Stocks-The stock market moved in
an uncertain manner to-day and left
off generally lower with the declines
most accentuated in the coalers. Con-
solidated Gas, Sugar and American
Spirits Commission house business
was small and London and number OF
professionals realized profits on stocks
bought at the low figures yesterday.
Much of the buying appeared to be
covering of shorts. The early trading
continued the strength of yesterdays
closing, but realizing and sales on the
theory that the recovery had been too
rapid took the snap out of the market.
The weakness of the coalers was on
heavy sales by prominent holder who
had been carrying a long line Of these
properties. Disappointment was ex-
pressed in some quarters that the New
Jersey Legislature has been adjourned
for some time. The steel and wire
stocks displayed firmness on the belief
that negotiations were pending to con-
sOlidate number of these properties.
Although nothing positive as to the
details could be learned it was said that
capitalization of over half a billion
dollars was contemplated. The appli-
cation of American Steel and Wire to
be listed by the exchange, together
with dividend gossip, was an aid to the
stock. Brooklyn Rapid Transit fuc-
tuated early and closed with over
point advance. Peoples Gas and Pa
cific Mail were also strong. The gen.
eral railway list was fractionally low
er. Consolidated Gas recovered some
what on covering, but on the increased
cutting Of gas prices again broke sever
al points and closed nearly two off on
the day. The arrangement TO retire
the first preferred stock of Minneapolis
and st. Paul caused a rise of over
points in the second preferred The
closing Of pool accounts in American
Spirits and Sugar was said to account
for the weakness in these properties.
The market closed weak
Most of the prominent bond issues
scored Improvements to-day with the
advances quite marked in some cases.

The Lowell Ledger says. relative to
the lease OF water power TO the Citizens
Light Co. Of Belding: THE municipal
plant has now single waterwheel cap
able of furnishing about 800 horse pow
er, with the anticipated additional
head, which is probably amply sufficient
for present and future wants in Lowell.
The Beldiug people will put in their
own water wheel and make all other
necessary extensions and alterations at
the plant and run their own line to Beld-
ing. Lowell is to be at no expense ex-
cept, possibly $3.50 or $500 for raising an
additional head of water. The present
help at the plant has plenty OF time and
can take care of the additional machln-
cry without any increase of expense,
and this extra labor goes in with the
contract and will be done by Lowell as
at present. For this service Bedding
people are to pay $1,000 a year for five
years and 81 $50 year for the following
Eve years. and they acquire no property
rights, except as to service"
