STOCK MARKET DULL.
1T Is ONE OF SPECIALTIEs AND
SHARP DECLINES ARE SHOWN.
FEAR OF MONEY STRIHGENCY.
Confident Assurances That Possi-
billy of II Has Passed, But Mark
feet of These-Wheat Stronger.

NEW YORK, September l3-The mar
ket started off this morning with indica-
tions that the reactionary period had
come to an end. Prices in the railroad list
advanced almost without exception, under
the stimulus OF higher prices for Ameri-
cans in London. and a sharp demand for
Peoples Gas, on reports that the dispute
with the Indiana Gas Company had been
adjusted. Severe depression in some Of
the specialties checked the upward move
ment. The bears sold the list freely. and
their confidence was justified by the re-
newal Of liquidation. induced by the de-
cline of prices There was stubborn re-
sistance TO the decline In some of the
railroad stocks. but prices generally fell
below yesterdays low point, and dulness
interviewed.
The market was one of specialties du-
ring the greater part of the day, and
some sharp declines were shown by quite
a number Sugar was advanced at one
time on the usual buying, in anticipation
Of to-morrow's dividend disbursements,
but dropped suddenly 4 S-s from the top
level in the late dealings. and unsettled
the whole market. Minnesota Iron, Illi-
nOlS steel, ana american Sleel anu wire
suffered neavy losses.
TOUCHING MONEY STRINGENCY.
There were very confident assurances
during the day that the period of posi-
BILE strngency in the money market had
passed. but the marking up of call loans
on the board to 8 per cent. detracted
from the effect Of these assurances.
Sterling Exchange held steady, how
ever. and there IL an undoubted growth
of a belief that the present stiffness OF
call-money rates Is due TO technlcal
causes, the influence Of which is not likely
TO extend far outside the Stock Exchange,
nor 10 endure there.
The bond market was rather neglected.
