SJocks-The most notable feature of
the stock market to-day was the
sJrong rally in the last fifteen minutes
of trading. After o'clock the bears
started a raid APPARENTLY with an ag-
gressive determination to shake out
weakly margined holdings and to
reach stop loss orders. They seemed
to be succeeding admirably in fore
ing down prices, declines ranging from
one to TWO points all through the list.
but the Appearances of support at the
low level led to a covering movement
which became a rush, and the closing
vas very like a rout Of the bears.
Substantial recoveries were scored
very generally and in a large number
Of cases earlier declines were entirely
wiped out The market was one of
ups and downs all day, the opening
showing numerous signs of heayiness
in spite of a higher range of prices re-
ported from London. The bulls
promptly offered support and rallied
the market, holding their advantage
up to noon, when a tendency to real
ize sent prices downwards again. The
Cuban situation discouraged aggres-
siye tactics on the part Of the bulls,
the professional traders being disposed
to realize all day. There was de-
crease in the volume of both also, and
a falling off in the outside interest.
The declines, however, brought out
good buying. Michigan Central,
Northwest and Omaha showed special
signs Of strength and the local street
railroad companies also advanced
quite vigorously Union Pacific secur-
tiles were all quite strong, the advance
apparently being due TO a belief that
he reorganization had concluded TO
secure the Kansas division even at the
governments own terms. Great
Northern preferred was conspicuous
for a reaction of nearly points from
its recent remarkable advance. Pull
man was marked UP 31a points on
small transactions, and Rubber pre-
ferred scored a sharp advance. London
bought stocks here on balances. Mon
ey continued TO rule below IL per
cent for call loans, and there were re-
ports Of large loans for a year at 31a
per cent. The withdrawal Of the ten
per cent installment of the govern
ment's deposit of Union Pacific pay
ment was reflected in credit balance
at the clearing house for the sub
treasury of $685.. 100.
The sub-treasury has been having a
daily debit balance at the clearing
house Of $500 900 or upwards for some
time past. The plethora Of money was
not appreciably relieved by the opera
ton. Sterling exchange hardened an
additional fraction. The current de-
mand for exchange is believed to be
due to some large financial operations
involving settlements abroad
The speculative bonds showed re-
dictionary tendency in sympathy with
stocks. but prices OF bonds for the
most part held firm. Total sales 81
$50 900.
