Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
NEW YORK, December Q. Opening
prices this morning reflected the presence
OF considerable volume OF commission
orders, and in several instances this de-
mand was especially enthusiastic. London
sold some stock during the opening hour
but the local demand was fully up to the
task of absorbing thess offerings Holiday
dullness Is apparent in the London mar
kets. the derar" FOR home shares having
decreased naticeably.
ttIe srrens, the local bond market
continues to be a feature OF more than or
dfnary significance. Good investment bonds
are scarce at anything like desirable premi-
ums and the market is being carefully
watched for indications of favorable de-
velopments in connection with the low
priced issues.
Recent announcements of the improve
ment in Missouri Pacific's financial con-
dition. followed later by the payment of
its entire Indebtedness to Mr. Sage found
prompt reflection in the market for its seV-
eral bond issues. Dealings of the most lib
eral character advanced prices from per
cent In consols to per cent in collateral
trust IS. The price of the stock was also
advanced per cent, thereby giving to Mis-
souri, Pacific issues most satisfactory
prominence in the days business
The buying of the traction ISSUES attract
ed unusual attention during the opening
hour owing TO sources from which the de-
mand came. Metropolitan was taken in
round amounts for an advance of per
cent. From this point a reaction set in. but
the buying on all concessions was good.
Brooklyn Rapid Transit was also in good
demand, and even Manhattan shared in the
speculative prosperity of its neichbors.
In the street railway department the ac-
tivity was especially confident. and except
for the occasional taking of profits on spec

ments of a reactionary character.
An advance of per cent in American
Sugar was recorded during the opening
hour on a good volume of business. the
buying of these shares is divided between
speculative demand and the covering of
an outstanding short interest.
The covering movement has not assumed
the proportions which usually follows such
an advance in price however, and the con-
clusion follows that the movement in these
shares is not to be wholly one-sided.
An advance in American tobacco was re-
corded during the first hour. but interest
in the property Jagged later in the day.
The trading during the last hour was eX-
ceptfonally strong, especially for the spe-
cialties The Flower stocks were the lead

Fierce Struggle Between the Two

Plucky aR1ders for First
Place in Contest.

NEW YORK, December e.-The struggle
between Miller, and Waller for the first
place In the six-day Bicycle race continued
all night. Miller was leading at o'clock
this morning, but at 5 o'clock Waller was
ive miles anead, having taken advantage
OF Miller's rest interval. Neither Miller nor
Waller had taken any rest to speak of up
to am. Miller having contented himself
with only twenty-four minutes between 4
and . O'Clock, and Waller having been on
the track practically all the time since
O'Clock, his or interval being but for q
moment to arrange some part Of his wheel.
Pierce, on the contrary. took a rest of
nearly an hour and half between 4 and
q o'clock. Seven o'clock found the three
men fighting gamely. Miller had been MAX
ing desperate efforts to catch Waller, and
for seven continuous tenths OF the mile at
one time he had kept the crowd, which
was larger than usual, in continuous up
roar OF applause, yelling and stamping, by
gaining on Waller q tenth of mile, or
one lap of the track. Waller did not let
him do this without working hard for it.
There were other signs that Waller was
wearing out. Twice within a few minutes
he fell ON the track. once taking Miller
with him, and the second time causing Ste
one was seriously hurt
Waller got another fall shortly after 8
o'clock that would have put any ordinary
man in the hospital. His wheel wohbed
while he was half asleep. He fell off and
shot against the inside railing breaking the
stout scantling.
At almost the same moment Aronson fell
about fifty feet behind Waller and smashed
the railing into which he ran. Waller was
carried across the ring and his three train
ers examined him for bruises. He was
found to be very slightly hurt, and he. in
sisted on remounting and continuing the
race. AronSon was also unhurt, and he
went a it again, leading in the sprinting.
Schtnneer dropped out of the race at S:35
a m, with 1,2S4 miles and nine laps to his
credit, His wife and his physician advised
him not to return Schinneer said the pad
spill he was in on Monday had injured l:is

his leg might he stiff for life.

long rest returned about 10 O'Clock. Hale
took a rest of more than an hour. His
trainer said he was changing the gear on
his wheel to a smaller one, and that Hale
would return to the track.
At noon Hale told his trainers that he
would be unable to continue. His hands
are sore and his stomach out of order. He
may be induced to go on the track again.
