30 far as can be learned. there Is no basis
whatever for these reports. The fact that tho
now Union Pacific securities are now being is-
sued appeared to encourage trading in all Of
the existing securities and In contracts for tho
new securities whom issued. It 10 Significant
that Kansas Pacific consols have advanced
rapidly on heavy transactions during the last
week or ten days and that Congress is taking
no steps to help the Government to carry out It's
policy to bid for the subsidised portion OF tho
Kansas Pacific line at the adjourned foreclosure
sale.
Ali Of the usually active stocks, such as the
Changers. Northern Pacific Issues. Manhattan
Railway and Sugar Refining, were dealt in on q
fairly large scale. The last named. however,
was comparatively quiet and made no progress
in either direction. OF the local traction
stocks Metropolitan Railway was exceptionally
strong throughout. but Brooklyn Rapid Tran
cit was rather heavy after tho carly dealings,
although officers OF the company estimate that
the arrangement permitting the company to
run its cars over the bridge will increase Its
gross earnings fully $1,000 a day. In New
York Central there appeared to be some roal-

moro accurate to say that the market for
1t reflected the proft.taking at the end of last
week. OF the usually less active stocks Illinois
Central was In unusual demand. presumably
because to-day's buyers will collect tho seventy
first scmi.annunl dividend Of 2la y cent, for
which tho transfer books of the company close
tomorrow.
There was o revival Of interest in q number
OF stocks that have long boon dormant, among
them Baltimore and Ohio. O., c.. @. and st.
Louis. Fort Worth and Rio Grando, United
States Leather preferred, and many others
that wero dealt In to the extent Of only
q few hundred shares. 1t is worth noting
that some Of those last referred to scored
net gains ranging from 2 to 3 y cent. In
this category were L~ackawanna, O., c.. O. and
st. Louis preferred. Great Northern preferred,
New York and Now Haven and other dividend
paying stocks that are quoted infrequently.
The volume of commission business In stocks as
well as in bonds was unusually large. Tho
Street appeared to DO Indifferent to tho
rather apathetio attitude OF London as
reflected In arbitrage transactions, but
seemed to attach o good deal Of Importance to
the prompt defeat Of the Teller resolution in the
lower house Of CONGRESS. Notwithstanding the
small volume of foreign arbitrage transactions,
London advices tell of an increasing interest In
American securities at that centre. Tho closing
was In the main strong, though at recessions
from the best prices, on account of sales to real
izo profits.

The prominent feature of to-day's security
market was It's breadth. The dealings in both
stocks and bonds wcro unusually heavy, but tho
distribution OF the transactions was moro signif.
icant than the volume OF business. 1t Is also
TO be noted that in no quarter did tho market
appear TO be forced. There doubtless was n GER
tain amount of manipulation In some stocks.
but II WAS overshadowcd and counted for little
In the zrcat mass OF genuine dealings. A num-
Der OF stocks that havo been comparatively
neglected for a LONG time camo TO tho front and
made exceedingly good records. Chief among
these was Chesapeake and Ohio, which
led the list in respect to activity. ana
of the active stocks enjoyed tho great
est net advance. Next to 1t in activity
and strength were Louisville and Nash
Vile and Peoples Gas. Tho market for the first
was stimulated by reports that the company
will soon announce Its refundinF plan. whilo
that for Peoples Gas was apparently Influenced
by Trustworthy advices that the forthcoming
statement OF the company will show that 1t Is
earning fully v cent. upon its stock.
The revival OF activity in Chesapeake and
Ohio was attributed TO q published report that
the virtual consolidation Of the New York Cen

in cotton to-day. What little trading there was was
In the main OF q local, featureless character. Tho
fluctuations In prices were confined within narrow
limits, and at the close they were practically un-
changed from Saturdays hnal quotations. A lower
market IN Liverpool and a deere aSed demand for
spot cotton there, together with larger receipts at tho
ports than had been expected, caused a SLIGHT decline
early in the day. But the offerings were quickly alb
sorbed, and tho loss In prices was trining. There
was no significance atttchod to the large movement
TO the poris to-day. ON tho last day of the
month the receipts are alw ays large. and though the
unexpectedly heavy movement to-day may bring the
total up 10 last weeks movement the receI pts for tho
balance OF the week, II is commended, will be smaller
than on the corresponding days last week. The esti.
mate for New Orleans tomorrow is 1000 to 5000
bales. against 10. 5u7 on the Same day last week. Tho
demand for spot cotton at tho South continues good
at firm prices. The general situation shows no I'm.
pOrtant change. The speculation continues dull, but
an ultimate revival attended by a sharp advances In
prices Is confidently expected. The dry goods mar.

no serious consequences were looked
