New York, Sept 6.-To-days market
was variable and irregular az all times,
but was more or less under the oontin-
uing influence of the shrinking surplus
reserves of the banks and the sitter rates
| of money. Speculation was almost at a
standstll and the market was confined
largely to special stocks, the trading be
ing highly professional throughout. The
opening was higher, in sympathy with
London Ii quickly became evident how
ever, that no outside interest had been
enlisted here. and the professional bears
attacked the list in weak spots, notably
Manhattan. Peoples Gas and Tobacco and
soon wiped out the earlier gains A num-
Der of individual stocks were showing
conspicuous strength all day and a rally
in Peoples Gas drove the bears to cover
ana made them more cautious. The
strength became general in the late deal
ings, under the leadership of St. Paul,
and the close was strong at the best prices
of the day and generally at level above
Fridays close. The fear of interrupted
traffic through yellow fever quarantine
was a factor in the early weakness, es-
pecially in Southern Railway preferred,
| but at the same time there was an adj
vance of 2%s In Illinois Central and con-
| spicuous tirmness in Louisville on the
| prospect of resumption of Havana traffic.
| The dominant factor in the situation con-
| tinues to be the absorption of money by
| the United States treasury on account of
| subscriptions to the new bonds. Call
money continues quite firm with 8 per
| cent. the ruling rate and with no appar-
ent effect from the treasury announce
| ment that the currency Is. due Jan l,
| next, would be redeemed at once 1t is
| somewhat remarkable that with money
| holding firm a a level markedly higher
| than the ruling rate in London and with
| exchange falling under the pressure of
| grain and cotton bills there should yet be
| an easing of money rates in London. The
| phenomenon is the more remarkable, as
| there was continued buying of stocks In
! New York for London account.
The condition of the money market had
| its reflection also in the extreme dullness
| of the trading in bonds but prices were
in the main firmly held. Total sales
! $2'440OO0. United States Old As registered
and the 5s advanced a and the new As
! and the IS, when issued sc in the bid
| price The total sales of stocks were 325,-
| 700 shares
