lowest point OF the Gay "I'ru was III many
cases a. much as one point below last
nights level
The bears had hand IN the decHhe
but the demand from shorts to cover was
light ami rallies IN the general list were OF
small proportions
The movement of railroads genSraly
through the morning was exceedingly
small either way, except In a few mo-
Vidual cases. Cnlcago ana eastern In
nois was pushed up over TWO points
above par. but relapsed nearly 3 points.
The movement Of the specialues IN the
first hour was a good deal mixed. Con
eolidated Gas and Tennessee Coal shoOt-

Brooklyn Transit and sugar were heaNy
in tone.
Shortly after noon there was rise OF
points in Omaha 3Ss in Northwestern
and nearly two points in New York cen

much-talked of trans-conunentat con-

The gains which had been extended IN
some cases to nearly point, were quick
ly wiped out and the general level of the
market fell below last night Brooklyn
Transit dropping two points. Central Pa
cific lost one and half. The market was
very hstless during the last hour ana
closed generally easy at an average de-
cline. London sent higher prices ana
bought here to a moderate extent but
this support was without avail TO sustain
the market. The fear OF an unfaYorable
bank statement was a heavy weight on
the market. The New York clearing
house banks have lost heavily during the
week both on interior movement and to
