
morning, and more generally distribut-
ed than at any time since the rise SGT
in This outsidps,iemand was fed With
steady stream of stocks which OBJ
liberated the opsring gain before tn,
end of the first hour
y large part of the outside orders
especially in the Changers. We're at
tributed To Western accounts. This
buying was indicted by the uncxpcct-
edly favorable character of the gov
eminent crop report.
The Industrial spacialties We're ir-
regular moving up ana down without
regard to the gGprral course of prices
Prices were not maintained at the best
in any case, hui the Railroads al
showed good resistance to pressure
and closed above the lowest. Net
gains of consequence were shown in q
few eases.
There We're heavy offerings of bonds
at times. especially OF recently reor-
ganized roads. n considera bic part oil
the selling being attributed to for
ei9n account. United States new A.
coupon, declined 4 and the IS wher
issued advanced 4 in the bid price.
