QUICK RALLY IN MOST STOCKS.

Apparently Endless Offerings Mt
About 11f-Wheat Closes strong
and Higher-Proyf.ion. Firm.

NEW YORK, September s.-st. Paul
made the market this morning, and
broke 1t this afternoon. Trading was not
on large scale during the day. and all
| interest centered in the meeting Of the
st. Paul directors. TO act on the dividend.
| The rumor-mongers fixed the dividend
rate on the common all the way from
Zl-24S per cent. There was large buying
OF ST. Paul here for London account.
and there was very active trading on the
London curb after the close there ac-
cording to cabled reports. The price was
rushed up 10 1l5. without any attention
being given to warning statements that
very powerful interests in the directorate
were opposed to anything more than the
: 1-2 per cent. rate. When the announce
ment came, at about 2:20 F. NJ, that the
directors had made the semi-annual divi-
dend only 2l-2 per cent. the price drop
ped without check. except for momen-
tary pause at each even number, to ll01-4,
which was 4 81 below the best. Numer-
Gus blocks of many thousand shares were
thrown on the market with precipitate
eagerness. and the market speedily took
on panicky conditions.
There was a quick rally of 1G1 IL per
cent. in those stocks which suffered most
severely, but St. Paul was kept back py
apparently endless offerings at about III,
and closed only 5-S above the lowest,
with a very weak tone. The demoraii-
cation caused by the break in ST. Paul
came on a market showing considerable
strength, and at a point considerably
above yesterdays close.
CALL MONEY EASES OFF.
The rate for call money. after going to
per cent, eased off 10 1-2, under the
influence of the engagement Of 10000 for
import in gold. The duness Of the local
time-money market indicates a convic-
ton that the present stiffness Of rates
will not long continue. On the other
hand, discounts hardened to-day i'm Lon
don. Monetary conditions, however, were
entirely lost sight of in the late demoralI-
zation OF the stock market.
Bonds were dull and firm for most Of
the day, but closed i'm sympathy with
stocks. Total sales, $4,000. United
