NEW YORK STOCK EXCHANGE
NEW YORK. Sept. 6.-Tuday's stock
market was variable and irregular at

time there was an advance of 23-S in

The dominant factor in the situation
continues to be the absorp ion of money
by the inited States Treasury on ac-
count of subscriptions to the new

greater finish and mastery than Mr..

serving of praise than any combination
appearing here this season. This contrib
uted in no srian degree to the smoothncss
of the performance and Mr.. Miller's e.
ception, which was so hearty that he
